90 YJ Speedo Cable Question
Hi all.
A quick question on the speedometer cable for a 90 YJ. My speedometer needle has started jumping at low speeds and clicks when initially starting out. So I figure I need to pull the inner cable out of the cable jacket and lube it. However, I unclipped the cable from back of the speedometer head and tried to extract the inner cable with a pair of needle nose pliers. It wouldn't budge. Then I removed the cable from the transfer case and tried to push it up. It still would not move. Does anybody know if the inner cables is designed to be removed from the outer jacket (so that they can be lubed), or do I just need to replace the entire cable (or do I just need to pull harder)? Thanks mpv |

It should have come out the speedometer end, must be coming apart
and the frayed cable knurled the sheath, essentially riveting it in place. I'd give a good pull, what do you have to loose.
