Hi Volks,


A local 1988 westy owner asked me for some help with her speedometer...
I pulled it out and it was the typical issue where the metal gear had
come off the shaft. Which is a repair I have done a couple of times and
I was able to get that sorted out easily enough....


Unfortunately, in the process of reassembly I managed to break the
yellow plastic gear on the other end of the shaft. I tried repairing it
with superglue but it won't stay together.


Has anyone got a late-model parts speedo available? All I really need is
the shaft with the yellow plastic gear on the end, but I need it ASAP to
  help get this van mobile ASAP.


Thanks!


Happy Trails,
