p24-1953 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 i guess the graphite at the dash wasnt it. i heard a pop and the needle droped on my test run. so where is the best place to get a new cable? is this a napa item or an andy b. item? Quote
oldmopar Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 I got one a few years ago form Roberts http://www.robertsmotorparts.com/index.html Quote
RobertKB Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 They come up fairly regularly on ebay so keep a watch for one there. Quote
martybose Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Any old-fashioned speedo shop can make one up for you; when I had my speedo calibrated they replaced the cable at no extra charge. Marty Quote
HughForrest Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 Marty- Where did you find a shop in the bay area? I need some work done and can only find Palo Alto Speedometer. $$$$! Quote
Guest rockabillybassman Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 I had a new inner and outer cable made, ours are longer because of the right hand drive. Cost me $100NZ, which is about $78 US. Speedo is as steady as a new car now. Quote

Speedometer Electric in Hayward (510) 276-1522 They refurbed my speedo head, then used a gearbox and a stub cable to correct for my much smaller tire size. Marty Quote
dndrodshop Posted March 7, 2008 Report Posted March 7, 2008 There is a speedo shop in Milwaukee. A couple years ago they made a custom cable and housing for my 440/727 to stock speedo for about $65.00. Quote
