Re: rolled it over
Mine saw all zeros in 1998 when I reset it while doing a body off redo, its got 39986.3 right now, not bad for 19 years, considering my 2005 Ram has 38000 on it now.....

Re: rolled it over
I don't think mine has ever rolled over, somewhere around 89,000. But the title is listed at 840,000 or so because the young person at the title bureau had never seen an odometer with a decimal place indicated by reverse colors. I did not notice until after I had the title and did not feel like going back through the lines to get it corrected.
Re: rolled it over
What's really strange is when my truck rolled over to 43,000 miles, The truck had 42,000 when I bought the truck and the speedo worked perfectly. When it turned over to 43,000 it stuck and the speedometer needle started jumping from like 10 MPH to 70MPH the thing just went crazy and the odometer was stuck on exactly 43,000. About ten miles later the odometer started working again and the needle started working normally again. The cable is greased well, no kinks in it. It was totally inexplicable, it has been working perfectly ever since.

I hope I always stay crazy, because I know if I ever become sane, it will drive me crazy.

Re: rolled it over
Thats wild Michelle...hope mine doesn't do that...to be honest I forgot to grease my speedo cable when I put mine back together....need an adapter so my speedometer is accurate...dont want to do to much until I decide what transmission im going to swap in and weather or not to keep my 16" wheels..Michelle wrote:What's really strange is when my truck rolled over to 43,000 miles, The truck had 42,000 when I bought the truck and the speedo worked perfectly.
