today i put the swap threw the paces pulling my 26 ft cuddy cabin boat and it worked perfect . this boat is what cause me to do the swap after it ate up the 4l60e . this is great news for me

 

The shift lever on the newer trucks just unbolts. The earlier versions of this body style need a new column. but the older ones are easier as far as wiring goes. since the backup light switch and nuetral saftey switch are on the column.

 

great thanks for that info ,yea my back up lights arent working of course.and the auto selector is still just hanging out on the column .i plan to remove it but havent yet. thanks

 

I found some information regarding the <2007 tahoe> according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA):
-253 Consumer complaints
-4 Car Recalls
-21 Safety Bulletins
-2 Investigations

Source: 1998 Chevrolet Tahoe Recall and Car Reports, Ratings and User Comments

 

On the trans switch for auto trans, the 2 wires you need are a pink and a light green, hook these two wires to the rev switch on the side of tranny and your backup lights will work. You can test the wires by "Key ON Touch Wires Together" The neutral start switch can be done the same way. the colors for these on the tranny switch are "purple is hot in start position, puple with white strip goes to start relay." hook one of these to each side of switch on pedal. This will also help idle when setting at a stop light by bringing it up when clutch is pushed in and down when its out.

 

And your point is?

 

Haha no real point, just posting information about the '98 tahoe

 

But you said initially it was for the 2007 Tahoe and the source was the '98 Recall etc.

 

so is anyone else thinking about doing the swap ? a guy up the road from me has a 98 silverado and just spent around 1200 bucks meanwhile i was trying to get him to swap in a 5 speed and he;s driving his truck again but he said the other day that it's starting to act up again i guessing he's wishing he had made the swap for less than $500 . gm needs to never build this trans again or anything close to it.

 

I am thinking of doing this swap in my 99 burban my thing is finding a good nv4500 transmission and everything for cheap.
