Have driven a lot of highway and so far so awesome. The mountain I go to (Blue) is a lot of back roads with slush/ice/snow and they grabbed well. A little road noise but well worth the price and performance. I really hope they do last awhile, if not, I will upgrade to the green diamond OTR's. Definitely will stick with re-treads from now on though, especially from Treadwright.

The A340H (4wd pickups) transmission has two speed sensors, named VSS #1 and VSS #2. Both are mounted on the outside of the transmission (strictly speaking, both are on the transfer case), but on opposite sides.
VSS#1 is after the transfer case gears, VSS#2 is before. So VSS#1 is the one used for measuring vehicle speed over the ground (speedometer, cruise, ...), and VSS #2 (I believe) is more for keeping the transmission doing the right thing (because the speed the transmission turns is not directly related to speed over the ground, due to the 2-speed transfer case).
So I'm going to guess you replaced VSS #2, as that sounds like it would have more to do with tranmission codes. If that's the case, you might have had the bad luck to lose #1 at the same time, which took out the speedo (or you might have had some under-truck trauma that damaged the wiring bundle?)
So, first, did you replace the #1 or the #2 sensor?

Does a 86 4Runner 22RE have the second speed sensor? I did a inchworm transfer case swap and am having some shifting issues..any help will be appreciated.

Does anyone know the purpose of the wire and switch that goes to the bottom of transfer case on this A340H? I did an Inchworm swap using a gear driven transfer case and don't know how to integrate this wire into system. Any help will be appreciated.
