Barney,
I have asked this question a couple of times with no result. I suggest you
check at gatherings and events for someone with a box of old speedo parts.
That is how I managed to get the new gears for my odometer, I believe it
cost me allof $1.00 for the innards of a speedo.....Good luck
Safety Fast!
