Questions & Answers
It is a single device that includes both the tripometer and the odometer. As a result, yes, both of them will work again once this kit is installed. During installation of the new gears, be sure to use some light grease (unless something else is broken).
In the case where your odometer works, then this will not be helpful. I was able to fix the odometer for my 1996 Mustang using these parts. I didn't have a problem with my speedometer.
I've not used it in a thunderbird, but I used it in a 98 Mustang and it was a great experience.
In fact, the 94 to 2004 years almost all had the same parts, only the designs changed.

For my 1996 Ford Explorer, I ordered this product. This selection was based on DIY videos of Ford Mustangs of the same age range with the The Ford odometers are all quite similar, so I assumed they When I took the instrument cluster apart, I discovered the worm gear was split The whole thing could be easily replaced. In any case. I didn't fit the larger round gear mechanism I received with the kit in the odometer setup on my vehicle. Taking my dash apart was no big deal so I got this kit before I did it. The worm gear fit perfectly, and I was able to repair my odometer. In addition, half of the dash bulbs in my 1997 Explorer are During the time that I am replacing the bulbs, I will order another worm gear to replace the original before it breaks. I will use the larger round gear if it fits in the '97. It is a no-go. Anyway, this isn't much of an issue. In the end, it was worth the effort to take apart the dash on the '96 to get the odometer to work.
It was typical of old Fords from the 90's that the original odometer had become brittle and In fact, when I tried to take it out, it literally crumbled into little pieces in my hands. Since my odometer was malfunctioning when I purchased the car, I am unaware of the number of miles on my 1996 Mustang GT and have no idea of how much gas I have been using as I drive. gas is so expensive that driving a Mustang GT to get gas mileage makes no sense, but these days fuel isn't cheap. )
It was quite easy to install it. It was only my stupidity and clumsiness that caused me any problems. A Cold Steel AK47 knife that slipped on my left thumb while I was prying apart the instrument cluster has left a permanent scar on my left thumb. I won't get into details since that is another These gears are lubricated with oil-based lube ). Ford made the plastic brittle out of that, which made it crumble. that my odometer and trip odometer are working properly, I am able to calculate my fuel economy The best gas mileage I've gotten so far is 26 MPG. In a manual transmission and no air conditioning vehicle on the highway, with a truck with a six-cylinder engine. The gear ratio is 27. I'm so excited!.
96 Ranger has only a small worm gear, so I only needed a small piece of gear to fix it. As a result of age, it was broken into three pieces. I got the instrument cluster out within a short period of time. Taking the time to replace your broken gauge lights now would be the time for that. It is compatible with a variety of Ford models, so do not let the Mustang label fool you. It is still best to make sure of the part number.
On my 1996 Ford Mustang V6, I was experiencing intermittent speedometer issues (wouldn't work most of the time). I also noticed my odometer completely stopped working. This kit was easy to install myself after I purchased it. Both worked perfectly when I took them for a test drive! Make sure you clean all the old dirt out of the frame while the system is apart! The installation was very easy and the kit is a great deal compared to similar.
In the stock, there are black gears. A small box was filled with white bubble wrap and plastic. They came wrapped in bubble wrap. As it should, everything was in place. The only difference is that there was no grease. It's easy to grease stock gears with thick grease, so I used some. I found the installation process to be straightforward. Make sure to take care not to damage your gauges, as they are over 20 years You should take your time when putting back the pins, ensuring that they are not bent. That's all there is to it! The entire project took me ten(10) minutes, and I wasn't even tippy toeing so nothing was broken. Then I'll have them in the future.
I should buy a few more just so I can still have them. I love it. The only thing I know about its durability is that I've had it on for about a month. It's great to have this kind of weather.
In order to use it, it had to be superglued. Although it still works in my car, I have a hard time relying on the quality control at the company. The product I received was faulty when it arrived, so I wrote to let them know. It was their request that I take a photo, which I forgot to do. It didn't occur to me until after fixing the odometer that I had forgotten to take pictures. About 12 bucks was the cost of the product. Is it really worth taking the time to write to them in order to save the money if it's not really Not at all. Nevertheless, it is a matter of principle. Since the product was packaged nicely, I would say that the broken product was either overlooked during the manufacturing process or simply not caught. As far as I know, it has been in my vehicle for several months and is working as expected. 2 out of 5 stars is what I am willing to give to the product. To get the best results, I suggest you make sure it is free of defects before you Opening the package before you take the odometer part out of your car is a good idea. The branch will open immediately, so you'll have time to return to China to get a new batch. The magic superglue seemed to hold up OK, but I was just hoping it would last.
The odometer on my car went out years ago and I took it to a mechanic who said it would cost $150 to repair. I dug a little deeper and I found out that a broken odometer gear is the most common reason. Research led me to find the instructions on how to make the fix myself online. It took me an hour because I wanted to take my time but it probably could have been done in about 20 minutes. I've purchased some auto parts before from Amazon, but I still got surprised when I found the odometer gear I had been searching for at such an incredible price. It turned out that the gear for the odometer was completely brittle and crumbling to pieces as I was trying to remove it. Once I snapped in both pieces and put everything back together, the odometer is now working properly.
A little care must be taken during assembly. An easy way to attach the worm gear to the motor shaft is to press it on. Snaps into the housing is how the cluster gear is attached. After fitting the IP back to the dash, I found that the odometer didn't work after my assembly of the two was correct. As a result, I was disappointed and discouraged, and my assumption was that the gears had not meshes correctly, but I was not in the mood It was not until two months later that the Odometer started My favorite parts are the ones that heal on their own.
