    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    Finding and then lining up the 32-35 mark and now I’ve got the gear working again. Thanks! Unfortunately I still have that stupid bouncing speedo needle.. I pulled out the cable, lubed it lightly and put it back in, less of a bounce, but there is still a noticeable bounce. I guess my next...

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    I won't be home until this weekend, but I'll definitely look for that. From what I saw on the mirror, I just have a lot of dirt up there, but it may very well be under the dirt and maybe that will fix it?! I'll let you know when I can get in there to attempt that.

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    This definitely sets the gear offset. If it turns out the stamped marking is in the wrong place, that could certainly explain it not working. Hopefully if you set it back to the originaly setting it will work for you. If it does, then I guess I'm going to have to try the same thing. I wish I...

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    Found them at a website called 'national drive train', and I ordered two (with shipping) for under $30. I'll let people know if they fit or not.

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    I just found this: NV15054 It looks like it may be the same part with a new integrated rubber washer. (Of course the site I found it on went down as soon as I found it!)

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    ya, it doesn't look so bad.. just trying to get everything I'm going to need before I start the job. I've got some o-rings so I guess I'll try that. I figured there was some standard washer for those drain/fill plug bolts... but so far I've not found anything except an ebay listing to buy 8...

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    Ok, since I'm going to have to get into the transfer case and replace the driver gear (I think). I need to drain the fluids (which I need to do anyway). I've got a slight weap out of the drain plug already, so I know I need a new washer on the plug. But I've not been able to find either...

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    That is exactly what I'm afraid of. Using the mirror I can see a green worm gear with what looks like clear teeth. But that doesn't mean it's working right.. ;)

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    Unfortunately it still isn’t working for me. Everything is now repaired but it doesn’t appear the it’s spinning the cable. does anyone know what might be wrong or need adjustment? I’ve got it lined up, and no spinning. I can take it out of the transfer case and spin it.

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    Well, I finally figured it out. The markings were under some sort of undercoat that had been sprayed all over the transfer case. On my particular transfer case, there were two markings embossed onto the casting, with an arrow to a circle. The arrow pointed the "26-31" mark to the circle...

    NP218 - Speedometer Gear Installation Help

    The pin from the 90 degree adapter broke off in my speedometer gear. To diagnose everything I removed the Speedometer Adapter (TM 9-2320-280-24P-2 Figure 488 Part 19) and the gear (part 17). Verified the pin was broken off inside of the gear (17) and no way for me to get it out. So I'll have...
