A couple of dumb questions:
1) The tranny I pulled out of my truck is a 700R style. It has an electrical plug that connects on one side and the the TV cable on the other. There is no indication of overdrive on the shift indicator or the shift lever. Is this a non-overdrive version of the transmission? I was told that a 700R is non-overdrive and a 700R4 includes overdrive. Did not find a definitive answer online.
2) I will be installing a 700R4. Will this require a new steering column? Do I need to change the shifter linkage? Did all vehicles with an overdrive have switch to turn it off or a shifter with a D3 selection?
OK. That was more than a couple of dumb questions, but they are in two groups.
