Does anyone know where i can buy the palstic speedo cable drive gear for a trimatic ...the one that is located at the gearbox end of the speedo cable? i need to get different size as my speedo reads about half way between kms and miles.

What color are you after? If you have any idea someone might have one lying around, I have a couple of different colors here, only too happy to send one , Trev .

Lots of people have them, Phil at Gawler Wreckers(SA) told me he has a box full. If you are after a rare one then you can get them new. I got one through AutoPro a few years ago.

I got mine from rare spares Think they have a few different ones

Not bad, but they seem to have left out a few colours.

thanks guys, i don't actually know which colour or how many teeth sprocket i need. the speedo reads half way betwen miles and kms but whatever sprocket is in there is a mystery as its a traumatic 3sp, i have 14 inch rims with 195 tyres and a banjo from an unidentified later holden & i'm not sure what gear ratio it is what i plan on doing is pulling out the sprocket i have, count the teeth and note the colour and use the oldholden page to try and work out which one i need....i am armed with knowlege and am one step closer to ticking one more item off mt list. Will post again once i know exactly what i need.

Marty , what diff ratio are you running ?

I have a few driven gears in the shed for late model sh it - i.e. red motors

I just had the "fully reconditioned" head redone at a proper engine reconditioners - all the valve guides were flogged out , the last bloke just relapped the valves and threw new stem seals in it Cost = $609 Still need to deglaze the thing , buy new rings , etc ,etc ,etc .


................ It nearly ended up red motor powered - if it happens again I have got a nice and grumpy 202 and a 5 speed in the shed somewhere

That would be cool but a shame in that ute, Also know the feeling of "i'll stick with the original style engine" only to be bitterly dissapointed in the way it went

AFM, have a look on the flange between the diff and uni, the ratio is stamped on there, Trev .

Hey Blacky, it feels that by the time i do finally get around to your place i'll have a shopping list as long as my arm...the grumpy 202 sounds intersting I had no idea on the diff gear ratio, will check it out, didn't even realise it was stamped anywhere. Cheers for the pointer Trev. i'll check the speedo drive sprocket details while i'm under there and getting dirty.
