Yes, a new wiring harness is needed. And it should bolt right up...but there is other stuff to worry about--column shifter and cable, tranny cooler lines, drive shaft, PCM, etc...
-- oh for a second I thought you were putting a lt into a 2006, i was like "say what?" but din i was like "oh" :lol:Quote:

you are talking about putting a 5speed from a 98 into a 96 truck that is auto right? im pretty sure itll be smooth.
I did it in a 96 for my dad in a farm truck and put a NV4500 in. I just left the selector module for the auto trans plugged into the harness and made it think it was in park all the time and spliced in the VSS. I just took the shift lever off the steering column.
Ghetto way to do it, but it worked and it was a farm truck so we didn't care.
To do it correctly you would really need a donor truck.
