Of course its the guy bitching about nonsense posts in the shoutbox to post something like that...

no need to respond like a total tool. I was planning on helping the kid out some more...

If its free, tell me where I can get the stuff for free, because I got screwed!

As far as parts go....he'll need a trans, flexplate, converter, shifter, shifter linkage, dipstick, trans cooler & lines, shifter bezel (if you want a stock look), could swap pedal assembly, possibly a driveshaft depending on the trans....let me think about the rest.

Here's a link to Dave King's complete 4R70 swap article, should answer just about every question you have - its a very thorough article.
