A question of cables?
My tachometer cable (the guts) is missing. I called John Deere and the have a listing for it at $90. They asked me the transmission speed. Is there really a difference between the 4 speed and the 5 speed? I have seen these online for a mere $33. Hate to buy from John Deere if I can get it cheeper eslewhere. But also hate the idea of buying the cheap one and find out there is a difference and get the wrong one.

Hi,
The only thing I can think of is the tach itself would be different as the dial contains ground speed scales for each gear, and that would be linked to which gearbox you had.
I can't imagine that the connection on the tachs would be different, but that is possible. I would think they'd specify the same for both tachs, but perhaps they didn't and there is a difference.
Lavoy would know as he's seen the most machines of anyone here and if this were something that bites you, he'd have been bitten already!
later!
