Skip shift eliminator for 2008?

[Steve M]

Kevan
What year di you install it in ?

His is an '08.

I purchased the SSE from:
http://www.speedlogixstore.com/product_p/izm993.htm
$20.

That particular SSE worked perfectly the last (almost) 1000 miles on my 2008 Aero Coupe.
Zero codes, but the little "SHIFT! BECAUSE WE'RE THE GOVT. AND WE'RE HERE TO HELP!" light still comes on.

In response to the 'driving like a pu**y', I beg to differ.
That person obviously has never had a semi behind them trying to "time" the stop light you're stopped at. When you launch and try to get into 2nd to **** of the way, and the skip shift kicks in and almost stalls the car with 60,000 to 80,000 lbs. of mass coming at you at 45mph, the stain in your shorts will verify the need for a SSE.

Thank you for the information.

Kevan....when I clicked on the link you provided, it indicates it is for a Challenger. Is that still the one we want for a 2008 Viper ACR?

Yep.
The Chally has the same Tremec T-6060 that we do.

I found one on eBay yesterday for $13 plus $2 shipping...total $15. I figured for that amount of investment, I would take a chance. Let's hope it works without setting codes or other difficulties.

These seem to work on the 08, but I think we've found solution for 2009 and 2010 http://forums.viperclub.org/threads...possible-solution!!?highlight=skip+shift+2010

The part arrived yesterday and looks great. Can't wait to get it installed and see if it does indeed work as advertised.

I finally had time to get the skip shift eliminator I bought on eBay installed at my local Dodge dealer. So far it works as advertised. Yellow light still illuminates but can shift at will with no blocking. No codes have been set thus far and it is a pleasure to no longer have to be concerned with that d-mn skip shift issue. It only took a minute or two to install the part but the time was taken up during the effort to get the ACR in the shop and up on the lift using boards to lift it enough to get the lift arms underneath the car. Thanks to Norwich DCJ in Norwich, NY and their great Service Manager, Will Griffin, and technician Al Laurenti for his careful work. I will post again if any difficulties show up. But for now...Yippee!!!!

Still works great...no codes set so far. What a pleasure to drive and be able to shift without the nanny biting you at inopportune times. Will keep you posted. For $13 plus $2 shipping on eBay, it is the best bang for your buck to increase the pleasure of driving this beast.

i have had one on my 09 from new with no problems, all skip shift eliminaters are not created equal (the part)

 

[viperprowler1]

Yes...the one I had installed was actually listed for a Dodge Challenger in the eBay presentation.
