What It Is

This is a replacement control cable (OEM part 532183567 / 183567) that connects the engine throttle or blade brake control lever to the carburetor or brake mechanism on specific Poulan, Husqvarna, and Craftsman walk-behind mowers.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

  • Model numbers: Fits Poulan 5521CHV, 5521RS; Husqvarna 5521CHV, 5521RS; Craftsman models using part 182755 or 532182755; also fits Weed Eater models with the same cable. Check your mower’s model tag (under the rear flap or on the deck).
  • Deck size: Primarily for 21-inch deck mowers with a 60-109 engine (Briggs & Stratton or similar). Not for zero-turn or riding mowers.
  • Cable length: The cable is approximately 36 inches from end to end. Measure your old cable’s housing length and inner wire travel to confirm. This is a direct OEM replacement, not a universal cable.

Key Things to Know

  • Quality: OEM-grade cable with plastic housing and zinc-plated ends. Holds up well in normal use, but avoid kinking during installation.
  • Installation difficulty: Moderate. Requires removing the old cable from the lever and engine bracket, then routing the new one without sharp bends. A small wrench and pliers are needed.
  • Common gotcha: The cable end fittings are specific—check that the barrel ends match your control lever and carburetor bracket. Some aftermarket versions may not click in securely.
  • Lubrication: Apply a drop of light oil to the inner wire at both ends after installation to prevent rust and binding.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if your mower’s control cable is frayed, stuck, or snapped—this is the correct OEM replacement for common 21-inch Poulan, Husqvarna, and Craftsman mowers. At $8.99 with a 4.6-star rating, it’s a reliable fix for a common failure point. Skip it only if you need a universal cable or your mower uses a different attachment style.
