Hey, all, after 9 months I finally got the energy to remove my TR4A interior for the umpteenth time--to find out why my speedometer won't work. Attached is the photo of what I found. My angle drive seems to have just come apart. Does anyone know if this is typical or unusual? I can try to find a new one, but I could also have this repaired at my favorite shop. Any advice or clue what happened here? Hopefully it doesn't signify something more serious internal to the pinion. Thanks guys.
