Gotcha. Thank you! It didn’t look like there was to them, but whenever it’s for my car, I’m coming here to make sure. 👍🏻

![]() I was ready to tear my gearshift off and throw it out the window just on the drive home from the dealer. The lockout is like fingernails on a chalkboard and doing the song and dance and loopty loop and do-see-do to get around it “naturally” is just like putting earmuffs on so you hear the fingernails not as harshly.

I put skip shift eliminator on my '18 SS a few days ago. I had already done on a 5th gen SS and 2 C6 'vettes. This 6th gen Camaro was by far the hardest to get my hand up in there to remove the wire harness clip. Works like a charm though and now it shifts where I want when I want.

Sure you could do this, but why drive the way GM wants you to drive, and not the normal way i want to drive. When putzing around town it's awkward to act like your racing in order to use 2nd gear. I hate it!! Been driving clutch for 50 years. It's a terrible feature and doesn't belong on the car. Who buys an SS camaro to save fuel??

IIRC, CAGS on the manuals and AFM on the autos is what prevents a gas guzzler tax on the SS. No such luck on ZL1. Best part of GG tax is that you also get to pay sales tax on it. A tax on a tax! What a country!

Lot of times on purpose I go from 1st to 3rd and 5th anyway when I get lazy. Also, if you just pause for a split second in neutral when the lockout comes up, then it will go into 2nd gear without a hitch. |

After almost 2 years of driving without the eliminator, I was pretty good at avoiding the lockout but every so often it would trigger and annoy me. Installing the skip shift eliminator is such a quality-of-life improvement that I'm actually sad I didn't get it sooner.
If I could go back in time I would've just installed this eliminator during the first oil change. while waiting for the oil to drain. |

We have to be happy at least Tremec made it easily defeated. It’s almost as if they thought this through ahead of time lol
