ok....heres what AZ told me. Their computer and website have issues with these parts. I think the sheath is the actual problem here...not the length of the cable. Because of the longer sheath, the cable cannot extend all the way out to the lever on your transmission. So, you need a CA1130 cable, which is listed at AZ as a 4speed trans cable. The length is about 3" shorter than the CA1102, but the sheath is almost 10" shorter, which give the cable more room to move. the first cable you got from advance was not a PIONEER brand and that was probably why it looks different. hope this helps...and I hope you can get it hooked up soon too...digimurda said:
yeah...listed for a 4speed, but the picture shows the 3speed cable. I had issues with this when I put my trans in too. Its all coming back to me now. The length of the cable was thought to be the problem, but as I said, its not the cable length, but the sheath length that creates the issues with allowing the cable to reach the lever.pontiacgp said:

4sp
3sp
I'll have to look when I get home, I think its the top one,
But that wouldn't make a difference with the cable reach right now.
should be...but I still say that the shifter bracket above will make a difference too...so if you were sold a 3speed bracket, it wont work with a 4speed cable....just keep that in mind...its all about the clearance...clarence...loldigimurda said:
honestly mine was a bit of a pain when I switch from 3 speed to 4 speed too. I ended up grinding the end off my 3speed detent to get the shifter into low gear and then cut the bracket on the trans and re-welded it to line up where it needed to be.
