Icon5 Re-calibrating the Speedometer

I own a 2007 Ford Ranger XLT 2wd 3.0 manual transmission and was looking for something to re-calibrate my speedometer for tire size changes and maybe a rear-end gear change.

I asked my local Ford dealership if they could re-calibrate my speedometer and they replied they could not do it; sump'tin about the law and liability issues in North Carolina.

I posted this question on another Ranger forum and the response was check with Bama Chips, SCT and Superchips. I contacted all three and only Superchips responded with their model #1815 that retails for $499. After waiting several days with no response, I followed up with another inquiry to Bama Chips and SCT.

There seems to be few performance options for the 3.0. I was hoping to find more choices for re-calibrating the speedometer.

Thanks for the reply 'ScottG'.
According to the application information on the Summit Racing site says it fits all 2wd Rangers from 1998 to 2003.
I have a 2007.
I appreciate your effort.

I would contact Superlift and check specs to be sure.

yeah, i know it says it ends on 2003

but i its gets wired in, and acts as a resister for the signal, so id Assume it works, but without someone trying it, theres no straight answer
