Default engine swap with tranny swap

Hi everyone,

We have a 1995 dually with flat bed and ball hitch, 5.7 liter engine with auto trans that has failed, so we bought a 1998 suburban with a 7.4 liter and 4wd for the trans and will swap the engine and trans out and put it into the dually. Does this sound doable and are there big probs with trying this swap?

thanks to all who read this and especially to those who know aabout this plan.

Is the '95 a 4x4 also?

Allan, no the 95 is not a 4wd, I expect some adjustment will be necessary because of that.
