So, I spend WAYYYY to much and bought a Lokar :bling: throttle cable (I didn't buy it for the bling) and it BROKE.



Who else (what brands) might make something like this that I can get to replace my over priced piece of Lokar broken-ness?

Yeah, lokar sucks in my experience... maybe try the stock throttle cable from the rig you pulled the motor out of?

Virtually no aftermarket manufacturers have the resources to test like the OEM does. Especially for endurance or longevity.

I'd strongly suggest getting a stock cable from the junkyard. Perhaps with a new core from the dealer (or just lube the old one).
