Can't say that I have trying to from park to any drive gear, but trying to adjust the tilt on the column sucks. Since you bring up the topic of too much power...how has the 48RE held up to the TST. I want to add a power module to my truck, but I am fearful that the tranny might be Dodge's weak link. Let me know your thoughts on that one.

So far it has held up fine. Mine you I am not running it wide open under load. That would get me to the edge of town and would need a wrecker. The fuel milage is great. I am averaging 21+. I promise you.. You have to be an adult if you are going to push it. If you turn it up high and get on it, you just about don't feel the tranny change gears. It changes extremely soft.

So it seems that the tranny shifts better with a little more power??? of course I would have to play a time or two, but I have looked at Edge and TST and all those modules who claim 1-2 mpg better (on the first setting) Think I will look more into it!!!
