Done a search, but "I still haven't found, what I'm looking for". Are there any "in pan" valve body "changes" needed, (wiring, additional pressure switch/location etc.), .... for adding 3rd gear lock-up option, to a 700r4. Or, will converter lock-up anytime, I activate the existing solenoid circuit? Thanks

Hope its what your looking for, but why do you want a lockup in 3rd?

Reason: 2500 stall at the moment, with 3.42's. Seems like crusin at 40-50, mph, for any length of time, ... could be "nicer", if locked up.

ok if you want to have third gear lockup in a 700 trans it will depend on what year the 700 is as to what you have to do.. if you can tell me if its 82-86 or 87 & up. i can help get you there.

Trans id code is... 9TU4243. It's a street/strip version, so it has some upgrades. Builder is out of business, ..or I'd be checking with them first.
Thanks.

I have a 700R4 that will lock the converter anytime I push the lock button. Basically all you have to do is bring the wire for the lockup solenoid directly to the bulkhead plug and eliminate all the other switches inside the tranny. It will lock up anytime you energize the solenoid.
