Dtrannyman is correct you not only need to change flange yokes drive shafts but you also need to change or reflash ECM and the wire harness connectors are wired differently better to have 4l60e rebuild for severe service / towing and add an external grant and a transfer case coolers also an engine oil cooler is never a bad idea just make sure all are properly installed my 97 express 1500 van is set up like that and now has over 520000 mi on it 400000 on trans since last rebuild I also recommend mobile 1 synthetic fluid and Lucas additive

SOURCE: conversion to a 4l80e to a 4l60e

This isn't as easy as you may think. The output shaft is different between the two so the transfer case (4wd) or driveshaft (2wd) wont' fit together. The computer control is different in each application. I wouldn't think that the crossmember set up is the same either, of course, I've only seen the 4L80 in 3/4 and heavier trucks.

You can build a 4L60 E so it is pretty tough. Change the gear sets to 5 pinion, heavy duty shell, wider band, aftermarket clutch packs,etc. This is what I recommend to my customers

There are a lot of newer model engines and tranny combos that will fit like the 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 and 6.2 liter engines with the 4L60E,4L70E and 4L80E transmission packages just be aware that the larger the engine the more the cost

Here is what I have listed, more than likely you have the 4L60E which is 5qts.
CAPACITIES
Engine, with filter..........6.0 quarts[1]
Cooling System, Initial Fill..........17.0 quarts
AMSOIL Antifreeze and Engine Coolant
Cooling System, W/ Rear Heat Initial Fill..........19.0 quarts
AMSOIL Antifreeze and Engine Coolant
Automatic Transmission, 4L80E Initial Fill..........7.7 quarts[2]
Automatic Transmission, 4L85E Initial Fill..........7.7 quarts[2]
Automatic Transmission, 4L60E Initial Fill..........5.0 quarts[2]
Automatic Transmission, Total Fill
4 speed 4L60E..........11.0 quarts
4 speed 4L80E..........14.0 quarts

Dexron VI is the way to go. As for a filter the choice is yours..Hope this helps Tim

I am wondering which transmissions will fit a 1997 GMC 2500. The truck currently has a 4l80E trans that is bad. Will a 700R4 fit?

Unless you want to do a lot of work i would find another 4l80E or rebuild yours. 700r4 is not electronic shift and you have no connection for the shift cable. And if you get a electronic 700r4 (4L60E) The plugs are completely different and you would need to change the whole engine harness and ecm.
