Speedometer cable issues (1 Viewer)

[Dogdoc90]

My 1970 pig had a transmission upgrade to an early fj60 transmission. The speedometer cable fits into the transmission fine but won’t connect with the gauge. I thought this was the original cable but I guess not. Anybody have a cable that will work wit this original gauge?

I’l check my parts stash and see what’s there. Cold and snowing, right now, but will check in next couple of days.

@LAMBCRUSHER did a gage conversion in his 55 with 60 parts. Look it up

My gauge though is pre 1971 so wouldn’t I need to order the older cable so it would connect correctly at the gauge? The problem is I believe this cable goes with the fj60 transmission that was installed in my pig. Where could I find the older cable? Thanks
