The speedometer in it now says 50,000 miles and the replacment says 70,000 miles. Is there anything I can do about this? Will it affect the price if I want to sell it? Thanks Judy Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator May 11, 2015, 7:01 PM Post #2 of 3 (3071 views) Re: replacing speedometer what about mileage Sign In There is a way to clock it but you won't get any instructions here. You could always swap the old speedo into the new cluster. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Those years odometer only went to 100,000 and back to zero. So what's the real mileage anyway? If this was a real gem with 50K original it shouldn't need a new cluster at all in whole. You can fix just a gauge or part to it and leave original unit with odo in it. Truth is it was probably messed with before that screwed it up to begin with, T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
