Speedo change

i installed my 31" bfgs a while back from the stock tires, and need to know how and what to set my speedometer to. Its a 1995, i think i can change it using the ignition key and the odometer button?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, and the single-wire connector under the glovebox. This is only true if it's NOT an OBD-II truck. Read this:

Why is OBD-II any different? I checked the conversion constant on my dad's 96 the same way as the older ones. When I replaced my PSOM, I got one out of a 96 and programmed it the same way as my old one.

I think with that system, you need to use the OBD-II interface to set the conversion constant so everything works right.
