68 XR-7 Speedo Cable

Hey guys,

just wondering if anyone knows off hand how long the 68 XR-7 speedo cable is for the C4 trans? there are two options available on RockAuto for 60" and 83". I haven’t gotten around to measuring mine yet and I thought someone may know. Also, my speedo needle jumps around while driving and makes a ticking noise, I assume this can be fixed by replacing the cable? I’ve tried lubing the cable with only minor improvement.

Thanks!

The C4/ C6/ 3 speed manual use a shorter cable. The longer one is needed for 4 speed manual top loader transmissions.
