So I’ve been spending time sorting out all kinds of little things with this communist experience. One of the things that I attended to was getting the speedometer to work and why I broke two cables. Putting my mind to it with the engine in the back the transfer case runs opposite of the direction in a F15a the middle shaft is rotating in the opposite direction. So as the transfer case I have was rebuilt with parts from a 15 cwt the speedometer gear was for the other direction. LWDPARTS has the correct Speedo gear as per the Lynx parts book so I’ll get it sorted out. Of note is that with the driveshafts turning the opposite direction the axles are inverted. Something I never would have thought of and for the guy that found the stripped hull in Italy he needs to be very careful in going about modifying a set of axles from an F15A.
