yeah there is a little reader in your transfercase that tells you how fast you are going, you just need to buy a lager one to make up for the bigger tires. i cant think of what they are called because i am a little drunk but i will get back to you and let you know what you need to replace. its a five minute job if that but the part is a little expensive

The part you need is a speedometer gear.
It's location is on the transfer case.
As of January 2009, the price of speedo gears has sky-rocketed.
They use to be about $20.00, now they are about $60 - $70 each, unless you can find one at the junkyard that is cheaper.
Just my 2 cents.
