Default 4l80e question

Can I get rid of the sensor/control unit that my shift rod goes thru?

When I built the harness that plug got eliminated so I know nothing is being reported from it. Just didn't know it it was used for anything else like to support the rod of something like that.

Also I pulled the pan today and it was pretty clean! Magnet had a little material on it and the filter looked pretty clean too. I was going to throw some alto clutches in there but now I'm wondering if I need to spend the cash or not. Going to do the HD2 kit and was going to include the springs upgrade to so I figured while I was in there I should do those as well.

Honestly I really don't know what I'm getting into here, plenty of engine, suspension, and electrical work but never dig into a trans too deep. Only did shift kits to VB....

Yes u can remove tht. Its your park neutral safety switch. It also indicates which gear your in on the dash indicator. If its an older swap or diff vehicle its not needed.
