What year did it go from a cable to the tranny to a wire to the vss? I thought on a 91 it would still be a cable

I think 90 was the last they had it on the trans or transfer case.

'87-'91 have mechanical speedometers driven off the transmission (2wd) or transfer case (4wd). They also have the VSS/ABS on the rear end, and one on the speedo cable.
