speedo/odo correction

[clackattack]

Has anybody in here tried to correct thier speedometer/odometer with any luck? Im mounting 33s tommorow and if ive done my math correctly, ill be doing 70 when my speedo reads 60. From what i understand its an electronic system, so theres no small gears or mechanical adapters, i would instead need to use an electronic ratio adapter.

Im not too sure which ones that are availble work and how easily they are set up. I know superlift has one thats like 250$ and i found a listing for one on a speedometer world website that is 170$. If anyone out there has knowledge of these 2 or knows of another unit that will work, please, lemme know cause i have to fix this issue. Thanks again!

buy a gps if ya dont have one take everything apart and when you hit 60 by gps put your needle back on at 60!! thats what i did and i used a gps free..so just do that and it will be right

Hmm... that is a thought, but i kinda need to get the odometer set also. And if im not mistaken, with an electronic adapter my shift points will be corrected as well, right?

Why don't you go to the dealer and have them do a pinion reset....hook on to the computer and boom it's calibrated?

I just asked them to do it when I was getting something else done that day..took them a few minutes..no big deal.

well, according to MY local stealership, my KK has already had a pinion reset to the largest tire setting in the ECU... which apparently is like a 30.2 according to the mech and im going up to a 33.3

Your speedo runs off of your ABS sensors,you don't want to be messing with that.

But if you want your speedo corrected use this.

It works great in mine since my SFA swap since my speedo was run off a sensor in the rear diff which got replaced with a D60.I do not have ABS or any of those 3 little letter gizmo's though.
