If you have transmission shift improvements done through your tune that will need to be removed from the tune. Other than that no other supporting mods are necessary for a VB shift kit.

Disconnect the battery during install to clear the ECU's adaptive learning and install a new tranny filter. Not necessary but you can also install an aftermarket tranny pan.

cool so its basically just hard wear... Truck has older "chip" so I'm not too sure if it actually has trans upgrades... i don't think it does, all L's were a bit upgraded from svt i believe. But I'm not sure how to tell.

thanks for the info.
