46rh to NV3500 Swap (5.2L 4x4)

[dbilik]

Will your truck start without you depressing the clutch? Also, I never bothered to look into how my truck is wired up, but I should see. I assume my cruise control is linked to the switch on my clutch pedal, and if I depressed the clutch in CC it would turn it off? I need to look into that.

(I edited my first post to include this info) The factory manual transmission trucks have this for a hole in the floorpan...



So, the hole I have now works fine for me, but fixing the "oversized hole" like I mentioned in the first post was basically a waste of my time.

Somone needs to clean their carpetting and fix that chewed up heat shielding.

Yes. I covered that on page 1 :P. The harness was already there and very easy to locate, and to my surprise, it was very functional.

Please do look at your cruise control wiring if you get the time! I'm still assuming its because of the P/N switch, but I could be wrong.

Yup, and that is one ugly hand!!!

Just kidding! I hope you don't mind me using your picture.

It might be in the beggining of your thread... but do you have a photo of your park/neutral switch? I don't think I even have one on mine, but if you have a picture I can track down the harness and let you know. Never thought about how the manual trucks operated cruise control.

I don't have a picture, and unfortunately, I can't get one anymore because the harness is in a dump somewhere. The middle wire of the 3 was for the park/neutral switch signal, and the other 2 wires were for the backup lamps. I had to ground the middle wire and hook the other 2 up to the backup lamp switch in the new transmission, so the harness had to go. Lol, the switch turned out to be bad so I still don't have backup lamps.

Question about the NV3500, Will it bolt up to a mag V6 2wd? Or is it different due to the transfer case?

Anyone? I have one lined up for 250 CAD. Just want to make sure it will work.

Yes it will as long as the NV3500 came from a dodge with a magnum engine 2wd. The NV3500 came 2wd and 4wd.

Perfect. The guy just emailed me back and said it's from a 96' 2wd mag. 5 speed here I come.
