Speedometer

I finally put my truck on the road last week and took it for a nice cruise today when I checked the speedometer at the end of my trip the miles counter was counting way to many miles. There is no way I traveled 200 miles today could I have the wrong gear in the speedometer or is something busted?

Did the speed on the speedometer register right or pretty close? If it did then the problem is in the speedometer. The changed for different gear rations are accomplished at the input gear for the speedometer cable in the transfer case. You do not change gears in the speedometer itself.

The speed seemed to be pretty close I was going 55-59 at about 2400 rpm

Then your speedometer is probably messed up. How many miles did you actually drive?
