I had pretty good luck using the John Wolf & Company to rebuild my TR4A =
speedo last year. They are located in Willioghby, Ohio. Before the =
rebuild, the speedo cable was breaking about every 200 miles it seemed =
like. The company was recommended to me by another list member here in =
Ohio. The rebuild took about 3 weeks and my cable problems are gone plus =
the needle is pretty steady. I think they charged me $175.00.

Glad your result was good. I sent a speedometer to Nisonger for =
recalibration after a diff change as they said:
There will be an additional minimum $25 charge over and above our =
standard $175 (plus shipping) rebuilding charge, because of the =
additional parts and labor required to change out the internal gearing =
of the Speedometer so that both the speed and distanced traveled both =
read correctly...
What I got back was a corrected odo but the speedometer was only =
accurate at 60 mph. Off about 15% in city traffic and high speed.
At first Nisonger claimed it was my fault as I must have sent them the =
wrong data (cables turns in 1/100 mile) - but then I pointed out that =
the odo was correct.
Then they claimed that the speed could not be corrected for the diff =
change - and I explained there were at least three ways this can be =
adjusted (magnet strength, spring strength and gap between the magnet =
and drag cup).
Finally they agreed to try to make it better if I would ship it back =
(at my expense, of course). I think their plan was to try a different =
spring.
I never got to find out if they could, in fact, do this, as UPS lost =
my package somewhere in the Bronx on December 19.
Fortunately I was able to locate an NOS unit with the correct TPM for =
the diff I have so all is well.
