Cable construction; inner cable, outer cable,outer cover(wether protection).Liquid tape(Lowes) to seal the cut from the weather.

You can drive the car, your not going to hurt anything, you would have to be driving in water to get it soaked enough to even get water inside the cable.

I put on 2 coats of the liquid tape, I covered it really well, is that all there is to it?

I left it zip tied for now, can I move the clip that was holding it before? Or should I go with the hose clamp?

ok heres the pic, sorry if its too large and too close, its the best i could do with no jack and the wheel on

i believe the clamp was 2-1/2" or 3"

i opened the clamp, snaked it between the ABS and the toe rod and around the cable and tighten up

I see what you did, you clipped it in then zipped it to the trailing arm

Have you used your e-brake since doing that?
