The cables normally last for decades, so you must have some kind
of problem. Exactly WHERE are they breaking? Do you lubricate
them when you put them in?
The cable should run inside a cable housing where it runs above
the transmission. This housing is sometimes lost during an engine
rebuild and can lead to chafing and wear of the cable where it exits
the body or enters the engine. I have some good used housings if
you need one.
