Default 4l80e rear planet oil problems


So I bought a rebuilt 4l80e and played 2k for it did 3 passes and the rear plante failed. So now I rebuilt it with the red alto clutches and bought a new rear planet dual fed the transmission new oil pump with the sonnax oil booster. Driving it it seemed great shifting awesome and bam the first gear locked up and second and got the trans out striped it and the rear planet is all hot and bushing melted and seezed no oil in it. What is going on any ideas. My case is the newer case with the spread out feed line and the long line fitting is in the rear of transmission thanks for the help.

Did you replace the cooler and flush the lines?

You may have some internal parts mismatched.

Did you use the correct cooler line fitting in the rear of the case? It's a longer one, not like the front. (Assuming of course, that your fittings are front/rear, not up/down)
