I have one on my truck and i love it.As for installing one.I know part of the install involves tapping some wires into a few pcm wires,After that i'm not sure.I'm not quite sure what it exactly does.I don't think it should wear your tranny out faster since it sounds like you up graded some parts.Sorry i couldn't be anymore help.

Default tc switch

I got one on mine and it manually locks the tc which makes my stock tranny shift alot better and it will make it stay in forth gear. here is a link and i will attack the pdf of how to do it hope it helps. http://www.tstproducts.com/Torque%20...p%20Switch.pdf

I love the one I put on my truck.. I spent about.. $10 at advance auto getting the stuff I needed, and it took me about 20 - 30 minutes to run the wires and things. Makes my trans shift alot better, and keeps me from locking and unlocking whenever I'm goin bout 45mph.

Since were on the subject i got a question, my stock converter no long locks up automatically anymore, just in the mornings when it's cold. Would this lock up switch make my converter lock?
