Lock up torque converter

I would like to override the locking torque converter on my 1998 Lincoln Navigator 4x4. I use it for towing and the 35 mph auto lockup feature limits power. Any ideas? Thanks, Ron

Two options, take it our of overdrive and it will change the lockup profile, if you desire better you will need to look into an aftermarket programmer like the Diablosport around 400 bucks and will let you change several drivetrain parameters.

using the tc unlocked will really make the tranny temps climb. I would advise against it.
