speedometer gear?

By Greg - 04/18/2003 4:00:41 PM; IP 68.59.218.196

I have a '69mach I 428 cj w/c6. The p.o. replaced the original 3.50 rear gears with a 3.91 trac loc. I'll be replacing the speedometer cable this weekend and need to know how close I can get to accurate at the speedometer without the use of a reducer or changing the rear. How many teeth ?
