    Very Good part
    The part was very nice. It was the same as the original except that it did not have that white mesh piece shown in the part photo. I had the original so it did not cause me a problem. Fit perfect and works correctly.

    Cable for my lawnmower
    This cable is exactly like the original one. It’s amazing I have ordered replacement parts for my riding lawn tractor, my regular lawnmower and even my snowblower. The parts I ordered are exact replacements for what I needed. This company is top notch and I would rate them 11 stars out of 10. Never hesitate to order your replacement parts from ereplacement Parts no matter what you need.

    ADVICE: DIY'ers. Always take pictures or write down notes when making repairs. Also, I don't know if this repair is on You Tube or the internet, but Google it. A lot of are.
    Flipped mower on side (with gas tank on top) - this keeps gas from leaking out.
    Remove mower blade, a bracket, a cover, which all comes loose when blade is removed (3 nuts I believe).
    Remove belt drive and brake mechanism cover to get access to cable end (two bolts on top of mower deck). This cover is bolted on back end (near rear end of mower, and the front end is held by tabs that are fitted into center opening of mower deck. So, to remove, once bolts are removed, pry, pull, on back end of cover to remove not the front end.
    Underneath the mower deck is a plastic mounting bracket that the cable feeds through. It must be removed (one screw). You might have to remove plastic grass chute which is used with bragger (2-3 bolts) for easier access.
    Carefully (with a screwdriver), pry out the damaged cable from bracket. (Note: where the bracket is located on old cable - in other words, how far is the bracket located from the bottom end of cable).
    Pry out rubber seal that is located on mower deck and where the cable feeds through.
    Unhook damaged cable at both ends and remove from mower.
    Feed the new cable rough mower deck and reseat the rubber seal (which comes already on new cable).
    Insert cable into plastic mounting bracket taking note that it should be located in the place as it was on old cable.
    Re- attach cable on blade brake mechanism. (Make sure cable is fed correctly and not twisted or bent around something.
    Re- attach mounting block/bracket.
    Feed and re-connect cable at top end on handle.
    TEST to make sure everything appears to work correctly.
    Re-attack belt cover (Note: this cover has tabs on end - where mower blade is bolted on that must be seated first, then push the back end of cover in place. You will have to adjust cover until bolt holes line up. Put bolts in and tighten.
    Re- attach cover, bracket, and blade on mower.
    Flip mower over, start, and test.

    I didn't want a mess, so I removed fuel tank and drained oil, oil was old anyway
    2- remove cover under deck by taking 2 bolts from top of deck
    3- measure the space between mounting clamp and end of cable so you can put it approximately where it belongs.
    4- remove old cable you will have to measure the distance at the top of the mower handle and the loosen bolt enough to get cable out of top clamp, you will turn plastic end of cable to release from mower handle
    5- replace in same order, put top end on the feed cable back through hole in deck
    Note: pay attention to routing of cable under the deck especially because you don't want to kink it or have it rubbing on belts or pulley, Photos with the smart phone before you tear it down will be helpful later...
