  1. I build a few through the years

    I am building one right now from leftover parts

    the previous owner toke it apart and the shed that hold all the sheet metal burned down to the ground

    so I bought the leftover chassis and cab an started on it with what I got

    Toke me around  6 months to make it driveable

    this winter I am going to finish it

    sealed the skin with owatrol and thats how it's going to stay

    alway's a lot of fun with those truck and there easy to tinker on

     

    good luck with your build

  2. yours has a electric/magnetic gear that also acts with your ecu

    you need an older conventional cable driven set up

    try to get as near as the original gear ratio needed for your dash speedo

    no math when driving

    try this

    you will have to calculated your gear with the wheel/tire size and gear ratio in your  axle etc.

    you can do this: https://www.tyresizecalculator.com/tyre-wheel-calculators/speedo-error-calculator

    or the right way https://www.tciauto.com/speedometer-gear-calculator

    the also sell the kit  https://www.tciauto.com/search/700r4+speedometer+gears
