so let me get this straight. You dont have a lot of money but yet you want to buy a used cable and then a new cable and now you're on to GPS's and electronic sensors??
i'll give my advice one more time. Buy a new cable and look at all the money you would save....

Wow. Just wow. Did your parents have any children that survived?
Saying what I would IDEALLY want, and what would be a neat gimmick is not the same as realistically getting a used cable to last me until I can either get a new OEM cable or do the conversion to an electronic unit.
You know what, nevermind. You're too dense to grasp it anyway.

That's for a 60 - like Spook said it looks like they are about 6" shorter than the 62's use.
I think if you can get a local shop to rebuild yours that may be the quickest... or just get new from CDan and drive with the flow of traffic (or likely a bit slower...).
As for you and Liam... agree to disagree. Disparaging remarks just inflame the situation. Amusing - yes. Productive - no.
I'd *love* a gadget like the GPS speedo... but it's a bit impractical (mainly price, and it's not a road only truck so wouldn't work correctly anyway). for close to $300 it damn well work anywhere and all the time. On something else i might be able to justify it where speed is way off and it would easily swap in.

Like Rob beat me to saying, unfortunately too short. Thanks though
lame that the 62's is $50 more for a 6" longer cable... Bet it probably has same connectors.
It does. I've used a 62 cable in a 60, the extra length was handy in being able to pull the dash cluster out a bit farther when plugging the cable to the speedo.
