2004 4WD Chevrolet Tahoe | 4L60e Transmission | How Bad Did It Get?

[@thebees4371]

Wow, I'm impressed. You have to have a very good memory and skill to do what you do. Bro you make it look easy. 👊🏾

[@FSPtransmissions]

Been doing it a while bro! Thank you for the kind comment!

[@gilangbram]

Fascinating. I am not mechanic guy and doesn't know anything about car. But this clip is very pleasing.

[@scoldeddogproduction]

Thanks for showing how the park works! I've always been told to not rest the vehicles weight on the teeth with park but I've never seen it before.

[@FSPtransmissions]

Yes! Trying to go more in depth in these videos luckily I had my girlfriend to film today. Glad I could help you!

[@scoldeddogproduction]

@@FSPtransmissions she did a great job with the camera work and man you're fast. I've been waiting for a Tahoe transmission video. I'm looking forward to the rebuild video.

[@OrdoSanctiBenedictus]

Major respect

[@officialaaronshawmusic]

This will be me soon. 97 Tahoe 4wd 4l60e. 208k miles. Going into reverse causes stutter and a clunk. Drive it till it dies while saving up the 2k for the transmission guy.

[@gamepassgamer3755]

Can we get a full rebuild video?

[@nickgonzalez2707]

Do u have a 2003 4l80 video. My truck hits hard in 2nd. I have to let off the gas to keep it from hitting hard if i down shift it from 3rd to 2nd it hits but not near as hard.

[@FSPtransmissions]

Will be doing a 4L80 video soon! Gotta get caught up first haha!

[@ericharris893]

I been paying but I wanna doo my own 4L80

[@scoldeddogproduction]

I have a 2002 Tahoe. Original transmission with over 235k on it. It shudders when shifting at low speeds. Is it time for a rebuild or? I had the transmission oil replaced about 80k ago. I doubt the filter has ever been replaced.

[@FSPtransmissions]

I advise all customers who have a shudder/vibration to have it completely gone through. Something as small as bushing can be worn out and slowly but surely cause more damage. If it has 235k on it you’ve done a fantastic job on your maintenance and proper upkeep. She’s probably just getting tired.

[@scoldeddogproduction]

@@FSPtransmissions I pamper it pretty well, but I guess it's time for some real love. Any ballpark figure for what I should expect to pay?

[@FSPtransmissions]

I wouldn’t trust anyone under $1300 make sure you get a new convertor as well! :-)

[@ericharris893]

A professional I know does em on the side. Charges 500 to rebuild 500 to install you buy all the parts, and he won’t do it if you don’t use a new converter and new cooler

[@wr1ght939]

Thanks for teaching me more about transmissions! I’d love to own a 7th Gen Monte Carlo SS one day and I get a sneaking feeling that I’ll need to get familiar with them 😅. Would you consider doing some FWD stuff or is that a whole different animal?

[@FSPtransmissions]

Haven’t took the jump on the FWD stuff yet, if the demand gets high enough you may see me elbows deep in one 😂 thanks for the comment! You guys keep me going!

[@wr1ght939]

@@FSPtransmissionsNo problem! Keep up the good work!

[@shawnswnh1054]

I have a 1999 Chevy suburban 1500 with 233K on it that needs a transmission rebuild, what are the updates that should happen during the rebuild?

[@FSPtransmissions]

Depending on if it’s for towing or not… in my “stock” builds I go back with a freshly refaced and fresh bushing pump stator, 13V New pump slide, rotor, rings, and vanes, .500 boost valve, corvette servo, all new pwm, 3-2 downshift, shift sol. 1 & 2 , case bushing, reverse input drum bushings, manifold pressure switch, Epc, alto frictions, electronic updates, hard Sunshell, 5 pinion planetarys (towing), molded pistons, proper separator plate modifications, screens, gaskets and filters, tail and pump seal, along with the proper torque convertor.

[@shawnswnh1054]

@@FSPtransmissions what’s something like that cost?

