Default Speedo wrong

My 95 speedometer is wrong due to 3:73 rear gears and larger tires. What is the best and/or cheapest way to fix this?

Ford dealer for most all the gears. If you need a 23 tooth, they are available at the Dodge dealer. Must be used in steep geared Jeeps. About 1/2 the price of a Ford gear too.

You can in 99+ cars. Pre 99 you need a gear to correct it.
