About this product

The late 4L60E sits behind the 4.8 and 5.3 V8s in the 2004-2007 GMT800 and 2007-2013 GMT900 Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500, Tahoe, Yukon and Suburban, along with other GM trucks and SUVs of that period. Many of these vehicles towed boats and campers for years, and the heat from that work is what finishes a 4L60E. If yours now slips on the 3-4 shift, flares under throttle, or comes up with burnt fluid on the dipstick, this new banner rebuild kit supplies the frictions, the overhaul seal and gasket set and the filter for a late-production overhaul.

What the banner rebuild kit does in a late 4L60E

Even in its last years, the 4L60E kept the same basic layout: two planetary gear sets, a 2-4 band, and clutch packs that the valve body applies hydraulically to select each ratio. The electronics improved over time, but the soft parts still wear the same way. A hardened piston seal lets apply pressure leak past, the pack slips, the slip creates heat, and the heat glazes the frictions and cooks the fluid. The banner kit breaks that cycle by replacing the frictions in each pack, every seal and gasket opened during teardown, and the filter. It does not replace steels, bushings, drums or planetaries, so those must be inspected and reused or bought separately.

Symptoms on 2004-2014 trucks and SUVs

How to confirm the overhaul is needed

Run a scan before pulling the transmission. Late 4L60Es are sensitive to solenoid and valve body problems that feel like slipping, and our 4L60E common problems guide walks through separating them. If only 3rd and 4th are gone, check the sun shell first; the overrun clutch guide also explains the coast-down and engine-braking symptoms that point to a different pack.

Fitment: 2004 to 2014

This kit is listed for 2004-2014 4L60E transmissions. Two documented changes fall inside that window. Sonnax notes that the reluctor-style stator support shaft appears from 2004 on, and its input shaft, stator and pump cover compatibility article warns that several combinations exist on late units. Transmission Digest also documents a March 2007 GM change to a thicker reaction carrier bearing with a matched carrier and shaft, so a 2004-2007 unit may have either style; do not mix them. Most 4L60E applications ended by the 2013 model year, so a 2014 fitment applies to only a few vehicles. Heavier-duty late units were tagged 4L65E or 4L70E and are not the same transmission, so read the tag. Send us your year and VIN if anything looks different, or see the 2004-only banner kit. The complete parts list for this unit is on the 4L60E collection page.

Install notes

Late units often still carry their original shift solenoids. If yours have high mileage, replacing them while the pan is off costs little compared with pulling the transmission again later.

4L60E Banner Rebuild Kit 2004-2014: common questions

Does this banner kit fit a 2010 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3?

Most 2010 Silverado 1500 trucks with the 5.3 use a 4L60E-family transmission, and this kit is listed for 2004-2014. Confirm the tag, since some late units are badged 4L65E or 4L70E, and send us the VIN if unsure.

Why does the 2007 reaction carrier change matter?

GM moved to a thicker reaction carrier bearing with a matching carrier and shaft in March 2007. Those parts must be kept together as a set; mixing old and new pieces throws off end play.

What fluid does a rebuilt 2004-2014 4L60E take?

Dexron VI ATF. Check the level hot with the engine running after a road test.

Should I replace the sun shell during the rebuild?

If it is the original, yes. Stripped sun shell splines are a common reason these trucks lose 3rd and 4th gear, and a heavy-duty shell is a small cost while the unit is apart.

Is a 2014 vehicle covered?

The listing extends to 2014, but very few vehicles used a 4L60E that late. Read the transmission tag and send us the year and VIN before ordering for a 2013-2014 vehicle.
