A speedo Calibration shop can recalibrate your speedo to read correct ...

Best to have that job done by the pro's ..

You need to know the current tire diameter and either the drive or drive Gear tooth count.

Well crap, it’s been awhile since I used the TCI speedo gear calculator. I didn’t know they discontinued it. Looks like they still sell the gears.

I did a quick google search, JEGS has a calculator as well

From what I understand the external calibration box is required to achieve the proper ratio between the transfer case and speedometer, GM used it for a reason.
They are available, but pricey $$.
