Bearsquest Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 In dire need of a speedo cable for a 87' MJ shortbed, 5 speed. I'm Bear from http://www.quest4rest.com/ and in April, I am leaving on a "18 month road trip" to raise 100k for Cancer patients. I was diagnosed last yr. and am paying it forward after some fellow club members brought my MJ, "Smokey" back to life. I am on the tail end of getting everything needed and done and the only thing left is a speedo cable for a 5 speed. Cherokees won't help. Thanks for any help you all may have. Bear
nitroxsteve Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Here is one I used on my 88 4.0 5 Speed. it is the one that goes from the t-case all the way to the speedo no cruse controll. Why will Cherokee cable not work for you? http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp ... fragment-4

Bear I have one from an 86, 4SP if it will work for you, I'll mail it out this week.
mvusse Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 Don't know why a Cherokee cable won't work, as the Cherokee and Comanche cables are the same and they have always worked for me. Just make sure it's from between 84 and 87 as they changed the end where it hooks up to the cluster slightly in 88. If you get one from a 4.0 automatic 4x4 it will be long enough to reach any other combination as well.
