BigCountry Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 I called around a few places to see if I could find a Corvette servo in stock locally and had more than one shop tell me that the 4L65e all ready had a corvette servo installed... that's part of what make it a 65. I figure it's BS since I've never heard of that before, so what's the skinny fellas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterp Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 GM made 3 2nd apply servos for the 700R4/4L60/4L65/4L70 - the Corvette one, the TBSS one, and "everything else"; the difference is the area of the piston the fluid can 'push' against, the TBSS holds the 2nd band a little tighter than the 'normal' piston, and the Vette servo holds the band the firmest of the three. Your truck WILL NOT have the Vette servo unless a past owner put it in there. Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCountry Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the info guys, i think i'll do this as a band aid to help until I get an 80e ready for the truck. Oh and I see them sold with or without a new pin... what should I get, I've heard the new longer pin helps, but don't know... that part's obvious, lol.

misterp Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 The Vette servo fits in place of the stock servo; use your original pin. Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Mr. P, I really want to add the Vette servos but not sure I want to jump into DIY. Is it truly that easy or should I take it somewhere. I DONT do trans work, never have never planed on it. Barney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
