- Before you blab...speedometer is 10% slow and I know these arent "fast".... this is just to show its new acceleration under LIGHT throttle application with 35's. I'm reaching 50 mph that quick in a truck with 35's by giving it VERY little throttle...its impressive...versus it short shifting like crazy all the time and being a sluggish dog...definitely woke up the transsmission in this sleeping beast. I'd say it is a MUST with oversized tires.
Yeah they normally just shift a little sluggish and late on the 1-2 shift when stock. this cleans it right up
yep. its still running great. it accelerates fantastically for a lifted truck. it's down to almost a 7 second 0-60. not bad. let that l33 breath and it runs awesome. just have to make sure you install the servo properly. only $17. by far the best upgrade i did and it just so hapen to be the cheapeast and easieat of them all...a must have for a lifted gas chevy, especially if it isn't regeared.
Damn solid shifts
Nice bro thanks for the video. I have an 06 Silverado with 35s and I regeared mine to 456. I’m going to install the Corvette servo next. LOL I did not realize how old is video was
What brand did you go with for the gears?
@@ianramirez3364 Yukon
Good video man this truck shift a little sluggish 1-2 Ima do my install on mine also on my GMC
I see your ABS, and Brakes light are on on guages. FYI they work with the TCM as well on shift characteristics and operations 😁
I just got my Silverado tuned 4.8 (LTH, CAI, true dual x-pipe no cats) the guy really did some magic with the trans tune it’s about like yours is except he increased the line pressures so it shifts hard I imagine I’d chirp the tires wot on the 1-2 shift if I did a corvette servo
they are like $20 and you can get them online from a company called oregon performance. pay close attention on how to put it in
Question, when purchasing did you only purchase the servi piston for roughly $25 or did you also grab the pin and overdrive servo. Thanks
so will this speed up the shifts going up hill make it move thru gear sooner ?
Hey Cameron, How many km on your stock tranny when you did the vette servo upgrade? and what else if anything did u also do with it? Thanks
I just did covervette servo, ab solenoids & I still have a 1-2 shift delay. Pinless accumulator & 3-2 shift solenoid are next . Fingers crossed
Beto’s garage have you fixed your issue ?
Any luck?
Really nice video; less than WOT shifts look very nice. I think I will do this mod. did you tune? You gonna fix your ABS module next? lol..
Yeah i fixed THAT ABS issue. I had a wheel bearing going out. I didn't know that would cause your ABS to act up but obviously it does. Recently switching to 37's my ABS light comes on momentarily everytime I romp on it. I've been told with these GM's once you go beyond 35's it plays with the ABS computer a little and there isn't really a fix. Oh well...I dont mind a little light flashing when I stomp on it 🤷♂️
Oh and coach bob. I do not have a tune yet.....I'm gonna go with a custom black bear tune here soon. It sounds like they are the king with chevys. $300 for a custom tune and free to change anything later on...you just have to pay the deposit for the module every time you do but you get it all back.
I'm about to start building a 98 tahoe or Yukon (looking at two different rig) what year corvette does it come from? Do you have a part number? I'm gonna be pulling the engine right away to have it rebuilt and do some work to so I am gonna hey a transmission built while the engines out. I'm shooting towards 425-450 hp, nothing crazy. Thanks!
It is a brand new part from Oregon Performance (you can find them online) It will fit into any 4L60E and it just makes the transmission run more aggressive. After the install my truck is night and day more lively and more responsive.
What gears are in your truck? I have a 06 with 3.42s and I have 33s on it. Its a dog with the stock tires and really a dog with 33s. I am tuned with a airaid mit and exhaust. mine shifts into second way too fast and it lugs in 2nd and the 2nd to 3rd shift is really soft and sometimes too early. I am thinking about putting in this servo and then going to 4.56 gears. A friend of mine had a 05 with 4.10s from the factory and it was really impressive for a half ton truck with the stock 265 tires.
T-Bub86 yeah 3.42s arent conducive to making power... these are 3.73 in mine....it is a dog right off the line with 35's but once it hits 15-20 mph it has plenty of power. and I would highly recommend this servo for you then....before I put this in, my transmission would shift way earlier than stock, and way earlier than you "want it to"....half throttle down and it doesn't even run through the gear at all before it shifts....the tires throw off the ratio s bad....the servo will clear almost all of that up for you....this $20 is without a doubt the best upgrade I did....it runs like a hotrod truck now if you want it to...light throttle it drives like a truck with stock tires....as soon as you start feeding it some gas, it gets up...just make sure you out the servo in correctly....look on RUclips for tutorials...
4.56 is too high
So the Corvette servo helps with that terrible Bang from first to second that I feel when I'm just stepping off the line easily with my truck. It will hold the gear longer even if I'm not hopping on it is that the idea?
