"Wrong"
It turns out that the passenger/right side bolt on the Column support bracket was too long to install the gauge. I reused the exact same bolts too! (at least I thought I did) I dug around and found another shorter bolt and it clears the bottom of the speedometer case but not by much.
Has anyone else ever ran into this issue or is something off center for me? The steering column and 3 on the tree line up dead center in the dash cut out but the speedometer seems to be closer to the column than the cluster gauge.
I think it's time for an adult beverage after lying on my back a good part of the day.
Thanks Jeff | | |
