Default traction control

i have a stock '04 1500 4x4 hemi. I remember on the window sticker it said something about traction control in the rear axle. I can just barely break'em loose from the line. I know there is plenty of power to do it. Is there a way to get rid of that? I'm in the process of ordering a locker and i would like to be able to smoke'em off the line. Thanks.

There is a plug that goes into the rear differential that you COULD unplug, but I dont think it would make your computer very happy...

Dont do it until ya get advice from a "tech" here though...

The plug you're talking about is for the ABS if I'm not mistaken. The reason you can't get the tires to spin from a start is the TMR, Torque Management Request, controlled by the computer. Nobody has found a way to disable it, yet.
