Did a search :flipoff2: I can't seem to find out where to find a Speedo adapter to go to my stock cable (still in place) to my np205. The cable shop was lame fawk them ("uh well um I dunno...") so I turn to the wheelers. I can't afford anymore speeding tickets, and I don't want to use my tach as a speedo.

I don't know what your X-case looks like but I went to a speedo shop with a wrench and just tested different gears in my tranny. I figured out what my speed should be at a certain rpm,( I can give you a quick formula if you like) in fourth gear. I bought the one that worked best. Most of the speedo shops have a bunch of used speedo gears and they'll just let you try different ones. In order to get one of those speedo adapters to work right, a good speedo guy has to calculate the numbers and then gear the box, they usually cost a few bucks. So if you just change the gears yourself, you'll save alot of money with less moving parts.

I had good luck with Nevada Speedo, I think her name is Judy. I would give the phone number but my web server is down, so I can't get access to my web site (arg!)..... anyway, they were able to make an adapter so that I could drive my electric speedo off of an early bronco dana 20, so they might be able to do what you want to do.

I still have the gear i need a coupling section of cable to reach the end of my doubler (the 205) and adapt from the size of the stock fsj to a 205 cable.
