You have to install a torque converter lock. This is the link for the one made by BD for your truck. BD Power - Product: TorqLoc

Im going to put one on my 96 that im gonna take of my 93. Will i need a billet shaft in my 96? And will it be safe to keep running it on my 93 if it dont have a billet shaft? Also do I need a torque converter lock on my 93 and 96?
