The one we have now is sobering up

If I can keep him off the schnapps he does ok. He's good at hiding it though. I just have to watch where he goes.

Sounds good john but theres a little problem my truck is like yours in pieces, A South Texas BBQ do sounds good if we could get a few good trucks and members together would be nice. So how is your truck coming along?

jchav62 · 01-17-2008, 01:53 PM

Is that a 4L60E or a 700r4. I see a detent cable...4L60E's are computer controlled. I thought they didn't have a detent cable.. ??? Nice looking truck, by the way...Good work!

TimE · 01-17-2008, 01:56 PM

In 91-92 GM decided to rename the 700r4 to 4l60 then in 94 decided to let the computer control the shifting and added the "e" on the end and bought the rest of the transmissions in line with the renaming scheme.
