EBPV brake for automatic

I've seen this write up for manual trucks, but have never seen it for the slush boxes. The posts say click here or on the diagram, but NEVER have anything to click on. I know you have to have a way to manually lock the TC, so that is one major difference. Other than that, what else is different? Is there a way to wire up the lock up switch so that it only comes on when the EBPV activates?

I've read about all the negatives concerning using it as a brake. Frankly, I don't care. I'm moving to FL, and will replace it with a new, freer flowing piece.

Please help with the details for this mod.

Thats a good one too Howard the only thing i like better about the guzzle one is it eliminates the flashing O/D light.

I agree the light is annoying. However, there is a lot less to mess up with the simple wiring of the DI version.

I agree with strokin. I read guzzles mod many times and will probably either put a piece of tape over it or just pull the bulb. I don't wan't to fry anything.

SP Diesel setup

Has anyone tried the SP Diesel setup? They are not cheap but supposed to be all plug and play? I have seen them and read a lot about them but not talked to anyone with first hand experience with it....Thanks for any input...

I don't want to bash a sponsor of the .org but this time I have to say my piece. Don't waste your money on the SP unit. It is a POS, it never worked and the support was totally worthless. Don't buy it. I love the .org but I can't let another member make the same mistake I did.
