What motor was behind the 99? Motor in yours? 5.9-46RE and 5.2-44RE. They will all bolt up, but the 44 won't hold up as well if yours came with the 5.9. And, if you have the 4.7, you are SOL. They only came out starting in 2000, no way his 99 has the tranny that goes with it.

Forgot to read the title. If your has the 46re then you should also have 5.9 liter. Find out what he has, go from there.

You should have a good chance then. I'm not 100% sure on the wiring.

I'm fairly sure that at the worst you might have to switch some sensors over from your transmission to the other one, but I'm fairly sure they're identical.

They should swap with out a problem. 2001 they switch the park/neutral safety switch connector, that was pretty much the only difference.

If you don't have reverse but you have all forward gears. I would remove the pan and inspect the reverse servo and a missing strut. Or you can get a 300 psi gauge and hook into the line pressure port for reverse and see how much pressure you have.
