1996 transmission into a 1995 F Body

I have a good auto trans out of a 1996 3.8L and plan to put it into a 1995 3.4L with a bad trans.

What do I need to do to make that swap work/

Thanks for your help/ advise.

'95 and '96 use different 3-2 downshift solenoids with different resistances. If you swap them, you'll throw a code, and cause the trans to go into "limp mode". I've seen people simply swap the solenoids, but the actual valve is different. I've seen this mismatch cause WOT 3-2 downshift issues.

I think 94-95 trans can swap but to notice it should have pwm in the front pump frank can tell you for sure though.

Correction, 94 and early 95 are non PWM.

I've never seen any 1995 4L60E that were non PWM.

I have one in my car. (car is 94 with a 95 trans in it) It is rebuilt by a Proformance, but never converted the pump. I also have a friend that has the orig in his 95 which was early production run and it is non PWM.
