I got my spiffy new Wild Horses output shaft for my Dana 20 today! The speedo "plug" on it has a cable set up with a gear that has a long shaft on it with a smaller gear. The stock YJ one has a short shaft with a larger gear. My question is, do they make the long shaft speedo with the smaller gear with a more common tooth count? :confused:
It would be ultra-freaking simple if that were the case... :nod:

Well, Advanced Adapters is truly a wealth of information. I have one coming from the dealership. I found out that Tera-Flush sells their own. They wanted $42 for them (at a local 4X shop) as opposed to the $20 from the dealership. :fitz:
My speedo will be close. According to the speedo gear calculators on line, I need a 41 tooth gear. The best that I can find that will work in my application is a 38 tooth gear. Close enough for government work... :thumbsup:

That's pretty far off when it comes to speedo gears. There are long and short speedo gears, both should be available with 41t. My go-to folks for speedo gears is www.tacomaspeedometer.com , they're cheap and ship quick.

Update:
I found out that the local jeep stealership had a 43 tooth gear available. I recalculated it several times on several sites and found that I needed a 43 tooth gear. I have it coming from Detroit... Don't ask me why I was thinking 41. :confused: I think the 41 is what I need with 35 inch tires and 5.89's...
5.89 x 37 inch tires
Thanks for the link. I'll hang on to it.