A little, I've been told it could be a worn piston inside the accumulator body. Easily replaced when dropping the transmission Pan. 3 bolts, you can buy a complete assembly for about $40 or rebuild yours for about half. Factory has a plastic piston you can upgrade to an aluminum piston. Also I then told change 1-2 &3-4 shift solenoid. Also easily accessible when you drop the Pan So with these 2 upgrades and new shift solenoids. Are often done together to a dress these issues we seem to experience with that 1st to 2nd gear slam. Hope this helps as I am planning on doing mine as soon as the weather breaks 40ﾟ.
How many miles were on your truck when you installed the servo? How many miles have you put on it since the install?
Jeffrey Teal I put it on with about 150,000 miles and it has 162,000 now. it's held up great. shifts consistent
I added that to mine with a shift kit as well but at around 40
To 50 mph it seems like it doesn’t know what gear to be in if I’m barley on the throttle any ideas?
Tune or actual regear
Make sure u aren't experiencing
transmission shudder 1st before tuning or regear
Yeah I don't have any recommendation on that. Mine behaves and drives almost like a totally stock truck under 50mph and light to medium throttle input. Of course the gears are taller because of the tire size so it takes longer to wind through the gears, but otherwise it feels stock. If I stomp it at 55. It will still drop in 1st HARD (and even spin them on a wet road at 55, especially if any corner is involved getting squirly and sideways in which I have video of such if you guys want to see that) Granted, its a wet road... But still pretty impressive to see a lifted 5.3 break 35"s loose at close to 60 mph.
@@cameronwelch78 ended up being the tc solenoid and one other
@@cameronwelch78 what year is your truck?
Is there any change in your gas mileage?
Yeah its really nice. short shifting is gone. with a 4l60e and stock tires, I don't have any complaints except the 1-2 shift being sloppy. but with bigger tires this is a MUST. makes the 4l60e just aggressive enough to compensate for the tires on shifting.
And idk what's up with the ABS. The front driver tire wanted to actuate making my brake pedal fade coming up to a stop (and almost rear end people) I've been told replacing the wheel bearing can do the trick, or dirty ABS sensor. but I don't much care so I just pulled the ABS fuse LOL I don't need ABS but I'll fix it eventually. I can barely lock the tires up with 35's unless I'm in the rain. I don't drive like an asshole or tailgate so not having ABS doesn't really effect me much.
I was going to have it installed but the mechanic said it would shift hard ???
Yes it shifts harder but in a good way...if you hot rod your truck at all, or tow heavy loads, it is the part for you....its basically like putting in a shift kit. It lengthens the shift and makes it more firm (and gets rid of the sloppy 1-2 shift the 4l60/65e is notorious for and is bad long term) the more firm shifting equals less slipping on your clutch plates when shifting. Granted, I have oversized tires which tames it down a little but it is not too firm by any means, it drives like stock when driving normal, but as soon as you start getting into it all at the shift firms up. Best $25 I have ever spent and the best upgrade that showed the most results versus thousands of dollars on other upgrades.
Did it take a little while for the shifting to settle in after it was installed?
No the firmness of the shift has stayed even today. It drives the same as it did. The larger tires tame down the firmness, and I would say it makes the truck accelerate, drive, and the shifts points feel exactly like "stock" even though you are running much larger tires. With stock sized tires at WOT people say with the corvette servo they chirp tires going into second, kinda like putting in a shift kit. Mine definitely isn't quite that fir. with big tires though. It just behaves and has as much throttle response as a stock truck under 50mph.
so basically it stays closer to the power band for longer?
Yes. Exactly....with less throttle input. With bigger tires I really had to give it half throttle or more to get it to use the gear properly before short shifting and get up to speed...now it takes 1/4 at most and it can get up to speed no problem
I want this on my transmission, do you know if this work on a 08 4l60e?
Yes, it will work with all 4l60e trans.
Yes any 4l60e it will work with....just make sure you follow the instructions and check out the few RUclips videos I found on here before I did it. You have to make sure to keep certain things in the same direction when you put them back in. Total install was like 30 minutes. And you have to add about 1 quart of fluid after because almost 1 quart drops out when you open it up.
Nice vid man thanks for posting.everything still holding up just fine? Also did u trip any lights on the dash or require any type of tune to do this?
Kolour Blind nope. hasn't caused any problems at all.
Nope. It hasn't tripped anything. Just an amazing running $20 part that took 30 minutes and a quart of trans fluid to install and it was probably the part the made the biggest difference to my truck hands down....It REALLY woke it up....I HIGHLY recommend it for any chevy truck if you want it to run more aggressive, but with big tires it just makes it run basically identical to how it did stock if you arent re-geared yet when under 50 mph..
That vibration would be intolerable
Want your trucks ball joints fall out any day now? just add 4 huge tires and reverse rims!!!
Does this trip a check engine light?
