Tranny swap, anybody have tips from doing one?
#21
Ok... It appears the connector are C1020 and C1019 ... one fits on each side of the TC kinda........ It appears these are for the post-cat o2 sensors... lol one less thing to worry bout.
Current status:
Tranny mounted back to the frame!! Progress is wonderful...
Next issues to worry about:
1. Seems that the driver side engine mount rubber got torn some during this process .... Gotta look into replacing that now too.
2. Heat shield that was over the exhaust at the Drivers side of the transfer case was falling apart when i pulled it off... Any tips on an alternative?

2) Heat shields are overrated. ;-)

Update and call for help..........................
Truck is back together, but I'm having some issues....
Running the truck 1-2 switches fine, 2-3 is shifting hard at around 30 & 3500rpm when accelerating, or if I let off the accelerator it will shift at lower rpm, but still a noticeable clunk.
3-4 seems to not be working at all, I had the truck up to ~45mph and it was still in 3rd with rpm >3000 ...
I'm hoping there is some adjustment that can be done here and its something stupid and not a bad transmission I just spent all this time/effort to put in...
Thoughts are appreciated. And before you ask, I did make sure P is park and N is neutral on the shifter, 1,2 seem to line up as well 3-D will flip between the two but no noticeable effect...
Thanks guys
