I know this really isn't electric but.. decided to replace my old odometer on my 53 1/2. Got new one from JIm Carter. Taken old one out and not sure how to set the new one at the previouis milage. Did not look closely enough at the old to see how the five tabs separating the wheels line up. Any one familiar with this ? Thanks, Scott

Will call. What are your thoughts...new rebuilt engine, cash deal. Was going to set odometer at 00000 instead of 43320 on title - though old odometer has not worked since I bought truck 7 years ago. Would this be a problem if I ever sell?

Is the truck titled by engine number?

Most titles (that I've seen/dealt with) have a mileage disclaimer.

it's usually:

Actual, exceeds odometer capability (rolled over) or not actual (or words to that effect).



Another quality post.

Truck title in original milage. Odometer has not worked. Put new rebuilt 235 in it so wanted to set odometer to 0000.

When placing the new number spool in the housing how do you lineed up the numberstairs that you want? Once it is in place is it possible to force turn the wheel to get the correct numbers?
Thanks, Scott
