Well after spending a lot of time removing the corrosion on the cover and using a lot of Vaseline to lube the servo its in and running perfect.Nice shifts,1-2,2-3 and downshifts perfect It's a little tricky getting the servo installed piece by piece,but use some ingenuity ,vice grips and a lot of patience . The snap ring went in fairly easy as long as you have the cover pushed in being held in place so you have both hands free.

Found these marks on the piston,definitely not normal wear Only 80,000 on the trany

2003 Silverado 4x4 4.3 V6 After hours and hours of research this job DID NOT go as easy as I was led to believe First off the cover snap ring was fused by rust to the case.By the time I got it off the snap ring looked like wet spaghetti .Junk.Broke a piece off the case to Okay now that the snap ring is off,nope the cover would not budge,hours later I give up.So I put the snap ring back in as best I can and kinda hope that it holds.Well what I couldn't do in hours the trany blows out the servo in minutes of driving leaving me on the side of the road.In a weird way I'm finally glad it's apart at least. So I get the truck home and find out that I have to take the servo totally apart while in the transmission.That was another surprise.So now I know it's gonna be a pain in the ass to assemble the servo piece by piece. Be prepared for quite the job if you live in the rust belt. I'm now waiting on a new snap ring as it didn't come with the servo kit

Well that's a interesting read. I know one thing I will not be doing that install My abs unit is now moved to the outside of the frame.With that out of the way it makes for a easier route for my own custom install on my 2003 4.3.no way I'm going install in the same place .thats what started this mess. I'm also thinking of using the ac delco sae 30r9 fuel line hose.They say it's fuel injection compliant .Anyone tried this?

I'm replacing all the brake lines ABS will be moved to outside of frame rail. One reason is that I need to get at the fuel filter and lines that were behind the ABS unit. What a bunch at G M. Good time to do it all while I'm there. Reason two is why would I install the stuff back to a dumb location again Glad I have my 1974 c10 up and running. I got this truck for a project,and so far it has been
