Hi all, I am looking for the dimensions of the Bravo Shift Cable Adjustment Tool that Mercruiser and\or Quicksilver sells. I can't get it in my area and would like to make one. If someone has one laying around, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take three measurements for me. Each measurement is shown in the pic below (red, green blue), all starting at one end (middle of circle). Thank you

Yep, really. Thats in US dollars. I am in Canada. So with shipping and the conversion, that little piece of plastic will cost me $30 cdn......for a piece of plastic I will probably onl use once and have to wait probably 3 weeks to receive.....

I've replaced several bravo shift cables without the need for that tool. The barrel nut on a mercruiser cable is spot on out of the box.

Agree, only time I use mine is with old cables

In any case holes and slot are 1/4
Green - 6 1/8
Red - 7 1/8
Blue - 8 1/8
