I never see anyone on here posting about shift kits. I only see people posting some about servos. I called a transmission shop today which told me he would be backed up for about a month or two due to tax time people are fixing their broken down cars.. Well it was going to be about 500 which will go down to 400 if I wait to get a billet servos installed including the 4th along with a 90 dollar transgo shiftkit. My main question is: Is this worth it? Pros and Cons????
Edit: 4l60e btw!
Might as well throw u a stall in while u got it out
Get the transgo-HD-2 shift kit, billet servos and stall converter and a retune if u dont already have a Nelson tune.
Sonnax billets are too much for a stock trans.Quote:

A shift kit is not to terribly difficult to install, although I have never done one on a 60E so I don't know if they are very different from the 200-R4 and TH350 that I have done. The servo however is fairly simple, just pop out the snap ring, pull everything out, then reinstall the new parts (make sure all your seals and o rings are facing the right way) and slide it back together, trans can even stay in the truck the entire time.
I've done a few shift kits in th350, completely rebuilt one last weekm and a 60e valvebody scares me.
when you guys diy did the kit come with instructions or did ya get a book or sumthing? jw
I agree billets to much, for a stock stall. but if you have a 3000 + convertor would probably be ok, stalls cushion shifts alot. Just my opinion.Quote:
