You can build a TC lock up switch, I have never done it, but its fairly easy. You just have to ground a wire to lock the TC.

Welcome to guzzle's TC Lockup Mod Web Page

Guzzle tends to overbuild stuff, but thats a good write up there.

Yes. But be careful at low RPM's, the pump cant make enough pressures to hold the clutch packs and you can damage the tranny. Nothing wrong when pulling and such, but dont treat it like a clutch and lock it at 5mph and crap.

I ran a SP Diesel unit for years, but once I got a built tranny I pulled it.
