speedometer gear ratio 140-160 1973

posted by  someone claiming to be David Schmidt on  Wed Nov 29 10:56 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Hi,

I've got a 1973 145 in which I just installed an overdrive. I left the original rear end on the car and now my speedometer/odometer readings are low by about 10% at highway speed. I asked ipd if there's a replacement for the gear at the end of the speedometer cable to change the ratio but they don't seem to make one. Is there any way to fix this problem?
