1990-1992 Odometer repair tip

[Motorhead]

I am mostly in the third gen forums but am working on a 1990 First Gen W250 4X4 automatic. When I got it, the speedometer wasn't working. I replaced the mechanical to electronic sending unit that hooks to the transfer case and only the speedometer worked but not the odometer. I took the speedp head out and found a little gear with two teeth missing in the odometer planetary drive. It is mounted to a circuit board on the side of the speedo head. I searched and found this website that sells the two replacement gears. They are easy to get to if you take your time in dis-assembly and re-assembly. Both replacement gears were $56.00 shipped out of Virginia. Here is the website: http://www.speedometergears.com/chrysler-odometer-gears
Just FYI for those who might need this repair

Kerry of laspeedometergear.com sent me up the small & large gear for $25 shipped.

The larger gear is part of the disc, and both Delrin gears are graphite impegnated.

Wished I had known of them. Spent twice as much for both gears.
