    So you have a 4X4 and want A-TRAC? Cut or remove yellow wire with black tracer in the top wiring harness behind the glove box. Either will do I thinks......

    sounds pretty awesome but wouldnt a mod like this void your warranty if you were to have a problem with your 4x4 system??

    Note to self: after allowing Isthatahemi a good 20,000km to make sure this doesn't affect anything else, unplug yellow wire or remove from soldered contact...

    (not off-roading, I'll never actually do it, so it doesn't matter)

    If that's ALL it affects, the A-TRAC in 4Lo, I'd say it's pretty cool.

    So...TRAC or A-TRAC? Because my dash lights up A-TRAC when I press the A-TRAC button.


    Edit - after reading this guys maniacal posts, I think everyone should think twice before cutting on any wires.

    Hemi, have you done this?

    Are you positive that A-Trac is enabled? Sounds great if it works.

    If so, can you be more specific about the wire that you pulled, I've looked behind the glove box and there must be 100 wires there. Which harness is the yellow wire located in?

    Thanks

    Dude.....If you've got a legitimate modification, then post some pictures and a lot more information about the modification. What does it do? How will the truck react...etc.

    We're supposed to trust what you're telling us ? Sorry, I don't think so. Not with the lame amount of information you've given us.

    Anybody who listens to an internet fool who doesn't explain himself and provide proof of said mod is a moron.

    Do yourselves a favor: do not do this until it has been proven.
