It's your call. You don't have to but sometimes it's nice to be able to automatically downshift. Are you using a b&m ratchet shifter? If so you don't really need it since you can go from d-2 pretty easily without the cable. I plugged mine off on the transmission because it kept leaking out of there.

Even with a built TH350 passing gear is nice, that what it controls.
