You might consider tying in some sort of light to remind you that it is on. It'll stall the truck if you forget.

what does it mean if your trucks stalls, My truck stalls cause I think my t/c is locked all the time. What do I have to replace? Solenoid? tranny relay?

The lock up switches are hard on any tranny, if you have a stock tranny even if its rebuilt be very careful. If you are getting on it or in the power when you lock it up that really puts stress on the trans.
