Yea, I understand what your talking about, and manually turning the 
front wheel is acually what I did because I already had it jacked up 
trying to figure out what caused my speedo failure to begin with. I 
just thought jacking up the front would be more work than necessary, 
especialy if someone doesn't have a jack or is unfamiliar with the 
proper way to do it. What turned out to be the problem with my
speedo 
is the short drive cable that goes through the wheel to the plastic 
center cap has come out of the angle drive. Does anyone know if it
is 
possible to reinsert it without buying a new angle drive? Thanks.
