4EAT Phase2 backdate to 4EAT Phase1 on a 99 BG6
So I recently purchased this nice, clean, 99 OB Limited, the transmission was rebuilt 20K before I purchased the car. I don't know who did it.
I can't stand the AT's shift mannerisms. The gear hunting, the shift flares, rolling into the throttle while pulling away from a stop light/sign and it feels like nothing changed(only an occasional issue, but irritating none the less). . . I also have a 91 Legacy LSI wagon 2.2L, non-turbo, with a 4EAT Phase1 trans in it. I need to do some engine work, and rebuild the transmission. I figured while I had it out and apart, I would look into swapping the Phase1 into the 99 OB. Has anyone else done this back dating? Definitely have a snug budget for this project. I'm not looking at making either one into a performer by any means. The 91 is going to get repaired so my daughter(soon to be 16) can "buy it" (she's paying for the parts for me to repair the car). The 99 OB is my commuter vehicle, and see's in excess of 35K a year. So longevity is the goal. Thanks for the help! |
