I'm building back my '76 FJ40, and I question whether there are pros and cons to installing the original speedmarker that was mounted on the firewall. (Pic below) It uses a 2 piece speedo cable and I need to replace the cable.
I would rather get a single cable to run directly to the speedo without the speedmarker in between.
What exactly is a speedmarker? Does it provide an electrical signal to other components? I read where it provides an alternate means of determining how many miles are on the truck, which I really don't care about.
Also below are a few build pics. I know it's not a purist paint color, but it is Toyota Lunar Rock.
Thanks!
