We highly recommend NOT reusing the OEM solenoid pack, it’s like reusing a condom. Remove all T25 bolts from the valve body assembly and the solenoid pack should simply just come off. It’s most helpful to just simply not move the cam-plate during this process.Ĥ - Set the valve body, solenoid pack down, on a clean working surface. This position should be park, ensure it stays in this position when you’re re-installing it so that it lines up with the shift linkage internally.
Observe the “fork” on the cam-plate (the black and silver part that you can slide across the detent spring and it will “pop” into each position) and note it’s position. At this point, the valve body should simply descend out of position. The pan filter has a small T25 bolt holding it in place, keep this as it will be needed later.ģ - Remove the 6 8mm bolts from the valve body that hold it into the case itself. Do NOT reuse your old oil!Ģ - Remove the pan filter and spin-on filter, and discard. Drain your oil into a secure container and dispose of it properly. If your pan is fitted with a drain plug, you’ll like to use it now to drain the oil in a clean fashion. *Keep in mind, this process requires changing the filters and pan to case seal from the original, so this guide will be written from the perspective of someone who also purchased our 68RFE Filter & Service Kit.*ġ - Remove the OEM pan completely. They shrink a few micrometers and that makes a difference! Once they get back to room temperature, they’ll seal perfectly.ģ - Once the truck is nice and cool, remove the solenoid pack wiring harness pig-tail from the driver side of the transmission assembly (the only wiring harness plugging into this part of the transmission) and proceed to the next step.

Why? Our tolerances are so perfect, the pistons are easiest to install frozen. To be productive, put your Formula One Billet Accumulator Piston Set inside the freezer. (Over-achievers may just use a lift for this step)Ģ - Allow the truck to cool down to ambient temperature. Hence, safety precautions should be taken to ensure the vehicle stays stationary. You’ll be removing the valve body completely from the vehicle, which does not necessarily remove it from park, but makes it easier for the transmission to potentially pop out of park. Once these items are procured, it’s time to begin the installation process of the kit! If the transmission is currently in the truck, please do the following, if it is removed from the truck, skip to the next section:ġ - Park the truck on flat ground, employing the parking brake and chocking one tire facing downhill or on both sides for additional safety. (1) 1/8” Drill Bit (Only if purchasing kit WITHOUT Formula One Billet Channel Plate) (1) Bit necessary for the pan bolts, this may vary depending on the pan being used.

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how to properly install the easiest to use shift kit in the world, our Bulletproof kits!Īs preparation for installing the Bulletproof68 kit to the transmission itself you’ll need the following tooling:
Diy 4l60e shift kit update#
This 4th update includes the billet NeverLeak L/R Switch Valve and improved material for the billet accumulator girdle, securing it’s reputation as the ultimate accumulator solution for the RFE series transmissions. As the name suggests, this is the 4th update to our coveted Bulletproof68 kit. Before we proceed, we want to thank you for pursuing the engineered and machined in-house “Bulletproof68” V4.0 DIY Shift Kit.
