What is involved with programming it for your truck? Does it have to be in the truck?

Green Goblin,

It does not need to be installed in the truck, however it must be programmed through an OBPA (Off Board Programming Adapter). However not many dealers have these as they commonly have the vehicle that requires the replacement pcm in their facility for service at the time. It is a relatively simple process either way.

tts does it if you contact them they can do it for you. for a lb7 it is like $300. Way cheaper than the price I got from a dealer.
