I'm in the middle of reseting the mileage on an early 240 speedometer, and I need some help... 200 1980

Well, I got a replacement speedometer for my '80 wagon with 430K miles... Problem was, the replacement speedo had about 195K miles showing.

This replacement speedo is one of the older ones that goes up to 130 mph. It's a wagon speedo (r 0,980).

Well, I've gotten this far:



As you can see, I've gotten the pin that holds all those gears in place above the mileage digits loose. I've rolled the counters to show close enough to the correct mileage, but now I'm having difficulty getting the gears to go back in place.

Does someone have any tips on how I should go about fixing this?

Thanks as always.
