Well... . IF you can get ahold of Joe at Suncoast (he's the only "tech" person there) He can probably tell ya.



What transmission are you running? Ford, Dodge... . etc

Sorry it is a 47rh I beleive out of a 95 dodge 2500 12V

An RH... . Shoot Amianthus a PM, he converted his Manual trans to an RH. He would know EXACTLY what would be needed.

I am putting an Rh in place of a manual trans in my conversion. . I got the trans from DTT. I have not driven it yet but I have been told me all you need to hook up is the cable that goes to the throttle..... It looks like a kickdown cable on the old chevy's... I was told absolutely not to drive it without that cable hooked up. Also the PCM used to control the lockup and shift into O. D. I am just running switches for each. So when you flip the switch it will lockup etc. It is pretty simple to run. If you have any ???? I will try an help. . Lowell

Since it is a RH, all you need are 2 switches. 1 for O/D and the other for the the lock-up clutch on the TC.



As Josh said, PM Aron or Partyat33 (Dennis). He swapped his NV5600 for a Goerends 47RH as well, on his '01.

so if I hook up the cable it will act the same as it did in its ariginal form like shifting normal ? and how do you tell if it is a RH or an RE?

If you hook up the pressure cable to the throttle, it work just like regular in the first 3 gears. Then, you either have to have switches or a relay of some kind to get overdrive and lockup. I'm only using switches right now in mine but my brother just did a suburban conversion and he has a relay that I will probably end up putting in mine so I don't always have to mess with the switches.

Rod the RE is all electric and doent have the cable, the RH has the detent cable, still got that trans if you want it
