bigboy72383 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 i have a 95 pathy that has a automatic that doesn't pull anymore. i also have a 89 hardbody that is ate up with cancer with a 5 speed. i have already swapped transmissions from the 89 to the 95 the only problem is with the electronics. i was wondering with the automatic being computer controlled, how is the pathy going to be affected by the 5 speed. can i just take the computer out or will that mess with the engine computer. i am one of those people that like to have everything right and as clean as if it rolled off the production floor. oh yeah the 5 speed also has some switches on it, i believe they are the reverse switch and cant recall if there is anymore at this time. if any one has done this your help is very much appreciated. thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 The ECU from the AT equipped Pathy will be fine without the tranny computer. You can do the swap that way, you cannot swap in an auto on an originally manual equipped truck without using the Auto ECU. As for the switches and such, you'll have to go through the diagrams. Search this site for a link to download the factory service manuals, and trace the wiring from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
