Hello all. Love the group, mostly lurk as I dont have a 'stang but the info here applies to my 91 5.0L HO cat as well. Wondering if anyone can provide info on how to downshift the Ford AOD to 2nd gear? The shift select runs from 1st to D then D overdrive. There have been plenty of times it would be nice to shift into 2nd when I want, not when the rpms and TB dictate. If not able to be done, how do I reset the shift points on the TB cable? The tranny was rebuilt 5 years ago but the shop set the shift point so that not much of 2nd gear is used. The reasoning by them was that the AOD has issues in not being able to constantly handle the power from the 5.0s Since the warranty period is long gone, I'd like to set the shift point back to at least what was stock.
