Can a 4l60e from a 4wd truck be used as a 2wd tranny? What mods must be done? Different tailshaft? Any help appreciated. This was a match for the lq9 i bought and will be going into a 88 camaro. I have the old 700r4 could the tailshaft from that be used?

As far as I can tell you're keeping the donor engine and transmission together?
If thats it then you need to swap out the tailshaft which requires almost total trans teardown. You need a 4L60E tailshaft and an f body specific tail housing with six bolts, that 700 tail won't work.
Even though it's a truck trans it's probably pretty close as far as calibration (valvebody/servo/accumulation)to what was in the '88 originally.

So if i buy a 4l60e tailshaft housing could i use the 700r4 tailshaft or would it have to be a 4l60e tailshaft?
Also if anyone has a 4l60e tailshaft housing and tailshaft i would definitely be interested.
Thanks for the help.

I'm pretty sure the output shaft will fit, but IIRC the 4L60E shaft has lube hole differences.
I have an output shaft with the reluctor wheel and a six bolt tail housing with a speed sensor.
Not sure if I want to sell them but PM me an offer and your zip code if you want.

Heres a cheap output shaft.
Heres both parts if you want to wait out the auction.
These are not mine btw.

The 700 also has teeth cut for the governor. I'm confused, are you building a 700r4 or a 4l60e?
