You will have to pull the gear out of the transmission or transfer case and see how many teeth are on it. Then put a gear with less teeth on it. You just pull the cable out of the tranny or transfer case, the gear is on the end.

To make big changes, a ratio adapter box will be required.
I need to get one after swapping from 3.55 to 4.56. Speedometer needs to be slowed down 17% and that's too much for a simple gear change.

Oh, it's possible, but in my experience, I was a lot more comfortable after switching to a swimsuit with a more generous cut. No matter how I'd adjust my Speedo, it was always too tight in front and kept climbing in back. 
Welcome to the forum, by the way.
