2007 mk 7 rwd transit

Postby rattybathead » Mon Sep 25, 2017 9:25 pm

Got a problem! gears were all working fine until cable balljoint under van ( attached to a thick steel lever) came adrift, socket head looks rusty so has obviously worn. Was wondering if I could change the balljoint on the cable or do I have to replace the cables as a unit? Cheers!

The cable are only available as a pair if you go to ford.

Don't know if anyone has single cables or has successfully changed an end.

Notice a trend there ? not too big and not too small

Ditto v8Dave...Can't say I've seen separate cables or parts thereof for sale anywhere...I suspect a complete assy is required.
