Need new steering cable

I need a new steering cable for my 2002 Sj. What's the best one to buy? My buddy can also get a discounted price from sbt so are sbt cables any good?

Had a buddy put in a wsm cable at the brigantine jersey ride last September because that's all he could find to ride out the rest if the weekend. It broke this past Thursday. Didn't even last 10 months.

Biggest pile of crap ever. They are cheap. That's about the only positive I can say.

I've tried SBT. They will last about a year to two years.

Nothing beats oem for quality and longevity.


Also salt vs. fresh is a big difference. Looks like surf in the OP's profile pic. So I suggest oem. Best choice for salt.

My ski with a sbt cable is a dedicated surf hull. It only sees salt and then sits for months at a time. Our ocean is pretty salty on the west coast too.

Just giving another opinion on cables. I think the main thing is I that they are run correctly With no binding and hydroturf is placed in spots that they will rub hull or other things. ALOT of people run the, wrong or in binds and don't even know it or think they are doing it right.
 
thank all! my profile pic is actually a boat pushing for us lol but 95% of my riding is salt.
i ordered a cable from jet maniac yesterday
