Auto Tranny Shift Mods
I have a 98' Cherokee Sport, 4.0L, stock I am looking for a transmission modification for the 1-2 gear option. I am looking for something that I can select 1st and stay in 1st. I don't want to go all the way with the manual shift, auto tranny kits as I like Drive for the usual getting around.
Here is what I found so far:
http://www.radesignsproducts.com/Shift_Controllers.html
These kits seem to be more of manual shift kits for the auto tranny. However, I am a little confused so I sent the guy an email and am waiting for a reply.
I also found this:
http://www.transgo.com/products.php?...dcountview=Yes
This seems to be what I'm looking for... I think. There really isn't a whole lot of description provided though.
Are there any other good kits or mods anybody is aware of? Is there any other way of doing this beside kits and such?

I think I might go the MontanaFab route. The guy at RAdesignsproducts.com was real great about getting back to me. I sent the email Sat. night and got a response Sun. I wasn't expecting anything until Mon. Have to give him props for that.
Anyway, RA Designs Products recommended his "Rail" kit but its full manual. It sounds like I would have to do a little electrical finagling with the TCM to keep the drive option. Furthermore, he was real honest (another thing I give props for) about his kit throwing a code on the ECM.
Although RA Desings Products kit is cheaper, its not as close to what I'm looking for as Montana Fab. That and I don't want ECM constantly throwing a code and the engine light always on.
Thanks for the heads up, I never would have found that.
