I am going to use a stock clutch cable on my VW Trike. But I need to make it shorter, I need to add a steel threaded clevis to the end. I have tryed a few things over the yrs on steel cables with some good luck & some bad luck. Has anyone did something that works really good. Here are a couple pics I hope to take it for its first test ride soon.

You can buy a clutch cable shortening kit for about 5.99 from ads on the samba in new parts. It worked really good. But, I changed mine out to hydraulic, and I like it better.

California pus pull. They have a great cable shortening device and it is reusable.
