Ford sells speedometer cable lube, but it's actually white lithium grease.
Only a very thin coating of grease should be used on the entire length of a speedometer cables inner core. You do not grease the inside of the housing itself (which might be a tad difficult).
If you use too much grease, the inner core may bind up, and will not turn in the housing.
You can buy a replacement speedo cable's inner core from any autoparts store.
Just cut it to the correct length, and install it.
