    Speaking of GPS, after the new gears I ran my GPS on the way to work to get the scangauge calibrated again. I had the scangauge set at 10%, or at least 10 on the scale, and was way off with the new gears. I'm now at 1% to get the speeds to match up. The factory speedo is almost dead on again. :D

    Didn't know the scan gauge could do that. Might have to try it.

    I've messed with it before but didn't think it re calibrated the actual truck speedo.


    Mine might be different though.

    Sorry Chris, didn't mean to imply that it calibrated the truck speedo. Just the speed displayed on the scan gauge.

    Wishful thinking! I use the GPS anyways so it's not a big deal.
