Does anybody know what changes (if any) were made in the 4R70W from 1997 to 1999??? I ask
because I was going to purchase a B&M Shiftplus for my 99 but I can only find part numbers up to '97. I called B&M and they told me they didn't have anything for the '99. Is the person on the phone lazy (he sounded like I was bothering him)or are the trannys that much different???

Thanks
Mike

Hey Mike, great timing. I just called them last week to ask the same question and I got a cold shoulder too. What a disappointment. I really wanted to try one. For the money it sounds great!

Small world I'm in Mikwaukee, used to commute to Osh to work.

Tiger,
I had one in my hand (for the 97) but figured if the trannys were different I may mess something up then have to pay to have it fixed, didn't think it was worth the hassle for a $40 piece. I'm with you I would really like to see how well this thing works...

Mike

P.S. Where did you work in Oshkosh???
