This is a great thread, but I'm wondering if anyone can comment whether the process of the 4L60 would be much the same as a 4L80 to T56? I haven't seen any successful 4L80e to T56 swaps on any forums. Much appreciated...
As mentioned in the first post of this thread, 4L60Es and T56s are the same length. 4L80Es are longer and use a different mounting point. Swapping from 4L80E to T56 would mean moving the crossmember and mount forward on the frame, and you'd probably need a new (longer) driveshaft.
Thanks for the info, much appreciated. It's only that T56 are common over here and NV4500's are as rare as unicorns. Moving the mounts and shortening the driveshaft I think is not too bad, I'm more concerned about when the engine and gearbox mount if you have any info on that?
I'm surprised it's not more common a procedure over there, but I guess you have easy access to a NV4500 if you needed one.
I wanna change from a TR3340 to a T56 and have to conirm if driveshaft length is the same as the ones with 700 R4This is a great thread, but I'm wondering if anyone can comment whether the process of the 4L60 would be much the same as a 4L80 to T56?
