Title: cruise control cables
Post by: lrk on July 03, 2010, 08:02:20 AM
I am the owner of a 76 Dodge, with 440, was wondering if anyone knows where I can get the spedo cables for the cruise control.... the owner before me just bought the long one and bypassed the cruise control unit!!   ???

Hello Irk,  you can have new cables made at United Speedometer in Riverside, Ca. or maybe find them at a salvage yard. Goggel  United Speedometer and check they do it all !      Hank Out

Go to Rosco web sight. They sell the replacement parts and they just go in. I added one on before I found out about this one.

Sorry. It is Rostra cruise controls. They make both the handle ones and the ones that mount on the dash.
