4-5 speed change whoops! no speedo[ALL/1998] posted by Bruce Crump on

So I had to be a smart guy when the OD unit seized to my tranny, and swap it out for a late model 5 speed. Having done all the research (I thought) and doing the swap WHAT! no speedo output on the tranny, OH NO the output in later model cars in in the diff. I dont miss the speedo so much, as doing the math with the tach isn't bad, but when to do oil changes and timing belts etc. could result in some lost sleep. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
