speed warning dash???
 

What does a speed warning dash look like? I just drug home a truck that has a white pointer at about 55mph. I don't see how to move it.

THANKS. Thats it. Although I didn't see the knob by the light switch, it must be there. How does the knob control the indicator? Cable??

Its a cable that loops into speedo, then there should be a wire that hooks to back of setup on tin and then it connects to back buzzer mounted on inside firewall then to fuse box

what trucks are those found in?
ive never seen one before

Re: speed warning dash???
 

It was an option on our trucks

Re: speed warning dash???
 

...so does its buzz or light up a light?

..im assuming its basically just supposed to annoy the driver.

Re: speed warning dash???
 

it was optional on trucks... 69 was the last year for it though. It was more common on the bigger trucks.
A buzzer goes off, and it's kinda there to annoy the driver, but it's there so you know you are going X mph. You'd simply set it for 5 MPH over the speed limit, and you'd know when to let off the gas.

I have heard it was more common in the bigger trucks, but have never seen one in a bigger truck. I have only seen a few of these IN TRUCKS FROM THE FACTORY. 2 were 1/2 tons, and one was a 3/4 ton camper special.
I just used CAPS to clarify that these were factory optioned trucks. (anyone can add one)
Andy is correct on 69 being the last year. I believe the cruise control took the place of this. Nice find either way! I am sure it would look good hanging up in my basement. HA, Eric
