SUCCESS!!!
Pan and filter in, case mostly filled, trans filled to 9q (all they had) and it’s currently over the high mark which I assume will go down after a road test.
No leaks or weird noise. It does shift into reverse kinda hard, but it turns the back wheels both ways in the air. Road test tomorrow.
Can we guess at the year of the trans by the electronics? (Pic)
Case freaking shifts! Decided to just try it, neutral on the brake, shift, D, and let go, both outputs turn with no funny noise! I guess the click in the case is different when it’s actually turning from the trans or something idk. That’s a really short throw also, kinda wish it was more positive of a throw and click, but whatever. Explains why people want the 4wd indicator to light up.
Ok still getting the O/D off flash but no CEL until I shift gears and start moving things. I’m hoping that’s all from the vss being disconnected. The box will be here today, might try to play with that tomorrow, definitely this weekend. I’ll pull the codes to make sure there is nothing else wrong tomorrow after work.
Tomorrow is the last day of June, so it’s ironic that my rig transitioned to a technically 4wd this month.
Sorry for the dad jokes, I’ll see myself out.
