stolen 5.0 Posted July 9, 2002 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 never again do i want to pull out the steering column out of a 5.0 again to do a damn t-5 swap. 7 hours it took. puttin the tranny in tomm. it's an auto yet, the clutch must be pushed in to start it. instead of pushin down the brake pedal to get the brake lights to come on, you have to pull the pedal up a little bit. lol.... kinda fucked up. steering colums sags a little even though tightly in place. and the BBK quadrant assembly blows ass!!!!! had to use stock. zip ties came in handy. we also had many small bolts and screws left. graemlins/gives.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stolen 5.0 Posted July 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2002 finally got the T-5 in my buddy's car tonight. everything runs smoothly except we have to push start it. i think it's something to do with the harness's on the tranny. none of them would plug into the stock AOD harness's. anyone have any idea's?

grease monkey Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 yes, it's the neutral safety switch, just hot wire the starter solinoid and install a starter button. it's really easy, we had to do this when we installed a c-6 in my friends 88lx 5.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boost-n-Juice Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 I had the same problem...it took me 5 min's to fix it. You don't need no stinkin starter button You need to make a jumper wire about 3 inches long with males spade connectors on each end. Plug the jumper into harness. It's trial and error since there are 4 connectors, unless you have access to a wiring diagram. It's the neutral safety switch you're looking for. Let me know if you need help.

stolen 5.0 Posted July 15, 2002 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2002 the harness's on the t-5 were different than the Aod, so we cut the harness's off and spliced them together. start's good now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just jump the NSS on the tranny, solder the 2 wires together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
