29 AA speedo inner drive cable

njcar757 · Post by **njcar757** » February 10th, 2014, 5:44 pm

I'm working on my 29 AA, it has the oval speedometer, I have the outer conduit, it's about 82" long. Does any supplier sell just the inner drive cable?
Can I go to an automotive parts house and buy a universal drive cable and make it work?
thanks nick c

That's not the one for his truck, he needs AA-17262-A.

Try Sniders. I think I saw them there. Also had them for mixed up installations.

Bob, is it wrong based on fitment or just part #?

It fit on my 131.5...

I did a search on Parts Voice and they showed this place "Antique Auto Supply

Dave,

What kind of speedometer do you have? It looks like that package says 30, 36.

It's Oval...

Does the drive end change from 29-e30 to lt30? The length seems the same.

The drive end of the cable for the oval speedometer is round with a key and the
round speedometer cable drive end is square.

In addition to the oval speedometers having cables with a different end than the later ones, I'm pretty sure the cables were a larger diameter, like the housings. I don't know if a thin later style speedo cable would work in the large diameter housing. It might flop around too much.
