if rear is not engaged = no speedo drive .

otherwise you got something mixed up in order or stripped plastic drive gear .

look here for step by step pics on reman and twin stick 205 http://coloradok5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=253000

Actually even with the rear disengaged the driveshaft will be spun by the rear axle and your speedo would still work.

Pull the speedometer drive and look in the hole at the gear to see if it's stripped out.

dooo forgot about rear shaft along for ride .

so i just unbolt the adapter where the cable goes into and then i should be able to see the gear?

if it is stripped is it replaceable?

Not only replaceable, but often has to be changed when you change tire sizes to correct the reading.
So, its designed to be replaced.

Yep - just like Fordum said it is replaceable. I had to order one for the 205 I'm working with that came from a parts donor truck I bought.

This might not be correct size for your application but its what I got. And turns out it isn't going to work for me either most likely with my 38's.

Make sure you didn't lose the drive shaft the is suppsoed to be in the adapter.
