Chris' 04 Sierra 1500 Fun Daily Build

[Chris]

Wish I could say that.

You can. Relocate.

You can. Relocate.

I plan to after I'm done with school.

[Chris]

I am pretty sure my trans is toasted. 1st is barely there at times. It needs to hang on a little longer. I need to start shopping for a rebuild or used. I cant afford a $3000 unit right now. Or even in the next couple months.

That sucks!

If I renumber correctly it's a 4L60e you bought to match-up with the LQ9, yes?

Is this totally unexpected, or do you work the truck real hard?

[Chris]

No. This is the 4L60E that rolled out of Oshawa with my truck. It has 190,000 miles on it. I was expecting this for about 2 years. Just started having trouble the past couple weeks.

No. I actually like the 60e. My quote is 1600 to rebuild with new converter.

We have used this place before when the Dodge 2500 grenaded a transfer case on the freeway

I like the second gear pull in a 60e

Are you running LED bulbs in the tails?

 

And wow I didn't expect the 60e to last for 2yrs behind the 6.0. Very cool.

I'll feel way better about the 60e when it's time for a LQ4. Maybe a monster trans beef up when the time comes depending on$$$

They were Sylvania Zevo LED bulbs.
