Both the 3spd Ford and the NP435 take the same type (2A) of gear and the same cable assy. so that's not the problem.
I would pull the cable out of the transmission and spin it by hand and watch the speedometer to see if it moves. If it does, then you would want to look at the speedo. drive gear in the transmission.
If it doesn't move, pull the speedo. and spin the speedo. itself by hand to see if it moves. If it does look long and hard at the cable assy to see if its bad.
