I've got a truck with a bad trans and was wondering if the trans would fit out of a 1998 1500. Also if there would be any problems making that swap.

if the trucks have the same engine size the tranny's will swap out straight away. but if one is a six banger and one an eight. then, no. the six uses a 4l60E and the eight uses a 4l80E. toivo

i have come across many v8s with the 4l60e mine including the only difference to my knowledge is a sprag or something inside the tranny if you take one from a v6 and put it in a v8 and hot rod it it will break if it is stock.....but if you drive normal it will be fine

I know a 95 can only be replaced with a 95 because of changes that occured in 95 and in 96 to solenoids, I am not aware why the book would say a 97 couldn't be used in a 96 or a 98
