Speedometer
Ok i have a question about speedometers i need mine to be exact because im starting to get worried mine has been inaccurate since i got the truck and i cant get another ticket for speeding. so since i have a cable driven speedo can i take the speedo cable from a 94 4runner and put it in my truck and get a superlifts speedo re-calibrator or do i have to get the cluster also?

i too recommend the gps method. it completely eliminates variables like tire size and gearing, correct speedo model, etc.
you could get a used tomtom unit pretty cheap on fleabay. heck, even borrow one for a day and just figure out what your speedo is off by.
but remember that a speedo that's "off" is not always consistent. it's could be off more the faster you go, so check it at 25mph, then 45 mph, then 65mph (on your speedo), and see what the gps says you're really doing.
once you know the real speeds, you can make new little marks with a couple tiny pieces of masking tape or something.
