Default U/C Speedometer Cable

Hi Hummer,
The outer length is approx 3160 mm and is a flexible 5/8" dia. outer casing.
See there is an extra wrap for protection at the Diff end.
See attached pictures, showing the speedo end and the diff end, along with the two securing metal clips. The inner is easy enough to determine, as it would probably protrude about 1/2'' and the end will be squared off to suit your speedo and the drive gear from the diff has also a key that slots into your gear The inner is normally secured with a crimped clip , back from the protruding end on each one, I might need another look in my parts to find a picture of the inner for you ,cheers Andrew.

Here's are pictures of the bottom end of an early Brit. U.Carrier speedo cable.
Note the thrust washer. The armour is located in the hole at the lower end.
