Chive On

I need a rebuilt 4l60e or someone to rebuild mine but everywhere I've checked in Colorado wants 2300 plus. Does anyone recommend a shop in Colorado that is maybe in the 1300 plus range that has good ratings? 2007 GMC Savana AWD

I bought my 4l60E remanufactured replacement from Florida. Cost about $ 1100.00. Free shipping unless you need lift tailgate($89.00). No core return. Mines been in since 11/2/2018 with no issues. Name was Patriot Transmission and they were advertised on Amazon, but I bought direct.

get a used one from a low mileage wreck. Flush all your lines, put in new filter and drain plug.and buy a new torque converter.
Find mechanic that works on side and you can do it In a weekend for less than a grand

Why would you go to the effort of buying a pig in a polk and go to all the effort of pulling and installing an unknown transmission?

Fluid usually indicates condition of the trans. I got a world class t5 out of a Camaro that had just been rebuilt before the motor was blown.
. They do have a exchange policy and for $25 you can extend it to 6 months.
I've never had a problem out of used parts. Can smell bad or burned fluid. Feel the fluid and probably have it analyzed before buying. Fleet vehicles are always better maintained than John q public's. But if you are going to spend 3 grand or more call a few dealers to price one from factory. Will have a much better warranty than rebuild shop

I can take a tired, worn out, abused transmission out of a vehicle, and put brand new fluid in it. You won't even know how miles it has.

Yep,most people forget about the trans fluid after the dealer service ends. Have seen them ask how to check it in a parts store.. I admit that I never put a drain plug in one till I met the 700r4. Synthetic fluid I dont know yet. Just got used to putting Ford fluid in a chevy trans. Only dealing with synthetic oil because mobile has 15w50 with zinc. Did not know that once I cleared 50 I would have to start reading so many dang labels

Oh back to subject. Monster trans may be one that's worth the money. Durable parts used and a a 7 year warranty. And looks like they've knocked $700 off the basic 4l60e $1,199 now

Do your research on monster with the bbb. They've had a lot of issues .

Got mine on eBay along with a 2 year warranty. $575 or so shipped from two time zones away vs $800+ for 90 day warranty locally.

ALL cars run on used parts.
