What color speedometer gear do I need for the '71? 3.23's with a 255/70/15 tire (29.1" dia.) Going to Monster Mopar this weekend, hope to pick up one.

29 tooth. Black.

That's according to a couple different charts. YMMV.

28 is white and 30 is yellow, just in case you need to go up or down.

And count the teeth to be sure of what you're getting. One of the guys @ Brewers told me you can't always rely on the color. Later versions or something... :popcorn:

I can never remember the colors so I look at the number molded in the gear. But.... the color is a great way to pick one out in a box of them!
