Does Dodge still sell speedometer angle adapters?

Does anyone know if Dodge still sells the speedo angle drive adapter that screws onto the transfer case? What about the sensor that screws onto that, and the thing w/ the gear that goes in the T case? Thanks

The adapter that goes into the trans case has a steel drive gear. I dought if you have problems with it.

The VSS you can still get from Dodge or aftermarket.

The reducer box you can still get from Dodge also. It will be hit or miss if you get the correct one. Dodge is around $145 for it. Here is a place with them cheaper. Scroll down the page about 3/4 of the way.

The problem is that the reducer box must have seized, and the drive pin that goes into the T case adapter snapped off in it, and I don't know if I'll be able to pick it out. Thanks for the tip on the reducer box.

That same site I linked to has the speedo drive for the Tcase also. Just pull yours and get a tooth count.

I have the same problem except the little square shaft on the gear reducer spun inside the drive gear before breaking off. Now it is rounded out and has a broke piece in it. Tried three different old truck a buddy had and the gear box on all of them was seized. Think I may just throw some jb weld in there and be done.
