I'm pretty sure the different housing types can be swapped between transmissions. Cable is different though. I found a an a500 in a late 80's Dakota with cruise control. The speedometer gear housing in it used the old style gear and has a VSS built into it. I've used that same housing on three different transmissions since then with the latest being an a518 from 1994.

I thought that sometime in the late 70's they went to a totally different plastic housing and gear? I know I had a '79 727 that had a completely different setup and cable end. The earlier style gear and housings fit fine though in it's place.
Like this style:
That is a 1965 and older gear. 1966-1993 is the same gear and housing.

The later pinion resembles the '62-'65 (bottom pic) but is different.

The later pinion resembles the '62-'65 (bottom pic) but is different. My 90's A518, A500 and Getrac 360 as well as my 1987 833OD all take the long shaft. Lower one shown in your pic.
