I've been searching for about 30 mins and couldn't find what I was looking for, so here it goes, when replacing a steering cable, I just have to measure the length of the orignal cable, and if it is inbetween sizes getting the size bigger correct??

also, does it matter which cable I chose,

HPQC Rotary Steering Cable
or
QCII Steering Cable?

reason I'm asking is that they both look the same as mine that is currently fubar'd

Re: Steering cable size

Go on the Teleflex we site. They have a formula for this.

Re: Steering cable size

Agree teleflex will have a formula for measuring, but on the old cable the length should be stamped on the sleeve. Just order the same length.
Good Luck
