NP205 speedo parts

Does the speedo shaft have any other function besides spinning the speedo cable? Oiling, holding parts in place, etc?

I may eliminate mine unless it has to be there.

I don't think it does anything else. I converted mine to electronic VSS and didn't have to do anything extra. Pulled those parts and plugged the hole. VSS used a new hole in a different location, tone ring replaced the big gear on the tail shaft.

buy a plug from ord and cap it off . http://offroaddesign.com/catalog/NP205VSS.htm

but dont scrap the parts . lots of guys need them in parts hunting and the gear has different teeth counts . i have sold a few .

Yep, that's exactly what I used.

Im using mine to send vss signal to the vss box in the factory speedo cluster for tbi.

The one im working on for a buddy uses the early output shaft and will not accept the newer tone ring vss parts according to ORD. I did however find the seals for that threaded adapter so hopefully it wont leak. If it does were putting that plug on.

Thanks. Yeah I’ve got that plug saved on eBay and ready to order, just wanted to be sure it didn’t oil that rear bearing or something important.
