    KIA Trans swap- Speedometer gear???

    i have an Escort GT


    i read this in the mfactory lsd buy, and i am unsure as to which it is

    For those in the group buy, you may wish to order your speedometer drive gear from Mazda soon, so that you will have it when the diff arrives. The part number you will need is:

    G501-17-341A

    is this the gear for inside the transmission, or the gear for the end of my cable?


    also- if this is not the one for the end of my cable what can i use to make the kia trans, and the EGT speedometer/cable read proper?

    Since you have an egt (please list that cleares next time)

    Go find a protege LX and take the whole cable from the back of the cluster down to the speedo gear.

    The speedo gear in the quote is for the internalpart that drives the one your questioning so disregaurd that

        so my speedometer gear is different? i would have thought my speedometer gear would be the same as a protege lx.... is there a year that it has to be specifically out of, and what color gear, or what part number should i go by? i know there are normally several gears per car...

          Ford is different from Mazda with their speedo assembly. The unit you would want is for the 1.8 BP, which I have.
