I am at a loss as to how I determine the correct value for the PSOM,it is currently(Stock)
setting of 972,now,according to a Radar Gun it is 4 mph fast
with the new (smaller) tire's on it,,so what value do I need to enter to get it right?,or how do determine that myself?

PSOM Values

9.72 is the setting for the stock 235/75-15 all-season tires which turn 720revs/mile. What tires are you running now?
The formula for a 3800# axle (108 tooth exciter ring) is:

(revs/mi.) x .0135 = PSOM conversion constant

For the 5300# and larger axles it's .015 x revs/mi.

Beg borrow or steal a copy of the 96 shop manual and copy pages 13-01-27,28 and 45. It's all there.
