cb2big4u Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I would think that when doing 2500$ worth of work he would have asked if I wanted to get a new 100$ shaft while it was all taken apart. The only part that he didn't replace other than the case... Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desrtrat Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 . I have my tune slamming gears. I also love to WOT first to second. that may be the root of your issues..harsh/violent shifts may/can/will break stock hard parts.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 I agree, my trans was $1700 and he said he didn't mention replacing that part because usually its not a issue. Guess we proved them wrong on that lol that may be the root of your issues..harsh/violent shifts may/can/will break stock hard parts. IMO Bingo! As fun as the crazy shift were I had him dial them back some even with the added billet internals. Not going through this again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb2big4u Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Looks like I'm going to have the tuner do the same. Maybe put my regular driving down to where it should and keep the haul ass button but tone it down a tad also. Been a year and I dog it everyday since the new trans got in. Hell I dogged it before that. Bout time for a 7 yr old shaft to go. Just wish I coulda had the option to replace then and not now.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Mine is being done through the valve body, my tune is actually rather conservative. I do think the billet servos also had a part in the harsh shifts when combined with a radically modded valve body. I am rough on mine also, donuts, burnouts, drifting, and WOT majority of the time when no one is around. Doubt I will ever grow up... You have a warrenty on it?

cb2big4u Posted August 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 At the shop. Really hope its the planetary or something. Anything but the shaft. LOL Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 If its the shaft, sounds like your getting the shaft... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmgak47 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Here is the output shaft from my trans... I bet it will buff right out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bfast Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 You can see the stress fracture in that shaft and how it slowly got bigger. Who knows when it occured and it could be cracked for awhile. Then slowely it gets bigger until it gets enough of a shock to send it on home.

zachm89 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 Im happy with the 80e swap. Didnt cost nearly as much as rebuilding the 60e over and over again and IMO it drives and shifts so much better than the 60. Maybe youll get lucky and catch something thats under warranty.

cb2big4u Posted August 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) Got the call. Output shaft was broke and it took my planetary and some other shit with it. Guy isn't charging me labor. Just 300 some dollars for parts. Going to tone my tune back some...
