    breakaway cable

    Anyone ever put a breakaway cable in a XR84 couple? Or maybe have a detailed drawing of the install? This one is completely closed in on the bottom and it appears hat it will have to come apart to install one, which will be a lot of fun, I'm sure.
    Any info on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I believe the xr84 breakaway cable install is identical to the a60.

    The a84 & the A60 are pretty much the same but the XR84 has a plate under it that would require the entire actuator removed. I'll take a pic of it and post as it hard to describe. I've taken the A-60 part years ao and it very simple. This one doesn't look very simple. I've called Dexter several times and getting someone there is like tying to get in touch with Biden. All these companies are getting to be pretty much useless with customer service. Remind me of new car dealerships in a lot of ways. I was hoping someone had had some experience with this. This came on my RangerTrail and Ranger knows about as much as I do, which is nothing.
