Five speed box - speedo drive
chrisg - 12/10/05 at 05:19 PM

Hey Up,

I'm fitting a five speed Granada box in place of my Cortina four speeder.

The bit where the speedo drive fits is a round hole with an electronic unit in it - three wires out.

I'd like to keep the same insruments so I'd like a cable drive.

Now I've looked at a another five speed box which HAS a cable drive - it's completely different - it has a raised collar round a smaller hole.

So the question is:-

Is there a cable drive that fits in he round hole I've got in my box?

I know it's a later type nine, did all the later ones have the electronic unit?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Chris

Could it be that it has a hole for the Electronic drive on one side and a normal mechanical on the other? My MT 75 seems to have. Ignore me if this is cobblers.

It doesn't have two holes but it was pointed out that the speedo drive on mine is on the oposite side to the normal cable drive - looks like I'll be buying an electronic speedo!

Thanks for the reply.

Cheers

Chris
