Trailer Slave Cable

[longrange4u]

All, was looking for a new slave cable to connect from my M1081 LMTV to my wonderful matching trailer! The one I have works, but is dry-rotted and will likely fail sooner rather than later. Ideas?

Do you mean the 'intervehicular cable' for the lights? Many of the vendors carry them or if the ends are good you can get some replacement wires and build a new cable.

Yea thats the one... the ends are what appear to be failing. The rubber is degrading to a point it's beginning to fall apart.

Is this the same style as a semi tractor cable with a 12 pin plug on either end? If so what's the length?

Sounds like to me he is looking for the 7 pin round terminal pallak style plug. The military one I got with my truck was a straight wire with some wear from dragging on the ground. You can get the cables through Napa and even get the style that is coiled like a phone cord.

you can use the commercial 7 pole cord. Found at any truck stop or truck parts. IV cables are out there but the 7pin is more easily available.

LMTVs have both 12pin nato plugs and 7 pole rounds. The trailer has the same connections side by side on their box

Is this the cable that you speak of? About 20 feet long? If not the one you need, do you know what this one is?
