Hello dear boatsmen

I just bought a Teleflex cable for a very modest price - but it is about a
meter (3') too long.
Has any of you DIY types tried shortening the coil or rod end of a
Teleflex
cable?
And how did it turn out?
Dos and don'ts very much appreciated.


Since you got a great deal on the cable its easy. If you had paid full
price I couldn't help.

1. Goto Ebay.
2. Click on Sell.
3. List cable for a modest profit.
4. Search for Teleflex cable terms "3' shorter than mine."
5. Click on buy.
6. Pocket the difference.

See? Them Bass Boat guys know about things like teleflex cables :-)

Cheers,

Bruce

Been a while since I checked this group. Figured you would be the one to
appreciate my humor if anybody did though. ;^)
