so about 9000 miles ago my last 4L65E died. left me on the side of the highway with no gears. no reverse, nothing. today it did the same thing. 9000 miles on it and dies. no forward gears no reverse. i was at 60mph and she came out of OD and then went neutral. no a sound or grinding or anything. fluid is clear and full. no leaks. nothing i can see externally. any thoughts? its like its not building line pressure. possible accumulator issue?

 

What happened to it last time?

 

accumulator failed. they installed a shift kit with a plastic accumulator and it broke apart from the line pressure. he told me this build would have the vette style accumulator. im starting to doubt that was the case.

 

4l80e time!!!

 

no money to fix the pos i have now. i need it to be the accumulator. i have a upcoming cross country move i just cant afford a swap and new stall right now.

 

Did you contact your builder?

 

yeah he said it was out of warranty. it came with a 1 year unlimited mile warranty.

 

who makes a drop in 4L80E kit for my truck? taxes are coming soon

 

All you need to drop it in is a custom crossmember (dirttrackracer here sells them) and appropriate slip yoke to mate up to the stock driveshaft. Simple re-pinning of the main trans connector and a plug and wire with PCM pins for the front speed sensor.

 

jakes performance build good transmissions?
