The speedo is fed input from the speed sensor in the transfercase. I
doubt replacing the rear wheel sensor will do any good. However before
you go replacing a bunch of sensors - you might want to have a shop run
diagnostic work on it first. Much better to have them plug in to the
truck and rear sensor data... than to just start throwing hundrid dollar
bills at a problem and hope its fixed. The ABS computer is seperate
from the ECM (engine computer)
