[Public-List] Anyone Have a Source for a Transmission Cable

[Don Campbell]

 From what I remember Teleflex-Morse red jacket cables come in standard 
lengths of 3, 4, 5, 6, and up. It is just a matter of finding someone 
who stocks them in the shorter lengths and there are places on the net 
that you can go to to get these short cables. I guess you have  two 
options search teleflexmarine.com for dealers or look for red jacket 
cables in search engines.
