speedometer fix

[comanche-man22]

i need to know where the speedometer cable is located at and how to pull it cuz i need to replace mine...pics would be nice but the info is more important!

Transfercase tailshaft housing. You will see a cable go in right there. it leads up, alongside fuel/brake lines, and into the firewall, to the back of the gauge cluster.

alright so how do i take it out?

[rockhardzj]

I/m not sure, I know the tcase end comes out by one bolt, and then a good tug job.

 

The speedo end, I pryed the plastic part away, but i think I broke the plstic part doing it... :roll:

 

I went electronic anyways, so I could care less... :D

 

Just be careful on the speedo end.

I'm at the speedo end and i am having a hell of a time i have got down to where you can see the blue plastic piece where everything screws into and i can see where there is a plastic clip like thing behind the rpm gauge that has to be popped out and i don't know how to take off the rpm gauge without hurting it...i need some serious advice!! 8)

Mine was like a child proof cap, I had to squeeze both sides and it popped right off.

I pulled the whole cluster out as much as I could and reached behind to unhook it.

You don't. There is NO need to remove the tachometer to get at the speedometer cable. The speedo cable is a push-on connection to the speedometer head. You squeeze the two sides of the white nylon retainer and the cable comes right off the speedo.

i got it done but the little electronic clip on the back behind the tachometer that is where i had trouble! but thank you guys
