Auto Trans Shifter Cables

Available Shifter Cable Lengths:

2' - 13' (24 to156 inches); or 0.609 - 3.962 meters

 SELECTION NOTES:

The most common shifter lengths for automotive applications are either 48-60 inches for rear exit shifters, and 72-84 inches for shifters with a front cable exit.

While a rear exit shifter needs to only make a "U" bend to connect to the transmission linkage, a front exiting shifter requires the shifter cable to make an "S" bend. You do not want the bends to be too tight, and you want enough play to avoid moving parts and high heat areas near an under chassis exhaust system.
