I had a inoperative odometer (died after working fine for 7 years and about=
90k miles). It was easy to extract from the dash (just under the clip=

a differential-like gear was mounted, had slipped from it's mount in the spe=
edometer housing. I simply replaced it, put a dollop of silica caulk o=
n the head of the spindle (to keep it from slipping back through) and reasse=
mbled the dash. Has worked fine since. If you need any other det=
ails of my experience, pmailme and I'll share what I know.
I am not sure about the speedometer, but it may be related to wheel diamete=
r. What do you presently have mounted?
