Brian,
A tripometer 'extension' slips over the end of the smaller actuating shaft
(end is reduced to fit inside the extension) and a cotter pin slips through
both
items to hold in place. I've also seen a tiny threaded 'set screw' rather
than the split pin technique.
You may have to solder/weld an extension of sorts if your actuating shaft if
it's broken short.
Regards,

Sometime in its past life, the knob that should be found below the
speedometer to reset the trip meter to zero has been snapped off, level with
the
speedo's case. I can see something in there - the stump of the reset knob, I
guess.
How is the knob connected into the trip-meter mechanism? Does it push-on,
screw on, or other?
Cheers,
Brian
