While taking the throttle body off a 1998 dodge ram with the 5.9 engine. I broke the plastic clip off that attaches it to the throttle body. I know they probably don't sell a replacement clip and i will probbaly have to buy a whole new cable. I am having trouble finding one online does anyone know where to get one? Preferably cheap... I haven't tried the local junkyards yet i might end up having to go that rout but i want to see what the cost of a new cable is.

Below is a link to a replacement clip that will fit the 2nd gen Dodge Ram 5.9 V8 and also fits the Jeep 4.0L

Don't replace the entire cable if you don't have to. Hope this helps some folks out.

Please let me know what ya think, how it works for you, or doesn't work right. Can be tweaked, just ask.
This might work for my 2000 dodge ram 5.2?
Pretty cool production process....to use on a ram 1500 to replace broken clip I just carefully remove rest of broken one and this will just slip on?! Sweet! Ordered one, will update after install.
Ordered 1....fits my 2000 dodge ram 1500 5.2...
