What part is this?

Whats the part called that is plugged into the transmission and your speedo cable connects to it? Mine is leaking transmission fluid and need to be replaced.

Thanks

I think it's called a speedometer gear housing. If it's leaking, it probably needs a new o-ring.

Could be a speedometer gear reducer.

If it has the reducer,those attatch "to" the transmission and "could" leak there. They go between the end of the speedometer cable (that attaches "to" the transmission) and the transmission. Same thing,prolly needs a new o-ring.
