Finally autopsied speedo. Right angle grears fine (yay!). Problem is short cable that passes through spindle. Square cimp end is unwound and mangled. In its infinite wisdom DMC wound in opposite direction of predominant wheel rotation. All it takes is disturbance to one strand and cable will destroy itself from wheel movement alone.
Wheel disc is fine BTW.
I've got angle drive off car but can't figure out how to remove short cable from its gear. Does anyone know how to separate the two? If I can remove short cable, will replace with cut down parts house cable. More complicated back up plan otherwise -- will post if that's what it comes to.
