I am just about ready to do this transmission switch and I have some very important questions: First, how do I wire up the overdrive with the solenoid and relay and all that? The old AW55 did not require it and I am lost. I have no problem getting the shift knob and side button. Is there a step by step guide to doing this? Where does the wiring hook up to tne main harness and where is the relay supposED to be and the solenoid? Secondly, which drive shaft will need to be replaced since the tranny will be a bit longer, the front or rear? Your help has been great so far. thanks.
