Search the tuner apps out there and see if they offer something that'll work for you. There's no cable to "adjust" for kickdown on the 4R70w.

Keep it out of OD around town to start with for better driving. What wheels and tires are on it?

5star tuned mine, would recommend. Look for a used and unlocked SCT X4 and just buy a tune. Last X4 I nabbed was $100.

Ford hasn't used a "kickdown cable" since the era of the C-series transmissions and carburetors.