No...adding larger tires on a chevy can trip a check engine light though.
which cold air intake do you run?
I'm actually just running the cheap SPECTRE CAI from oreillys for $170. It made a difference for sure. It definitely became more peppy off the line and became a little more responsive. Enough to feel anyway. And the reviews I read weren't bad. They claim their filtration is still great to pretty much the same as K & N but without the price. Now a days going with a company like K & N half the cost is going to just buying the name in my opinion.
Does it affect MPG at all?
ebaysnipa In a word no it will not affect mpg to any extent. What it does is apply more pressure in 2nd gear. That translates to less slippage going into second gear, extending the life of the trans. Second (and fourth) gear applies the band which is a notorious weak point.
That still shifts so soft haha, i just installed a b@m stage 2 shift kit and the thing shifts hard like whip lash into 2nd chirps the tires, 3rd is not as good but its better then stock, i also installed a B@m kick down kit for 4th gear like they have in corvette models, it iliminates kick down in to third at full throdal, i had the thing up to 200kms not milies an hr im in Canada lol, 1991 gmc siearra th700r4 transmission, sure wakes up the truck i was thinkin about puttin in a corvette servo just like that too
What do you mean by a quarter throttle ?
Are you for realzies?
25 cents worth of throtty
where can I get one and how much???
you might have had a deflective servo to begin with. if ur happy. let it ride
my truck came with 3.73 stock gears, I installed 35" tires but now it feels sluggish. should I go with 4.56 gears or maybe go for the 4.88?? later, I'm planning on going with 37" tires since my truck is lifted. thanks for any advice!
4.56 should be plenty for 35-37" tires. if you want to get to the nitty gritty, 35" tires are 10% larger than the stock tires it comes with. so 4.11's are exactly 10% lower gearing so that would put you back to stock gearing. but it still might be a tad slugger than stock because although you have fixed the ratio, the tires still weigh 30-40 lbs more than stock. my buddy had the 4.8L vortec with 35"s and 4.56 and he said they were perfect, could spin tire no problem and had plenty of power. so 4.56 should probably be great with 35-37"
Sgt Tanguma I would stick with 4.56 gears
35" tires are 11% bigger than stock
37" tires are 16% bigger than stock
but 4.56 gears are a 22% correction/change compared to stock. meaning with 37% tires, you'd still be geared 6% lower than stock.
plus the higher the pinion ratio, the less tooth contact you have with the pinion. a lot higher chance of blowing something out with 5.10s as opposed to 4.56
i would say 4.88 to help offset the added weight, autos usually have taller OD gears than the manual transmissions anyway
Dude, it’s time to replace the oil pickup tube o-ring. Trust me, it makes a HUGE difference.
Yeah I changed the oil pick up tube o-ring but here is the funny thing. It originally read 30psi+ but I was having lifter tick so I changed it... I changed the o-ring and I haven't had any lifter tick but now at idle it reads like 10 psi and when driving, it doesn't get above like 30 psi at WOT. My ticking problems are gone, but my oil pressure definitely seems low. (Too low for my preference). The GM book says as low as 8 psi is "okay". I'm rebuilding the engine later this year so it just has to make it that far and it's getting a melling pump.
@@cameronwelch78 the gauge cluster is a known problem too. Get an actual gauge direct to the oil system.
U should regear
you're an idiot.....all this does (and all I was showing) is how much easier it is to accelerate because it holds the gear just a little longer and makes the transmission run just a little more aggressive....but that is when you WANT it to....you don't have to run it like I was showing in the video. it is still mild mannered but as soon as you start feeding it some good gas, it holds the gear longer....dont be a fucking troll and a dumbass.
You need a bigger engine. 5.3 turning 35 inch tires...try a s10 with a 350 vortec and corvette servo installed into built 4l60e on 32x11.5 k02 the fucker just rips
2001s40R lol.... all you need is to change your ring and pinion out to to compensate for the tires you have......4.11 gears would put me back to stock gearing......4.56 would put more with even more torque than stock but my gears would be higher...meaning my first gear would only rev to 35 mph...but I would have all the torque I could ever need with a 5.3....after all the upgrades is almost got more than enough power now...I could use a little bit of gearing though mmm down to a 7.5 0-60 on 35's
My sonoma has 3.23 gears and will do 0-60 in 8 seconds and i consider that slow
Chris Henry it's all about power and gearing. a v8 putting out 350-400 horses is plenty of power for most applications. but even with that you can't expect it to propel a full size 6000 lb truck to 60 in less than about 7.5-8. seconds. a Sonoma with a 350 should haul ass.
The L31r 350 vortec only puts out 240 hp and 340 tq. The sonomas fast, especially with the corvette servo, but the 3.23 gears dont accelerate as fast as I want to. Once the trucks up around 3000rpm its insane but takes a second or two too long to get to the power in my opinion.
2001s40R you are a moron....
