Thank you for the reply. The tab in Chrome to the right of this one is dedicated to doing exactly that. I just feel more warm and fuzzy when someone on this forum has tested something with these 12-17 year old trucks.

I've bought several off Amazon and E-Bay as well as some 5' extensions. All seem to work just fine.


I have one two S**p-On which have "Made in Chine" stamped on them.

Just be aware, the more length / Connections the less reliable data is. I think 10' is maximum. But, could be wrong.

This one would work nice if you leave the port in the stock position:



A good search term is "OBDII splitter"
