hi paul

things move fast in the carrier network, it looks like the rear armour panel is missing from yours i have a spare one you can have, it's a little bent but very useable and your welcome to it, i'm also getting a new speedo cable made for £30 do you want one . i would assume you have the same dash panel as mine with english instruments with the smiths speedo. give me a call on 07970828122 if you need anything

all the best

eddy

Hi Eddy,

I would be interested in a speedo cable as my Carrier has none at the moment. Do you know if the cable for my Canadian Mk2 will be the same as the one your getting made?
I also need the driven gear and the housing. Anybody got these extra and wants to sell them?

Thanks,
Marc van Aalderen

hi marc
sorry but i don't think the mk2 speedo has the same drive at the speedo end but i'm sure someone on the forum will know for sure, if it is the same then of course it will be no problem to order another for you.
you might try ajmac for the driven gear as i think he's got 2 axles for his loyd restoration and might have the parts you need

all the best

eddy

i have a canadian mk1 with a canadian mk2 speedo and it seems to marry up to the drive ok ? mind the carrier has not moved so who knows......it should work imagine the pain it would cause having to mess around with cables and drives when servicing the axles in the field...

i am confident it should be ok.
