Bowtie overdrives has a tv cable that will work.

Well that makes it easy! Thank you for the help!

I was going to use the 24v signal to operate a 24v relay to turn off 12v signal when not in use. Basically just to turn the 12v off to prevent battery drain.

Back to the swap...I managed to kill a alternator regulator and blow out a geared hub seal. I'm sure the seal is from the swap and everything is spinning faster now. I still have tc locking switch as temporary switch ran to drivers seat. I've been thinking about putting a y adapter on the...

I agree. I made several assumptions that cost me $$$$. It's probably worth a sticky on the swap. We have enough information including parts lists to benefit our users. Too bad I'm not organized enough to do that sort of thing.

Update on Bowtie Overdrives: I have been unsuccessful in getting any monetary help from Bowtie Overdrives. I paid a reputable shop to install the trans purchased from Bowtie. Bowtie claims we did not follow their warranty instructions by providing line pressures and other items to make sure it...

Yesterday I made a temporary harness for the converter lockup with a on/off switch. All I can say is wow. It really does calm everything down. Makes less noise, lowers rpm and really cuts down the cooling fan cycles! I haven't had on on interstate but around 50 mph it is a dream. The engine...

Taking what you say into account, Why not just supply solid 12v signal. It will unlock when not in 4th. It would be the easiest and cleanest wiring option also.

Update on the swap. The trans had to come back out and be re-rebuilt. I drove the HMMWV less than 100 miles. Reverse started slipping. Felt literally like a badly slipping manual clutch. When you selected reverse it would barely make a shifting noise and barely move. I talked to Bowtie initially...

Threaded rod in hand. Wiring diagram submitted to experts for approval! Thank you in advance

Thank you!

I bought that exact part when I was thinking I would go the 6l80 route. Do you remember the rod size/thread pitch? What are the parts called the rod screws into?

Looking at the the shifter linkage. Stock was a rod bent in the shape of a U. Does anyone have a picture handy of what we know works? I'll make new from threaded rod I guess. Looks like it needs to be longer. Any suggestions would be great. Mogman, I'm going to attempt drawing a schematic and...

Bowtie did not supply a pig tail. I ordered one and they sent a wiring diagram for the trans But I really don't understand it. I plan on calling them Monday for a clarification unless someone could tell me what to wire to where. I also ordered a 24 to 12 V step down converter good for 40 amps...

Update: the 700R4 is installed but not yet complete. The shop I used did most of the work. I need to finish shifter linkage, and run 12v signal to trans for brake switch. I did drive it about 50 miles on the interstate manually shifting. My recorded top speed was 75mph. It will run 70mph but...

I always get that backwards. I think you are right

I was inspecting the dual pole switch I ordered. It looks like one side is normally open and another normally closed. I'm assuming normally closed is for brake light. Im hoping normally open is correct for trans lockup. Meaning the presence of 12v causes the tc to lock and the absence of 12v...

Great info! Thank you

I understand now, the gauge is only for monitoring. Not necessary for normal operation.

Odd. They did not mention a temp gauge. Here my list from Bowtie.
