I'll be careful, but I'm not too worried. I have the original (not reprint) shop manuals for the truck and I'm usually really thorough when it comes to this sort of thing. It may be a 20 minute job on paper, but with cleaning, pictures,and the way I normally snowball a job, this will take me forever...

Re: Best $15 I ever spent.... Corvette Servo!

Hey guys, I figured I would also change the fluid and filter since I don't know when it was last done (bought truck used). There were only 2 filters available at the parts store, one for the 3 speed auto and one for the 700r4. I obviously bought the 700r4 filter kit.

The filter looked the same as the one that came out but it is making contact with the pan? I was able to bolt it all up but it kind of made me a bit nervous with it hitting the pan like that.

I heard that the pan is actually suppose to make some contact with the filter to keep it in place?

Re: Best $15 I ever spent.... Corvette Servo!

Hey all, I have zero experience with transmissions other than a routine filter fluid change. Is this a safe mod to do without any other trans mods like a shift kit?

Does it put any further strain on any other components?

I have always viewed my 700r4's as disposable due to the fact that they are always the first thing to go in my trucks.

Any input would be great

Yes it is safe if installed correctly. No it will not strain other components.
