The bouncing is usually caused by the OEM lower cable that is too long (a subsequent change used a shorter cable - there was a bulletin on this I believe). The longer cable has too much bend in it and allows the cable to have accelerating rotations in it. Poor lubrication will usually amplify the acceleration and the bouncing. If it is lubricated with a proper, thin, non hardening lubricant it will usually minimize after some "settling in". Unfortunately, the longer lower cable also allowed moisture to collect in a trap effect in the cable behind the front wheel before it entered the car (there is usually some extra rubber piece over the cable too that help this) thus causing seizure of the cable in the housing and often destroying the angle drive when it seizes. The longer cable can cause various problems. Order the shorter cable from DMCH (the last time I tried they were out) or, get the Teflon coated cable from DPNW. DPNW's is a longer cable and initially had some of the bounce but after running a while is virtually all gone.

If so it will kink the cable when the hub is tight.
