FAQ

What is a speedometer cable and how does it work?
A speedometer cable is a flexible, spinning shaft that mechanically connects your transmission (or transfer case) to your speedometer, sending rotation and allowing the gauge to display your vehicle’s speed.

Are your speedometer cables universal or vehicle-specific?
We offer both! Direct-fit cables are made for specific makes and models, while universal cables can be trimmed or adapted to fit custom or retrofitted gauge setups.

How do I choose the right cable for my vehicle?
Check your vehicle’s make, model, year, and gauge type—or measure your old cable’s length and end fittings. Our team is happy to help with sizing and selection.

How do I install a speedometer cable?
Most cables simply screw or snap into the back of the speedometer and the drive on the transmission. Always route the cable with gentle bends and avoid sharp kinks.

Will your cables fit aftermarket and digital speedometers?
We carry cables for many factory-style and mechanical aftermarket speedometers; for digital gauges, you may need a sender or adapter. Check product compatibility details.

What are signs my speedometer cable needs replacement?
Symptoms include erratic needle movement, squeaking/ticking from the dash, inaccurate readings, or a complete loss of speedo function.

Do your cables include installation hardware?
Most direct-fit cables include factory-style fittings; universal kits may include hardware or require reuse of OEM clips. See product description for details.

What if my cable doesn’t fit or arrives damaged?
Customer satisfaction is our priority. Contact us within 7 days if your cable is the wrong type, size, or arrives defective for a hassle-free exchange, replacement, or refund.
