Hmm, maybe I asked the wrong question...

The more I research, the more confused I am about the '03 tranny...

I remember when I replaced my solenoids and broke my wire harness, I had to find a "different" style harness...For some reason mine was a 19 Pin compared to 14 or 16 pin...

Are the bell housings the same?

Are the trans mounts in the same location across the board?

If I wanted to find a "donor" to rebuild or send to TEP, I would need to find an '03, correct?

I see the difference about the diff also (HD)...

I see that the VB, CP, line fittings, and check balls are all a little different, but other than that, what makes the '03 so unique?

Sorry to thread jack!
