Speedo Failing
SO my speedometer is not accurate sometimes now. It will creep up 5 to even 15 mph faster than what I am actually going. But if I smack it, it reads right. Anyone know what is causing this? and How easy it is to fix?

if you guys have 3:73 or 4:10 gears that could be the problem also if you swappped to a 23 tooth white gear. Mine stripped out in like 2 months.
