Subject:      noisy speedometer
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=Windows-1252

Got about 8° above zero here in the North land, and got the itch to take the van down the road. Gotta say I love the the torque biasing differential I installed a few years ago. Plowed through 10 inches of snow in my driveway, and then down a very slippery ice covered backstreet. I know full well without the torque biasing differential I would've been stuck in the driveway.

Anyway, wasn't long before the speedometer was squealing like a pig. If I recall correctly from reading a thread from a few years back, it's not so much the cable as the actual speedometer. I think somebody sprayed some lube to quiet things down but can't remember what was used and the procedure. Could anyone enlighten me?

Cheers,

Troy
