Where to find speedometer gears?

[HemiDave]

I have an 85 SR5 4x4 X-tra cab with a stripped transmission speedo gear. Where to get a replacement? Are they all the same or unique to the 85s?

Thanks!

I am pretty sure the dealer will still have that part.

Dealer was of little help....said there are a few possibilities to choose from and he doesn't want to order the wrong one. DA!!

Anything aftermarket? Or a good dealer that ships?

That'll be C-Dan.


Did you give the dealer your vin#?


I'd call them back, give them the vin, and deal w/ them. I build a rapport with my local guys....I never (rarely) buy anything from them, but I have a rapport w/ them.


Let them deal with logistics, and you just go pick it up locally, when it's ready.

What Hilux said ... Cruiserdan here at MUD. He was out hunting so just give his boyz a call. Or, try your dealer again, or try another dealer if that is an option.

That said, it appears the part is available from the dealer for about $25 list. Dan will be 25% off that. You will probably need to give them your VIN as your dealer was correct. There are several choices depending on tire, engine, 2wd or 4wd. When I punch in my VIN it does narrow down to only one choice.

Personally, I think your dealer was being a dick. You have an RN65 model, and with that information there is only one choice ... 33482-39135. The gear will have 18 teeth.

Thanks guys!

I will try a dealer in Austin, since I will be living there now. Might get better service.....almost have to at this point.

Now I just gotta get my Cruisers over here.....
