I'm looking to buy a 4l60e 4wd? I'm looking into like a monster or tci or any company that'll last! I had one off ebay and they rebuilt it 3 times within 6 months! First one lasted about 5000 miles, 2nd about 1000 miles, and 3rd maybe 300 miles. So any input is appreciated! The truck has a crate motor from orielly's and 37 toyos and 4.56s. I'm redoing it again and it'll just be on 33s and 20x12s now.

That's the problem with ordering a transmission from an online builder, hard to know what you're getting. Some people swear by Monster or TCI, but I've seen just as many reports of them failing horribly after very little use. Personally I would not throw money at these guys.

I'd recommend finding a well reputed local builder who will actually talk with you about your goals and what you want to do with the trans and vehicle. I'd only order a complete unit online if there were no other option.

(Also if you're going to be running a decent amount of power and big tires, I'd at least think about upgrading to the 4L80E.)

I'm know I'm late at adding my two cents but I went with O' Reileys auto parts store best warranty around and the company that rebuilds the cores add much more than your regular Trans shop they even dyno them after they are rebuilt and they are all over the place other than mom and pops shop.
