Default Ecsb 4x4 broke the case





Check out the carnage that happened on a light throttle 1-2 !!!!

I guess I need a new case now!
Well at least it lasted a couple years since my last rebuild... Hard miles I guess?

well i ended up finding a used trans that supposedly worked when pulled from a 01 suburban. its got junkyard pen marks on it.
the story is he bought it with the plan to swap it himself then ended up just having his trans rebuilt so this sat taking up garage space. i got it and the converter for 250 everything is looking decent so far.

oh and i found a transgo sk4l60e kit in my old build boxes i forgot that i had bought for my previous build that never got used because i bought a recond valve body instead.
so i suppose ill use this shift kit if its the thing to do?

Id like to salvage what i can from the broken one and put as little money as possible into the "new" one.

New trans, converter, VB, apply piston all disassembled.. I should be able to utilize my old accumulator and apply piston assemblies maybe even the plate and especially gotta check on the VB.

Be nice to see what broke instead of the same old same old 4L60E build.

I'm not sure how many threads are needed on building the same thing. Who doesn't like to see blown up ****?

It looks like the rear planet ring gear and low reverse piston are annihilated!!!

Any ideas what caused this? The planet needle bearings are in good shape
