Ahh... yet another 4L60E rebuild
... but, hopefully, Red Eagle clutches will help prevent the ever-so-popular 3-4 clutch burn-up. I guess we'll see. I know, I know... why didn't I do that in the first place. Bought new blues already, and was anxious to ride. Only got me nearly 2000 miles before roastin' 'em at the track this past weekend. Oh well, ya live & ya learn.
Waiting on clutches, and will need to order the 46-Mod today or tomorrow. Vince, how fast can you ship that? I know the price of the kit. What's the total cost of shipment to 70816, with arrival by Wednesday, August 8th? Do ya accept PayPal?
For the time being... I found a package on my back porch today!
I'm keepin' the stock pan for future uninstalls/installs of this trans. That's just too damn pretty to mess up with scratches. I'll take a side-by-side comparison pick that'll show the differences from stock when I have the trans down. Waiting on trans jack to come home... MATT, where ya at, son?!?!?!

Broke a 2000 mile old trans mount.
This rebuild won't be as in-depth as the previous on I did earlier this year. I may show where I drill a hole in the input drum to help the clutches get a good flush of fluid.
*edit*
In my original post, I asked about Paypal transactions with FLT... I just registered an account, and whaddayaknow... PAYPAL is primary source for online payment. I'm a doofus! Vince, I'll be ordering the 46-Mod next week. I won't be working on the trans for another week.

Those aren't the clutch's I would pick for it, but they may work for your truck. If you're burning up the 3-4's at your power level, I would have the pressure checked once you get it up and going again. Sounds like a programming issue or pressure in the trans issue. What other trans mods do you have done to it?

Other mods include kevlar 2-4 band, HD2, and Sonnax 2nd & 4th servos.
I'm waiting on my auto deposit to hit the stash account to order the 46-mod. Then, I'll log into FLT's website, and hit the checkout button.

Wife's at work, I'm home with the boys, I have them taking naps, and got some time to myself...
Clearly a clearance problem. I am almost certain I followed ATSGs max gap spec of .085"! You won't believe what the gap actually was. I guess I should've gone tighter. Interesting.
