Default Forscan Adapter

Can anyone tell me what Forscan adapter I need to get to be able to re-calibrate my speedometer? I am in the process of doing a leveling kit and updating tires to 35's.

There's lots of data on that in the Forscan sticky thread. Personally, I don't want to mess with the cheap stuff, the dual bus switches, etc, so I bought the OBDLink.

For a PC adapter you guys are paying way to much. I have had this one for 4 years and 3 trucks and the price has not gone up.

Very first page of the Forscan sticky has a link to a document which tells you everything you need to know along with the spreadsheet

I may just pick up the Hypertech speedometer calibrator...the Forscan seems a little complicated and I don't want to screw anything up lol

You'd have to really try hard to screw something up. And if you do, you can always revert to the backup files that you're certain to make before you start.
