Little Red Odometer Gear
Okay Guys, I'm tired of driving 180 mile round trips to Pull-A-Part and yanking a speedometer only to discover after installing it that the damned odometer is no good. After dissecting the two I have, I've discovered that the little red gear in both of them is broken. Anyone know of a site or supplier that I just order the gear from? I'm tired of the trial and error method and would just like to fix the frigging thing properly once and for all.
On mine the speedometer works, but the intense heat has done a number on the odometer. I have a unit I purchased from our parts man here but have yet to remove the instrument cluster to do it. A combination of I have too many projects, it is no fun working in 100+ degree temperatures in the drive way and I am half afraid of breaking every one of the plastic snap to lock fasteners on it.
The plastic snap to lock tabs are the hardest part, Unc. I broke one, but was able to super glue it back. The key is to just take your time and use a gentle, steady pressure while pushing them in and separating the case. And Mike, I found a place on ebay, but these things are expensive! I'm afraid you'll have to order your own. I'll send you a link for them if you want me to.
