trust us, you have a 4l60e its a car transmission GM thought would be good to put into a truck, they are weak on a stock setup, putting 33's on is a lot of stress, you really should put 4.56's in with 35" tires.

Should I go 4l80? I wouldn't mind an upgrade if there is a more suitable one

to upgrade to a 4l80e you need a new front and rear drive shaft, move the trans cross member some tuning, it will change your output ratio so the speedo will be off,
personally i would get a flt level 4 version of the stock trans or something similar

Well I have a blackbear tune with the autocal so tuning isn't an issue but should I regear and get the expensive ass tranny or would an ol stock tranny with different gears do the trick, and what would changing the gear do to the truck pros and cons

Well I need to get my beast back on the road and I do all my own work and have a full time job so I'm just looking for a plug and play here I just need to know if I should do both or just get the gears

if you do the rear gears you gotta do the front,
you looking at like 1k for gears and 1500 for a stock trans rebuild or 3500-4500 for a bamf trans.
gears will give you more low and power, more MPG on back roads and traffic, but will suffer on the highway because it will turn more RPM

Well, just as soon as I got my white truck all fixed up from someone slamming into the front of it, it happens again!
Except this time it's the grey truck....
Some dude thought my truck needed to see a dentist, so he let his expedition fuck my grille up all to hell!
Looks like some exterior renovations will be coming soon for ole grey!

Nga you crazy. Loved my 80e in my HD. Abused the shit out of it, had 34.5s on stock gears and it handled it like a champ.
Oh mine will handle like 800rwhp.. I just hate the 8 mile long first gear lol. I need 4.10s instead of my 3.73s but since I'm planning on dropping and running a 29" tire I might hold off lol. Mine also still hasn't been tuned much since I got it lol. So don't listen to me :cheeky: I'm sure once I get it dialed in ill love it
