Re: Rear Planetary Gear replacement.

Thank you sir, appreciate the advice too.
This is my 3rd 700 to go into, knew the 4l60e was probably the same gear. Just never messed with them to know for sure.
Thanks again.

Re: Rear Planetary Gear replacement.

So if you can put a 5-pinion planet into a 4l60e and a 700r4, then I should be able to put a 4 pinion planet from a 4l60e into a 700r4?

The noise it makes is not as relevant as the leak itself. If there is a leak and it is letting air in then the 02 will read lean (0 to 0.4 volts) and cause a false lean condition. A good scan tool...
