Re: Looking for a local shop for trans swap

You will love OD no matter which way you go. If you find a clean, low mileage 4L80E from a wrecking yard and the controller only $700 that seems like a viable choice.

But IMO, the gear ratios, size, mechanical speedo, of the TH200 4R is the best choice for me. Good luck with your truck I look forward to seeing which way you went.

FWIW, I wouldn't even consider a TH700R4. I absolutely DESPISE the 1-2 drop in that trans. Now a 6 speed....
