I just went through this on my '71 Roadster. Speedo drive was rubbing on the hub cover.For the third time, measure the thickness of the speedo drive. It should be no more than 0.825 inches not including the top hat spacer. If it measures more, the center part is bulged out. This bulge causes the inboard side of the drive to encroach on the wheel hub cover.
Apply some heat to the drive housing, and squeeze it to size in a vise using a socket of approx 1.25" outside diameter bridging the hole.
