Cable Refresh Bundle — King Stainless Throttle + Clutch Cables + KING NUT Adjuster | VW Split Window Bus 1950–1967
Throttle and clutch cables age together, and the job is easiest when you do both at once. This bundle packages the two King Performance heavy-duty stainless steel cables for your VW Split Window Bus 1950–1967 with the King Performance KING NUT billet clutch adjuster, so the whole cable system is refreshed in one afternoon — and it costs $13 less than buying the three parts separately. Both cables are made in the USA, use stainless steel instead of galvanized wire, and are thicker than stock, so they resist the stretch, fraying and rust that make old cables fail.
What's Included
- King stainless Bus throttle cable, 140" Split length (C05) — $39 separately
- King 3116mm 1/8" stainless Split Bus clutch cable (C06) — $49 separately
- King Performance KING NUT billet clutch adjuster — $30 separately
Throttle cable length: we ship the 140" Split length of the King Bus throttle cable for this bundle.

- VW Type 2 Split Window Bus: 1950–1959 and 1962–1967

Installation Tips
- Install the clutch cable first, lubricated, from the pedal end through the tunnel tube.
- Inspect the Bowden tube while you are in there. The Bowden tube is the curved steel sleeve at the rear frame horn that the clutch cable passes through on its way to the transaxle lever. A cracked or collapsed tube, or the wrong amount of sag, causes clutch chatter and premature cable wear. Replace it if it is cracked, collapsed or has lost its bend.
- Set clutch pedal free play (about 10–20mm) with the KING NUT.
- Install the throttle cable, set full throttle with the pedal on the floor and confirm a clean return to idle.
