speedometer / odometer fix for taller tire?

From what I've been researching, a 4.11 from a 90-94 Legacy will probably bolt right up, but a 4.44 will require the radius to be trimmed down a bit to fit.

 

I'd love to rock a 4.44, and if I can find the gears I'll hafta look into having a machine shop turn it for me, but in the mean time I'm gonna look for a 4.11.

 

Can you share the links please? My phone won't let me use the search option.

 

Were getting a bit off topic, but oh well.

I'm not sure if we're talking about mechanical or electronic systems... but for the mechanical systems, they make little boxes that have a small set of gears in them that change the output speed. You just hook them up inline with your current speedometer cable.

 

Here's one example:

To find them, try doing search for "speedometer ratio adapter". You should get quite a few results, including the electronic type. icon14.gif

 

Nice find! The custom gear inside the transmission is what i was thinking of and these guys can make them. thanks for the effort.
