make a note of where the cable ties are placed on the spare wheel rods and cut clips, I used tape to mark positions

undo p clip nut 10mm socket, probably need mole grips to hold bracket or you will rip it off

in cab, remove binicle cover and release speedo clip, pull cable through a few feet so it can't fall back inside dash by it's weight (this is a late push on type)

underneath, route cable back as noted, add some lube to cable and push through hub

P1080309 by Paul_Barr, on Flickr
make sure protective sheath is in position slid down to hub

To get the cable through the grease cap hole you will need to jack and rotate wheel, I use a small screwdriver you can get one hand behind to push cable while using the screwdriver to encourage it through, not too hard.
Made a temporary clip from 0.6mm welding wire until I can order one.
