Where to find parts for 97 4.2 L engine

I have got all the pieces in my truck for adding cruise, except one, the cruise cable bracket. Anyone have a part number or know where I can find one? Also, I do need a new speedometer, mine tells me I am going 35 all the time. I have had a heck of a time trying to find one, every place I have tried says "Give us a call about the part your looking for" I can't stand those, because all they want to do is try to sell you everything else you don't need. Thanks for your help!

No direct knowledge of where you can get what you need.
Salvage yards would be a good try, but maybe you have already been down that road.

Check out the FTE sponsors. Some good variety of vendors. Maybe one of them can help.

Yes, unfortunately, I don't have a great deal of salvage yards near me, and any used part sites I have found all say "call to check for parts." I have yet to find a vendor on the site that sells these types of parts either.
