This throttle cable bracket is an exact duplication of the original to include the reinforcing rib pressed into the entire flat surface of the bracket...even through the drop down bends on each side of the cross bar. There is no other aftermarket repro bracket made so closely to the original OEM design. It is finished with a “hot” black oxide process that is chemically applied. This bracket is equal to or exceeds OEM specs as it is ruggedly made.
