    Yeah it should you need someone in the know because there is some extra wiring involved courtesy of the TCU but wholesale automatics might be able to help you with what you need .
    Don't forget a torque lock up kit either diy or buy one from wholesale automatics gives you an amazing drive and so much better for towing .
