overdrive mod?
 

I thought I read that there is a way to mod the OD switch to keep the tranny out of over drive all the time till you push the button.
Am I wrong or is there a way?

there is a way on the older trucks, cant see why it wouldnt work on the newer trucks. Check over on pavement sucks . com in there tech section. I looked in the links I have saved and cant locate it.

i bet its as simple as changing the switch from a normally open to a normally closed or vice-versa

RE: overdrive mod?
 

no, I think it was the pcm needed to see the OD off pulse @ startup, it's not an on/off type of setup, one thing you may be able to do is to put a switch on the OD solenoid, not 100% sure how that would work but it's a thought. have a look at the service manual wiring diagram to be sure.

what good would that do really?
you could just leave it off in the first place, then turn it on.

It's actually a great mod... it sucks when you jump in head on out and your tranny is up shifting into OD @ 35 mph. DC did it that way to help save on fuel. that is one thing i always hated about my truck. 35 mph & in OD.

I see, mines stick, so i don't use OD very often
