thank you so much! I'm afraid my cable is just faulty.. I have repaired it 3 times over the past 8 years, but I think it is just 'el rotto'
I did the shocks and struts this weekend and am definitely thinking I'll take it to my favorite garage to have them do it. In scouting it, it looks like a giant PITA.
when there is no youtube, you know it can't be fun!
Thanks again
