Converting my 244 from 1976 to LH2.4 so axle will be modern with sensor (because of LH). Gearbox will be a bit problematic to make it cable driven so.....!!?? Hope to hear, |

I used a cable-x unit to take an electric speed signal from the rear axle and drive a cable speedo.
Basically, it's an electric motor with finely adjustable calibration. Works fine, but not cheap. http://www.abbott-tach.com/cablex.htm John |

Three of these gauge clusters have just sold on ebay.com.au. Might be worth keeping on eye on there. Search for Volvo gauges cluster.

Price up the gauges individually and it will soon seem a bargain!
