Hello fellow Hi-Lo brothers and sisters

I just purchased a cable kit from Midget RV to replace the snapped cable on my 2006 Hi-Lo 24 towlite does anyone know of a DIYinstructional video or guide on how to do this replacement procedure? I’d be very grateful. I am thinking of parting with my beloved trailer but want to fix and clean before potentially selling. Preparing to move out of California regretfully.

Welcome to the forum. See link below on cable replacement. I haven't had to do it, but plenty of members have. Good luck!

Someone posted a good description on the forum. He replaces all four cables at the same time. I read then printed it so I could reread as I progressed. I did purchase a cable cutter but did not pull the cable tight enough when I installed it. I should have used a come-a-long to pull the cable tighter. I did take off the wheel for better access to the cable adjustments. Find the post, read and reread it or print it out like I did before starting.
