    Thats probably why you're rpms are so high @75... I have same tires -285/70/17s and 4.10 gears put me back close to stock ratio.

    Very true, but I personally like being slightly over geared versus slightly undergeared, plus when my tires finally give out I'm going to 35s

    Probably a dumb question but did it cost you any MPGs? Been looking at doing the same with my 33's and stock gears for now.

    Looks like you need to run your Microsoft updates to communicate with OV. How current are you?

    Hmmmm. I haven't turned on my computer in almost 10 years. Seriously. I'm in the stone ages. Comes with being a stone mason. I'll try for that. Thank you. Any help is awesome!!

    If installing windows updates does not work, try downloading this and installing it first.
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/Download/confirmation.aspx?id=17718

    Your version of .net framework is out dated, and the handheld software requires a newer version to work properly.

    I don't know what operating system you're running (XP, Vista,?), but hopefully it will be supported enough to update to the required minimum. Good luck!

    Tried to download stock data today after two updates to the handheld (didn't have time to check for ecu compatibility after the first one). Sad to say I'm still left out. No worries though. Figured I'd put this out there for any other 05 auto PreRunners.

    Isn’t that a Windows XP machine? Does the software state the minimum system requirements? XP is kinda old.
