What kind of bench is that, does it make a bed, if so, I could use one of those, to give me a bed and seat, the fold down in my van is a bitch, and not comfortable at all, sleeping will result in a back ache.

There were at least two sizes of speedometer cable threaded ends, and if the end at the speedometer is colored, like pink, you need to know which color to get it absolutely correct.

Did your van have cruise control? That would have an additional cable, which may have had a different size end...

There are a number of places which still make up cables to your specs. They would ask the correct questions to put together something for you.

This might help you ID your transmission:

It's what you learn after you know it all, that counts...

I did MORE sanding! rofl


Thanks for the chart and info, I always wondered about the dimensions. Kind of ironic, I broke my brother’s speedometer cable last week in his A100 and need to replace it.
