Your PCM will wig out with it thinking it's in "P" all the time.

Ya, I knew it was going to cause some issues, but I'm not sure of what effect it will have on driveability.

The way I have it set up right now, when I push in the clutch it grounds the TRS wire that lets the PCM think it's in park so it will only think it's in "P" when I push the clutch in. The clutch switch has a NO and NC pair of wires, so I can take the NC pair and wire it in to a wire on the TRS that makes it think it's in "D" when the clutch is out. Hopefully that will work for a temp. solution until I can get a PCM flash or figure out how to replace the PCM without triggering the anti-theft in the SKIM.

Haven't had much time to work on the Jeep lately. Finished the transmission swap. I had an issue with the rear U-joint because I found out I had a Dana 35 in the rear of my Jeep and needed a hybrid u-joint to make it work with the newer driveshaft. Took it for a spin around the block and it seems to work alright. Unfortunately the rad blew up and I have a ticking coming from the intake valve on the drivers rear cylinder. Going to do some more investigating and hopefully have that fixed soon. Oh ya, picked up an OME lift to install too... :)
