No offense taken good sir! I just always enjoy a good joke, and it looked like I missed out on one so I was asking for you to elaborate if anything haha.

And thanks buddmang, that should have been common sense. I feel dumb now

Either of them being worn out can cause an erratic speedo.

All good. I remember seeing a link to a site that sold different drive gears that would accommodate a lift and bigger tires and thus make the speedometer more accurate. Can anyone send me a link to that site?
