BC Bronco throttle Cable Install

Mono · Jan 9, 2010

"We developed this throttle cable kit especially for carbureted Early Broncos with a 4 brl.carb. This kit affords precise throttle control beyond that of the stock mechanical linkage. Includes cable, mounting brackets, hardware, wedge washers and instructions."

*Note, This upgrade requires no skill ;D *

I was frustrated with the old mechanical bell crank linkage, so I forked over some money to BC's for their Throttle Cable. Simple half hour job! Looks good too.

Check out my before and after pics:

Looks great, I'll bet it's more responsive.

Yeah- works great. It will also look good next to Chucks kickdown cable that mounts to the same bracket.......... that I need to order

How different from the Lokar kit is it, just curious? I'm leaning towards the throttle cable kick down combo my self, sure looks cleaner then the bell crank and rods.

Not sure on difference- Price? Quality? Chucks is $39.99

I installed one of these about five years ago and love it. I never could get my stock linkage to work all that well after I put the body lift on.

I put mine on about 4 yrs ago and love it. Why Ford over engineered that set up is beyond me. Really smooth too.

looks to be about twice as long as it needs to be. It still works smooth with that that loop?

Yup, little long, but works smooth.

Why is it sooooo long?

badasstrapper · Jan 9, 2010

Getting ready to install a new motor with a four barrel I just might have to get one of these. Looks like it cleans up the fire wall a little also

Works with 6" body lift?

Pa PITT · Jan 9, 2010

I need to look into that.. that may be better than what I have on my 4BT .. And the length is slightly longer on the diesel.

Or more!

Must be a different original application.

I'm curious too, if it was made for a Bronco, I would think it would be a better fit!? Am I wrong? I still like the idea, and sure does clean it up a lot. I heard of people using the cables from Ford Ranger's but never seen one installed, wonder if there shorter then that?

I cut my BC cable to make it shorter. they are a bit long. be careful if you cut. they are tricky to get back together
