Default Stack speed pulse generator.

Looking for inspration on where/how to fit my speed pulse generator/sensor, any one fitted one.

This is being fitted in my mk2 cortina, T5 box 2wd front hubs.

I did read about somone doing a adaptor that fitts into the t5 speedo drive hole but havent found anything my self.

You can buy adaptors for speedo cables, Demon tweeks etc sell them.

Or you could fit hook up a toothed trigger off a front wheel or something and a hall sensor.

i mounted mine on the alloy bracket for the front brake calliper so it read off the back of the 4 hub studs

you could probably knock something up if you on std calliers and clamp it behind the calliper bolts

Was thinking about the abs pick up on my 2wd hubs but not sure how many pick ups there are on per rotation, it might have to strip it down and have a look.

You'll need to check whether the Stack can handle a VR signal as opposed to a digital signal.

Not all ABS triggers will be suitable.

if it's anything like my stack speedo, you only have to drive 2 miles to calibrate and it works out how many pulses relate to speeds. you do need to drive around 40mph though to keep it accurate though, but is within 0.5mph at 70mph, so pretty good indeed.
