Keith, It's been a while since I've worked with 2wd cable, but seeing as no one else has chimed in, I'll take a stab. Is the square hole in the cap on the hub, where the cable end goes thru, in good shape? I mean is it square to match the cable end? And the little circlip on the cable end in place?

I replaced mine with a Van-Cafe version early this year (Gemo brand) and it reduced the bouncing but still there. Just installed a rebuilt speedo head from GoWesty, and have the same bouncing problems (causing my cruise control to be glitchy). I've done all of the tweaking and adjusting I can to little avail. I've seen good reviews of cables from most of the usual suspect vendors, and bad reviews from most as well. Seems a lot of QC issues with most, apparently. > > What say you list gurus?
