Is the wiring still in place for the tcu? If so, you should be able to use it for your shift box.
They give very good installation instructions on their site.
The shifter moves a cable. The cable goes to a shaft on the transmission. The shaft goes thru an electrical switch and then down to the valve body.It is in this electrical switch that controls the shift soloniods. To run the soloniods, you need 12v.
The manumatic mod does this thru the...
Not sure on the shift box wiring, but as far as the shifter goes, just hook the cable to it and shift. I would have to assume that the box will need wired to the shift soloniods in the transmission. That's easy enough. It will probably need a rpm signal from the ecu and an overdrive switch.
I did it because I can revert back to stock if I wanted to. It is easier to wire the 92 selector. You can take it off the top of the transmission and wire it on the bench. Then it's just a matter of running a couple of wires into the cab. Mine was a manual 5 speed that I swapped for an auto.
Nope, just the stock shifter. I did take the controller off the top of the transmission and replace it with a 92. The 93 is a modular setup and the 92 has a wiring harness.
Freelancers on here can do it pretty cheap. Definitely upgrade the clutches. The alto kit has the end clutches. The upgraded front clutch kit comes from kiggley.
Youtube dsm transmission. Transdude did a bunch of them. Atdsm.com has a bunch of information also. I found it pretty simple. I also did all the bushings. I didn't want any problems. Harbor freight sells a bushing driver kit. I also found myself using alternate methods to drive them home...
2500.00? I built mine for less than 500.00. I did the rebuild myself. If you're going to be throwing some torque at it, just freshen it up with new clutches and seals. A clutch and seals kit is only 250.00 shipped from alto.
Did you replace the oil cooler? If not, that will contribute to trashing an engine in no time as well. Trying to clean them is pointless. I would throw the one you have now in the trash and run an external setup. Do not reuse the one you have now. It is contaminated with metal bits.
