[TR] TR4A speedometer cable

[Stan Foster]

Even with the TR3 you can use the non-OD shorter cable and the right angle drive and route the cable shortest path to the speedo. I rather like eliminating the right angle drive as the repro units are a failure point and instead use the proper routing with the longer cable.

The overdrive cables are 90 inches or so, as they come off the rear of the overdrive and take a circuitous route under the passenger floor and in front of the battery to the speedometer.  I 'd be interested to know how you managed to get a non-OD cable to reach the speedometer in an overdrive car!

So I had ordered a new speedometer cable for my TR4A from Moss and it’s about 30 inches too long! I have a a-type overdrive and double checked the catalog part number which is what I have. In checking my old cable, it is the non-overdrive piece. What’s the deal?
