6' Unimatic Cable

The 6' Unimatic Cable from B and M AUTOMOTIVE is a professional-grade shifter cable engineered for hot rodders, restorators, and performance enthusiasts who demand reliable manual transmission control. This cable is the backbone of any B&M Unimatic shifter system, translating driver input into precise gear selection with the consistency that separates a well-tuned build from an unpredictable one. Whether you're upgrading a classic muscle car or fine-tuning a custom street rod, this cable delivers the mechanical integrity that experienced mechanics trust for floor-shift and column-mount applications.

Built with a steel cable core and protective plastic liner, the 6' Unimatic Cable features threaded and eyelet end connections that ensure secure, repeatable fastening without slippage or play. The 2-1/2 inch stroke geometry matches the mechanical throw requirements of B&M's Unimatic shifter lineup, allowing full gear travel from Park or Reverse through overdrive without binding or lost motion. The blue finish provides quick visual identification in engine bays and helps prevent mix-ups during installation on multi-vehicle projects. At 1.15 lbs, the cable's weight distribution doesn't affect suspension geometry, and the 6-foot length accommodates a wide variety of transmission tunnel layouts and shifter mounting positions.

This cable is essential for anyone restoring or upgrading to a B&M Unimatic shifter system, including street rods, muscle cars, and modern restorations where factory cable geometry no longer applies. Installation requires routing the cable through the transmission tunnel with proper support clips to prevent vibration fatigue—a critical step that separates a long-lasting installation from a premature failure. Mechanics and DIY builders should verify transmission type and shifter body compatibility before ordering, as this cable is specifically engineered for B&M Unimatic applications and will not function with OEM or competing shifter brands. Proper cable tension adjustment during setup ensures smooth, positive shifts and extended service life.
