How to shorten a Tach drive cable?
Some heavy duty truck shops, dealers, fabricate cables--especially if
they mount specialized equipment, beds, & such tings as dat. dlevy wrote: Speedometer shops are generally next door to the toaster store. "Morgans" wrote in message ... "Orval Fairbairn" wrote Cable are part of a speedometer shop's services. What do you think a car owner does when the speedo cable packs it in? Tach cables, speedo cables, etc. are all part of the service. I must not be doing a very good job of explaining what I meant. I'm beginning to think that it was not worth it, but I'll try to get it right, one more time. Someone said a speedometer shop could handle it. On that point, I do not argue, but my point was to say that I had never heard of a shop that specialized in speedo's. (which by definition would include the cable, and the gear that drives off of the transmission in many cars) It has been pointed out that there are specialty shops that call themselves a speedo shop, and I was surprised that anyone could make a business on such a small subgroup of auto repairing. I stand corrected, but I have never heard of such a thing where I have lived. I do also agree that some of the better auto service shops could deal with putting new ends on cables too, by the way. Better? See what I mean, about it not being worth the time to explain myself, though? g -- Jim in NC |
