Got the torque converter w/ the transmission. Starter isn't a problem.

I got the PN# for the dipstick stuff and flex plate.

I'll have to talk to the dealership to get PN# for the T/C bolts and the flex plate bolts.

I wasn't aware there was a 'pilot bushing' on an A/T. Do you mean the Crankshaft A/T Drive Plate Adapter? The big round do-dad with all the holes that fits between the crank and flex plate?

I'm putting the AW behind a '99 3.5L. I had to use the 3.5L cylinder block plate from an '02 A/T on my M/T because the '97/98 plate wouldn't work with a 3.5L. I remember that from the 3.5L conversion. (along with the correct starter and flex plate (flywheel, in that case)

In addition, I'm going to need a different shifter. Mine has a an extra position so ....




No worries. I did a some research. The PCM connection for the cruise over drive cancel signal (B+). I believe from what I've seen of the PSC docs, this signal can be supplied by the TCU. For what precious little I use cruise I'm not sure its even worth my time to connect.


I picked up the '97 Sport AW this morning. I'm getting read to leave for Moab on Thursday so I'm kinda crunched for time. I dug through what I could to find what I was missing + Danny's stuff above. I could only confirm a few of the parts I have below. I'll get this to the dealership so they can figure it out while I'm gone. I will clean this list up ASAP.
