Thanks guy's I did some checking and it has the 4L85E I believe is what they said. Any one have any experence with this tranny behind a diesel? Or experience with the toned down version of the deramax?

I have a 2006 1 ton GMC Savanna Van with a 6.0 L and a 4L80-E . It is excellent for towing. I have a Reese hitch with the lift bars. A 4L85-E has some upgrades in it, but the basic transmission is based on the tried and true THM 400 .
