Okay, had cruise at one point, was removed. 2 piece speedo cables. Purchased a new on for a non-cruise truck. Fit's great at Speedo portion, wrong size connector at transmission. Anyone ever run into this?

Thanks,
Bib

Looks to me that when you go to the non-cruise the transmission sensor uses a smaller fitting ? If that what the problem is?
If that's the case, maybe just buy the non-cruse fitting that goes into the transmission? Or find an adaptor to connect the two cables without the cruise servo.

Yes sir, new cable has a smaller fitting. Such a pain. Thank you.

RacerHog

lol. Copy the pain.... Not sure it you have a local speedo repair shop near by.. But if i recall correctly. Someone use to sell a adapter reducer for those... ???

Take a picture of both ends of your cable ends needed and a basic leighs and let me see if I can find a match for you?

Bib

Will do and thank you.

Okay, I McGiver'ed it. Removed the sheath end of the new speedo to the trans. Removed the exact amount of ,sheath from the original, keeping the connector to the trans intact. Sleeved, tape and boom. Working like a champ.

OK, Thin, May need to use a hose and 2 hose clamps id the tape cant hold it together.... But good thinking on the cheep way out.... Cheers... Nice work !!
