4L60E Tailshaft housing
So i am pretty sure I broke the tailshaft housing on the trans this weekend.
What does something like this usually cost to fix?
Thanks

I hope I didn't bend the output shaft but if I did I'll be putting a 300M billet one in because I was going to do it one day anyways.
I was thinking it would be an easy fix if nothing internally was damaged.
Thanks for the reply.

We have a ton of tranny places around here, thousands of used parts.
They're on ebay right now for as little as $29.95.
Not sure which one you need though:

I don't know if that is the one I need or if it is the 6 bolt one.
I just PM'd FLT to see what they use on the level 5 that I have.
I'm pretty sure it's this one.

Tailshafts break often because the torque arm is constantly tugging on it. I personally would run a relocation cross member from BMR or UMI and run a truck tail. Remember if you are going back stock you have to have one with the molded torque arm mount. Because the relo cross members move the torque arm off the transmission, you can run a standard tail which is easy to acquire from trucks and such since they don't have torque arms. Thats the setup I'm currently running. Junkyard tail off a truck going on my trans at the builder's shop:

Yep they are pricey, but better then breaking tailshafts and doing more damage then that to the trans. I got mine used here for around $160 shipped, so there are deals out there.
