4L80e swap Questions
4L80e swap Questions Im in the processs of gathering parts for my 4l80e swap in my '97 Ls swapped
TA. So far Ive scored a 4l80e from a 99 chevy van. Van was a roll over so it ran until that point. Regardless Im rebuilding this unit with a Probuilt kit I ordered from Dana last week (great guy to deal with btw).
2 questions, I grabbed the 1350 slip yoke from the vans drive shaft, will this work fine with a conversion U Joint?
Other question is with the wiring harness. I think I would like to repin my current 4l60e plug and add the extra speed sensor. To anyone that has gone this route , was there enough slack in the stock 4l60 harness to reach around the other side of the 4l80e? As the 4l60 plug is on tne passenger side and tbe 80e is on the drivers side. If not I have a an extra Ls truck wiring harness with 4l80e E plugs on it and will strip it and pin it in my pcm.
Thanks John

Yes, I had enough slack, actually extra, however I reworked my harness. You can use the two extra wires once you repin trans plug, to repin the PCM and add the speed sensor. Its quite simple. Just google it there are alot of DIY guides. As far as the van yoke, yes this will work. 1350 to whatever size your stock has.
