Guys,
Has anyone out there put a cruise control on their 57. I need one to help keep my leg from cramping so much on trips. If you've installed one or know of someone that did, I need to know which control you or they used. I've got an email sent to Dakota seeking advice but I'd be more inclined to consider a control someone has installed and had good luck with. Thanks, Jim
Jim I installed a unit from a 74 Mercury into a 62 Bird. The speed sensor was a unit that screwed into the speed-o-meter cable, there was room under the dash for it, used the wheel for controls, the under hood unit is fairly large and bulky and is a vacumn unit but it worked well. Easy wire up but not easy to hide most of the stuff. Might take a look at the 93 F-150 units as they are cable pull and could be remotely mounted. The speed sensor for it is transmission mounted and has a speedometer cable mount on it. Sorry, no pics, bird is in P-cola, long gone...
