I have a 2002 chevy silverado 1500 4X4 Z71 with the 5.3L V8. The original trans. went out and was replaced with a used 4L60e. Now the transmission wont engage any gear. after researching ive come to the conclusion its the wrong model 4L60e. My truck has the automatic 4WD button in it which if im not mistaken changes the electrical part of the trans because it uses speed sensors. correct?
The transmission that replaced the original one is a (9LUD). It should actually be a (2KCD) correct? Or if you could tell me what transmissions (4L60e) models i can interchange with. Does the Z71 designate it as having the Automatic 4WD?

It can have the 4l60e or you can install a 4l80e, if thats what you are asking. The z71 should have auto 4x4 as a standard option

Thank you for the response. Let me give you a little more background info relating to the situation. The original transmission went out about 6 weeks ago. A replacement transmission was purchased from a auto salvage yard. It had supposedly came out of a 2003 Suburban 2500. Now this is where the problem begins. The model number of the replacement 4L60e trans is 9LUD. The trans that came out of my truck was a 2KCD. My truck has the Auto4WD button as well as push buttons for 2LO,4HI and 4LO. From what ive been able to conclude is that the replacement transmission 9LUD is not designed for the trucks with thw Auto 4WD option.

The problem im having with this transmission is that it wont engage any of the gears. I was not aware of the different 4L60e transmissions prior to installing it, unfortunately. Now i think ive educated myself a little about them but would like a second opinion from someone more knowledgeable on this than i am.

Am i correct in thinking that the 9LUD is not a compatible replacement for the2KCD that came in the truck originally?

Also another thing that before i installed it wasnt aware of but was told by the salvage yard that i got it from that they supplied me with the wrong torque converter. But i know this is now not true. The torque converter they gave me was the matched one for the 9LUD but the bolt pattern to mount it on the flex plate in my truck wasnt even close plus the TC in my truck is much larger.

So i hope you can decipher from this what i am trying to figure out. I have dropped the trans out again and i am scheduled to return it to salvage yard on Monday 6/2/14 for an exchange but want to be sure i know what to look for as far as id numbers etc on trans to be sure its correct this time.

Thank you very much for you time and suggestions.

Check out this site. Their chart says that transmission is a 99 model year. Maybe that trans wan't the original for the suburban. Or they are jerking you around. What was wrong with your trans? Just remember if you buy junk you own junk.

I've seen 2500 suburbans with the auto 4x4. But 2500 silverados in 03 didnt come with auto 4x4

I'd get my money back and never buy a used transmission again , if you're keeping the truck , get a rebuilt transmission or have your old one estimated

 

IMO you're wasting your time

Yes i agree with both of you 100%. I know i refered to it as my truck but in reality its a good friend of mines truck and she was led to believe that the trans mission was purchased as being rebuil etc. by the person who took out the original trans and put thie piece of junk in. Now im just trying to straighten out the whole thing and get her what she needs to get her truck back on the road because in the mean time shes using mine. So you can see why im desperate to find the right info.

Also unfortunately the salvage yard wont refund money just exchange only. But thats another whole story in itself.

 

Thank You very much for your time and for sharing that info.

 

IMO if i were her would take the loss and considerate a learning experience. Then break out the piggy bank and get a rebuilt one and have it installed professionally. Although i think i am capable of the job i dont need the headaches resulting from it....LOL

 

Thanks again.

If you used a credit card to buy the tranny, just explain it to the CC on. and they'll cancel the charge.

So you can't just use any 4l60e they have to have the same features?

You can use any 1/2 ton 4L60e Trans the transfer case makes no difference.

 

Years that fit 99-06-07 classic truck

2000 NBS - 2006 full size Suv

 

Sounds like the OP got a bad used transmission.

I have a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 series extend cab, blew the transmission. I have a transmission out of a 2001 Chevy Silverado 1500 series extended cab which I think is the 4l60, will this transmission fit my GMC?

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
