Need transmission help

[Kyzrsoze]

Ny last transmission came from https://www.godleytrans.net/. When I talked to them about Doing all the corvette shifter/transgo/upgrades. They talked me out of it. These guys build drag strip race transmissions

Did they think it was a bad idea, or just not necessary?

They quizzed me real hard about our car and our driving habits. Stone stock 1993 chevy suburban, Daily driver, 2-3 times a year tow something as heavy as another car.
I had been replacing the transmission every 5 years since I bought it, and was looking for durability. The more we talked, the more I focused on reducing the temperature.

If it needs a transmission send me the trucks VIN via PM. Under my commercial account I get a 3yr/100,000 mile warranty on a new transmission. Ill get you my price and you can pay for it yourself. Just trying to help save you some money

Check the speedometer Calibration
Larger tires will make the speedo read slow and could cause issues with the computer thinking the vehicle is not traveling as fast as it actually is.

The 4L60E transmission is good. If you don't put on aftermarket cooling it will die. I had a 93 suburban that ate a transmission every 5 years before I figured it out. Stock chevys just aren't set up to keep your transmission cool over the long term.

The ideal range for fluid temperature is between 175 and 225 degrees, and every 20 degree drop in fluid temperature can help to double the life of your transmission.

To say it another way if your transmission goes over 225 it will half the life of your transmission.

With my last overhaul I had aftermarket transmission coolers installed and extra deep (2 quarts extra), finned transmission pan tapped for 1/4 NPT pipe threads. So I could run a FRANTZ toilet paper oil filter.

More fluid quantity = less time the fluid spends inside transmission getting hot. The additional transmission cooler helps get rid of the heat. None or that matters if you don't have a clue how hot your transmission is.

A normally open thermal snap switch set at 225 degrees can be set up to give you an idiot light when you have reached that temperature.
