He's the only guy I know of that makes a direct replacement for this setup. Never heard of a failure, might want to get in touch with him for more info.

i pm'd him over there. he confirmed its a re-splined unit. and he said he has still never seen a failure.

now about this t-case adapter. will any 4l80e 4wd adapter work or does it have to be equipped with a certain t-case.

I didnt see anyone mention that the 4l80 has better planetaries than the 4l60 Ive seen them side by side in person and its quite a difference.
