I replaced the speedo cable, and had time to look at some other stuff. The replacement didn't work out as easily as I planned - mostly because the old cable was misrouted by the DPO. So, I did remove most of the interior.
While I was under the car, I removed and cleaned the angle drive. This one appeared to be original, so I'm planning on getting another to have on hand. The angle drive screws into an aluminum part (cylinder shaped, that my catalog calls a "boot") that goes into the transmission housing to hold the speedo drive shaft in place. I have a small leak coming from there (probably the o-ring or seal ring inside). The boot should be held in place by a setscrew and threaded insert. My concern is that the setscrew and insert are very tight - but this aluminum piece has a small wiggle to it. Do I have a problem? Also, on the accelerator linkage, at the two bell cranks, I appear to be missing bushings. Does anyone know if these are available? Stoddard's printed catalog carries them as NLA. -Rusty |
