I will try to see if rebuild kits are available on the cylinders and may have to reuse my drums, which are sort of at the max diameter limit.</div><div><br></div><div>Also, what's the scoop on the Gt6's brakes? Are stock ones good? My car has a booster, is it really necessary because the Spitfire never had one and it seems to stop well.</div><div><br></div><div>Are those upgraded discs, like EBC and others really any better? Or are they just cool looking, which will it matter to me because I am using the stock wheels, so you can barely see the discs anyway.<br><br>Take care,<div><br></div><div>Joao</div></div><div><br>On Mar 6, 2015, at 9:32 PM, Dave Connitt <<a href="mailto:dconnitt@fuse.net">dconnitt@fuse.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>

<div><font face="Arial">So I started to replace my broken TR4A IRS speedometer
cable and it seems the break was just inside the drive on the transmission.
There aren't any remains of the speedometer cable sticking out of the drive so I
need to pick the cable remains out of the drive somehow. Is it possible to
remove the drive gear from the transmission? I was hoping I could remove the
drive and at least not have to fish out the broken cable stub laying on the cold
garage floor.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">If I can't easily remove the drive, has anybody "been
there, done that"?</font></div>
