Speedo Correction
Hey Guys,
Checked my speedo the other day, between tires (315's) and gears (4.30's) my speedo is off. It's only off by 5 or 6 miles per hour at 65MPH, is there a quick/easy way to correct it?

Most of the factory speedos' are off.
I purchased taller tires and by chance corrected it.
GPS confirms it's to the mile now.
You might have to take it to the dealer to have it re-calibrated. I went through this before on another diesel when I changed gear ratios.
