I like your connection. How did you attach that connector to the cable (brake pedal side)?
Cable was on the car three years and put about 40,000 miles on the cable when it broke . that is one reason i decide to datatch it ..... i am thinking the constant in and out of dalily driving it did it in.

the loop broke once and the cable broke once ...

I love the system and have toad my honda about 20,000 miles with it .
I had it also on my 2002 dakota for about 5,000 miles before i bought the honda

I always joke that it’s the worlds smallest winch cable on my Wrangler.

I enjoy seeing the look on peoples faces as they try to figure out what that loop is.
