Default Tranny swap?

I have a 6.5 with a 4l80e and the tail housing is cracked my dad has a Muncie 4 speed out of an older Chevy 2500 gas will my bell housing work? What all will have to be changed? I know about the linkage but I need to know what flywheel I'll need or clutch ? Will my transfer case bolt up to this?

Well on a 4l80e or I think correct term is 4l85e since its 4x4 the housing is made together so unlike a regular 4l80e where 6 bolts takes it off you would have to entirely gut the tranny

Obviously I will have to post a picture before your dumb *** will beilieve me, I think I know I do not see any bolts I'm not a ******* idiot. Besides the matter if the tranny was perfectly good, my post was asking about what I would need to do the swap so if you don't know then shut the **** up and don't post worthless info on a forum . You think you know what your talking about but in reality you don't have a clue. Please do not post again unless your going to answer the question I asked and not try and tell me irrelevant information

haha, The master tech at a trans shop doesnt know what he is talking about

good luck with your 4l85e

edit to a previous post i put "no such thing as 4l85e" i meant "no such thing as 4l85e in these trucks" just incase there is any confusion.

Just because your titled as somthing doesn't mean you know what your talking about hell in not a vetanarian but I know a horses *** when I see one! And your missing the whole point I wish I had crayons IT DOESNT MATTER If it's a 2 speed power glide or a 10 speed schen tranny off a bike it's not part of the original question I asked, it's about the Muncie 4 speed? Are you going to tell me there's not one of those either? It wouldn't suprise me I mean hell im 17 not much of a diesel fan and have learned by working on my stuff and obviously I could be head honcho of the "tranny shop" you work at if that's the case

Someday you will learn to be respectful of those who have come before you and be appreciative when they try to help you be successful on your path. Does not appear to be today.
