In need of an OD cable

[imported_v12lincoln]

I need an OD cable for my 41 Packard business coupe, Or is there a way to replace the cable??

I had a discussion yesterday with a gentleman about the same issue. I have a 1947 Clipper 6 and have an overdrive transmission and driveshaft I wish to put in it. The cable I have is not serviceable. He suggested going to the parts store and getting a power take off cable and adding the original ends to the new cable.

I have had cables made up by a business which supplies logging companies with wire rope cables. If you could locate a business which deals in this type of product possibly even a farm supply. I am reasonably certain that they could attach a new cable in you still have the ends from the old one

Depending on the condition of your old parts you can replace the ss rod.

If you have a cable an in that frozen stuck, soak it in diesel for about a month, then everyday take it out and work from one end getting a little movement out of it, It take about another month to free it up. I had to do this with and NOS cable i bought a few years back. The under dash head is the hard part to find, don't throw away anything you have.
