Detailed Description

This Pioneer Cables CA-1949 detent cable is made for automatic transmission linkage service where precise cable routing and end fitment matter. It is a direct replacement for select 1981-1983 Chrysler LeBaron, New Yorker, and Town & Country; 1981-1983 Dodge Aries and 600; 1982-1983 Dodge Rampage; 1983 Dodge Charger; and 1981-1983 Plymouth Reliant, TC3, and Turismo 2.2 applications. This part cross-references AMS Automotive 4218 and Continental 63201 for the same application.

What It Helps Correct

  • Worn or stretched detent cable causing inconsistent transmission linkage movement
  • Corrosion inside the cable housing that affects shift response
  • Damaged cable ends that no longer seat correctly
  • Rough or imprecise throttle-detent cable operation on listed Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s original cable length and end style before installation. This CA-1949 cable is non-adjustable, so correct routing and proper attachment at the slotted clevis and socket ends are important for accurate fitment. Confirm compatibility with the specific transmission and linkage layout on your Chrysler LeBaron, Dodge Aries, or Plymouth Reliant before replacing the original cable.

Quality Assurance

Pioneer Cables manufactures this replacement cable to OE specifications using a steel inner cable and polymer outer housing for durable service. The design focuses on corrosion resistance, abrasion protection, and consistent replacement fit for the listed applications.
