    Odometer gear question.

    This is a long shot, but does anyone know the height, width, and pin size of the 12 toothed drive gear in the odometers. My cluster stopped counting miles, and this was the culprit, and I refuse to pay 25 dollars for a new one from odometergears.com This would help me find the right one (or similar) at a local hobby shop.

    Thanks
    Devon

    Take yours out and see if you can match it up. Might be $30 worth of trouble for nothing though.

      Mine is busted in half. I'll try that when I get home though.

        Just email Jose Santana at mpower2002@jazzfree.com. He sells them on ebay for $7.00 each. I've bought from him. He's actually in Spain, but the shipping is super fast. He sells under the username sportevolution.

            I just checked ebay. He doesn't seem to have any auctions right now though.

            I know of one or two other guys who've bought gears from him. Maybe they will chime in as well.

                      check the pulse generator on your differential, the connections and whatever.

                            DevonJordan - Do you know if Jose sells a complete set of gears for Motometer, or just individual gears. I haven't pulled my cluster yet, but would want to go ahead and change all four(?) gears while I'm in there.

                              I sent him an email back, he said that he had gears, but wanted to know which I needed. I asked for all four, so we shall see.

                              I feel the same as you, Im in there, why not replace them all?
