Re: my 80 build

well it looks like I need to get a fly wheel and spacer from a 6.0 that came with 4l80, then I need to get a arp crank pulley bolt and torque converter bolts, when I get another trans I'll check the pan if good then a new filter which I do have, degrease the trans and bolt it to up to the motor, mock up to the trans cross member and install the valve springs and bolt up the accessories

Re: my 80 build

thanks guys lkq still hasn't gave me my money back so once I get that deal straightened out I'll keep on looking because I may just go with a 4l60e and have it beefed up

Re: my 80 build

I would hold out for a 4L80. I think a 6.0 would eat a 4L60E, even if it had some good hard parts. You will probably get out cheaper in the end, too.

Re: my 80 build

I was able to borrow my grand pa's jeep today at least till April when he comes back from south Texas, so I may start tearing apart the suspension from my truck to sand blast or at least use a wire wheel on a grinder and paint and install on the new frame and yes I will stay slammed, but I will use my cut spring instead of the three inch drop springs
