Speedo Cable
I need help figuring out what speedo cable I can use...here is what I have...72 short bed that used to have a 350/350 drive train...now I am running a 350TPI with a 700R4...My original speedo cable is too short to reach the new Auto Meter speedo...What can I use or what do I do...Please help.

Re: Speedo Cable
Just go to a good auto parts store and browse the catalog. Figure out what ends you have and what length you have and go from there.

Re: Speedo Cable
Take it out and measure it, there are many sizes available at parts stores, vendors here or ebay. But ya gotta know what you have now, there were several sizes used in our trucks.
