-   Supersedes part number 22336734

## 🔌 Function

Forms the end connection on the shift cable, clamping to the cable end and coupling it to the bellcrank on the drive so lever movement at the helm is passed through to the gear shift.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Gear engagement feeling vague, with slack in the lever before anything happens
-   Shift failing to engage fully into ahead or astern
-   Cable end found loose in the cube, or the clamping fastener backed off
-   Bore worn oval or the cube cracked around the cable end on inspection
-   Rattle or click from the linkage as the cable takes up its slack

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the cable itself for stiffness and a corroded inner before blaming the cube, since a seized cable ruins the new connection quickly
-   Reset the shift cable adjustment after fitting and confirm full engagement in both directions before the boat is used
