4L60e Gearbox

[Riababy]

Hi guys

I have had my camaro 1996 RS for 2 weeks and we found out last weekend that the gearbox is on the way out and we are on the look out for a replacement one. Does anyone have or know of anyone who has one up for sale?

Cheers
Maria

Eliott on here may have one? I may have spelt his name wrong so do a member search.

The 4th gen never had an RS as far as I'm aware. It was just the V6 and Z28 and SS.

They brought the RS back in 1996

Camaro RS was also re-introduced. Last seen as a 1992 model, it was basically a V6 coupe with a ground effects package and RS badging on front fenders and "+RS" under right tail light.

Ill have a look for Elliott and see what I can find. Thanks

I have had a look for Eliott but cant find anything.

Can someone point me in his direction?

Thanks

I am halfway through rebuilding a 4L60E, they are a bit prone to trouble and have lots of potential problems that can be ironed out during a good rebuild.

I am doing the work myself and using parts from the Us, a new torque converter is pretty essential as is all the clutch packs and a new sun cage, they crack and are prone to fail GM updated the design a few years later and you can retro fit a later part.

I have a DVD here that show strip down, assesment and rebuild.

Mine was toasted, the heat due to lack of trans cooler killed mine.

Hi - just passing through the yank section and saw my name mentioned! I sold my spare one.
Whats wrong with your current one? - they are pretty easy to fix and there's plenty of people who can help with advise.
There's one on ebay right now:

Which would be a good core for a rebuild.

there is a salvage company in essex (cut maple salvage) who have a 98 V6 in for breaking, its on ebay. They still have to box I think. I was gonna get it but found out that v6 and V8 boxes may have some different internals so didn't get it.

3/4 pack has fewer plates, but physically its the same and Input shaft is different as well (I think..)

Thanks
