To do a complete short shift cable replacement in order to replace the cable bellows requires a bit of effort and at least one special tool (very deep six point 9/16" Socket).
Ayuh,.... With the new replacement cables, the little white plastic tube, on the aft end, Unscrews for installation,......
So the extra long 9/16" socket is no longer necessary,.....
How many posts will be received with shifting problems because the boat owner forgot to reinstall plastic tube or didnt tighten it properly and it loosened up.
