Isn't it too thin to be used as jeep's accelerator cable?

Had once tried adapting it to the outer of my bike's clutch cable and noticed that the stopper tends to shift on prolonged use.

my intended and actual use of this vehicle was for fairly rough off-roading (Asif & Mack The Knife might have an idea of what this entails.) ;)
I still wonder why I did not end up breaking my tail bone. It wasn't as if there were any lack of opportunities.... :mrgreen:

The only things lacking were shock absorbers that actually absorbed some shock - eh? ;) :lol:

The problem was being thrown up from the wheel arch and then landing on that bloody edge. AAAARRRGGGGHHHHHH.....!!!!!

Finally took pity on Doc and made him exchange places with your cousin who was having a cushy ride all day long. The poor chap almost caught his death of cold - the cousin, that is. :mrgreen:

Having said all that, I'd do it again in a jiffy. Now if only I could find my gloves.... <sniff!>

Just bough one such Jeep couple of months back. Was saving money to buy 12 Bore for shooting events but gave up to Babus to get license for time being and bought Jeep :) So happy as well as said. Got what I liked and gave up what I loved. Hope would get the lisence soon and buy the 12 Bore as well :)

How is the clutch and how are the brakes..? Are they modified or the original CJ.
