My only issue is I have a 2004r and it shifts way too early in light throttle driving, so I mostly drive around town in D as even with 4.10 gearing 30 in OD lugs the engine more than I like.
I moved my vacuum hose over to the manifold, and now the TCC doesn't unlock when coasting. I like this much better than having the TCC re-lock eight seconds after every time I coast. I was finding myself trying not to coast so that the TCC wouldn't unlock. That's just dumb. Anyway, engine braking will be good when going down steep mountain passes.
