what is the difference between a 700R4 and a 4L60e Transmission if any at all an what is one of the best are second best Shift Kits you can put in a 700R4 I have LT1 350 Corvette motor came equipt with 330HP in the crate what is the best Torque Converter that I can use for the power that the motor is putting out

[BoxWrench]

@windhammer357 - The 700R4 is a non electrically shifted 4 speed GM trans.

The 4L60E is basically the same transmission, but with Electronic shifting.

The 4L60E is a move descriptive model number than the previous GM names such as; TH350, TH400 and 700R4

For the '4L60E' the "4" stands for four speeds, the "L" is for a longitudinally mounted position (as opposed to the laterally mounted 4 cyl engines), the "60" is for the 60,000 gross vehicle weight limit and the "E" is electronic shifting.

thanks for the video! I'm gonna try to rebuilt a ford taurus trasmission myself Looks Like I'm gonna need a work bench and lots of cleaning fluid, what is best to use?? Thinner?

[BoxWrench]

Don't use Paint Thinner for any cleaning of auto parts.

It leaves a residue behind.

Lacquer Thinner is much better for the job, but beware, it strips paint off of anything. You should protect your skin from it as well with plenty of latex or better yet, nitrile gloves.

@PABLO7912 I used the transgo shift kit very easy and it cured my 1870 code

[kantrzyn]

Why this is so complicated (I think about the construction not about disassembling) What a labyrinth.

You have to be a genius to design such complicated devices.

i rebuilt my transmission 2005 f150 pick up and the O/D light still flashing and the words on dash where the mileage goes- transm fault- still there what needs to be done to reset it? thanks for your help

[TokenWolf1]

hey people i need help. i have a mitsubishi eclipse spyder gt v6 convertible (01) and my transmission is acting up. I plugged my scanner up and it gave me the code P0760 and it said it was a shift solenoid C and D malfunction. How do i go about fixing this? im fresh out of school for auto technology so i wana try and do it myself but im nervous and dont want to mess anything up.

[rapsag1974]

@BoxWrench good day I know I have a desperate problem with my transmicion the problem is that it enters the solenoid switch 3 speed and b remains the same I could lend a hand to tips no ablo English by a translator mexico
