Complete Step By Step Instructional on rebuilding your 4L60E Transmission

This video gave me the confidence to take my transmission to someone to rebuild it.

This video series walked my son and I through our first 4L60E rebuild. Excellent step by step, our thanks!

I’m just over 3k miles since my rebuild and all seems good! Thanks again for the great video series. One thing I learned was I didn’t save myself anything by going with a cheaper rebuild kit. I ended up needing to order a lot of one off items and probably spent more than if I just bought the rebuild kit you suggested…and I spent more time waiting for every shipment. Thanks again!👍

Hands down one of the greatest videos on the YT. I have watched it probably 25 times and built 2 transmissions along with it. I can’t thank you nearly enough for doing these vids. A real game changer that really saved my bacon in remote Alaska. The current tranny is my daily driver I’m about to put the pump bolts in, and the first one was my project truck I’ll be covering on another channel I’m starting out of inspiration from you and others covering my truck projects from engine builds to body fab. Kudos and thanks again!

I just want to say thank you for your 4l60e series of videos, they saved me a ton of money and frustration when I needed to rebuild mine after the forward sprag went out. Keep being awesome guys!

[indiankite]

Your attitude is very welcome and appreciated. Other youtuvers are more into preaching rather than showing.

I loved watching this video. You did a wonderful job of describing everything to look for during assembly. Thank you so much for making this video.

I stripped my sunshell during a hard acceleration. This video walked me through everything to get my transmission rebuilt. I decided to upgrade some of the components while I was at it. I installed a monster sun shell, sonax pinless accumulator pistons, zpack clutches, transgo shift kit, Corvett servo and high stall converter. I have it installed and is working great. Feels better then before. If driving casually it has very soft shifts that you can't feel but if you get on the gas the shifts get much firmer and faster. The only issue I have is my shifter display is acting a little weird and the column feels kinda sloppy in park. I'm sure a simple adjustment of the shifter cable or neutral safety switch will correct it. Feeling pretty happy right now.
Thank you guys for making such a thorough video.

I had no idea what I was doing! I watched your videos and got a rebuild manual. I built my first one and it has been shifting/working really well. Learned alo I have since built 4 other 4l60e transmissions for a few of my family members!

[robertpeters]

I like the fact that you are using a clean surface during assembly. Also, thanks for the clear narrative without hoped intonation or vendor badgering.

[maybelletugade]

the best rebuild everything in the kit were been used and cleaned. no shortcuts....

You guys are awesome. Thank you for making the 4L60E videos. Very well done, both in detail and presentation. I have successfully rebuilt my transmission following along to these videos. For anyone out there debating if they should take on a 4l60e rebuild…if you have the time and patience, DO IT…..just don’t forget. BAG AND The amount of parts is overwhelming at first, but they all fall into place easier than it seems.

Great, the best I’ve seen so far, took their time where you didn’t have to go back and forth which I liked. Thank you guys, never would have made it without your video!

thank you for making such a good video. I'm 19 years old and I own a 2001 chevy Silverado and my transmission went out on me when I was coming home one day and I didn't know what to do so I started looking on how to rebuild a 4L60E transmission and I came across your video at first I was hesitant about rebuilding a transmission but by watching your video you gave me the confidence to rebuild my transmission I had never seen the inside of a transmission before so I ordered a stage 2 master rebuild kit I also ordered the reamer and the piston cause they needed to be replaced and I followed your video step by step and got everything installed into my transmission and got it all put together and installed today and it runs like a dream now thank you very much

I followed all the steps and everything was great but I had no reverse when I put it back. I had to pull the trans again and redo the pump stator rings, this is where the reverse magic happens apparently, I replaced the old rings and didn't have the proper tool to resize them once I got them on and tried to do it makeshift with hose clamps and a plastic sleeve wrapped around them to go in between, I compressed them too much and they were not making a good enough seal on the shaft. I pulled the pump and used the $40 Ring Buddy tool to resize them properly. I learned that if the pump goes in too easy on reassembly, something is wrong, if it goes in too hard, something is wrong and you will tear or nick the seal if you force it. Pay attention on this part guys. Also the input drum seals were the hardest part of the job really, a PITA to get that piston back in with both seals intact. I used some cable ties to shrink down the seal on the outside one then put it in the freezer for 20 minutes so it would hold that shape until it warmed up. I used a water bottle top cut down to size to put over the middle shaft for the inside one. The piston slipped right in. I tore a seal on the first attempt using the feeler gauge method so be careful either way. Overall great video.

I think this is well a explained tutorial. If you have the slightest bit of mechanical knowledge I believe this video is a huge help. Especially for the guys that don't have PROPER TOOLS. YOU KNOW THE TYPE..THE ONES LIKE YOU. THE ONES THAT DONT WANT TO GO SPEND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON SPECIALTY TOOLS ONLY TO NEVER USE THEM AGAIN. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO. Im doing my transmission this weekend..fingers crossed and praying it goes well ..

[robertvicente]

This video gave me the confidence to take my transmission apart and rebuild it myself. Thanks alot guys🙌👏💯💪💯💯👏👏🙌🙏

[jeffparker]

I've been looking for this exact video for a while.. most guys go too quick or they get off in the weeds about mods and different kit options with every single part they install. I just needed a bone stock rebuild video and this is perfect. I appreciate you guys posting this because I'm about to build 3 of these and make some $$$! Thanks again!

[davidmiller]

Probably one of the most informative videos I've watched. Make sure to fill the torque converter before installing it.

Totally Amazing, Patience (that I need before I reconnect just the exterior wiring ) and Step-By Step!!! WOW!!! I have more YT videos than I can shake a stick at and they are all helping a former Computer Programmer enjoy getting an S10 fixed and running. HUGE THANKS to all of you!!!
