Got some new cable from McMaster Carr for my Strobe limiters :D

Black Commercial Grade Nylon-coated Wire Rope, Galv, 7x7,3/64"-1/16",270# Break Strg (8923T103)

Red Commercial Grade Nylon-coated Wire Rope, Galv,7x7, 3/64"-1/16",270# Break Strg (8923T601)

Much better looking than the old bare wire that frayed at the ends. Plus its MUCH more flexible, and it still pinches into the top mounts very tightly.

I'm curious to see how well the coating on this cable holds up in the top mount...whether or not it wants to pull out on hard crashes or not. Like I said, it fits nice and tight, but we'll see.

I kind of went with the belt and suspenders protection on this truck with the 7075 Racer's Edge Shock Ends AND suspension limiters, but its going to be a basher, and I want it to have every chance of holding up. Not to mention its a little on the heavy side, so crashes are going to be extra rough. haha
