If I'm understanding your question. There should be a rubber boot then barrel adjuster before you
get to the derailler, then after a rubber boot before you get to the cable bolt heres a picture what
mine looks like (been bounced off a few rock lately):

I'm not running one of those cable shorteners, just a larger loop and straight through shielded
cable zip tied onto the frame. The XTR does not have the strongest spring so if you have exposed
cable runs and ride dusty /muddy stuff the cables will affect shifting so I strongly recommend going
with one shot of covered cable the whole run. I have 650 miles on this set-up the past 3 months
riding dusty/sandy trails and have yet to adjust my rear derailler. Have fun!

I have a question about how to route the cable as I'm wondering if I'm missing a part of the
derailler.
After the cable goes around the cable pulley is it just suppose to go through the hole in the mech
before it is attached by the cable bolt?
It seems when I do this that the bare cable rubs the sides of the hole -am

I know I'm not explaining this very well but I cant find anything on the
net
Quoted message said:that can give me a diagram of what the RD-M951 is suppose to look at. Even shimanos site doesnt
list any exploded views or service instructions...
An exploded parts diagram would be perfect or even a picture of a working set up would be useful
as I just wanna make sure I have the inner and out cables running in the correct order.
Thanks for any help you can supply...
