I am working to put together an E-Body rallye dash odometer. How does the gear attach to the reset knob shaft? This was in pieces when I got it, so this may be wrong? I am going to try to attach a picture of the shaft and the gears.
Thanks

There are more parts, there's a spring that pushes the shaft/gear out so to set you push the knob in... I can't see the gear in the picture so maybe shoot at a different angle...

Here this link may help... It also shows the two holes where the two pins on your other part lock in...

1 Wild RT,
Thanks, I think I see how this works. The brass colored part on the shaft is what I was referring to as a gear, but now I see this does not turn. I have attached a picture of the "gear" and the shaft. I suppose any small spring will work for this. It looks like there is a groove for a C-clip in the shaft, I would guess this is to keep the shaft from coming out of the housing?
Thanks again.
