Shift Cable Repair

If you have more money than time, Imperial Services sells new shift cables for $195, but then us cheap Mopar bastards would be driving Mustangs.


stay away from Imperial Services.... not reliable... as they are not interested to correct their mistakes. Got a wrong shift-cable from them (cost´s me round about 350 Dollars to have it in my hands here in Germany) the delivered cable is exactly one inch to long (cable housing is correct).... S.C. from Imperial stated that they made a mistake (we shared pics how it should be and how it really was delivered) and that he will come back to me, to send the cable back as soon as they will have new rawmaterials to produce new cables (they run out of stock in June, and he says they will be able to produce again end of August) anyway ....that was the last contact in June, since that... no way to get in contact with Imperial neither phone or email or whatever, no reactions

- seem´s i burned the money ... better had the money invested in a new camshaft, headers, carb or some other motorpart.

anyway.... i fixed my cable this way:
cleaned up the cable-housing - used some abrasive paper to make a rough surface, put some RTV on it and covered the complete housing with some overlapping layers of shrinking hose (as known from electrical installations) - to protect it from heat i used a fuel hose and wrapped it with a heat reflecting aluminium-tape.
