Hello everyone,
This is my first post ever, i am slowly learning about taking care of my Jeep. I've been trying to replace a frayed transmission detent cable on my XJ. I saw this thing flopping free, what is this?
Also, I regret starting this project
Dropped the transmission pan and thought that would be enough... but whatever is holding the old detent cable in place on the top of the bell housing is making me questions all my life decisions. I'm wondering if I can just cut the old out and pass the new one around the old clip. Am I being stupid? Thank you.
