Tranny Kit came today.......let the rebuild begin..........oh and the write up!
So I finally ordered my tranny rebuild kit along with a new sun shell (just in case) It is a master kit with clutches and steels and pistons. Hopefully I will get to the rebuild in the next couple weeks.

Mr_Shamrock Nah trannys arent as hard as you might think but they do take a little bit of patience..............the hardest part is pulling it and putting it back in
89ChevySilverado are you doing it on your truck??? If so this will be right up your alley.

Yes this will be on my truck. I currently have the original 350 v8, automatic tranny w/o overdrive.. my plans are to rebuild a vortec v8 and a automatic tranny with overdrive then, swap em out.
Maybe when i do the Vortec rebuild ill include a write-up.

If you can do a manual you can do an automatic, they just look intimidating, the 4L60E comes apart in 6 or less main pieces then those pieces come apart. The majority of an auto is clutch packs. The blow ups of autos dont do them justice at all, generally when you do a rebuild half of that stuff never gets touched cause it doesnt need to come down that far. I have a habit of pulling the pump apart though. this one should be interesting because it is the vane style pump instead of the gear style that the older ones used. I have been studying valve body diagrams, I guess in 2000 they changed the valve body design slightly to allow more fluid flow in the TCC circut. so I am playing with the idea of changing the valve body too.
