It looks like I need to replace the speedometer cable on my BJ8. Can I get to the coupling on the gearbox from under the car, or will I have to remove the tunnel?

Thank in advance!

Yes, it can be done. IIRC, a pair of small channel lock pliers comes in handy. If it's just the inner cable--not the sheath--it can be pulled out and replaced from the back of the speedo. Don't forget the small copper washer/spacer at the adapter end.
 
Small copper washer/spacer at the adapter end?????
Does this washer/spacer go between the adapter and the gearbox or the adapter and the cable?
Again, thanks in advance!
