Air shocks were not factory, those were put on by a previous owner.

Like Dennis said there is a retainer clip holding the gear to the lower end of the cable. I don't think the gear is available at an auto parts store.

There are 6 different speedo DRIVEN gears. All are available from Ford.

TEETH: 16 / 17 / 18 / 19 / 20 / 21

Count the number of teeth on your gear, post what it is.

I'll give you the Ford part number and the price.

The plastic driven gears are also color-coded for quick IDing.
