we have a basic tune and the truck spins over just fine the only thing is it wont allow the tow/haul button to work so ill probably have to get the BCM flashed.

pretty simple install. pull the 10mm bolt for the park brake release. pull the 2 screws. pull the whole bottom cover off. pull the 2 covers apart around the steering wheel. pull the rubber boot to the end of the shifter, remove the torx screw. remove the 4 10mm nuts that hold the lower bracket under the steering. then remove the 4 15mm nuts and drop the steering down. remove the 3 torx screws holding the "selector bracket" then install the new one that only has the P R N D M. reinstall in reverse. FYI it will not have tow/haul or the manual shifter options until you flash the BCM with the new server. *this is just a theory, may not be the problem*

Tools needed:
15mm deep drive 3/8" drive
short 3/8" ratchet
6" extension
10mm 1/4" drive deep drive
6" 1/4" extension
short 1/4" drive ratchet
