trans swap

Is there anyway to swap a trans from a 97 to a 99?

Should be a straight bolt in, NV 4500 will have a different shifter top, use the setup from the 97 or take the top plate off the 99.

Pretty sure 97-99 Auto is a straight bolt in, believe it was 2000 that they changed a few of the internal electronics, still a straight bolt in, but I believe you have to add a resistor to the Trans Temp circuit.

Do a search for it on here, it has been discussed, or perhaps whoever did the swap can chime in with a few more specifics.
