I'm in the middle of changing my standard 4 speed box for a 4 speed plus overdrive and I've hit a minor issue. Hoping someone on here more in the know can help.... The speedo cable gear is different. The 1st picture below shows the original 4 sp which has a square connection that screws in place. The 2nd pic is from the O/D box which has a more rounded connection that seems to push on and be held in by a clip and nut. Unfortunately the 2 gears aren't interchangeable as they're different gear sizes inside. So does anyone know what cable I need to order here, just in case it's not as obvious a "speedo cable for a mk2 Transit with OD". I guess I don't actually know if this new box is from a mk2 or possibly a mk1 or 3.

There are two types of cable fitted to Mk1 and 2's, I can look see if I have the one for your O/D box

Cheers bud. Let me know if you find anything, though I don't mind asking my local factors to see if they can source one - just needed to know I wouldn't look stupid ordering another wrong one.

You would have to look at the cable they have to check the end.

Well my local factors can't help. To be fair to them they don't supply ANY speedo cables any more. Hopefully this won't be a problem part to find and I've messaged Dave (aka Bentley Boys) to see if he can help.
