Default shifter cables
just curious what length shifter cable is everyone using for the m6-th400 swap? i have broken a couple of them with just use, they have pretty much seperated at the coupler. also how is everyone routing them. I have been using the standard 5' cable.

maybe you should try a 4ft and shape it like a ......S if not get a heavy duty 5ft and try routing it different.

i have tried both a 4 and 5 foot routing it so there are no kinks or hard bends in it. but no luck yet.
