For the most part, 22RE = 22RE, so a '93 22RE is the same as a '91 22RE.

Easy enough to look at the back of the t-case (passenger side). If you see a cable:



That is what you have, if you see a couple of wires plugged into a speedo sender, then you have electronic.

Probably pull the cable and see if the drive gear is intact and attached. If so, you could try spinning up the cable and see if it spins up at the speedo end, or run it with an electric drill and see if the speedo needle moves. If not, the cable may have snapped and you need to replace it.

Guess it depends on which end you took off and spun. If it was at the t-case end, then that says something in the cable up to the speedo is sticking. Could be the cable has snapped and the broken end is stuck in the housing and not letting it spin. Or it could be the speedo itself seized, you could check that by disconnecting the cable on the back of the speedo and see if it'll spin with both ends loose. If not, cable is toast, if so, speedo is toast.
