Default TR-3650 to TR-6060 question

I'm considering swapping to a tr-6060 what are the differences beside the clutch I should be aware of before doing this swap? I see a hose on top of the 6060 what is it for?

There are a few threads that detail everything you need for the swap and at least one online retailer also does it. Use the search and do TR6060 swap or something like that.

Not everything is in those kits though. You will need a new TCU.

I advise you to check out the T56 magnum before making a final decision.

As you stated, the clutch plate needs changed because of different input shaft splines.
The hose on top of the 6060 is typically for the breather.
The driveshaft is a different length.
The 6060 has a reverse lockout solenoid which some have not even bothered to wire up. I wired mine into my brakelight circuit.

Looking into the T56 Magnum is a good point. I would have used it myself, but it was not available when I needed it.

Thanks guys for the information! And I was looking the t-56 but I have found a tr6060 for $1600 which was why I was considering it.

I think American Powertrain is the vendor - I know they sponsor here or another board for sure. They are just up the road from me.
