Complete 1997-up GM 4L60E overhaul in one box: gaskets and seals plus friction plates, steel plates and pistons, so the clutch packs go back fresh.
A 4L60E from a 1997-or-later Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Suburban, Yukon or Express van that has started slipping on the 3-4 shift, lost reverse or flares into third has usually burned at least one clutch pack, and the parts next to it took heat too. This Remco ARK-DK7700DXA-R super master kit is built for that repair on later units. It combines the overhaul gasket and seal set with new friction plates, new steel plates and new pistons, so each pack goes back with matched, fresh material instead of reused steels and hardened piston seals.
Clutch apply in the 4L60E depends on three things working together: friction lining, a flat steel to clamp against, and a piston seal that holds apply pressure without bleeding. When the 3-4 or forward pack overheats, all three suffer. Frictions char, steels blue or warp, and the bonded piston seals harden so they leak apply oil and let the pack slip under load. This kit replaces all three at once, which is the point of a super master over a plain master kit. It is aimed at the later case and internal layout used from 1997 on, rather than trying to cover every early part as well.
Look at what is in the pan and how the truck behaves cold versus hot. A slip that grows as the fluid warms points to leaking piston seals and worn packs. Before committing to a rebuild, rule out electrical and valve body causes, because a worn pressure regulator or AFL bore can starve a good clutch pack. Our valve body walkthrough shows the bores to vacuum test, and the overrun clutch guide explains engine-braking complaints that are often confused with a failed pack.
Listed for GM 4L60E transmissions from 1997 on. Early 1993-1996 units differ in several parts, which is why this kit starts at 1997. Within the later range GM still made running changes, so count the plates in each pack at teardown and compare, or send us the year and VIN and we will confirm it. The listing does not call out a band, bushings or filter, so plan on those separately if your unit needs them; the 1993-2013 DK7700ES kit includes them. Everything else for the unit is on our 4L60E parts page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is listed for 1997 and later. Early 1993-1996 units use different parts in several places, so choose an early-year kit for those.
The listing covers the gasket and seal set plus frictions, steels and pistons. A band, bushings and a filter are not called out, so plan to source those if your unit needs them.
A master kit adds frictions to the overhaul gaskets and seals. A super master like this one also includes steel plates and pistons, so every pack is rebuilt with fresh material.
Yes. Reset and run the transmission adaptive relearn with a scan tool so shift timing and pressure are relearned on the new clutches.
Dexron VI ATF. Flush or replace the cooler and lines first so debris from the old failure does not reach the new parts.
