Lol there is definitely a thread and im not sure how you missed it. For the trail control inorder to get it on your truck simply buy the 4x4 switch with the TM button(sorry dont remember the part number) and install it. After that using ForScan access the Intrument Cluster and you will find drive modes I believe(might be called something else) and simply enable it. After that you are good to go. Also I can state that it works well!!! Definitely an upgrade worth getting

I did all of that was having issues accessing drive mods and getting it to do something. I'll have to play around some more but after 4 hours on a computer my eyes hurt

+1 - I use TM a LOT - not when things are dicey, but when we are just moseying along dodging rocks and ruts it take a lot of the effort so that I can enjoy things a bit more.

Just press the trail control button, set the speed you want using the cruise control up and down buttons, and steer.

You were thinking about the wrong thing sir. What he really wants us to terrain management not the trail control. Trail control and fortunately can I be added to trucks that do nothing with it that would have loved at this time. It is already had at the button for treating management he's just having trouble with that

Are you trying to add Terrain Management, Trail Control, or both?

Your title says Trail Control, but the thread is discussing Terrain Management. Many people have added Terrain Management with the switch and ForScan. But I don't believe anybody has successfully added Trail Control yet.

Trial control hasn’t been figured out yet from what I have read here and other forums where folks are trying to figure out how to activate it compared to factory built trucks. It’s a mystery still

Not confused but thanks. Post is asking about the crawl control if any one has figured it out but is asking for help with the terrain management system as I can only get it to soft pull 3 option not 4 like fx4 trucks should supposedly have. It will go into 4 tho
