Thanks.
Thanks.

I’ve got a Shimano 600 6-speed freewheel from the same era. Were the cogs interchangeable with DA 7400? If so I might be able to help

I have a 24 tooth Uniglide freehub cog if that's what you need. Appears new, not a DA piece but will shift just fine.

First: freewheel cogs and cassette cogs (including Dura-Ace) are completely different things. Zero cross-compatibility. Second: Uniglide cassette cogs can be flipped over, thereby doubling their life. Finally, Uniglide cogs, as in the early Dura-Ace were a great improvement over the primitive French and Italian cogs of the 70's and earlier. However, Hyperglide was another quantum level of improvement over Uniglide in terms of shift speed and reduced clatter.
As suggested earlier here, take a Hyperglide cassette which can be taken apart (small hex bolts, or rivets that can be ground down), and modify the individual Hyperglide cogs to fit on the Uniglide splines. A few seconds of grinding per cog to remove the offending single wide spline. Hyperglide cogs, when mated with a recent 7/8 speed chain, is worlds better than any slow and clunky Uniglide setup.
