Before assuming compatibility, you must check the following:
* Engine compatibility: Ensure the transmission's bellhousing matches the engine in the 2001 Tahoe. Different engines may have different bolt patterns.
* Transmission mount locations: Compare the mounting points on the Blazer transmission to the mounting points on the Tahoe's frame. They need to align perfectly.
* Output shaft length: The length of the driveshaft must be compatible with the transmission. A slightly different length could lead to driveshaft vibrations or issues.
* Wiring harness: The transmission control module (TCM) wiring harness may need adjustments or modifications to work correctly with the Tahoe's system.
In short, while they *might* be compatible, it's risky to assume so. A thorough comparison of the transmissions and their respective mounting points is crucial. It's best to find a transmission specifically from a 2001 Tahoe, or consult a transmission specialist to verify compatibility before attempting the swap.
