Is it true that in order to remove the dash cluster the whole steering column has to be dropped? If so what kind of design is that? I ask because check this out guys. My speedometer has been slowly going out and finally would never rest on zero. So I swapped in a genuine Mopar speedo cable and the problem still continued. I then had the idea of possibly spinning the speedo with the old cable by using an electric drill. Well the problem still existed. Then upon trying to return the new speedo cable onto the speedometer I simply couldn't get it back on. I looked inside the cable and for some reason a little brass bearing is on the cable and not allowing it to seat all the way on the speedo. All that work for nothing!!!!
So now I am planning on swapping the speedo from an old Valiant I have on the ranch and hoping this solves the issue. But, according to my official manual I have to drop the column to achieve this and still deal with the issue with my new cable. Any assistance or encouragement would be appreciated.
