So I installed my servo no problems. But when I drove it, it didn't shift into 4. Help please!

How many miles on the hoe? There are sometimes issues with installing the servos on high mile trannys. The reason is you are only installing a single high performance part in a stock tranny. The pressures change, the dynamic change etc...so you risk breaking a high wear piece like a clutch pack, valve solenoid..Any codes?

Also, the 3/4 clutch pack is really a weak point on this 4l60e, and as you can imagine it's used much more than 1/2.

That's not considered danger zone from everything I've read, it's generally over 100k but you are damn close.

Does it catch at all into 4?

cool, I was gunna say reinstall it from start to finish as well. I have no practical experience putting them in so I haven't a clue what steps are done to be truthful but it would seem reasonable that you might mess up the install on the first try. I know I would... :)

I guess I need to do some research, if it goes into 3 I would think there isn't a problem with the 3/4 clutch pack. I'll check up on it while you reinstall your kit, definitely peaked my interest.
