4L60E TRANSMISSION INSTALL || EASY

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

“Transmission to engine bolts: 35 ft/lb”
Once you have the transmission installed onto the engine you must verify that the torque converter
remained fully seated into the front pump during the transmission installation. You should observe 1/8”
(.125”) to 3/16” (.187”) of air gap between the torque converter mounting pads and flexplate before
sliding the converter forward to attach it to the flexplate. If you have 1/8” - 3/16” air gap then you may
proceed with sliding the torque converter forward and attaching it to the flexplate. If you have less than
1/8” air gap then you may not have the torque converter fully seated into the front pump. This will
require disassembly and verification of proper torque converter installation. If you have more than 3/16”
air gap then you may install high quality flat washers between the mounting pads and flexplate to shim
the converter to the correct air gap dimension of 1/8” - 3/16”. NEVER shim the converter to eliminate all
air gap. Running the torque converter in a fully shimmed condition WILL result in damage to the front
pump gear set, front pump stator body, torque converter pump hub, and may even cause damage to the
internal torque converter components as well as the crankshaft thrust bearing.

    Great, informative video. I like your attention to safety and how you try to give as much info as possible. A couple things I found out the hard way: 1. If the old trans went out, you need to flush the oil cooler with brake cleaner and compressed air or it can fill your newly rebuilt transmission with junk. 2. Lube the back of the crank with grease before you stick the torque converter in there. This allows the converter to move forward and back as the flexplate flexes. 3. Put the exhaust above the crossmember but don’t attach it until you put the inside bolt on the driver’s side in the crossmember or the bolt will have to go in backwards from the rest. 4. If you installed a new converter too, when you bolt it to the flexplate, make sure there is less than 3/16” gap between them. If not, you will need washers to close the gap. 5. Depending on the year, the starter wires are too short to install until the starter is mounted. Your video on removing the hot glue connectors on the neutral safety switch saved me a huge headache! Keep up the great work!

    Just did a full rebuild on my 01 jimmy. It's a lot more in depth for a 1st timer but I truly enjoyed rebuilding the tranny, adding sonnax shift kit, parts of transgo shift kit, corvette servo and a sonnax sun shell which was my problem in the first case. Totally stripped out 😆. But I would like to thank you two on a job well done. Especially with the feeler gauges, tolerances, and the confidence to do this job. I would've been up shit creek if not for you 2. I had a dam check ball fall into the side of the transmission 😆 and I double checked to make sure the c clips on the pump valve were fully seated then it got away from me and into the transmission again 🤦 but shit, I didn't even mind digging it out lol. Now I know I can rebuild one of these things and next would be engine dismantling but that's for another time. Much respect from Saskatchewan Canada 🇨🇦

Just gonna have to shovel snow when I go to take it in and out lol. I’m just making sure I get a kit that has the pistons in it, cause I figure if it’s not that check ball in the housing it’s gotta be the pistons that caused the 3/4 to go bad. Originally I hoped it was just a solenoid so I dropped the pan twice trying to fix it but now when I drive it I can tell it hits 3rd but there’s just a lot of rpm before you get any sort of pull feel out of the pedal then it just drops back into 2 when it gets around 4k

    Sounds like you have it figured out. Sounds like the frictions and steels are toast. Definitely replace the pistons and verify the check ball doesn't leak. Also look into reaming out and replacing the AFL valve in the valve body. You should also replace the TCC valve, these wear out and 3-4 apply fluid pressure can be reduced increasing slippage and burnout of clutches. Sonnax and transgo make kits for these repairs.

    I see your from the busted knuckle garage. Took me a while too to stop using my ratchet handle like that. Think it was slipping off a nut and punching a sharp edge crossmember that finally did it.

    Look inside and make sure the pins on the transmission side are not bent. Also, spray some electrical contact cleaner inside the plug.

    What is the process if your torque converter is bound up. My transmission isn’t wanting to sit flush against my engine and I think that’s the issue maybe

    It sounds like your torque converter is not seated all the way. Move the transmission back and try to get the torque converter to seat further. Rotate and push until it clicks down further
