Wow i wish all repairs and videos were this simple and thoroughly covered

Thank you for the video! I'm currently replacing the lower shift cable in my stepdad's van and it's helped a lot!

Thanks for the video I only got the back half of the cable but after watching this I think I’ll be able to make it work. Now I know the connection is on the outside.

Dude thank you for this video. It’s helpful as fooock. Exact issue. Exact fix. Life saver !!! For me I couldn’t get just the bushing and the cable was old anyways. Feels better doing a proper fix for a van that I love. Thanks again.

I don't like ripping customers off..I'm an honest technician.i recommended the plastic bushing but the customer wanted to replace the whole cable ..so he didn't have to deal with it later...

Thanks for making the video i don’t know how you do it tight spaces! Well thanks to you I was able to fix my cable I just needed a bushing but the price of the 1/2 section was not bad but…end up buying the whole thing )$120)because as I was removing separating halfway I broke the little clip (on the other section) that holds the cables together and worst dealer part did not match!! …my fault ! made the mistake of not comparing side by side!!!! the cable was short it only gave me 123DN. no R no P so i had to remove everything and of course dealer did not take the part. so i remove the bushing out of it and placed on the old cable and reinstall faster and easy ….not really it works thanks Learn from my mistakes !!

You just saved my vacation!😅

This video just saved my ass. Thank you

i was able to get home with this video tks

Thank you I'm about to do mine tomorrow.

Thank you 🙏🏻

Excelente video 👌👌

FYI TO EVERYONE: You may only need to replace the shift linkage bushing (little white plastic piece seen in thumbnail) cost me $10 and I crawled under my van and replaced it in 2min with my fingers and some needle nose pliers.

I love this kind of videos , nothing bla..bla..bla......

Good work. Thanks

Nice job

awesome video well done loved it but I will just take my van to one of you guys a mechanic lol

Nice video

I see it's a cleaning service van. Lol Excellent video. I do the same things you do with the boxes and clicking the tools together. Lmao.

Thanks

Could you just purchases the lower, disconnect the transmission side and connect to new end without pulling the end of the column shifter? The would elevate having to pull it though the floor board.

Yes sir you can purchase the lower end separately..

I re engineered the shifter it is now 1975 shifter on a 2000 chev

Thanks for the video, but there were no need to replace the upper cable- it comes on 2 parts, you should just replace the transmission cable section- on minute 4 to 4:09 there is the section where it separates- but I guess the customer asked for all the shifting cable replace- not a quick fix- Just saying- 😂

Thank you!!!..Yes sir all it basically needed was the transmission side cable.. but if we're talking about a quick fix then I would have just replaced the plastic bushing on the end of the transmission side cable.. but the customer wanted to replace the whole shift cable!!....🙂😂

They need to fix this. My chevy broke n it dodnt work then an it dont work realgood now lol

Can you please give me a suggestion for my transmission, my 2000 Chevy van, while I was driving doing about 60 mph and my transmission went out, as I gave the motor gas ,my engine was just revving, as I came to a stop , I put it in park and began shifting through the gears, no response from any gear I tried, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Miguel sorry I don't have the part number I threw the boxes away 😊 if you can't find the cable and the only part that broke is the little bushing you can go to the help section at O'Reilly's or AutoZone and they sell just a little plastic bushings and you can just slap that right on instead of replacing the whole cable
