As I was led to expect from Herman's excellent instructions, my Smith speedometer reads slower by about 5-7 mph than a gps tells me. Herman's advice in his manual is to get the speedometer recalibrated, but that appears to be a $150 - $200 job, and anyway I don't relish getting behind the dash again. Why not just calculate the number of teeth needed on a replacement driven speedo gear to match up with my gauge, I thought. Those gears seem to cost about 25$ - $30. Without knowing yet whether my W58 Toyota tranny has a 10 or 11 tooth drive gear (apparently 10 is more common?), I have done some preliminary calculations and found that a driven gear with either 25 or 28 teeth should get me close to an accurate mph reading (for a 10 or 11 drive gear). However, the lowest I have found so far is a 30-tooth driven gear.<br><br>Questions: Are there Toyota W58 speedo driven gears with 25 or 28 teeth (for 10 or 11 drive gear teeth)? If so, where do you get them?<br><br>Thanks for any help you can give me.<br><br>Tim Gaines<br>Clinton, SC<br>1974 TR6<br>1980 Spitfire<br><br>---<br>This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software.<br><a href="https://www.avast.com/antivirus" target="_blank">https://www.avast.com/antivirus</a><br><br><br>** <a ymailto="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net" href="mailto:triumphs@autox.team.net">triumphs@autox.team.net</a> **<br><br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/archive" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/archive</a><br>Forums: <a href="http://www.team.net/forums" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/forums</a><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/triumphs/yellowtr3@yahoo.com</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
