afonda, I don't know for sure, but later Fords use the ABS sensor for speed and PCM sense, my Snap-on SolusPro may be able to set a gear factor in it like Chrysler uses. I will have to see if it has that capability.

any calibration shop could do it really... being that your trucks an 02 its probably using the ESS system.. so all theyd have to do is reflash the computer and your done... if you have a hand held tuner you could do it yourself too..

but.. I called and they wont because various reasons... Ford especially wont do it... the others want like $150 and that is not worth it for me.. plus if you add a little bit to the $150, I could just get a scanner/tuner of my own.
