EP, I have not done one, but have split several tractors with them. Main thing is to be careful with the cable. Some times clips or the threads can be aggravating. Take yout time and align cable as straight as possible. They don't like sharp bends. Make sure cable meshes with the opening it goes into.Lube it properly with powdered graphite. Hand tight is plenty on most applications. HTH Tracy Martin

Thanks Tracy, I appreciate your reply. The powdered graphite is a great tip and I'll make sure I have all day to do it. Thanks again!
