I just put an 02 4R100 into my 99. The shifter seems a little hesitant and the indicator needle is off. My wife drives this truck a lot and I don't want her jamming it into the wrong gear.
The Shifter cable and bracket that hold the cable onto the tranny are a little different. The bracket mounts lower on the new one and the linkage itself moves about an inch less on the new one as well. My first guess would be to buy the 02 bracket and cable from the wrecking yard. The problem is no one keeps those. They all throw them away. Who know how long it will be until another one comes in and they remember to keep it for me. Even If I do get one, I fear it will still be wrong on the column since it probably moves farther than the new tranny does on the linkage.
I borrowed the bracket off of my buddies 02 so I have a pattern to make my own bracket, but I fear it will still be a little off at the column.
Can I just take the linkage housing off of the 99 and put it on the 02?
Any suggestions here? Thanks gentlemen!
