Melex, resistor stlyle, speed selector cables

[Neal 97 250]

I am trying to find the 4 cables that go from the stationary contact on the selector board to the resistor. It appears that all four are about 6" long hole to hole.

Two of mine have a heat resistant sleeve on them and two do not. The two that do not are completely shot and the two that have the sleeve really need replacing also. I am really having a hard time finding these four cables.

I e-mailed a cable company to see if they can make them and am waiting on a response. They are not hi-tech cables, just cables with a sleeve on them.

These cables look to be 6 gauge. Is this right? I am planning on replacing them with 4 gauge, is this safe?

My cart is a Melex 252. I believe it to be a '85 or '86 model, not sure. The serial number is 188748.

I took pics yesterday for you guys but I just moved and can't find my card reader yet. I will try again tonight.

Thanks guys,
Neal
