Default 60e to 80e swap
Okay so I will be doing a 80e swap on a 08 sierra soon. Have a 05 trans, circle d stall along with the circle d flex plate. I know the rear mount cross member needs modified, the drive shaft shortened, the yoke that fits the 80 and repin the harness. What else am I missing? Also, I believe the TCM just needs flashed to a 80 OS?
Any help would be great.

Are you 2wd?

I can't answer your questions, but I'm along for the ride as I will need to tackle this sometime in the future. Sub'd

You might need some tranny lines. Otherwise I think you have it covered.
