Another puzzle piece.
FJ60 reluctor ring kit from JTR.
Years ago Marlin Crawler was offering a device that installed onto the speedometer gear output on the t-case and supposedly created a digital signal that mimicked a VSS. Or so I thought. They no longer carry those things, and I can’t find anywhere mentioned that they were used in an LS conversion.
After conversating with Scrappy and Steve ( @samc2447 ) I picked up this do-dad.
JTR’s website doesn’t have any pics of the 60 series (split-case) kit. My concern was how the reluctor itself mounted. Turns out that they made the reluctor ring the nut, by threading part of the ID, and putting a half-inch drive square hole on the other end.
The issue for me is the clearance for the housing. Wasn’t able to install two bolts on the end plate. At some point soon, I’ll remove the housing and have a 1/2” or so taken off the end.

You are correct.. Dakota Digital also makes them. Speedometer 8K Pulse Generator - https://www.dakotadigital.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=product/product_id=109/mode=prod/prd109.htm
I think I used something like this on mine..
JTR makes a pretty sweet little setup.
Used the JTR setup on Frankencruiser/Bonnie. $270 back in 2019.
