8 ENDS Door Cable Repair Kit for F-series, E-series, Ranger, Expedition, Excursion, Navigator (Repairs Four Cables - 6 Standard Ends 2 LOCKING CAM)

Work Great – Bargain price instead of buying entire cableThese METAL cable ends work perfectly to replace the broken dangerous cheap plastic cable ends. There are instructional videos all over the internet on how to repair this too common of a problem.If I was King the NHTSA – NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION - would issue a recall on all Ford E-series vans because of a dangerous safety problem. The problem is that the backseat passenger area door lock handles operate with cables and the cables FAIL because Ford used a cheap plastic cable end connector. When the cable end breaks you cannot open the doors from the inside, or from the outside, to allow the passengers to exit the vehicle. I reported this dangerous safety problem to NHTSA. If enough people report this dangerous condition then NHTSA will force Ford to recall and repair all safety defects.

I don't usually write reviews but i I'm ecstatic! The rear doors on my 2002 F150 Lariat haven't opened for years and i fixed them with these in just a couple of hours! There is just a little modification required to install these.Just break off the old dry rotted pieces. Then, you'll have to take a file or something to slightly reduce the diameter of the cable housing, at each end, for these to slide on. There is a rough and textured end on the cable housing that held the old dry rotted piece on. Looks like some kind of heat crimp. I used a handheld wood rasp to remove the ridges from the black cable housing and these slid on perfectly! I can't believe both doors are working again for less than 10 bucks!

I've replaced the door cables in the past when the ferrule's broke only because it was under warranty. The cost from ford is about $275 each + labor! I'm very happy I found these. They work well. Both my rear doors on my 2006 F-150 Supercab broke within a week of each other. After learning how to remove the panels on Youtube it was fairly simple to repair the broken pieces 3 of the 4 on each door were broken. Just the one inside the door at the bottom wasn't broken. It was easily crushed with my fingers. It's disgraceful the truck manufacturer doesn't install a better performing ferrule. Anyway, I am super pleased so far with the results. I did have to open up the gap slightly on the mounting hardware using a screwdriver shaft, leveraging, to get a few of the ends to pop in place. The tolerances on the ends might be a few thousandths off. OEM plastic/rubber will give when pushing on. Aluminum not so much. Also, I had to use a Dremel to open up a few of the slots to allow the cables to fit. Even with these issues I give them 5 stars. Also, I sprayed all the latches with white lithium grease once it was all put together. The first door took me 2 hours to repair. After that learning curve, the second door was done in about 1 hour. I did not remove the whole assembly. I just unscrewed each latch one at a time, repaired it, then reassembled it.In the photos you can see portions of the broken ferrules and a few that were completely gone. Unfortunately I didn't get any photos of the finished pieces.

Not sure if it should been so hard to lock in holder but fix my issue fine

I found the parts were very well made out of aluminum, whereas, the original parts were plastic. I did not have any issues with the parts not fitting where they were supposed to go.

Used to repair all four extended cab door cables on a 2003 F-150. Worked perfectly, just understand what you're getting in to. Depending on the make and model, changing these out can be a challenge. If it helps, make sure the oem cable sheathing seats all the way up into the aluminum sleeve (I had to clean up a few cable ends with sandpaper to get them to fully seat). Also, a pair of hose pliers was extremely helpful in pulling the new end into the retaining bracket. The oem ends are rubber and pop in easily, and being aluminum, these need significantly more force to pop in to the bracket. Awesome product and great value. Highly recommend.

Will not fit properly on a 2004 Ford Ranger without having to ream the slot so that the cable will slide. Slot was way too small, and Had a lot of trouble with the fit. Once I got the slot opened for the cable they worked okay. If I had to get them again I would have to find some that were larger in the slot.

Good idea to replace old rotted/broke cable ends. I sanded a little on the rough edges-ends of the cable housing before putting on the new en̈ds.

Très bien

did the trick
