You can swap a 99 4L80E into a 98 vehicle.So based on your chart of transmissions, can I swap a 1999+ 4l80 with my 1998 4l80? And is there anything I should be aware of?
Thank you in advance
The transmission I’m taking out started overheating (snapped cooling line) grinding and slipping, and rebuilding a transmission is a lot more expensive than what I can afford, my plan is to buy one to get me by a while longer till I can do something different like buy new or rebuild it or buy a reman, so I’m trying to figure out what year of 4l80s I can put in my truck.You can swap a 99 4L80E into a 98 vehicle.
As far as what you'd need to be aware of, I'd need a lot more information than what you provided. For example, why you're swapping transmissions instead of rebuilding the unit that is in there now (if in fact it needs to be rebuilt), how the vehicle (presumably a GMT400 HD truck) is currently being used and the like.
Gotcha...If possible, keep your existing transmission - 4L80E 2nd design (center lube) cores are selling for $350-$400, at least here in Vegas and prob so in Michigan.The transmission I’m taking out started overheating (snapped cooling line) grinding and slipping, and rebuilding a transmission is a lot more expensive than what I can afford, my plan is to buy one to get me by a while longer till I can do something different like buy new or rebuild it or buy a reman, so I’m trying to figure out what year of 4l80s I can put in my truck.
