I second Chris Cushman. Good to deal with. He also makes the correct length cables,which many are not.

We did an article on Cushman when we had him do some speedos for the Model A Times. His work is great have over 10,000 miles on one of his units.

I used Harry Warburton. He did a super job and quick turnaround.

At the time, I checked with Cushman and you would send them yours and they would send you an 'off the shelf' rebuilt one. Harry rebuilt my speedometer. He will set the odometer to whatever mileage you want and he includes a list of what he repaired/replaced.
