Bright lights not working

69 up wood bed

Re: Voltage Regulator keeps Frying!

Re: Speed odometer

Speedometer started working after getting up to about 30 which was actually 50 mph, works fine now and have 150 miles on my truck. Problem is its off about 20 mph due to going from 355 to 323 gears and 17 in. Does someone have gears and which one should I use?
