Default 4l60e (A4) conversion

What parts would be needed to do an A4 conversion? The car is a 2006 What year torque tube? What year transmission, what year rear would we need? I have a stand alone transmission controller picked out. Thanks

Why do you want to convert to the A4 from an A6 may I ask?

PM sent. Lets keep this thread focused on the topic of what parts instead of why. I will explain that later after the conversion. I just need fast answers on the parts so I can get it started. Thanks

The A4 was only made for the 2005 model year. At the very least you would need the trans, rear end, shift assembly and cables, TCM and associated wiring harness. Then you would also have to check the trans mounts, VCM & etc.

My suggestion would be to ask your local Chevy guy for a list of parts for the A6 vs the A4 good luck

Wasn't the A4 the same trans (or close) to the A4's in the C5's?
