Re: convert elec trans to man gauge speedo
I did that trans conversion but ---the "box" that actually takes an electronic pulse and converts it to a manual cable---was way expensive --like $350. some 5-6 years ago. so I drove my truck using the tach for speedo info. Can't remember the name of the company but it was available --Do some searching on speedo conversions via google and you may find the company--think it was in the midwest someplace~~.

Re: convert elec trans to man gauge speedo
You should be able to convert it to a manual speedo by replacing the electronic components with manual one. Drive gear, driven gear and housing could be used from a 700r4.

Re: convert elec trans to man gauge speedo
Cable X as mentioned above......works great. You can also set dip switches to scale your speedo for gear and tire changes.
