Cable size in kick down

nboost · Jul 15, 2018

I cut my cable to short for my kick down. What size is it and where can I find some more?

Is it Lokar?

some times a name can help with sourcing.
They are called "TV Cables" in ford.

I think U R using a che**y term.

Nope, TV cable is a Ford AOD term. Kick down linkage or cable is for the C4. I run my C4 without a kick down lever. I just manually put it in 2nd if I need it early.

Stock is a rod, aftermarket is a cable. Guessing you have an aftermarket kickdown cable? (or TV if AOD).

Trouble is this cable isn't generic cable. If you feel the cable it is smooth. The standard cable you will find isn't smooth, it's bumpy. That will eat away at a cable sheath over time.

With luck you can trim the outer sheath which will make the inner longer. If not, you need a whole new cable. If it is a good brand of aftermarket cable, and you ask nice, you might be able to get a new inner cable directly from the manufacturer. But that involves you going directly to the manufacturer.

If I remember right it was the BC Bronco kick down kit for a C4 & EFI

"...TV if AOD..."; "...TV cable is a Ford AOD term..."
