Looking for a 1992 Toyota Throttle Cable Assembly as Toyota has discontinued this item.
CABLE ASSY, THROTTLE 35520-60090

Searched Fleabay and google, search continues.


Had an EPIC weekend and the throttle cable somehow kinked and started coming apart and actually stuck with the foot in the throttle! Killed the ignition and use an allen wrench as a "splint" for the broken cable and duct taped it all together. It got me off the mountain and got me home!

It is equipped with the factory cruise control.

Is that with cruise control?

If you don't have cruise, rock auto has a throttle cable. At least that what it says. W/o cruise.

I believe cable is still available
Do not go the Rock Route unless you want to send it back.
Mine was too short and a $20 waste of money (shipping to and fro) and about 2 hours installing, adjusting and figuring it was wrong then removing. Plus I had to go back to Post office to ship back.
 
Contact @arcteryx (Jason at CrusierYard). Stand up dude. He is who I go to for used parts.
 
Check with Kyle at South Atlanta Toyota, he keeps a lot of part in stock and you can't beat his prices. I just ordered a throttle cable for my 93 yesterday from him.

Kyle Toyota OEM

Might also be worth giving cruiser parts a shout. I needed a idle control valve and all the dealerships would only sell the complete throttle body for $1600. I got one from cruiser parts for $100.

This part is a goner.
 
If demand was decent, I could make one that functions the same, but it would look slightly different.
Toyota use a plastic coated cable, and one I spec'd would be bare cable with plastic liner in sheath. Same functionally.
Use a cable manufacturer thru work and they told me they could make one for my FZJ80.
The one thing I remember was that there were plastic parts that were crimped on when cable was made.
Can you post a picture of full cable?

Fact of the matter is that Toyota always supports component systems much longer if the component system has been around for 10-15-20 years.

The 3F-E was a stop-gap measure engine that Toyota engineered on the fly because the engineers on the 1FZ-FE program hadn't completed the necessary modifications to configure the 1FZ-FE engine for automobile applications. There was also the issue of making sure Toyoda Industries could create the tooling necessary in time to mass produce the block and then put the engine together.

The 1FZ-FE was designed in the mid-late 1980's. Think about that--and had been operating in industrial applications for a number of years before Toyota even decided it would be a good engine to put into the Land Cruiser platform.

The situation remains that 3F-E support will disappear much sooner than later.

What was the commercial application?

I know the Transmission was used in a 30K # bus.
 
Idk what it has for ends but motorcycle shops that worked on older/custom bikes have a kit wiht bulk outer-3 sizes and bulk inners and (brass?) ferrules of different shapes/sizes/configurations with a recess (that you melt solder into after splaying outthe cable) that are soldered on. Made one for one of my sbcs in a 40 years ago. Make nicecables that way.
 
The part number at the top is a transmission kick-down cable. Is that what you need or is it an accelerator cable?
 
Thus the importance of clarification......:)
