    Default wanted 4l60e for 2003 astro

    looking for a good transmission that shifts for my 2003 astro van 4l60e figured I would ask here before going to junkyard to get one.

    thanks in advance

    Hey Mike, those 4l60e transmissions have so many flaws it’s almost a guarantee at a minimum the check ball for the pwm/eccc is stuck in the separator plate on ALL used 4l60e, the spring for the ec3 in the vb is broke and you more than likely must get a new converter because the clutches are shot, all the clutch material in your pan is prob converter not trans clutch. If your just going to sell it the minute you replace with a junk one I personally think without a go through and fix the known problems, it’s not going to last, youalso have to replace the radiator, or bypass with a totally different trans cooler, you can not flush 100%.
    This is just the tip, there’s a lot of issues to address with used 4l60e if you plan to keep and it be dependable, I know from my personal experience even a physically known good shifting , acting 60 has issues.
    You might not feel it but sure as hell act it
