Hope nobody gets offended here but I have access to many if not most of the High HP trucks.

There are three twinned trucks that the box can be tested on and any skepticism put to rest. One LLY and Two LB7's

Ben,

I am away for the next week but I can make some calls and get you two HIGH HP twinned LB7's to test the lock-up box on, if it works as you say it does you'll have two sales and all the doubts will be put to rest. The other truck is in Canada but he would be a great test truck as well.

Tony

You need to bring one this weekend with you and save me some shipping. I can test it at oakboro saturday night while you are hunting m-80's.:thumb:

Lol I wasn't saying anything toward you, matter of fact I only read a few last posts on this topic. I was arguing with the thought someone said the converter would slip and cause heat with the gadget. Maybe I need to go back and read a little more lol. The part where I said bens product should work is only my opinion, I almost put after that "but what do I know" but when someone says that it implies they actually know what they are talking about....me, it was just my opinion from thinking about it in my head :)

Simon, your one of the last guys I think should stfu buddy :hug:

His unlock has worked flawlessly, im just getting into the power range where i dont have to unlock as much anymore in 4th at the end of the track. Now were working on locking up when i want it to, it changes from track to track. I think i might need to try the new switch.:D

So where are people really going to see the biggest benefit for this? Sled pulling? Kinda new to this whole diesel/allison trans world and trying to understand the need for this:eek:....In tow/haul mode, doesn't the tcc lock up in 2nd anyway?

For the non sled pullers, and DD/weekend warriors, what kind of benefit would this have?

Yeah definitely! My truck doesnt have an engine in it right now, but it would only take about 5 minutes to temporarily install it in yours if you wanted to 'see it in action'.

Sorry I really don't feel like reading all the other posts right now. Have you figured out how to make an auto locker to force it to lock up in 2nd incase for what ever reason that the TC didn't want to. And are these all handheld controllers, I'd be more happy with one that I can mount to my dash and push on and off like a co pilot. (co pilot sucks the wires like to pull out all the time) otherwise I loved it

Yes, thats exactly what this module does. You can mount the controller to the dash or have it be hand held.

Or you can order it as a "builders kit", meaning ill just include the bare wire with buttons, so you can drill holes and install the buttons directly in your dashboard, instrument panel, etc...
