Nitro Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Hi. My wc52 has been fitted with the transfer box off a 6x6 wc. Can someone please tell me where the speedo cable goes on the 6x6 wc as I assume it goes in the transfer box as it has overdrive but can't see where it could be. There is no output drive on the gearbox just a blanking bolt. Any help would be great. Thanks. Quote
sharky Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 is it not on the gearbox itself on the housing behind the handbrake drum assembly Quote
Gordon_M Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 I don't know exactly where, but you are right, it does have to go on the output side of the transfer case, and with a longer cable too, of course. The transfer case is 1:1 and around 1.5:1, so if you hooked to the ordinary fitting on the gearbox and put it in low range you would be around 50% out of true. Quote
Nitro Posted December 18, 2013 Author Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks. Found it on the transfer box under some mud. All I need now is the longer speedo cable. Quote

mogmaner Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 I have had good service from speedo graph, made a new cable for my munga charged £15 , they also do gages and clocks. Quote
Nitro Posted December 18, 2013 Author Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks for the advice chaps, does anyone know if the driven end of the cable is the same whether fitted to a gear box or transfer box? And thanks to Dave, just might take you up on your kind offer. :-D Quote
Gordon_M Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Fittings are identical I think. I seem to remember you can use the 6 x 6 cable on the 4 x 4 by using up all the extra length Quote
