Idiot light conversion fail
So I was working on my idiot light conversion today and started backing up the mileage like a dummy and I accidentally broke the white screw shaped spindle that comes off of the bottom of the silver cylindrical electrical motor seen here. If anyone has a broke AF set of Cherokee gauges or the whole instrument cluster with an intact speedo I will happily pay for them I just need that little part

If you went as far as to remove the speedo then why not just install the original into the new cluster. Or use the part from the old speedo?

I'm not as familiar with the first gen clusters. Are the speedometers different on the ones with gauges compared to ones with lights?

I have my old idiot light gauges - the speedo worked fine in it when I swapped it. I can send it to you if you want - I don't know if it has that part though.
