4L60E rebuild parts I am looking into rebuilding my trans while its out during the torque converter swap, would like to know what clutches are the best to use?
Many I have asked advised to use GM clutches, billet servos, kevlar band, beast shell, and the seals preferred oem.
Would like to hear from the gurus here or people who have rebuilt their own trans and what worked best behind a good 3600 stall.

I would go out and get a transgo hd-2 shift kit, corvette servo, beast sun shell, the kevlar band, and new clutches if the car has a good amount of miles on it.

I already have an HD-2 kit, love it I must say.
Beast sun shell is already on the list.
Who makes a great kevlar band?
I was advised that GM clutches are the best to use, friends of mine have been happy with Z-pack too.
Only tool I would have a hard time finding is the spring compressor.

how much do you want to spend there are the sprags to upgrade the planetary upgrade and with the 3/4 clutch I like to go with a high type but stay with the 6 pack I found that the thin steals warp and burn up the clutches also, any plastic pistons up grade to aluminum also you can up grade the 3/4 & forward pistons
as far as the hard parts with the build like compressing the 3/4 basket and installing the Teflon o rings just bring the basket to a local shop and buy some parts there and they will prob do this stuff for free

I have done some searches, found lots of kits, and they seem well priced, most expensive was 500$, but I need to consider shipping as well.

Definitely don't use a kevlar band. The high energy material is the best to use.
