have you checked the fuses and fluid level? 65e would be what I'd try to get if you replace it, unless you're planning on some severe duty usage in the future.

I know this first-hand. :laugh: True, you'd be better off with a stronger trans. If you can't find a salvaged trans (4L65e or 80e), then clutch replacement is not as bad to get you by until you get what you're looking to upgrade to. You'd just have to train your right foot not to dog the truck until you get the upgrade.Quote:

i took the tranny out do you guys no how much it is to get it rebuilt? any price ranges?
I've been quoted $700-$750 for a factory stock rebuild, carry-out only.
That's cheap. Around here, expect $1000 - $1200.
I thought so, also. It was at a Cottmans. They're a national chain.
yea iam just gonna buy a junkyard one i can get for 500$ with low miles
what should i buy to make it last and iam gonna buy a stall how high should i go with the minmal mods i have
Buy a transmission cooler. Get as large of a cooler as you can fit in the truck.
ok well i have the trans apart the first band did a number on the shell idk if i can machine it or what but the first clucth pack is smoked bad the second isnt so bad i will post some picks soon but iam wondering what caused my truck to stop shifting out of first?
Probably is related to the band being smoked. Replace the band and all the clutches and steels. Don't do it half-assed. Don't machine the drum. You can get a new or remanned reverse drum for not too much money. Without the band you have no 1-2 shift.
thanks that sounds about right :bash:
will the older 4l60e one piece work in my truck?
