AOD/AODE/ 4R70W – LINKAGE

 

The linkage for your shift lever may not be in the exact position you have removed from vehicle. If this is the case it is a relatively easy swap. Simply remove transmission pan. You will see a pin going through linkage shaft. Remove pin with a pair of pliers (needle nose or angled cutting type). Remove large nut from end of shaft and slide out. **Be sure to take note of position of lever and INSTALL in same position that it was in old transmission.

 

This is necessary to swap over sometimes due to the many different levers and position of levers.
