yeah, the picture looked like a cross between a th400 and a 700R4

they should have somthing that would replace the 4l60e. the 4l60 should be a elec version of the 700r4. it would be cool, then my 1500 could do some towing.

just put a 4L80 or 4L80E which ever you need you won't break an 80 towing your 1500 can't pull more than the 80 will handle.

Ferm and I, well our diesels have the 4L80 in them, that's a strong trans, they were rated at able to handle 1000 hp and 1200 ft tq.

Mine HAd one, now it's backed by a much larger soldier.:sly:

yeah thats what it looks like i need to get, is there anyway to build a 4l60e to handle what a 80 can?

nope that 80 is a larger case and all totally different pan and carrier set up

look at the junk yards for a 2500 Suburban with a 454 BBC or 6.5TD also a 2500 to 3500 GM truck with either the 454 or the 6.5TD has them in them

A max build on a 4L60E can take just about the same as a stock 4L80E. A shift kit in the 80 though and you are WAY ahead of what a 60 can even think about. The 60E can be a decent tranny for a small block, but requires some work to get it there. A TRANSGO HD-2 shift kit, HUGE tranny cooler, ALTO clutches except for the 3-4 pack(the Z-pack is the way to go there), heavy sprag and one way clutch stator, 10 or 13 vane pump, corvette servo or SONNAX billet servo's(even better, but shift HARD!), SONNAX 1-2 shift valve, deep tranny pan, and a SUNCOAST billet converter will get you a stout 4L60E. You'll be looking at around $1300-1500 worth the parts alone though. Depending upon the year of your truck, an 80 will most likely be easier to swap and be less money.

yeah thats what its looking like, im findind 80's for about 600-700 on the net from the parts finder site i got my 60 from. i sure i can unload one of te 60's at least half the cost of the 80.

What exactly is the truck your having problems with?
