3rd Gear in the 46re Transmission
I have not been able to figure out how to manually select and hold 3rd gear for towing. The only way I can get it is to turn OD off which puts it into 4th. Then turn OD back on which puts it into 3rd until the tranny decides it down't need it anymore. The other way is to leave OD on and mash the gas to force it to downshift. Problem is that I have to keep mashing the gas when sometimes it's not really necessary.
I would like to be able to manually select 3rd and use it as I feel necessary without having to keep my foot in it.

isn't the 46re an electronic tranny? no bands?
as for holding third gear, you are pretty much SOL with that.. The tranny will respond to its power needs.. There may be an aftermarket controller you can buy that will allow for custom shift points, and gear selection override..
edit.. my mistake, i believe its 45rfe thats electronically controlled..
