Isn't that adjustment more for altering the set point of the speedo? If you want your speedo to read accurately you are going to to have to alter the gearing on the end of the speedo cable where it fits into the gearbox. There are also some outfits that can make you a little geared box that you can fit between the gearbox and the speedometer that will change the ratio so it will read correctly.

This outfit should be able to help. Don't know of any locally.

Rogue is right , u will need 2 change the gearbox cog to the right colour one, the adjustment is just 2 fine tune the speedo.

just did a test with my cordless and a speedo cable,
far out there is 50kms/ph of adjustment there. witch makes sence as the adjuster turns about a quarter of the circumference of the speedo gauge.  :)
i would have thought there might be 20kms/ph max  but blew me away that there was 50kms/hr
 be a lot easier changeing the cog as the whole dash needs pulling apart 2 get 2 the adjuster,
(bloody bedford designers) what were they thinking when they did that? ???

LS120, if you are running the 3 speed Trimatic, you change the cog in the auto where the speedo cable fits, to a white one, if I remember right, I did this and I know it's ok because before I took it of the road I was clocked at a 150km on the open road and issured a ticked for this speed I tried to tell the cop that a bedford could not reach this kind of speed, but for some reason he still gave me the ticket......... >:(
