Tranny Speedo Gear HELP!

Hey Guys,
i've been trying to get someone to calibrate my speedo for a while with out a lot of luck. I've realized that it is super simple to do now, my problem is i can't find a parts place with the gear and the dealer only has part numbers that don't say how many teeth the gear has. Does anyone happen to have the ford part number for a C6 16 tooth speedo gear????

Thanks!

A speedometer shop will have the gears and will have equipment to calibrate and repair if required. Check your yellow pages.

Tranny Speedo Gear HELP!

i've already checked the phone book and they all went out of business in my area apparently. I have it calculated to get the speed almost exact, with in a half or one mile per hour.

The problem is that none of the parts stores in the area can get me the gear. I've tried some of the best in the area. The dealer has the gears, but they olny have the part numbers and they do not tell how many teeth they are. They also refuse to get any of them in with out knowing the exact one since they then have to put it on the shelf if it's not it.

If anyone would happen to have the part number or a source i can mail order the gear, it would be great. thanks!

Can you desribe exactly what your gear looks like. I have a 30 year old dealers parts book that shows all of the speedo gears and ford part numbers. An old part number might help you the dealer should be able to use them.

They go by colour to rear gear ratio!

What gear ratio did you have and now have ?

Then go to this page and scroll about 1/2 way down the page.

Steward-Werner has an electronic sending unit and electronic speedometer if you want something really cool, you can calibrate yourself.

The 16 tooth driven gear for the C6 is identification #C9AP 17271-B and the part number is DOAZ 17271-B. Hope that helps you.

What if your truck is a 4-wheel drive and the speedo gear is in the transfer case? Mil1ion provided great links. Anyone have the same info for lets say a NP205?

So a divorced NP 205 behind a NP 435 would use the same gear as a C-6.
Thanx for the info.

The speedo gear goes in the NP 205 transfer case. Is this the same as listed above?
