Default a little more 4l80e info

i dont have my stall yet, yank is SLOW!!, but i did put the tranny in so i could work out any problems.

no tunnel bashing, there is pleanty of room.
fuel lines have pleany of room also, need to secure them to the top of the tranny where it runs on top.
the 3/4 ton tranny lines i got from the dealer fit well.
still looks like the exhaust will fit but havn't tried it yet, to service the tranny the y pipe and cross member will have to come off.
the tranny mount is exactly 3" farther back, i welded a box to the back of the existing mount. here are some pic's.




tomorrow i put in the transfer case so i can measure the driveshafts. looks like i will be waiting on parts, i will be out of work in a day or 2 without them.

see...I told you the swap wasn't that hard..sure it's not 100% plug and play but I never said it was either

so you do have to get different length driveshafts ??...i figures the rear would be OK but the front would need to be lengthened

lookin good !!!

Are you sticking with the stock 10 bolt in the rear?

Just keep adding weight, it will all work out in the end.
