get one of these kits, and you can stay in manual low all day long.

Mine stays in first gear. Once a year it shifts into second... Odd I guess. I like the second shift too, stays in first but shifts up when needed. I like it in 4-low.

You can wire an AW4 on toggle switches so you can hold a gear if required or you can buy a paddle shifter set up off a guy on pirate4x4.com that allows manual shifting or for the ecm to take control

You got it, radesigns.

$100 for the unit, $15 shipping to CAN


Either one would be a great addition to a 4x4 Jeep!
