Good To Know
Q: What are the signs that my shift cable needs replacement? A: Common signs include a loose or sloppy shifter, difficulty engaging gears, or the gear indicator not matching the actual transmission position.
Q: Will this cable fit both gas and diesel Ram trucks? A: The fitment is based on the truck model and year, not the engine type, so it is compatible with both gas and diesel versions of the listed Ram 2500 and 3500 models.
Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
