Our speedo isn't cable driven, its electronic, although the methodology of running it from a rotating part should be the same. We manufactured a
sprung aluminium bracket to run the speedo pickup off the diff output. The only problem you may have with a cable driven speedo, is correcting any
reading errors. On an electronic speedo, this is done by using a speedohealer or yellowbox. Might be slightly more difficult on a mechanically driven
speedo tho. HTH
