After Market Speed Sensor
I have a 1993 F150 4.9L M5OD 4x4
I was planning on swapping out my drivetrain for a solid D44, NP435 & 205, and a 9" out back. I know that my truck uses a speedsensor in the 8.8 axle, i was wondering if there were any aftermarket speed sensors, or somthing that could be hooked up to the tranny or t-case (not sure where the old style trucks picked up speed info) Any ideas would be helpful, thanks.

Read though this site and see what Swamp Donkey did to his truck this may work for your truck. He put the sensor at the drive shaft.

Wow, he does have some fabrication skills... I would never be able to figure out how to do that speed sensor on my own... I was also thinking, i have the 205 Tcase and it is set up for cable speedo, is there something that could change cable rotations into the electrical impulses needed by latter model fords.
