Detailed Description

ATP Parts Y-909 is a mechanical speedometer cable designed for vehicles that use a transmission-driven speedometer connection. The cable is specified with a male post end, snap ferrule end, smooth plastic jacket, and no-thread connection points, making it a practical OE-style replacement for worn or sluggish original cables.

This part cross-references Anchor 3247 for the same application.
