    Cucv M1008 4l80E swap

    Sorry for the wait. I did all the little things like wireing, linkage lengthening, and cooler lines while I waited for my rear drive shaft.

    Cucv M1008 4l80E swap

    The th400 tcase adapter is like 4in taller than the one on the 4l80e. so the 4l80e+1 in spacers+The square tube +the rubber isolator made it the height of the th400 adapter. the drivshaft angles are exactly the same as when the th400 was in it.
