4L60E Banner Rebuild Kit 1993-1997, new and ready to install. Fits the 4L60E. Ships fast from the USA.
The first five years of 4L60E production cover a lot of vehicles: 1993-1997 Chevrolet C/K 1500 and GMC Sierra pickups, Tahoe, Yukon and Suburban, S10, Sonoma and Blazer, plus the Camaro and Corvette. If yours now flares between gears when warm, sits for a second before it grabs Drive, or keeps needing fluid, this new banner rebuild kit supplies the soft parts for an overhaul of an early unit without paying master-kit money.
A banner kit is the middle option between a gasket set and a master kit. It gives you the overhaul gaskets and seals, a full set of friction plates and a new filter. In the 4L60E those frictions stack into the overrun, forward, 3-4, reverse input and low/reverse clutches, while the seals are what let each piston hold apply pressure. On a 25-to-30-year-old transmission the steels and drums are often still usable, but the rubber has gone hard and the lining has glazed. Replacing those two groups together is what brings clamping force back to every pack.
Model year matters for diagnosis here. most 1993-1995 vehicles use GM's pre-OBD-II diagnostics, while 1996-1997 units report standard OBD-II codes, so the scan tool you need depends on which end of the range you own. Either way, rule out the pressure control solenoid and valve body first, because a worn bore can make good clutches feel tired. The 4L60E common problems guide walks through each failure by feel, and the valve body rebuild walkthrough shows what to check on the bench. If the pan is full of friction material and gears are missing, the unit needs this overhaul.
This kit is listed for 1993-1997 4L60E transmissions. That span crosses two changes worth knowing. Sonnax separates 1993-1995 valve bodies, which use a PWM-style 3-2 control, from the 1996-later on/off style, and it notes that PWM torque converter clutch control became the norm from 1997 while earlier units used simple on/off TCC apply. Sonnax also warns that early cases without shifter bracket bosses cannot go into 1996-1997 vehicles. A kit that covers all five years has to suit both sides of those splits, so lay the valve body and case gaskets over your parts before assembly and match every seal to the groove it replaces. If the transmission has been swapped or you are not sure of the build year, send us the year and VIN. A 1997 owner can also compare the 1997-2002 banner kit, and every part for this unit is on the 4L60E collection page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is listed for the full 1993-1997 range. Because valve body and converter clutch control changed inside those years, compare each gasket to your case and valve body before assembly, and send us your year and VIN if the transmission is not original to the vehicle.
No. A banner kit covers the overhaul gaskets and seals, friction plates and a filter. Reuse steels only if they are flat and free of heat marks, and plan to buy bushings separately.
Often yes, if the 3-4 clutch pack is burned. Check the sun shell splines during teardown too, because a stripped sun shell causes the same symptom and is not part of a banner kit.
Dexron VI ATF. It is GM's replacement for the earlier Dexron fluids. Fill, run the engine through the gears, and set the level at operating temperature.
Clear any stored codes, check for leaks and the hot fluid level after the first drive, and avoid towing or hard launches for the first few hundred miles while the new frictions bed in.
