Speedometer
1989 jeep cherokee xj 4.0L.
Since I got my jeep I've noticed that my speedometer shakes as it climbs up to about 35 miles an hour.After 35 it's fine. Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks

Cruiser should chime in here in soon about this but from what I understand is the factory cable driven speedometer cable has too sharp of a bend in it that makes it waver. He was a service manager at jeep and is a renix master. I don't think there is a fix

Lube the cable. It was an issue that was solved in later years by going with an electric speedo.
