Tyler I did the swap to a 2000 GMC 2 Wheel Dr. had a 4L 60 in it. Put a Tremec Inn at five speed you say you do nothing to the computer and it works fine besides it shows it’s in second gear or something like that is that correct, and you also said something about you unplug your transmission and just tie the wires up well on mine. I did do that, but I had to take the module off the transmission shifter side and plug it back in and tie it up with the wiring or the truck would not start everybody’s telling me you have to go into the computer and get rid of the automatic transmission. I did that and everything seems to work properly beside my air-conditioning. He does not want to work when the truck is sitting there idling it works fine once you takeoff and start, cruising the people around here, telling me if I don’t turn the automatic off, it’ll go into limp mode and will not go over 2000 RPMs. I put my stock ECM back in with the automatic in it air-conditioning worked right but it did throw antilock brakes code but the speedometer was way off on the truck. The trick is geared different I guess was trying to get a hold of you to see if this all is your information is all correct because my electrical guys around here says it’s no way it. Can you leave the automatic in the computer
What about driveshafts? I'm doing it on 03 5.3 4x4 just like the one in the video, ext cab, short box, GMC 1500 fully loaded. I can't find any info on driveshafts? Thanks a lot.
When doing a manual T case swap, what are you doing to make the wiring work? I have the bcm out of a manual transmission/T case truck… did not get the T case harness out of said truck but did end up getting another donor manual T case harness… just want to know to keep the service 4wd message from displaying.. my truck is a 99 Silverado and the donor transmission/case is out of an 01 sierra 4.3
I heard about needed a spacer ... is that an automatic thing or is it with the nv3500 too? I have a 01 silverado with the lm7 5.3 and going with the nv3500 out of a 01 as well
So I’m in the middle of the swap and can’t figure out how to make the truck think it’s in either neutral or park it won’t engage the starter to turn over any advice?
i always either zip tied the neutral safety switch up or looked up the pin out and tied the wires together there are 5-6 wires two of them are switched 12v two are park/neutral i tied those four together and always worked fine
Nv3500 vs nv4500 behind a 5.3? I want to tow, I’ve towed my boat in my Dakota with the 3500 and it does just fine, but I want to be able to tow heavier
the swap its self is pretty much the same but it depends if you are going 4x4/2wd there are a few differences in the 2wd lengths they make a short shaft and long shaft ect
Please document your work I'm most interested in the electrical aspect of the swap
There's nothing other then back up lights and speed sensor
When installing a nv35 or 45 do you shimm the throw out bearing? Or just mount it to the trans and throw it all in?

You should go to a driveshaft shop and have them make and install new ones
drive shafts are all the same only difference may be the yoke some are the same and slide right in if not swap the yoke

So I've got the 4l60e with the dog leg transfer, going nv3500 will I need the input shaft?if so do you have a part number?

What did you do about the clutch position switch
What did you do about not having a clutch safety switch?
Nothing

crossmember will bolt right up
Hey man just watched your video I wanted to see if I could find out more information about the swap with keep the electronic 4wd
All you have to do is get a 32 spline input shaft and swap it out its 40$ on ebay
Wat trans ru using? Getrag 290 . Nv3500 or nv4500
Can I use a nv4500 instead of the 3500

Are you gonna film the process of how you do it?
I was going to i ended up forgetting about it tbh i have done 5-6 swaps since this vid was posted i will try to get the next one
Whats your phone number man i got some questions
I’m going to use the getrag nv3500 that has a 27 spline tcase so I can still use my auto trac tcase
Yes but you have to use a 32 spline input shaft
