    Hey all
    As some may know I have had many issues with my cj and now on to the next one. I got the cj3a intake and carb and now my throttle linkage does not line up. Instead of rerouting and fabing a linkage. I was wondering about getting a cable throttle like one for a buggy web site. Or am I better off to keep to what I need to do?
    Any suggestions
    Thanks

    you could go either way... when i bought my throttle linkage, it didnt line up properly. i was going to give up on it and buy a cable throttle setup... easy to set up and easy to adjust... but i ended up cutting the new throttle and a piece of the old linkage that i had and welded them together to line up properly.

    cable setup would work just fine though... check out summit and mr. gasket's websites.

    I replaced my cable over the winter with a new one. Actually went and bought a piece of cable at the hardware store and fished it through the old sleeve. It works just fine.
