I read about your 2004r transmission..... That can be a STOUT transmission for your truck! May I suggest you call Art Carr in Huntington Beach, Ca.
He is famous for his 200 r4 transmission builds. ( It would not surprise me if that tranny , out of the Corvette, was built by his shop.)
Your 700 transmission is also the correct original, But if the 200 is still good....

I worked for him for a while ( California Performance Transmissions)
