Just recently I have learned of the "Zip Tie Shift" Mod where you use zip ties on the tranny cable that connects to the throttle, and tightened by pulling out some of the slack in it after it connects to the TB.
Anyways, the free zip tie shift mod definetly works. My shifts are firmer and faster in both my 94 and 00 XJ... but I couldnt help but think of any potential negative side effects that this mod may cause.
I asked Dino Savva over at JU and he stated that although the mod works and provides faster and firmer shifts, it will shorten the life of the tranny so basically to sum it up, its a trade-off between faster shifts and reduced tranny life.
For those who have done the mod, have any thoughts? If what Dino said is true then I'll be taking off my zip ties, but what a shame... I really liked it
