Truck is finally on track to being back on the road

There is no such thing as a shift kit for that model of transmission.

By the way, Shift Kit is a trademark of Transgo and cannot be used with any other brand of transmission overhaul kit. Unless the computer program was updated with a TECH II - you just wasted your time.

since when is there no shift kit for a 4l60e? im pretty sure i installed it myself and order if right from Transgo...Justin at Blackbear tuned the trans for it, which is far beyond a Tech II

Truck is going in on Monday most likely..1600 installed..hes converting it to a 4l65e with a 5 pinion planetary, beast sunshell, zpack 3/4 clutch pack, new shift kit and servo (including the extra springs that are only installed if you rip the trans apart), upgraded pump, fixing my trans cooler lines since they are kinked, replacing front output seal on tcase...

ordering my Yank converter tomorrow..TT3000..

hopefully the truck is finished by the end of next week, but theres no hurry since ill be back at home next weekend anyway..cant wait to see how it drives with the converter

Sweet! I need one too, you talked to a guy at Yank?

yup..the special is $550 shipped for a TT3000..saves about 90 bucks he said

ordered the TT3000 today...should be about 2 weeks until i get the truck back..converter takes about 10 days they said with building and shipping..and i have to wait on a retune from justin...

Dropped the truck off 20 min ago..

Going to be doing front and rear 5 pinion planetarys, shift kit, servo, Beast sunshell, zpack 3/4 clutch pack, pump upgrade and a few other little things..along with fixing a leaking tcase and kinked trans cooler lines..should be done by the end of next week..

a tune would probably be the best thing you could do for that trans at this point. Justin told me that without a tune I shouldnt drive it very hard, because it will shift harder then what its ment to do, and can end up messing up the new trans real quick...I would email him and set up a tune..it would make it shift better and preserve it longer, along with adding some more power and driveability to the truck
