Thanks for the advice. Not sure what the XYZ is could you explain what I need to check. Also what is the easiest way to get the top bell housing bolts out. I just swapped this tranny and engine in from the donor. (30,000 miles). So I am going back with the original one. with the new motor. We pulled the body off to do the whole swap. Don't want to do that again if I can help it. Should I keep the original TCM since I am swapping the old tranny back in?
Sorry for so many questions. Thanks again

OK to keep module, if it is working. It talks to the other modules, so they should be "happy" with each other. XYZ switch is selector position switch that tells computer where the shifter has been moved to. It is on the side of the tranny where the HVAC drain keeps it wet. Looks like this inside, can be cleaned out and resealed (drill out rivets perhaps). And speaking of seals, might be a good time to drop the oil pan, and swap out the rear main seal on the engine as well.

Maybe a dumb question from a n00b but on the BMW's I've worked on when you swap a transmission (or remove the gearbox) the engine is left balancing on two mounts and it leans/tilts forward... If you don't tie it back or brace it back the fans & pulleys then smash into your radiator.
Anything to worry about like that on our trucks?
