...covered a 30-second crash course on how a TH350 works. I know this isn't a truck show, but does anyone watch this?

This is my motto for 4L60Es. As for the TH350 rebuild, ya gotta believe there was a lbit cut out to fit into a 26 minute show.

I've never done it, so IDK. It was just something I've always heard you should do. Sounded good to me since they are designed to run "wet".

Transmissions scare me I'm alway AMAZED when I do a shift kit or something and it works when I'm done

Send one of those that you rebuild, and I'll show you how to break it!
