To give you some more slack, you need to unook the speedometer gear that is actually on the transmission. The cable is JUST long enough to fit between the tranny and the cluster when the cluster is bolted in.

Once the cable is disconnected/pulled out from the tranny, you will have plenty of slack to unhook the cable from the back of the cluster.
