SOURCE: 1996 dodge ram 1500 5.2 ltr. Speedometer reads 20 mph when im really traveling 75 mph. Gears shift fine but wont read over 20 mph

Dash problem. You can change the speedo motor. Done to many. From then till today. Old ones are screw in, new ones are soldered.

My truck speedometer stays at 0 until about 20 mph. also it stays in low gear too long. 4x4 auto 318.

The two problems may or may not be related. First go to the vehicle speed sensor on the rear axle to see that the wiring and connection is clean and tight to the sensor. If it is all good there then change the vehicle speed sensor, this should fix the speedometer. The Dodge transmission has it's own speed sensor and if it is affecting the shift, it should be storing a transmission code. Also the wiring harness inside the transmission may be faulty.

05'Dodge 3500 popping front end when truck sits overnight. Faster speed faster popping slower speed slower popping. Usually quits after 20 mph.

Might be a low tire. When they sit over night, and ther isn't enough air in them, they get a flat spot, and it'll stay that way until the tire warms up.

Cummins Diesel Truck Erratic Speedometer and Shifting

Although you didn't mention it, the speedometer probably bounces also. Replacing the speed sensor on the side of the transmission should solve both your problems. Good luck
