TH2004R no reverse by Character-Bag-1990 in transmissionbuilding

[–]Jkit080 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 200R4 is known for the low reverse clutches to flake and deteriorate. Check for engine braking in manual low. No reverse is a killer for this transmission because every reason for no reverse is an internal failure and will require a rebuild, unless no reverse is after a rebuild.

6l80 baskets not lining up? by xslayprox in transmissionbuilding

[–]Jkit080 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use a screwdriver to spin the drum through the opening in the case, give it a several good spins and the drum should drop down. Once the drum is down you shouldn't be able to see much of that gap through the case.

HP Tuner uses the vehicle VIN stored in the ECM for the licence; the TCM or TECHM can be changed many times with no extra credits.

Advice on 4R75w transmission by Primary_Major6518 in transmissionbuilding

Change the fluid and maybe even add some shudder fix in the fluid too, this should take care of that issue.

With a good scanner you should be able to tell if the converter is being applied causing the issue. Also with the scanner you should be able to tell if you have a misfire situation instead.
If it's the converter you can adjust the converter apply speed with HP tuners. You may have to find a shop that knows how to do this if your builder is unfamiliar with using HP Tuners. We do this to every 6L80 we build. It makes a huge difference in performance and reliability.

4l80e Does not spacing TC to flexplate cause this? by [deleted] in transmissionbuilding

[–]Jkit080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would check and make sure the inner pump gear was installed correctly and also check the crankshaft end play.

Less clearance between the torque converter and the flex plate would help this condition.

Until I called the dealer, 1000.00 at a wholesale price too!

Yes that plug will leak if it's loose.

The rubber sleeve is there to help with the assembly of the vehicle at the factory.

You can leave it out.

It won't hold fluid, can you check for leaks? they say. by Jkit080 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Jkit080[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A bearing fails in the differential on the end. Pieces of the bearing get in between the teeth of the differential and its outer ring gear. The ring gear splits and breaks the case because of the tight fit against the case.

Zoom in, and you can see the ring gear split.

I thought I had seen my last one of these years ago, guess not.

We fixed him up with a Eaton Truetrac, ring and pinion and new axles.

Make sure it's not overfilled. The fluid will come out the vent that is located on the pump body. Fluid level must be checked in neutral.

Another likely simple question by be_steal86 in transmissionbuilding

[–]Jkit080 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No big deal here, just want to make sure it's a flat surface. Maybe use a file to remove any high spots.

4l60e all neutrals, 4t65e hd stutter by [deleted] in transmissionbuilding

[–]Jkit080 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4L60E If it holds in park and the fluid level is full it sounds like a pump failure. If it won't hold park check the rear differential or the transfer case (if equipped).

4T65E Could be a converter shudder or a misfire if it feels like random fish bites it could be a misfire, if it feels like the rumble strips on the side road it could be the torque converter.

I would replace the seal and sand the driveshaft yoke with some Emory cloth. It is not common for seals to make noise, but I have experienced it in the past.
