ATP Parts Y-879 is an 81-inch speedometer cable for older Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and American Motors applications. It connects the speedometer to the transmission and replaces a worn cable that can bind, break, or respond slowly.

Key Features

• 81-inch overall length for listed applications
• Nut end and male post end configuration
• Smooth plastic jacket for a clean, flexible cable assembly
• No-thread, 5/8-18 female thread specification
• OE-style fit and function for direct replacement use

Detailed Fitment and Design

This ATP Parts Y-879 speedometer cable is built to match the original part’s fit and function for compatible Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, and American Motors vehicles. The cable’s 81-inch length, nut end, and male post end support the listed cruise-to-transmission, speed control, and speedometer-to-cruise applications. It is a practical replacement for vehicles such as the Dodge Diplomat, Plymouth Gran Fury, and Chrysler Fifth Avenue when the original cable has become sluggish or damaged. This part cross-references Pioneer Automotive Industries CA-3024 and Anchor 3198 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Restoring speedometer needle movement when the original cable binds

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the 81-inch length, end types, and thread specification before installation. Review the vehicle notes carefully, especially cruise-control, fleet, taxi, lower, and transmission-to-speedometer routing details. Confirm the exact application for your Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, or American Motors model before ordering.
