90-95 (auto) speedo gears all interchangeable?

I just regeared from 4.3 to 4.1, so obviously my speedometer is 2mph off. What I do know is, I have a 20 teeth speedometer gear and I will need a 19 teeth one to match my axle ratio and tires.

I looked through the parts catalog and see that the VZN85 uses a 19 teeth speedo gear. Does this fit on all the other runners (that has an automatic) of the same era regardless of engine?

I thought about using a 18 teeth also, but that'll make the speedo slightly fast. I don't want that!


Anyhow, if the speedo gears in the 90-95 mini truck/runners mix and match, does anyone know where I can find these cheap (other than junk yard or dealer)? I would love to have an accurate speedometer again

well their site is broken... but I do prefer to get a used gear to try this if possible
what I still need to know though is if they are all interchangeable between the 2nd gens... no point spending money on something that won't work
