Speedo recalibration for larger tires

I was just curious what you guys are doing to reprogram your speedometers for larger tires on the new 6.4L Diesel trucks? I haven't been able to find a device to do it it. I bought the superchips cortex and it "isn't available yet" meaning it probably never will be able to program. I also work at a Ford Dealership and my techs haven't been able to set the size either. Thanks in advance for your help.

I thought I had this all figured out and purchased the Pro Comp ACCU Pro Speedometer & Odometer Calibrator as per their website they advertise it's tire range from 24" - 44" plus the ability to adjust for gear ratio changes. I figured why spend roughly $300.00 for the other "inline type" where you have to splice wires etc. I thought it was all good until I hooked it up and it only gave me a tire range from 30"-35" Since I'm running 37's it was still about 3-4mph off AND there's no option to adjust for gear ratios. After leaving numerous messages for a non existent tech support I tried calling Hypermax (who actually makes it) they said "no it's only good up to 35" tires". Sounds like false advertising to me! I'll be taking this thing back.

Has anyone had any luck with the TS Performance Re-Speed or the Superlift Truspeed? Those are the only two I know of that run "in line" and are not a programmer type. -thanks
