Title: Can I change speedo drive gear?
Post by: black ct on September 07, 2005, 06:30:52 AM
I've got an 87 XR7 with 3.73s and an aod.  I'm using a 21 tooth speedo driven gear and have been told that I must have the 8 tooth drive gear.  I will be removing the tranny tailstock to replace the output shaft bushing and was wondering if it was possible to change to the 7 tooth drive gear while I have it apart.  If so what is involved?

AAAAhhhhh,  I see.

Now that I've got it apart, I understand that the gear is a permanent fixture.  I'll be getting a 23 tooth soon i guess.
