I recently ordered a new cable but for got to order the O-ring for the cable. Is there an alternative place to get this? Is there a HD version that I can go and get?

Super,

I almost never use an O-ring from the equipment manufacturer. I go to the local bearing wholesaler and get a whole package of the correct O-ring for a few bucks. Take the cable along to the wholesaler and the counter man will figure out what size you need.

Usually a drop or two of oil on the O-ring will help with installation.
