I put the rear end on jack stands and rotated the rear wheels by hand with the car in gear. With the cable disconnected from the gauge, I expected to see the square cable spinning (albeit slowly) with the housing. Nothing. So I?m thinking the transmission end (cable/gear/ring) isn?t seated properly or the cable is broken. Any problems with this logic? Thanks again, - G.

URL: From winbladgary at gmail.com Fri May 31 09:29:57 2024 From: winbladgary at gmail.com (Gary Winblad) Date: Fri, 31 May 2024 08:29:57 -0700 Subject: [Tigers] Tigers Digest, Vol 17, Issue 52 In-Reply-To: References: <1874236822.90164.1717128311703@mail.yahoo.com> Message-ID: I've never seen a top (soft or hard) that really fits "right". I think replacement rubber seals are not as good as the originals and is most of the problem. If it clips on easily and stops most of the rain its probably right.
