Local Junkyard has a 95 K2500 with a 6.5TD. He claims the tranny is a 4L60e. AFAIK the 6.5TDs only came with 4L80e ? AM I wrong ? My 1/2 95 Tahoe had a 4L80e ? He wants a G for it. was thinking about it for the CUCV.

A quick check at rockauto reveals the 4l60e listed for a 6.5 vin "P", vin "F", and vin"S"....:dunno:

It did not come with turbo trucks, only N/A light duties.
You can check the RPO codes if they are still in the glove box. 4L80E is MT1

It is a turbo and that is what I thought.

Does a G sound like a decent price for a used one ?

What is included in the deal? Whole truck or engine and tranny or just tranny?

sounds high for just a tranny large unknown factor there.

Seems good for the whole engine with all things attached and the tranny

Id be hesitant to pay that much for an auto tranny knowing nothing about it. If it was in a drivable truck then maybe. But im gonna agree with ak diesel driver here

It's at a junkyard. They drove it and will give a 30 day warranty with it.
My 94 1500 6.5 "turbo" has a 4L60E.
Never heard of the 4L60E in a 2500 &^ though. $1000 to me is to much unless he will do R&I. Check Craigs list.
I bought my 4L80E for $400 a known working trans. Just grabed it for a spare.

OK, next question is a 4l80e from an OBD1 truck the same as a 4l80e from an OBD2 truck ?

IIRC the diffs are the plug in and the cooler lines (where they hook into the trans)

$1000 is too much IMO, and I wouldn't mess with anything smaller than an 80. I could break a 60 in a week,
Supossedly in 94 & ^ they changed the Force motors to operate with a different signal from the ECM than the 93 & v trans using a TCM.
When I converted my 96 to DB2 IP I ran into this. Using my 96 4L80E with a pre 93 TCM. The trans actually shifted fine/worked great and still does with both signals. So, no real world differences as far as that gos.
On some older one the atf lines were about a foot seperated.

I dont know about OBD1 vs OBD2.... but I can tell you that the 94 vs 95 are different. 94 uses linkage for the shifter, while 95 switched to the cable shifter. The case is apparently different (not really sure anymore than this, other than my brother discovered this over the weekend when he tried to use a 94 tranny in his 95)

I am planning on putting the tranny in my CUCV and running a comushift but was curious. Also are the gasser 4l80e's different than Diesel ? I know the old TH700s were so were the TH400s.

OK cause on the older trannys the VB was different too but I figured on the 4l80e the differnence in shift patterns might be in the PCM instead.
