Adjusting the OX cable.....Under way - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I just finished adjusting my OX my self for the second time. I had a shop do it the first time because I thought I damaged the thing. So Now that I know how to get it adjusted I want to know is how to keep it that way. It seems that the cable keeps threading itself into the shift fork.

I added locktite at the shifter end aswell as a stainless set screw to replace the plastic one. Anyone else have any thing to add to this?

Remove the shifter from the other end so you have the bare cable, and grab the cable w/ a pair of pliers and turn the inner cable with the pliers to thread it out.
