lawn ranger throttle and choke cables

[Jake Kuhn 1,554]

Hi everyone, Does anyone know where I can purchase new throttle and choke cables for a 67 lawn ranger? If anyone knows I would really appreciate the help. Thanks, Jake

The ones I got off Ebay are junk, I did get some from Chuck a vendor at the Charlotte show and they are pretty nice so far, I'll see if I have his contact info.

Dittos on the junk from eBay.

I know there very very expensive, but would the ones from partstree be any good?

EDIT... Guess I can't find them on there, does anyone have correct part numbers for them?

Thanks, Jake

5560 for choke, and 5561 for throttle. Those number may have changed though, this info is right out of the owners manual.

[gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,029]

Choke cable 5560 replaced by 102119

Throttle cable 5561 replaced by 102119

That make sense?

New part numbers are 102119 for throttle and 102118 for choke.

Has anyone here actually bought the new OEM (102118 & 102119) cables?

They look like they're all made by the same company.

Perhaps the increased price is for the "Genuine Toro/WH parts" packaging. :eusa-whistle:

If you check Mowpart.com, the 102119 from Toro is actually less expensive ($10.71) than the Stens brand ($13.11). The stuff on eBay is usually around $12.00 to $15.00 each.

Bought both of those from parts tree for my 606. must be universal because the same ones are for my lawn rangers also and and the 118s & 119s are both too long for all my tractors. but they can be shortened. Edited January 30, 2013 by Terry M

Yes - With the proper alterations, 102118 & 102119 replace many different older part numbers.

I want to know if the genuine Toro/WH throttle cable has the same cheap plastic knob that falls off after a few twist-to-lock cycles.

ive had good luck with my ebay ones...... im sure not all the ebay ones are the same and id have to go back to try to identify what i actually got, but from memory they just mentioned the 102118/102119 part numbers. i did a bit of asking on the forum about these as well at the time i was looking for them, and the subject of the new ones seems to come up every now and again. i must admit i am gentle with the throttle one on my 1057 and it doesnt get anywhere near daily or weekly use, but through the summer months last year it got more use than any of my other 'nice' tractors and is holding up fine from what i can see......

just looked up my ebay history, i used this seller

antchip49ju

search for Throttle & Choke Cables for Wheel Horse 102119 +102118

cant guarantee that these are exactly the same ones, but i would buy again from this seller if i needed more. if somebody could say the toro ones were the bees knees i would pay the extra, but ive been burnt before by buying more expensive 'crap' when the cheap 'crap' is a superior product..... :confusion-scratchheadblue:

Just looked up the ones martin told me about, Look pretty nice but looks like the are stens. Do I want to try and get genuine toro or do you guys think these would be ok?

Thanks, Jake

If you have a trusted Toro dealer nearby, I would order a cable from him with the understanding that if it is no different than the Stens or the junk aftermarket ones, you could return it with no penalty.

I drilled and pinned a throttle cable but I think it was original. I'd do it again though. Works very good.

[gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,029]

If you order from Toro use the 102118 and 102119 part numbers because if you use the original 5560 and 5561 part numbers you will likely get two 102119 cables.
