Hey guys, finally got my kart out of storage, and i need a new cable. Looking for the ones where the pedal end is round and a bolt goes through, and the housing has a piece of threaded section with 2 jam nuts. They used to be at tractor supply, but they don't have them anymore i've searched the web but i can't find any.. Help? Thanks!

Sounds to me your kart uses a Manco Dingo style cable like this. I think you have a Manco wheel. So quessing you have a Manco kart.

I went to walmart and bought the kit in the bike section for $5, comes with 4 or so different cables.
My cable is/was like yours, for the cable to hook to the gas pedal i got a flat washer that would slip over the arm on the pedal, and drilled a hole the size of the cable into the washer, and slipped the cable through and used a cable stop to lock the end of the cable, I also reused the old jam nut section, i just cut off the old cable housing, drilled the housing just a little, slid the new cable housing in, re pinched the end, and works like new.
