Anywhere in particular you recommend getting it from?  I will definatly do it as the jeep gets driven quite frequently,  seems the 89 model speedo gear is tough to find, every part place I go to has it for cj's and 91 and up...

The long and short shaft are interchangeable on the gears, I may be able to set you up if you know what gear you need.

I used the thread in faq and found that I needed the 36 tooth, but from other sites it says the 35 tooth....

Speedometer gears aren't an exact science since tires can vary even when the sidewalls say the same size.  I have adjusted some of the numbers that I have actually tried.  Still, any chart should get you without 5mph of 'prefect'.  Mine is currently for all intensive purposes dead on.
