Mystery Switch ?

I was thinking of installing a mystery switch to keep the TC locked at certain times. Question is, Will it harm my stock tranny if I use it properly and dont let it shift while it is locked up? Thanks Pete

I have utilized a lockup switch for years now with no ill effects. IMO when used appropriately, it can save your tranny some grief.

What you said above is the key: use it properly.

Do a search. Many have done this.
There are instructions including which pins to use.

Thanks for the info. If you lock it up and run at lower RPM's is it hard on the tranny?
