thanks. yeah haha i finally had the time to drive up north to pick it up. gotta run to school now but im gonna order he sensor later. my trans is angry at me after i held the gas pedal to the floor through a swamp the other night. it doesnt want to shift out of first gear.. you think its blown ? it was low on fluid when i checked it- would changing the filter and fluid make it come back to life?

wouldnt that make it a 700r4 then? i think the way to tell is the 700r4 has a actual kick down cable where the 4l60 just has the electrical. i dont really know but i could see their being some weird in between year trans that costs like $2000 from the junkyard cause they only made it for one year

4L60 means the same thing as 700R4. They changed the name at some point to better align with the rest of the automatic transmission nomenclature.
