I've heard this over and over but if that little cable isn't on the nose  
gear and your landing speed is a little hot, you will hit the nose gear 
first,  because the nose gear hangs down lower,  and enter to what many is  
called a JC maneuver, as in "J-----s C------t!!!!!!!!!!!
It is also called a PIO, or pilot induced oscillation and is the primary  
reason a lot of Ercoupes have a bent firewall.  I say keep the cable and  
save the Ercoupe.
