AdamMJ Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi folks, Great forum - can’t believe it’s taken me so long to find it! I’ve owned an ‘81 sc backdate for over 10 years :0 Can anyone tell me the inside diameter of an SC gear knob (915 gearbox) or the outer diameter of the top of the gear stick? Also, does anyone have a speedo for sale - my speedo works fine but doesn’t record miles? Alternatively, is there someone who repairs them? Many thanks Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigt Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 15mm OD for you gear lever. The gears for the odometer may be stripped or just worn. I replaced mine on my last SC, it was a bit fiddly but do-able. I'll try to remember where I bought the parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamMJ Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share Posted February 13, 2021 Ah, that’s great - was it quite straight forward to see which cog was worn / broken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's the one that looks the same as your new one but has teeth missing😁 Sorry, couldn't resist. It will be obvious. There's you tube videos walking you through it. I managed it and I've got fingers like a cows tits!! Just take your time and don't damage the needle. Very rewarding and you get to retain the original speedo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Comerford Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 If you’re not sure about repairing yourself Reap know what they are doing http://www.reapautomotivedesign.com/index.php Not everyone has had a good experience with them so it’s worth reading some of the threads on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeShelter Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I understand Julian Reap's backlog is about 12 months now, so it might be a long wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
