Good To Know

Q: Will this cable need adjustment after installation? A: Yes, the reverse bucket linkage should be adjusted after fitting so the bucket reaches full travel in both directions. Check the adjustment again after the first ride.

Q: How do I know if my reverse cable needs replacing? A: Stiff lever movement, incomplete reverse engagement, or a frayed cable end are common signs. Compare the routing and fittings against the old cable before installation.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
