Throttle Cables

We have six Dodge diesel trucks, 89 to 98 models. <br>I noticed the throttle cable was frayed on the 96<br>so I thought I would look at the others. The 94, 9?<br>and 96 all have frayed throttle cables. What up with <br>this. I called the dealer, $70 each, I don't think so. <br><br>Anybody know anything about throttle cables. <br>I was thinking about reusing the cable housings<br>and replacing the cables with aircraft cable. <br><br>Thanks for any help. <br>Bo<br><br>BTW, All of these trucks are for sale. <br>89,92,94,96,98 and we have some others. <br>I'll list them in the classified section. <br>Or email me, bo@granbury.com and I <br>will send pics and prices. <br>

Re:Throttle Cables

Those throttle cables are all under recall, you should not have to pay a thing to have them replaced.<br><br>Recall #970

Re:Throttle Cables

That recall covers the 94-96 models and should be covered at no cost by the dealer<br><br>http://dodgeram.info/tsb/recalls/970.htm

Re:Throttle Cables

Wow, Thanks for the info. After you guys pointed that <br>recall out I found 15 recalls on that truck.<br> <br>http://www1.autozone.com/servlet/UiB...on=viewRecalls<br><br>I think I'll give the $70 cable dealer another call.<br><br>Bo<br><br>
