722.3 Transmission swap - w123love - 01-21-2012
Does anyone know if the 1983 SD with a 722.3 has a electronic speedo?
I’m looking at my trans that I pulled out from my 1982 w123, and it looks like the speedo cable won’t fit properly on my donor transmission.
Any ideas?

Yes. SD's have electronic speedometers. Thats why your speedometer cable will not "fit" in the donor trans. Might be able to swap tail shafts or something to make it work but I'm not sure. I just know that year SD your donor trans came from has electric and your 300D needs a mechanical setup.

Yea thanks Cap. I realized that the I could have done that when I had them both out next to each other.
