That is good to know! I kept hearing different things. Only thing I thought I found that was conclusive was the some 6.5 non turbo's did get them.

I am excited to go check it all out after work today and get some pictures.

I am hoping this will be a somewhat straightforward of a swap though. Even though I do plan to use the electric pump instead of the mechanical pump from a 6.2 or early 6.5. Mainly because I don't mind wiring in the new harness and because I am too cheap to buy a standalone harness for the 4L80E.

Can anyone tell me if there is a manual hub swap for the Dana 60?

Also how much different are the 3/4 ton and 1 ton crew cab frames? The 1 ton as you may have guessed has some rough rust on the frame rails under the bed, specifically the ds. I am not sure if I need to patch it or just swap it over to the 3/4 ton frame which is fine.
