Questions: I’m running a D18 transfer case And the speedo seems to be getting Transfer Case fluid oggered up through the t-case and leaks are the speedo. The cable I have is the grey shielded one with the 1” barrel but at the t-case. Is this a common issue? Is the cable core wrapped backward? It’s perplexing.
Question By: Frank on Jan 28 2020 1:32 AM
Sounds like your transfer case may be just a bit overfilled or more likely you dont have the vent installed at the top of the housing of the D18 part number: A934 and it s building pressure. They never used a seal there.

Questions: I'm replacing a speedo cable that is currently 90% missing altogether. Which end fits in the speedo and which the transfer case. Long Prong goes in which? Hope that makes sense. '47 CJ2a
Question By: Mike Hauser on Jan 6 2020 9:20 PM
The inner cable should be equalized in the outer cable so equal parts go into each end. When you go to screw it in- you'll see the fittings on each end and their mate.

Questions: on the hex nut (transfercase) end does it come with gasket, one picture looks like it if not do you have it available
Question By: Richard Lacy on May 7 2019 2:56 PM
No there is no gasket with it. We usually use alittle sealant. But really your fill level is not that high.

Questions: This cable seems to be a little too long for my 1965 cj5. The outer cable is fine, but the inner cable seems too long. It will not insert into the speedo head enough to allow the end to catch the threads. I have checked at the trans. and it seems to be inserted as far as it will go, about a half an inch. It just does not insert into the head enough to allow the screw to start. Can the inner cable be trimmed? thanks
Question By: bill on Apr 8 2018 3:48 AM
It is correct. Make sure the inner cable is equalized between both speedo head and transfer case. Call me toll free. Mike M. and we can try to help too.

Questions: I'm a little confused. What's the difference between this cable and the $99 cable also shown for this year model range?
Question By: Doug Lewis on Oct 18 2017 3:37 PM
The military cable had a inner tab on the end of the cable. They are not interchangeable with each other for it to function.

That is because you have a military speedometer cable/transfercase. That style is part number: MSPEEDO - this part 643797 will work for you however. They are interchangable.
