I was looking at ordering a new speedo cable for the 67 K10 SWB, and there are 3 different lenghts....61,68,79 inches long. Any ideas??

I grabbed a parts book from a repo dealer and it said 68" 2wd and 75" 4 wd. I never measured mine.

I never measured the speedo cable on my K10 but since it plugs in to the transfer case, which sits behind the tranny, it probably is 7" longer than a 2wd version. Keeping in mind that the tail piece on the tranny that the 2wd cable plugs in to is not there on a 4x4.
