2nd Gear TC lockup
TC LOCKUP I know this is the TSB for the cold weather warm up but it also states it enables 2nd gear TC lockup on a manual downshift. Does this mean if you select 2nd it will also lock just going down the road.
I tow a trailer 2nd lock would be nice for the back roads. Also does anyone know if this can be enabled for the 98.5+ trucks.

I highly doubt it.
The 47RE in stock form can't handle 2nd gear lockup, not enough line pressure and a crappy Torque Converter.
Actually surprised the 48RE can.

Is it stock, or has it had aftermarket magic added?

As mentioned by Snoking, DTT's 47RE does lock up in 2nd gear. It's very impressive. For future reference to anyone considering a tranny upgrade...I came down Pikes Peak in second at 8500 lbs and believe I could have made it all the way with no brakes if it wasn't for rubber necking traffic.
