No Speedo?

I can't get my speedometer to work. I have checked the gauge panel, it properly connected. I checked the connection at the tranny... Good. Even checked it, noted where the groove was to insert the cable, drove it, and noted that rotation of the insert in the tranny had occurred. Could it be the guage, or the cable maybe broke somewhere? Thanks.

Definately look at the gear thing in the Tcase. It is one screw and it pops out. Mine was eaten. Add new one and speedo worky. It is easier than tearing everything else apart unfortunately

I had already taken the dash out and gutted the interior to restore it since I just got the truck and it wasn't in the best shape. I did stuff the dash with red leds instead of the factory green. Also did the climate control lights as well. I will get pics up later when the sun goes down.
