All,

First, I did not find a lot of info or help out there on this subject, so I hope this posting is helpful to someone in the future.
I recently rebuilt my 22r engine and while reinstalling the engine and auto. trans discovered my detent\kick down cable was not functioning. Upon further investigation found the ball on the end of the cable inside the transmission had worn off. Then, I also discovered Toyota has discontinued the 84-88 detent cable. After retro fitting a number of different cables discovered that the 1990-92 Toyota Land Cruiser Cable to fit into my 85 pickup and worked great. The cable is a little longer but once it is fasten to the hold down fitting on the intake manifold it works just as good as original.

The part number for this cable is Parts Geek----1990-1992 Toyota Land Cruiser Automatic Transmission Kickdown Cable - Pioneer Cables CA-2015...... https://www.partsgeek.com/ss/?i=1&ssq=Part+#:+CA-2015 or https://tinyurl.com/6mm32s7b

I hope this helps!!!
