    Oh brother, shop rates.

    Meh, I can't perform my own smog checks or I wouldn't have been there. The leak was a slow weep from a loose hose clamp.

    Oh brother, shop rates.

    I'm just thankful I grew up with a redneck mcguyver brother from another mother. Learned how to fix a lot of shit after we broke em

    Dunno if this is the right place but dayum... went to smog the tahoe today and technician found a coolant leak. Kudos to him and hooking me up with a gal of coolant but, again, datum. I think i did this before and it was like a fifteen dollar part.

    Fresh 4l60e install

    Right about 200k. I'm second owner but the internals looked original (especially those poor 3-4 pack frictions). Was definitely a fun learning experience.

    Fresh 4l60e install

    Parts were i think just around 1000 but I had some broken bits to contend with. Tools, kinda depends on what you have already. I suppose. Also, make fiends with the local transmission shop guys. Can be a real life saver

    Fresh 4l60e install

    Running smooth like butter. Ironically though, before work, I noticed leaking at and found a freshly worn pinhole leak on one of the tranny cooler lines. I had already cut out the old hose fittings though so wasn't too bad. Already had the flare tool out lmao

    Fresh 4l60e install

    Well, tonight was the culmination of all my efforts with the tahoe and her fresh rebuilt 4l60e. To summarize, two days before new year's, we were getting on the free way when the ol girl decided she wasn't gonna shift past second. 45 minute drive turned 3 hrs later, we were home, and...

    Inline trans filter

    @rdezs Thanks for the parts list. I've added them to my Amazon list and when funds are available, the setup is great and I fully intend to go that route. Sorry for the late reply. Last couple days have been focusing on install. :)

    Inline trans filter

    Getting ready to install rebuilt unit. Funds restrictions are keeping me from grabbing a new radiator at the moment. So, I was considering flushing the lines and installing an inline filter coming out for now. Later on I will get a new one and possibly add an external cooler. 3-4 pack looked...
