IIRC from what I have read, BC had to failures with that unit previous to the sell of it. So that being said it was not the origainal unit that he had purchased from PB. Meaning it had been repaired. Sounds like you had and output shaft failure. Probably a big old hole in the back of that trans if I had to guess. Hopefully Franky takes good care of you on the repair! Best of luck. SD

here is the original thread when i sold it to the previous owner of Daryn's truck.

the issue you are thinking about was way before this time back in 07 when i first got the trans, which had been resolved by the builder.

Your right. I had you confused with another guy in this thread. https://ls1tech.com/forums/automatic...-tranny-4.html

Good to see that Frank did help you get your situation straightened out. SD

BlueCajun. How is that 4l60e holding up in a 11 second truck? Who built it? Everyone says you need a 4l80e to run those times.
