Where to get speedometer gear after SYE install

So I bought a 98 cherokee a few weeks again and when I bought it the speedo wasn't working. Did some research and determined that its because of the SYE. It is a rugged ridge SYE if that matters but I need to buy a new speedo gear so that it will still read with the SYE. I have already verifies that the speedo works by turning it by hand and it will read on the dash. Currently running 32inch tires so I should need a 31 tooth gear. Np231 case also

A properly installed SYE will not stop the stock speedo from working... Is the blue speedo gear sleeve on the replacement SYE shaft between 2 snap rings like it is supposed to be?

Then check the indexing of the speedometer. You can rotate it in 90 degree intervals and reseat it with the prong clamp. Its cammed so that depending on speedo gear size it will offset the proper amount and still contact the gear teeth on the blue gear I specified earlier.
