Hey folks. I have a customer that brought me a 2004 Trailblazer 4x4, slips when it tries to shift into 3rd but if you get it going fast enough in 2nd then it skips it and goes into 4th. I did a 2-3 shift solenoid and didnt fix it, colleague says 3/4 clutch pack is going out. I have a donor 4L60 from a 1999 Tahoe that a friend left here hes willing to sell, I just need to know what, if any, modifications I'll need to make to be able to use it. Will it be a direct bolt on with no problems? Swap bell housings? Different torque converter? Thanks for any help.

  I finally got it to start. It was a mix of a few issues. The frame ground was in bad shape so I ran a new one and cleaned up the area to get a good connection then covered it in rust reformer then bed liner to keep it as clean as possible. The other ground I found that looked suspect was on the frame toward the back of the truck near the bed. I did the same. After pulling the fuse box out from the engine bay I found a couple of wires that looked like at some point mice may have got ahold of it. That was an easy fix. After that i was able to get control power and was able to trace down a few more connections going to the other fuse panels in the cab. After that it finally started up and runs. It sounds like an angry school bus which I can work with. No OBD2 codes, but I think since its set for a long time I should pull the turbo and get it rebuilt or swapped out, but for now im good to go. Thanks for all the advice. It got me on the right track.

  Lack of decent colors is why I won't be buying an AT4 next year.

  Was considering a new AT4 next year but after seeing the available colors I'm going to pass.
- Post your UOA, (used oil analysis) here

  Here's the second UOA on my 22 Wrangler with the Ecodiesel. This has 5k miles on AMSOIL Signature Series DEO 5w-40. The first one was dealer installed oil, no clue what it was, the second is what AMSOIL recommended, European FS 5w-40, Most of the Ecodiesel world is showing great results using the European MS 5w-40, I figured I would see how the DEO works. This is using an Ecoguard oil filter. It's my understanding this engine likes to shed aluminum. We will see. So far I don't think this is too bad.
