I got a new truck about a month and knowing some history about it, it got a new 4l60e put in a couple years ago. But when I bought it I noticed it was leaking, shifting wierd, and wouldn’t go higher then 3rd gear. After talking with the previous owners they agreed to help me get the tranny warrantied since it’s in their name. After going back and forth with the company they agreed to have it warrantied so now I’m a getting a fresh stock rebuilt tranny.
So with that being said I want it to be reliable, and last longer than a couple years. I know 4l60s arnt known for taking much abuse. The truck is 98 exsb 4wd, 6 inch lift, 35” tires, stock radiator cooler no external cooler. What are some recommendations to upgrade in the new tranny to have it perform better and be reliable. I was thinking about doing the transgo hd2 kit and add an external cooler, but I have seen some things about a corvette servo. Plans for the engine is basically keep it stock or just mild bolt ons. I plan on towing occasionally, off roading seldom, mostly a point a to b truck, maybe need to drive 100 miles round trip with some mountains at highway speeds for work. Thank you for any advise give
