GY22387 PTO Control Cable Compatible with John Deere 107S D100 D105 D110 D130 D140 E100 E110 E120 E130 X105 -X107 Series Tractors

What It Is

The GY22387 PTO control cable engages and disengages the mower deck blades on compatible John Deere lawn tractors. It replaces the factory cable when the original stretches, snaps, or becomes stiff over time.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your tractor model is listed: John Deere 100-series (D100, D105, D110, D130, D140), E-series (E100, E110, E120, E130), or X105–X107 series. This cable is an aftermarket replacement for OEM part GY22387. Measure the total cable length (housing + inner wire) against your old cable; variations exist between deck sizes (42”, 48”, 54”). Check that the cable end fittings match your PTO lever and deck engagement arm—most are identical, but older or modified decks may differ.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Moderate. Requires removing the hood or dash panel to access the cable routing. Allow 30–60 minutes.
• Quality: Aftermarket cable with metal ends and plastic housing. May feel slightly less smooth than OEM, but works reliably for typical residential use.
• Common gotcha: The cable can bind if routed too tightly. Leave a slight loop near the engagement arm for free movement.
• Lubrication: Apply light oil (e.g., WD-40 or silicone spray) to the inner wire before installation to reduce friction and extend life.

Should You Buy It

If your John Deere 100-, E-, or X105–X107 series tractor’s PTO cable is worn, sticky, or broken, this $14.99 aftermarket cable is a solid, budget-friendly fix. It’s not as premium as OEM, but for occasional residential mowing, it works well and saves money.
