My trans started slipping on the 1-2 shift so i found a complete 4.8 And 4l60e with harness and ecu for 250 bucks. I have started putting in the transgo hd2 shift kit in, but I broke one of the shift solenoids. All I have left is to drill the separator plate and put back together. I also have a vette servo. I put 1 washer in the second accumulator. But I'm thinking I should get the alluminum piston before putting it bavk together.

Also it came with a clutch spring kit, is it possible for a diyer to install that?
Any cheap easy parts to change while I'm in there?

Yes it is! Insides of 60es are easy to work with

I would swap in a decent 3-4 clutch pack as well as a new band




I'd grab a book too

Put some new Borg warner hi energy clutches in, new bands and a beast sunshell if you can. These items coupled with the shift kit you have will work pretty well together. Also dont forget new seals.

Well I'm on a tight budget, so I may can only get 1 or 2 small upgrades

You have an ECSB 4x4, right? Plus you have a heavy 20" wheel/tire combo? You're wasting your time, energy, and cash on the 60E. Especially if you're not going "all-out" with the build. Might as well just start lighting $100 bills on fire.

Sorry if that seems harsh. I've been jilted by the 60E, she forked me over & took all my money, now she's gonna do it to you. Just trying to save you some heartache & cash.

Its a 2wd ecsb id swap in a 80e if I had the money and time but this is my dd and I already had the trans and hd2.

This is the most poetic way I've ever seen someone say "Get a 80e" I've ever seen.

Sell the nitrous kit, do the 80E swap. Then save up & buy another nitrous kit. I guarantee you'll be money ahead in the long run.

Well the 80e isnt an option at the moment, allthough i want to go that route its not possible.

Im picking up an alluminum accumulator piston this week and i need to know what else i should get that i can do myself and not break the bank.
