I'm working on a 2004 GMC Sierra k1500 5.3 with a 4l60e. I tore down the transmission and found the sprag was fubar'd, 3rd clutch piston torn molded seal, sun shell splines almost completely stripped, the low roller clutch was hammering away at the case lugs and was jammed stuck with the clunk spring, and case bushing was sitting above flush, the center support bearing was smashed flattening the needle bearings and stick to the center support. On the valve body plate 2 checkballs were jammed in the plate and the paper separator gaskets are stuck like they were glued to case and VB. Since the case is damaged and needs replaced Im looking for a core but can't find but 2wd units that are priced reasonable. So my question is is swapping a 4L60E from a two-wheel drive to a four-wheel drive as straightforward as it is for a 700r4? Or do you have to change any of the harness because of the VSS being on the tail shaft versus the VSS being on the transfer case? From what I understand transmission models from 2001 to 2005 should be compatible for swap. I don't know much about swapping cases or parts for 4L60E for this is my first rebuild of this model but have done several 700r4s and am very familiar with its predecessor. I have a empty case from a 2009 model and 2007 that I've been trying to investigate being able to use but don't want to put everything together just to find out without researching it first. If I was to use the valve body and harness from the 2004 in a 2009 would that work? Or is the hydraulic fluid circuits different in any way that won't be compatible with the valve body? By the way the transfer case is a 246 which is also being rebuilt
