Sorry Mike, forgot to mention its a '97, 5.2l, 3.55, 5sp.

There was some discussion before on this, but no one seemed to know if
the DRB would acutally allow variable recalibration, or could just
compensate for the 2 tire sizes available from the factory and the 3
different rear-ends. Maybe its time to wander into the dealer and find
their DRB expert...

Might wanna check the archives to be sure (this has been discussed
before)
but if I remember correctly, it's a computer reprogram that has to be
done.
BTW, might help to know what year Dak you have.
