R 685ST transmission swap/electric speedometer


Recommended Posts

I did a transmission swap from a Mack 5 speed to a Eaton 8LL. In doing this I’m going from a mechanical drive speedo to electric. Wanting to know if anyone has a wiring diagram for speedo to sensor. 5 wires coming from speedometer to the 2 wires on sensor .

 

thanks

I'm just throwing this out there...I restore vintage KW's. In two of my '78 A models, I went to a GPS driven speedometer from speedhut.com. They are fantastic in my opinion, because they don't care about component changes, tire sizes, or anything because they're satellite driven units. I LOVE them. And for around $280.00, they're less than OEM ones. Highly recommended for this exact type of deal.
