My father gave a bit of a pull when pulling the cluster and I think he stretched the cable. I believe w/o cruise is a 1 piece cable and with cruise is a 2 piece. If that's true, I'm guessing he'd only need to replace the top cable. Anyone have a part number or a link possibly?
 
Did you check Rock Auto? I would look but I'm on my phone. Does it have the signal generator on the driver's inner fender? If so then yes, it takes a two piece cable. If it was dealer installed cruise it will be a one piece cable.

My 85 is one speedo cable. Speedo needle was jumping all over so I pulled out the old one that went from the speedo directly to the transmission and measured it and bought a new one. Speedo good now and cruise control works great. Not sure when they changed from 2 to 1 cable, but yours should be one cable.
