quick trans question
i searched quickly but didnt find the answer i was looking for.friend jus totalled his 2000 ecsb and i got the trans out of it.when i took it to the dealer to have them pt it in they said id be better off buying a new one than trying to make it work in my 03.is there really that much difference? i thought the 99-07's were the same

Not sure on your question, but for the dealer part....my dealer also says you don't need to ever change your transmission filter when you change the fluid. Most dealers are stupid.
But im pretty sure there aren't any differences among those years on the 4l60e?

ok let me clarify a little more i was highly pissed when they told me that.i blew my trans awhile back and came across this one for free.i have a 03 ecsb and they told me there were so many differences between 99-02and 03 that "i would be better off to buy a fresh goodwrench and reslove all my problems".this is the same dealer that said i had to pull the heads to put a cam in so i figured id ask up here.

the guy told me although it will bolt up,all the solenoids are different,none of the connections would interchange and it would never shift right but he had one there for 2100 that would work.said it had to be out of a 2003 as that year was a "special trans" that would not interchange with any other year

that seems to be the best option.i guess thats what i get for living in such a small town.NOBODY around my area knows anything about the nbs trucks and none want to mess with them so they act like they know everything.

Agreed.
If you had an 02 it would be a special year too by the sounds of things.
How come the P/N for GM replacement trans is the same for all 99-03
04 something changed apparently.
But its probably something minor, like a pan or something...or a working drain plug...yeah right.
