4l80E trans brake What different trans brake valve bodies are available for this trans (97-up)? Our core is an '06 model.
TCI is no longer making one. Waited two months to find that out. TCI is definitely slipping.
We would like one with a reverse pattern if possible.
I have heard of Jake's, CKS and Rossler. Is there anybody else making one? Who's seems to work the best? Who gives the best support?
Thanks for any helpful info or opinions!

We have a couple of different 4L80E transbrakes.
Ours are forward pattern.
As far as I know there is no reverse pattern unit on the market except the TCI. I wasn't aware they had discontinued it. I wasn't impressed by the design.
We haven't seen any need for a reverse pattern. Reverse pattern VB's came about due to the routing of the fluid for an external solenoid operated transbrake on the TH400's and other units.
We've used various other transbrakes and we ended up developing our own because of issues with ALL of the others we used.
