Drivetrain Tech / Shift cable update & shift kit to install?

October 03, 2018, 12:06:19 PM

Found a NOS cable, but not sure what AOD shift kit is best to put in? Want to get the most out of the current setup, while keeping the car as close to stock as possible.
So looking for opinions on the different kits I see out there - is any one in particular better than others?

Drivetrain Tech / Searching for a shift cable

September 11, 2018, 12:09:43 PM

Shift cable broke on my 88 Cougar XR-7 back in June. Apparently no one makes an OE part anymore and I've had zero luck locating any replacements or even a company that can make one.

Please advise if you know where to go to get new shift cables. (3 months later and I still can't believe this part is so hard to source.)

Also looking for opinions as to the best shift kit to install. I've come across a few different ones for sale. Car is currently has the bone stock original AOD tranny.

Thanks,
Dave

T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars WANTED / '88 Cougar Dash Speaker grill - Pass side

Looking for a speaker cover for the passenger side dash.

Mine broke while replacing heater core.

The car is an '88 XR-7; interior Color is Charcoal/smoke, of course.

I think the '87 version would be identical?

Thanks,
Dave
