Does anyone have a picture of how the cruise control cable connects to the throttle body? I just added cruise to my car, but can't figure out how this cable attaches.

Ok. I've got that so far, but how does the actual cruise control cable itself attach to the throttle cable bracket, and to the throttle body bellcrank?

yes. Toss it on eBay if it’s good. You’ll get decent money

Yeah that’s tempting but I’ve just been saving everything I’m removing I’m a storage bin just in case.

Yes, the one in the rear is the cruise cable. Being jiggly is normal.
