Hello All, I am new to Steel Soldiers. I joined the Army just as they were phasing the M1008/9s out and have always wanted one. I bought a 1984 M1009 from a steel soldiers member that needed tranny work (3rd was out) for a steal and she is a work in progress. As I was limping her to the nearby tranny shop, the speedometer went out. I figured when they rebuilt her that it would fix it. It did not but the tranny shifts smooth like new. I pulled the dash off yesterday and cleaned the panel (lots of dirt and dust) and got everything working right except the speedometer. The cable is new (the old one is still lying there and I am about to remove it). It is firm to the speedometer and the tranny but the squire box component the it screws into on the tranny is really wobbly (which doesn't look right to me but I have never messed with one of these before). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all!
