I used a factory replacement cable on my 65. I'm running a T350 as well. Most all restoration parts places carry them. You might check out the board vendors. They have their own section on this forum.

The speedo cable is carried by almost every vender, pretty common item. Come for either short or long bed and fairly easy to install.

Don't you have to change the gear to a different color to match your tire size?

Any parts store has them. they go by length. Practically all replacements are plastic. They are pretty hard to work with. Some of the specialty suppliers , Classic Parts for one, has them in the metal original caseing. They are a lot easier to work with & are more original.
