Description

GM Heavy Hauler Transmission

The PerformaBuilt Heavy Hauler 4L80E

 Shipped only to Commercial/Business Locations

The unit is disassembled and each part carefully inspected and clearances are measured to meet our specific specifications, not just the maximum clearance allowed by GM.

The case is carefully inspected, cleaned and re-inspected. Then it is coated with a special heat and oil resistant paint, making for a very clean finish and look.

Bushings are replaced and sized as needed to performance specifications.

The intermediate clutch sprag consists of an extreme duty intermediate sprag and roller assembly with specially prepared race and spiral ring to prevent high RPM snap ring release and resulting intermediate clutch failure.

The Forward and Direct clutch friction plates are replaced with heavy duty performance friction plates. The drums are then modified to accept additional friction plates. The apply area itself is altered to allow use of the entire piston area for apply in the forward  and direct drums. These modifications will also result in a much firmer apply into gear from neutral/park to reverse/drive, and durability is significantly increased.

For the intermediate, direct and overdrive clutches we use the High Energy Performance friction plates. These friction plates exceed anything on the market for performance street/strip and heavy duty applications, and are more than suitable for any application.

The intermediate overrun band is replaced with a heavy duty unit. This is extremely valuable in heavy duty truck applications, since this band is used to hold back when the transmission is manually put into 2nd gear while descending steep grades, etc. It will hold up significantly better to engine braking.

The low sprag is replaced with a heavy duty type and the LOW/REVERSE band is replaced with a performance band.

The Pump is carefully inspected and reconditioned for maximum durability and pressure. Special modifications are made to increase cooling and planetary lubrication.

Our own PerformaBuilt shift kit is installed in the valve body. This kit is custom set to the type of unit purchased. The Heavy Duty setup is for maximum hold with minimal “shift shock”, while Performance units are set for a more aggressive race feel, while maintaining a progressive shift that increases in firmness as you add more throttle.”
