Default 8psi+snappy 1-2 = broke output shaft

I'll admit it lasted longer than I thought with how I drive
Broke the tail housing also. Gonna get it put back together with hardened parts and 5gear planetaries. Might last......maybe

Wonder if its possible to get a 6L90 in it No problem in fitment I am sure, just the computer comm would be the big question....

You broke a level 5 FLT? Did you have the 300mm hardened output shaft?

The 6L90 is possible. It would be quite the expense though and alot of work. You're probably better off with a built 4L70E. People have been putting 600-700RWHP to them in the last couple of years without hardly any failures.

What makes 4L70E's stronger than 60/65E's?
