There are 3 different cables. Which one('s) do you need? LRS sell the two that go to the rear wheels (long one's). The short one (under console) can be tough to find. I ended up getting one at a junk yard.



EDIT: BTW, the short cable that they sell for the Fox looks just like ours .... but I have no idea if it will work or not.

I could have sworn that I did see 94-98 one's on there a while back. They still might have them (but not on the site), though. I'd try to call & see.


If not, the junk yards can usually help.

got mine from an 92 or earlier (yeah i know 93s are the same for the most part cough engine not forged ect cough) so mine doesnt work for chit. get a yr specific cable dont waste your time/money. grrrr its later than 5am where i am im twisted but im tellin ya dont waste your time. but hey, mine worked enough to get passed for an inspection in Ma. which from what ive seen is just below california which is the worst of them all. so what am i saying? mine doesnt work, but somehow it passed inspection... doesnt make sense get the right parts so it will work when you park on a hill (its gotta happen atleast at some random time even if you dont plan on it which could f your rims up)

a junk yard/ebay/some local ford dealership (which will rape you on the dough) will save your car. which ever way you choose do it right please. i wish i did she rolls on steep hills when the clutch is at its prime:read just installed and not even broken in yet.
pm me with any q's my parts are in my lame sig.

Email me direct and if you cover shipping ($20 USPS should cover to NY)I will give you both rear cables. I purchased a '95 GT rear for my Fox and I have the cables off the rear. They moved easily when I removed them in May and the rear only had 25k miles on it. I will verify they work 100% before I ship them.
