It won't hurt anything but your odometer will be off as well. I'm getting a SCT programmer to correct for my 35's......well and for more performance too.

Some years of F150's have to have a little gear at the end of the spedo cable that has to be replaced to correct your spedometer.

Like these, but I don't know which one you would need. http://www.transmissioncenter.org/Fo...eter_Gears.htm
