just replaced the shifter cable, lower , on my alpha 1 and noticed that ( with he out drive off) when i move the cabel in and out the outdrive end wants to rotate as the cable is moved, i am doing this with the cable assy not yet engaged int the shift shaft if i hold the cable so it doesnt rotate it gets stiffer to operate , has anyone ever noticed this issue and is it even and issue ?
issue #2 i have also notices ( out drive is still off ) that turning the gimble assy via the wheel will move the cable and bellows out, but whein i turn it back in the direction of the cable bellows the cable does not push back and it kind of binds up, i would thisk it should slide back into the transum, any thoughts

thanks

You have the allen screw too tight, the inner core must rotate freely on the slide
With the drive straight, the bellow is in the correct postion to be ty-wrapped on the end.the bellow will move with the cable as 1 unit.
