Yup, Toyota here wants $100 for a new one. Pep Boys was around 20 or so I think.

No thats the name. Some of the other places should have one they will be a generic type that will work just may have to utilize some adapter pieces that come with it. Try dirtoyboy here pm him he may have what ya need or RanchoToyotaTruck. If you want to stay stock for a sane price. Both members here with good reps.

Yep thats it. You could shorten the tube in a pinch and try to stick the end on the cable again.

I'm not sure about 2wd, but I know that when I've looked speedo cables for my truck, that I could get a cable at the parts companies (NAPA, Pep Boys, ect.) for a four cylinder, but I was out of luck with the V-6.

Dealer is the only place that I've found V-6 speedo cables, and they are very proud of them, as is to be expected.
