To second the last comment, I just tonight installed a Steeda adjustable kit on my 95, the kit came with a Fox cable (60 inches) and the 95 cable is also 60 inches.

EXCUSE ME....sorry for trying to help you. Well I tried to tell you its prolly 60 inches and if the autoparts store only has one size and you ask which one to get. I tell you prolly the 60 inch and you say they dont have it. If they only have 1 size then why are you asking which one to get? I suggest going somewhere that does have a 60 inch
