Looking to replicate this transmission cable bracket.

Good day all! This is my first post, but I've recieved allot of information from this site in the past

I'm looking to replicate this for my Yanmar 2GM, there isn't a part listed in the parts catalogue for this piece. I'm not sure who's boat this is, any help would be appreciated!

The aluminum part looks suspiciously home made. It shouldn’t be too difficult to duplicate, just a piece of aluminum strap, drilled and tapped.

When you close in on the photo, I'd be inclined to say the bracket is SS by the nicely rounded edges and heavy indent on the top along with the identical surface of the SS machine screws.

Oddly enough, it's the striated surface of the of the piece of flat bar between the shifter cable and support arm :

................ that are very likely aluminum.

I'd check with McMaster Carr or Amazon for a SS bracket as you don't know what the loading on the bracket will be when in service and it'll look better than an aluminum homemade job.

Yeah, it definitely isn’t stock.

the one on my 2GM2F looks completely different (and the cable angle is also different.

I don’t have a great photo of the bracket, but here is something…

The aluminum bracket significantly changes the angle between the cable and the shift lever on the transmission. This can make shifting much more difficult which can cause excessive wear on the transmission's clutches.

Since you mention this isn't your boat, what problem are you trying fix by adding that bracket?

The clamps that hold the cable onto the bracket would be available anywhere that does engine rigging. Each manufacturer makes their own cable clamping system depending on cable routing. This looks very custom. What's your situation, installation and what problem are you trying to solve?
