JPP Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 Can anyone tell me when the speedometer cable goes through the firewall and into the cab? Picture if available. Quote
Bobacuda Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 The speedo cable on my B4B comes through the large, half moon hole in the center of the trans hump. When the toe-board is in place it completes the hole. The cable runs to the passenger side of the drivetrain. Quote
Phil363 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) The speedo cable on my B4B comes through the large, half moon hole in the center of the trans hump. When the toe-board is in place it completes the hole. The cable runs to the passenger side of the drivetrain. The speedometer cable does not go through the firewall. It goes between the bottom of the firewall and the top of the first toe board in the U shaped cutout as Bobacuda said above. There should be an anchor point on your firewall covering that guides it to the cab exit point below as well. I have a B-3-B and this is where my speedometer goes through as well. There was no rubber grommet that the speedometer cable would run through in that opening when I was in my tear down phase .. just the opening and the cable running through it.

Phil363 Posted March 8, 2016 Report Posted March 8, 2016 additional speedometer cable information (with commentary) During my tear down phase ... I followed the speedometer cable ..taking photos .... but the PO must have unclipped the speedometer cable from the clip on the transmission. I cleaned up my transmission several months ago and wondered if this clip was for the speedometer .. now I know 2 Quote
MBF Posted March 8, 2016 Report Posted March 8, 2016 I think that hooped clip is for the transmission end of the parking brake cable. Quote

I am sure that JBNeal above has it right for the speedometer cable routing. The parking brake cable is anchored to the bottom end of the long metal arm that is running straight down from where the speedometer clip is. Edited March 8, 2016 by Phil363 Quote