[@robb15033]

Good video. How durable do you think my transmission is on my 08 Corolla 4 speed. 126k miles and it's had 3 drop and fill fluid jobs done on it. Runs great so far.

[@FSPtransmissions]

As long as the fluid doesn’t smell like death your probably good to go for another 100k. I’m not a Toyota guy but I’ve been in the books.

[@robb15033]

@@FSPtransmissions Thanks The fluid looks and smells fresh. I hope to get a few more hundred thousand miles. I do my part with maintenance

@@robb15033 your car with thank you in return if you treat it with respect 🏁

[@kurtes25]

I came looking for a 4L80e, don't these things break? I have a '99 Sierra 2500 4x4 with about 208k and the original tranny fluid. Drove it in the mountains around Reno NV pulling a popup camper trailer, owned it since 59k and just didn't pay attention to some of the maintenance, my bad. It's spent the last couple years on flatland, but the tranny fluid still smells okay. Am I just lucky?

What happen when the input reverse drum or the input drum get stuck or what cause this problem? And how can be solve it

How much would that cost the customer? Great video!!

@@FSPtransmissionsthat’s not bad how much to install it

That's worth it. I couldn't do it. This video is the first time I've ever seen inside a transmission. I feel like I just watched you disassemble a robot. Great job 👏

[@Keeter94]

Not sure if this a question you can answer on KZbin but it’s worth a shot. For the condition this transmission is in how much for the whole overhaul package out the door? 😂 be nice to me

add a mic near your mouth or bring the music down a notch otherwise great stuff !

Don’t make me lose sleep tonight haha this was a spare core we had

[@kylebryan4759]

@FSPtransmissions the only reason I noticed is I worked at a shop for a shirt time that had tons of left over green o rings in 4l60 kits and nobody knew where they went 🤦🏻‍♂️ it was the green o ring in the input drum very bottom under 3rd piston they had never changed one since the doors had been open.

[@FSPtransmissions]

Yep! Very thin, and you can cut yourself easily on the machined aluminum

[@Heinrich_STG44]

Why do Chrysler/Dodge/Ram automatics suck? I love Dodge but i won't buy one with a automatic. Their 728 torque-flite always seemed to be a good trans. I believe the newer ones are based on the 727 but they suck. What's up with that?

[@FSPtransmissions]

The 727 and 904 are great transmissions but the 48re in the dodges are THE BEST. (Diesel) You can push a stock 48re case to 1,000 hp. I wouldn’t necessarily say Chrysler/Dodge suck, I would argue that upkeep and proper maintenance on the dodge models are more crucial. You can pour a cup of sand in a Chevy TH350 and it’ll still work (I haven’t tried but they are tough as nails) These newer drivelines won’t take that much neglect. But, if you want to hold some real hp the 48re is top dog.

Pro tip. Lose the background music, completely. It so loud that it drowns out what you are saying. Why some tubers think that background music is needed is beyond me. Do you not actually watch these videos before posting them?

[@bonekiller3494]

also get a mic to clip on to you for your voice to be clearer and louder

[@FSPtransmissions]

My girlfriend liked it and she recorded this video so no I didn’t change it. The music was in there for 2 min out of 23 min. My girl liked it, I posted it, she was happy, I’m happy. Sorry you didn’t like the 2 measly minutes of unintentionally annoying music.

[@pakviroti3616]

@@FSPtransmissions People are telling you it doesn't help your video. You could not be heard. Even after it ended your audio was too low for whatever reason. The criticism isn't meant to be mean spirited, it is meant to provide feedback that YOU and your girlfriend can learn from. Whether you learn from it and improve your content, only you can decide.

I have accumulated over 250,000 followers on the 4 platforms I am on in less that 8 months. I have reached over 50 million people collectively. By changing the music am I going to accomplish more? I ensure you I am not being arrogant, again, this video was for the majority of fun, hell there’s not even subtitles. I rewatch my videos 10 different times before posting and take pride in my work. I don’t have my new cameras yet and all this is done on my phone to strictly help people.
