Hey Guys,
I've got my truck back on the road and the speedo was off by about 5, when I'm reading 35, I'm actually doing 40-41. When I'm at highway speed, I'm off by about 10, so at 65, I'm running 75. Now that I've got the lift kit on and I'm running 35's, my speedo is off by about 15 at highway speeds. I'm reading 65 and really doing 78-79 according to my GPS. According to this link:

Which speedo gear do I need? The gear that I have currently has 19 teeth (I counted it out 3 times). So do I go up or down with the number of teeth and how many? My guess would be a 2 tooth jump to either 21 or 17...
I have 3.55s and a ZF-5, so I'm assuming that the 4 speed manual selection (bottom half of that section) should work?
I'm getting ready for a big road trip towing our camper on Friday about 2000 miles, so once I get another minor electrical gremlin taken care of, I'll post a bunch of pics of my conversion to include **** pics of that Moose Mover 7.0 I got from Mel...
Thanks!
