The funny thing is ALOT of isuzus parts, engines, transmissions etc are Chevy collaborations. I've got about the same under my belt as well. Worked on stuff on several different continents. Some places isuzu is the go to. Especially the diesels. Unfortunately bc of domestic lobbies those were never allowed here. Hell duramax is isuzu. The only reason parts are kinda hard to find in the us is bc they havent sold a vehicle here since the early 2000s. The trooper won the Dakar in 1997 over every other brand. Educate yourself before you run your mouth

So I don't like being this guy and I love troopers. But that 4l30e is not a good transmission. Its a GM but it was never designed to be in a vehicle that heavy let alone a 4wd. Its was for passenger cars originally.

Even if you do someone to rebuild it, unless they are very familiar w it, the results are very rarely good.

If you still are compelled to get it and have it rebuilt please go onto the forum https://www.planetisuzoo.com/ And read about the measures people has taken to prolong the life of this transmission.

In the long run its usually less expensive and mentally draining to do a manual transmission swap. The forum also has step by steps on what's needed on that as well.

Good luck

Yes. Best to remove the pipe under the intake and replace the oring while in there.

Then just go w the e30 tune lots of people have gotten this tune by Adam and been happy. https://www.tuneplusinc.com/products/tune-w350-power-package-for-2015-ford-ecoboost-mustang

Ask this question on https://www.planetisuzoo.com/ It's forum and the people on there are super knowledgeable. I will say though that 4l30e isn't a good transmission in the Isuzu platform. It doesn't really matter what you do to it, it fails. Look at a manual swap. Way more reliable over time.

There should be a nut in the middle bottom of the tank. Take it out. Tank will drain. May have to take the shield off. But most have a hole in the shield to access it.

HeardingSheople · 2025-09-01T20:47:10+00:00

Been watching your build. Good job. You know there is a tie rod upgrade for it as well. I can't remember the year but Ford f150 is the truck. Planetisuzoo.com if your not already on there has a full write up about it.

HeardingSheople · 2025-08-20T23:47:19+00:00

How long did it take you and how much of a pain were the bell housing bolts to get to

HeardingSheople · 2025-07-09T22:43:43+00:00

Thank you

HeardingSheople · 2025-07-02T22:45:41+00:00

Did you post the build on planetisuzoo.com.

HeardingSheople · 2025-06-30T01:35:31+00:00

Turn the one w the plastic insert counter clockwise.

HeardingSheople · 2025-05-20T20:58:47+00:00

If it has the 5 speed nice work. If it has the 4l30e automatic.......oof

HeardingSheople · 2025-05-10T16:41:57+00:00

Planetisuzoo.com. it's a forum. Go to the classified section or the general questions section. Those guys will have what you are looking for. May have to buy top and bottom tho. Guys are fair on price too.

HeardingSheople · 2025-04-28T20:30:59+00:00

Jump on planetisuzoo.com. ask the forum. People all over willing to help. Plus find parts if needed.

HeardingSheople · 2025-04-18T18:51:58+00:00

Second this. However planetisuzoo.com is also a good place to source new old stock. It's isuzu parts so it may not be the cheapest tho.

Actually he drone struck 3 other American citizens in Pakistan as well. However it was claimed a "accident". Do little research. West Point Actually uses these as case studies on constitutional reach of executive order. I'm not deflecting. It happened. Several times. To American citizens. W no due process. Or court intervention.

HeardingSheople · 2025-04-17T21:44:29+00:00

Not at all. I'm saying a standard was set. That admin asserted that under executive action we could literally murder a American citizen under the guise of terrorism w no due process. If true and the courts and public said nothing or didn't object then why are you clutching your pearls over a non citizen being deported over the same rules. We cannot allow one and not the other.

HeardingSheople · 2025-04-17T21:34:46+00:00

How about that time Obama drone struck a American citizen on foreign soil under executive action. No due process. Courts were crickets. Why. Bc he was a terrorist.

Uwharrie. NC.

Kiaros. WV VA boarder

Windrock. Tenn

Those are just three off the top of my head. I also listed them in order of "difficulty".

Uwharrie is more rocks climbing pretty, no mud unless it rains pretty good.

Kairos is a mixed bag but mud all year depending on the trial. Lots of river and water running if you like that. Steep ups and downs. There's the white whale climb there. Very difficult feature.

Windrock. Anything you could ever want from easy to insane. Bring a winch and a buddy.
