Extra Capacity Tranny Pan, Worth It?
Extra Capacity Tranny Pan, Worth It?
Just like the topic says is it worth it? My stock pan is will not quit leaking (I think it is bent) so I am just going to get a new pan. Also does anyone know where I can get new bolts as well?
A high-capacity pan will help keep the trans cool, which for a 700-R4 is a very good thing. It's gonna cost a little ground clearance (depending on which one you get) but it's definitely better than a stock pan.
Bolts you can find at any hardware store.....just take an old one with you to match 'em up.

i deffinitly recomend the deeper transmission pans. i've found the transmission fluid temps are actually lower with a deeper pan than using an average size transmission fluid cooler. i've been doing alot of testing with the 700r4, 4l60, and 4l60e's over the last 2 years with my own and other's i've worked on/built and found the deeper pan is one of the best mods of any.
If you already bent your Pan and it is leaking, I would be cautious about getting a deep tanny pan. If you insist, make sure it is stamped steel and NOT Cast Aluminum. Reason, Steel will bend and the cast aluminum will crack ( major fulid loss). Just some advice. There are PRO & CON on this subject.
