After a rather long and tedious day yesterday, the swap is done.
02 NA 3.29 trans, swapped my HD diff. I still need to re-tune for the ratio change, but HPT was being an ass because i didn't have wifi in the shop.
Decided to go out the bottom, since i have access to a lift and engine support tools.
First impression is that it drives incredibly smooth, and i have been overlooking the effects of mileage on my trans. I only drove it 6mi very gently, but it gave no indication of any issues.
Threw in some pictures to show the process a bit. New trans, broken band, diff comparison...
