Just remember, you CAN trip the MIL with this wire cut. As long as you don't
do any "Brake Stances" (Power braking)....you'll be fine. However, I had
spoken with the PVO folks (when they were out here) on this and they
stated: "This was done to prevent unnecesary wear on the driveline. The 45RFE
and 545RFE are not a heavy duty transmission and can break."
It works....there's no question about this (2001-2003 vehicles only - 2004
models don't have the wire anymore)...but be careful. Best bet, put a switch
on the circuit and disable it only when you have to.
