Speedometer cable adapter solution needed
« on: September 02, 2015, 03:35:46 AM »
Hey guys, am in need of a speedometer cable solution for my 84. I'm looking for some sort of adapter I can install on the transfer case that will let me plug a standard speedo cable directly to the case, as in with the threaded end on the case. I've roasted a few cables on Z2 and I just can't find the Eagle cables(aside from the rebuild kits, BTDT) but I can find regular speedometer cables with ends in any length anywhere.

Thanks!

Auto zone has them I had to use the O-rings off the old one the new O-rings were too small
also RockAuto lists them under (interior) for both with and without cruise
