I bought this a couple years ago, still working amazing. It was super simple to work in and gave me the ability to have the customer dash I wanted.

QUESTIONS:
I have a 1978 Toyota land cruiser FJ40 would this unit work for your 1491? Thanks
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we do not have a P/N: 1491. However, this will work with any of our speedometers.

I have a 1971 Jeepster Commando with OEM Buick 225 V6 and TH400 trans - is this the correct sensor to facilitate my application and operate the AutoMeter Arctic White Speedo?
Thank you for your inquiry. The 5291 is designed to operate with all of our electric speedometers except those designed for GPS operation.

I have a 66 Chevrolet Corvair. The speedometer cable doesn't come from the trans, but from the left front wheel. The cable also has a female thread on connector, not a male. Is there a female to female adapter available?
Thank you for your question. We do not have one, unfortunately.

The speedo/tach gage is new to me I have a 440 motor with a 927 toque flight transmission I didn't know about having to have a sine generator. what do I need and is that all I need thanks mike
Hello Mike! Your 440 with a 927 should have a threaded speedometer cable output in which this 5291 would be the sender you would use.

Have an NP203 transfer case. Do I need any adapter or does this screw straight in?
Hello!
If this is an earlier model with a threaded cable output for your speedometer, our 5291 should screw right in.

Do you make a hall type speed sensor that has provision to also attach a mechanical speedo cable to ? I would like to keep my original mechanical speedo and also send a signal to my pcm without using a wheel sensor or external tailshaft sensor.
We do not offer anything like this. You would only have the option of using a mechanical speedometer of switching over to an electronic speedometer.

I have a 85 s10 T5 trans (mechanical speedo) with a 1993 2.5 engine Will this 5291 adapter give me the correct pulses per mile for the 1993 ECM and still allow me to connect the mechanical speedo cable?
Hi Rober,
This 5291 speed sensor is designed to operate our electric speedometers. It will not supply a correct VSS signal to your ECM.
Thanks,
Jim

Have a 87 gmc jimmy need transfer case to convert from cable to electric
Thank you for your inquiry. The 5291 will work to drive our electric speedometers on your GM product. It will not drive OEM speedometers.
