    Question Flex cable help... Steve anyone...

    Hi got my set up from Steve already that i ordered for the new drive line on my pro boat apache 24 WOW fast service as always thanks Steve..
    I need some help here i ordered a .130 flex system and the 7/32" K&S brass tubing that was recommende on the site here...thing is i can't seem to get the teflon tube to slide in the pipe? looks like it don't fit... do you supposed to slip the teflon tube inside the same lenght as the brass tube?

    Is this the wrong size tubing for the cable or is the cable the wrong one or maybe the wrong outter teflon tube... the flex cable seems like it's loose inside the teflon tube?

    Any help will be great
    THANKS

    It seems that you have the wrong size brass tubing. Or the wrong size teflon. I suggest getting ahold of Steven and he can get you what you need.

    WOW it worked make sure you stretch it when the flex cable is inside so it stays round!

    At least it's working :-)

    The teflon is often small or large, never exact. If you search the forum there are some other tips for this type of issue.
