I got a screaming deal on a 4l65e and a np149 from an 02 escalade. I currently have a 04 Denali that will need the trans/t case(4481) rebuilt soon. I understand the 4481 is basically an open diff and the brakes help control wheel spin. Can I put the fully mechanical np149 in there and make it worth it? Or am I better off just rebuidling the 4481. Anybody done this,advantages..? I know the Silverado ss and sierra denalis all came with the np149 but I'm just trying to figure out which case is better.. thanks

It's easier to rebuild what you have. Otherwise you'll need tuning to shut off stability Trac and check engine lights.

Sell me the nvg149.
