Help with 4L60e rebuild parts

4L60E help buying parts
Have any of you ever used these guys?

http://www.transmissioncenter.net/4L60E.htm

They make the Raptor 4L60E

I may be buying all my parts and have the trans done locally, and also the R&R.
The shipping is too much, or non existant, to get a trans to Alaska.
I know my trans doesn't have long to go, so I am trying to put some ideas together.
My mods are in sig below. Thanks for any help.
I am going to get these parts to start with, and anything else I need.

#6 - Borg Warner Sprag
#11X - Raybestos Kevlar band
#14XX - Raybestos Blue Plate special ctuches
#19X - 5-pinion rear planet
#19XX - 5-pinion front planet
#44X - reaction carrier shaft with Beast shell
#45 - Torque Drive, hardened input shaft and shell

I belive they quoted me about $1000 for this stuff plus S&H
My R&R of the tranny will be about $2000

$2000 for labor WOW that hurts

our stage 4 4l60e is $1775 shipped to the lower 48 states with your core and our install is $350 so i would say your paying way to much

good luck

I had another guy quote me for like 2500 for everything(with his own "heavy duty parts"), but I would rather have someone who knows about performance trans do it, and he said I can get super duty parts and bring them in, or he can do it.
Chef, your deal is a good bang for buck, that's for sure.
Do you guys build it, or is it FLP or something?

It sucks being so far away sometimes

[GoingtoArgen]

well, so far looks like I want these parts


#6 - Borg Warner Sprag
#11X - Raybestos Kevlar band
#14XX - Raybestos Blue Plate special ctuches
#19X - 5-pinion rear planet
#19XX - 5-pinion front planet
#44X - reaction carrier shaft with Beast shell
#45 - Torque Drive, hardened input shaft and shell (package)


metal accumulator piston

#38 high output pump slide spring
#41 intermediate servo release check valve
#45P spring set and piston- needed for torque drive package

maybe a billet servo :dunno:

any other suggestions????
Thanks :)

free shipping to Alaska? EDIT_ zip is 99515

How much for core, or is that(turnaround) included?

Can you get me a list of parts that your builder uses?

basically all the parts I listed are some of the best available,
and I don't want to have to mess with the trans again for a while :D
I will probably also be getting a stall. I think I want a 3000 stall, but not positive yet, since I do drive it in the winter(4-6 months a year ;) )

what kind of guarantee?
I will probably be having Alaska Transmission and Gear do the install.
Thanks :thumbup:

[GoingtoArgen]

FLP WILL ship me one for 410 bucks round trip including turnaround for core.
2695 for their level 5, with their best parts, plus I need the steel vacuum line for their trans, plus boost bypass for the trans vac. line. 895 for Vig convertor.
Wasn't really planning on 4-5 grand for the trans including install :mad:
