Description
When your tachometer starts acting up—jumping around, sticking, or going dead altogether—it’s usually that cable that’s given up the ghost. You know how frustrating it is trying to maintain proper engine speed for your PTO work or hit the right RPM for efficient field operations when you can’t trust what the gauge is telling you. This replacement cable gets your rev counter working like it should, so you can run your David Brown at the speeds that save fuel and get the job done right.
What You’re Getting
- Exact 1620mm length designed specifically for David Brown 995 and 996 models
- Proper 5/8″ and 7/8″ thread fittings that match your tractor’s connections
- Smooth-operating inner cable that won’t bind or catch
- Durable outer housing that handles engine vibration and weather
- Direct replacement that installs just like the original
Built for Real Farm Work
Your David Brown 995 or 996 is probably handling everything from hay work to tillage, loader duties to PTO jobs. These tractors have the power to tackle serious work, but using that power efficiently means knowing your engine speed. Whether you’re trying to hit that sweet spot for your baler, maintain steady ground speed with the planter, or just avoid over-revving during road work, a working tachometer makes all the difference.
Made to Last
A rev counter cable takes a beating from engine vibration, temperature changes, and the constant flexing that comes with tractor operation. This replacement is built with a precision-wound inner cable that transmits rotation smoothly and an outer sheath that stays flexible without kinking or cracking. It’s made to OEM specs, so your gauge reads accurately without that annoying needle bounce.
Installation Notes
Most farmers tackle this job themselves—it’s straightforward work that doesn’t require special tools. Route the cable following the original path, keeping it away from hot exhaust components and sharp edges. The smaller 5/8″ fitting typically goes to the engine side, while the 7/8″ connects to the gauge. Don’t overtighten these brass fittings—snug is plenty. A drop of oil on the cable before installation keeps everything running smooth from day one.
