 gt throttle cable
when i went to change the throttle cable on my gator tail gtr35, i found the new one i bought (for a go devil surface drive) has a smaller end connection (to the linkages behind the air filter). the original/oem cable on my gator tail is much thicker/beefier. see the picture - go devil on left & gator tail on right. is it fine to use the new cable i bought w/ the smaller end connection? thanks

 Re: gt throttle cable
I'm not sure but being that its smaller it may come out of the bracket easier. Try it out and see

 Re: gt throttle cable
Stick it in the hole and see if it comes out easily while moving it

 Re: gt throttle cable
I replaced my throttle cable on my gTR23, with an oem one from gatortail. I had to shave the end of the linkage hook so it would clear the rotating throttle assembly piece.

 Re: gt throttle cable
The GD throttle cables break a lot easier, obviously because it is smaller in diameter. I have broken 2 on my GD 35 already. They like to break right after the L on the end. It will work but will be more likely to break.
