Speed ohmeter cable

Check the gear in the tranny first!!! It's just plastic and is usually the cause. My 73's odometers stopped rolling but the speedometer still works (thank goodness). Pulling the speedometer is one thing I've been postponing since it's supposed to be a real PITA. If you have really itty-bitty hands it may be a little easier. Be sure to check the gear in the transmission first though since that's the likely reason for it to stop working and it's soooo much easier to repair than the gauge.

If it is the cable, it has to be removed from the housing on the speedo end. It's not easy but can be done w/o removing the dash or cluster. But I do have small hands and after doing this, they look like I'd wrestled a bobcat.

I have just replaced my Speedo tranny cable, gear and the "housing" to the gear in my 74 and it was a real PITA. To get at the back of the speedo i dropped the steering column and unscrewed the dash but left it in place so that i could get my hands in.
One thing to look at when you pull the tranny gear out for the speedo checking the "Housing" the gear sits in and the cable screws into because mine was really out of round causing the gear to get hung up

I can't even get my hands on it.
Doid you drop the exhaust on that side?
