ZIP TIES AND PB BLASTER
Well finally got around to finishing the trans rebuild this weekend. Broke a bolt and a few other setbacks but it’s together and fingers crossed it actually works. For being my first COMPLETE rebuild there is a steep learning curve but luckily the 4l80e is relatively simple as far as autos go. Google has been my friend as I do not have a service manual but made do and all clearances/tolerances ended up in spec.
The completed mods per Jake’s kit:
Heavy duty intermediate snap ring
Rollerized output and forward hub
Dual fed direct piston
Extra clutch and steel in direct drum
Sonnax o ringed boost valve
Line to lube and front seal drain pump mods
Accumulator delete (will be fine tuning shift harshness in hptuners down the road)
Jake’s separator plate drilled for desired shift feel.
Will be installing Jake’s high flow filter after initial break in as well.
Jake’s claims built this way it’s safe up to 800hp. To me this is overkill for a stock engine truck but I would rather it be way than fail again.
I opted to go with a 2000-2200 hd towing stall instead of the factory 1600-1800 to hopefully give the ole girl a little more grunt.
If I’m motivated enough I should have it in and driving around in the next couple weeks.
