    isn't there a programmer that can calibrate those?

    Yes the hypertech speedo calibrator works pretty well so far for me, you can change it to any gear ratio as well as whatever size tires you have which is helpful

    Not in particular, you load the hypertech unit onto a computer and download driver's from their website to update the product, then pull the dash pieces off by firmly tugging on them in sections (grab top and bottom of same section of plastic and move inside to outside with the steering wheel as the center), then you unscrew the 5 screws that hold the gauges and the glass bezel in place, and pull out the two connections to the wiring harness. Plug your updated hypertech unit inline and secure the new board in place under the dash. Then plug the hypertech connectors into the spots where the original harness hokup was and you're good to go, reinstall gauges and dash sections and you're done!

    A programmer can't get there through the obd2?

    So I installed some old OME shocks with 886s over the weekend and popped the front end up about 1.75" and now my UCAs rub on the inside of my tires :(.

    Ordered 2 sets of Spidertrax to shove the wheels out 1.25" to get them off the UCA, will be interested to see how much they hit the fender now

    Why not the bora 3/4" spacers? Should have been enough to get off the UCA.

    Spiders have the reputation, I know people who run them on the same trails I run on with zero issues, so I just went with the tried and true.

    I'd consider Bora in the same boat, as far as reputation goes. Those are the only two I'd ever run on my truck.

    I'm running Motorsports-Tech billet aluminum spacers on mine as I only needed 10mm to clear my brakes sufficiently. IMG_20180107_125742.jpg (photo of rear wheel spacer during install of brake conversion and arp studs)
    I feel you, easily the highest quality spacers I've seen, they're perfectly hub and lug centric, had to be tapped on with a rubber mallet the fitment was so tight (Motorsports-Tech and BORA are the same company I think, they are both on the same website)

    I would much rather just run extended studs and a 1/2" spacer, but damn those studs are pricey.

    Yeah but with steelies, 33s, and aggressive use I figure those studs are cheap compared to the damage that broken ones could do :itllbuffout:
