The Speedometer angle drive is missing something on the end/side of it, but still turns just fine, but was wondering if the missing part, can even be gotten, and fixed?

Is the part that screws the cable on, worth saving?

I think everyone has misunderstood the photo/question. If you turn either end of the angle drive and the other end turns freely and easily, it's good. What I see is the remnants of a broken speedometer cable still attached to the angle drive. Loosen the big silver nut and remove what's left of the cable.
Edit: jeez. Duh, now I see it... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |
