I followed a thread over on GMFullSize.com. There is a couple of links, follow the 2nd one for more details.

It took me about an hour or so to do it, including time to grab the laptop to verify how the servo went back together.

Do it Do it!!!!

One bit of advice... get the new o-rings. I didn't, and haven't had any problems yet (knocking on wood).

I bought mine on e-bay for 19 bucks, and it came with all the new o-rings. havent put mine in yet waiting for the weather to break, and do some logging for monte so we can get it dialed in. the the servo is going to go in, and then its off to the stealership to have the line pressure tweaked.

Why have them done at a dealer. You have a Predator, adjust them yourself, or have your custom tuner adjust them.

Didn't know the 05's had a TCM... thought they were just a PCM like the 04 silverado...

Neon, if you are refering to Nightstalker, he has a 2008 Z. He is the one saying he is going to the "Stealership" to get the pressure adjusted.

Yet his signature says he has TCM support.

Don't mind me, I'm in the middle of eating lunch at Firehouse Subs and not thinking clear. Mmmmmm. Firehouse hero - fully involved!

I pull a trailer on occasion, but it is nowhere near the size of yous. (That didn't sound right). I also haven't pulled my trailer since I put the new servo in.

My trailer is only 2200lbs loaded.

I know I am going to have to get Yodahan or Lew to adjust my T/H shift settings to soften it up a little. It hits HARD on the 1-2 upshift in T/H. However, it did this also in regular mode at PT.

Whats up Canuck, I got the servo installed last week and since then Ive pulled that pontoon I was talking about 4 times now. No problems, knock on wood, and it tows great. Nice firm shifts, but not too firm, and helps hold the gears alittle longer. Similar to the tow/hull mode with a bit more umff...
NO TCM SUPPORT!!!
