The third reply will again be a different answer, I thought it was from
'95 to '96, along with OBD-I to OBD-II - though I must say that Hop's
mention of '97 being cable driven and '98 being electronic does sound VERY
familiar. Perhaps Bob Tom could confirm if his '97 is RWSS or cable
driven from the output shaft.
Though I think there are two questions you could be asking here, and I
think I'm reading the wrong one....
If I'm not mistaken, Dodge used a mechanical cable driven speedo for a
while, probably halfway through the gen IIs (explaining the mentioned
'93-'94 split, I think it was?) but the sensor/sender stayed in the tail
shaft until '98 when rear ABS came around and speed sensing was done via a
tone ring and hall effect RWSS in the rear diff.
anyone else have any confirmations of anything?
FWIW my '98 is an electronic RWSS.
