I just installed a Baumann TCS Programmable Trans computer in my 91 E4OD . Trans had very slippy 1-2 shift and was always "hunting for TC lockup". I had the trans rebuilt but it changed nothing. I even swapped out the OEM computer with another OEM, no change. The new Baumann TCS, even with the "startup” program, fixed it immediately . I'm sooo friggin stoked. Everything, tire size, diff ratio, speedo gear teeth count is adjustable. Torque Converter can be set to lockup even down to 2nd gear, and you can program WHAT SPEED you want trans to upshift or downshift in EACH GEAR. You can also adjust “line pressure” if you want and know what you’re doing, but Baumann doesn’t recommend messing with it. You hook up a laptop computer to the new computer and can watch the readings change AS YOU DRIVE. The display shows speed, current gear, TC locked or not, FIPL voltage, trans temp. TC will not lock until trans temp reaches 100 deg. Also, you can flip a switch on the steering wheel cruise control and use the CC buttons to shift it MANUALLY, click, click, click. Also, you can flip a switch and it'll go into your TOW Program. Right now, I’m driving around town at 35 MPH/1200RPM/4th-gear/TC-locked and diff gears @ 4.10(oh, and the engine is a 91 7.3 IDI diesel-these TCS work on gas engines as well). This Baumann TCS is FRIGGIN AWESOME. And at $500.00+/- it's worth every penny to me. Has anyone else heard of these? Good or bad results over the long run. OkieGringo
