LSA supercharger could BREAK MY TRUCK unless I fix these two things

- I cant go full throttle with my LSA single cab silverado until I fix these two things. When I first test drove my truck after installing the supercharger, I realized there were two major problems that could get a lot worse unless I took action right away. The issues were wheel hop and the stock 4l60e transmission. Thankfully, I already had the parts on-hand to cure both problems, but they needed to be installed right away before I broke something. The COPO truck is a 2000 Chevy Silverado single cab 4wd stepside that I'm turning into the ultimate sport truck, if GM could have built it this way. Think of it as a GM lightning or a full size syclone, or a single cab silverado SS, but either way, it will be a fun, light weight, traction machine.

Now that the wheel hop is cured and the trans has a fighting chance, its time to take this truck to full throttle!
Time to find the next weak link
@@andrewgrabo809 Maybe we should start a poll. Winner gets the broken parts :) I'm gonna say rear ring/pinion gears.
@@oldcoot3459 i say the tires
The truck sounds incredible!!!
Exactly, people don't realize what all that hop does to the drivetrain
Neighbors: HEY HONEY, THAT LAWRENCE BOY TAKING OFF THE BED AGAIN!
I’m sure they all just shake their heads in disbelief
Thanks for the shoutout Lawrence!!! I enjoy watching your channel as well and these caltracs are going to help the truck a bunch!! Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!!
thank you for putting out informative content! love your channel
"I use anti-seize like Frank's red hot" lmao 🤣
This is so inspiring me to start putting my LQ4 in my 77 C10 and boosting it. Mmmmmm..
I put an electronic shift kit on my 96 ford shortbox and what a difference that thing made.
Best 50 usd go fast part i ever bought.
it had a 3 position switch street, strip and off.
you could already feel it in street mode and in strip it was neck snappingly crisp almost harsh and would aggrevate a sore neck if you had one.
the best part was it installed from the outside to the electrical plug and was done in less than an hour!
If you're pulling beds often, a simple lumber jig that lifts from the underside of the bed rails might come in handy.
Great content as usual. Can't wait to see some big, smoky burnouts in this truck!
That would normally work, but the stepside beds on this generation of truck don't have any inner bed rails.
I love your truck and how you built it. Your truck is now the new dream truck. Thanks for the content. Very good videos.
I was going to say that gold shim and the notches grinded in the servo are from a shift kit, but it looks like you figured that out too!
It's odd to me that someone installed the shift kit but not the upgraded servo too.
@@RandomGuyDan No, not necessarily.
I know that this episode isn't about your exhaust but DANG 👍👍👍 every angle of this video showcase's your exquisite exhaust system. BIG kudos for seeing it through to perfection 😊
Hey thanks! I’m really happy with how it turned out
Cal tracks looks smoooooth.
I noticed the background of the area you live. I used to go shooting all over that area. I drove my 68 stepside that I put a Muncie m22, a 350 horse 327, and upgraded the brakes to 76 chevy disc's. Always been into trucks since we go a 78 luv truck to drive to work and high school. Love what you do for us all.
More better is more better! Liking that exhaust rumble. I also like the truck lineup in the parting shot. Extra Large, Large, and fun sized!
You do great work, and all by yourself. All of us that do work on our own trucks know the value of having someone to pass that wrench to you, respect.
Excellent use of an old milk can to steady the bed for removal!
This is what I need I have a 5.3 with a 4l80 with 2200 stall and 410 gears with a truetrac posi nothing but wheel hop when I turn and power is not planted to the floor. Awesome vid man!!! Great job keep up the great work thanks for showing
It's nice seeing the last few Videos dealing with this truck. I'm going longer hangers today and, will be doing the same mods overall, although mine is a 2005 2500 HD. I have Helper Air bags and plan to relocate them and install an Onboard compressor with a tad bit of automation, for towing and such... still looking for the right 6.0 to build out of the truck and swap it in.
The stable is coming together nicely
you can save the tranny by massively reducing the timing curve during shifts in the tune. This will result in the engine "bogging" down during the shift but will save the tranny. You should only have to do this for the 1/2 and 2/3 shifts. This will also help mitigate breaking the tires loose during sifting on the street during full throttle acceleration.
I drink everytime you say "BUT"
that could be dangerous!
Nice job looks easy enough ,I’m thinking about picking up a Vette servo now for my 03 Silverado ,thanks to you 👍🏼
You should look into the oil udder, helps with removing the oil filters. No mess all over the hands. I picked one up this year and have used it twice. Such an improvement.
You would be the coolest neighbor to have. Keep it up love your work.
As close as the rear is to the frame (my truck was the same distance) I highly recommend a under the bed weld in c-notch.
I feel your pain man. I put a bigger turbo on my fiesta and drove it for like a week without doing any wot pulls bc I didn’t have a tune for it yet. So hard and depressing to stay out of it lol
The quality and the editing of your videos are fantastic and other people should pay attention to how you do them
I appreciate that!
Liked the Corvette servo part, recently had my 4l60 overhauled/stage 1 and shop also used this servo 👍
i remember doing the corvette servo in my 83 camaro 700r4 you are right what a pain in the but, laying on your back trying to get it in and out.
Great video, LT. Can’t wait until you can put your foot into it. I’m anxious to see how she responds. Thanks for sharing!!
99% of the time I'm working on stuff in the garage I have no use for my press but damn is it a life saver to have one when you need it.
I agree, its one of things that saves you so much time and effort
Next time you head north, Please stop by I would love to show you my trucks
The corvette shift servo is a must for any 4l60 or 700r4, without it the trans lingers for a long time in-between the 1-2 shift.
I put one of those servos in my 05 Canyon 5 cylinder with a 4L60E. It was mostly stock but I did tune it and it would chirp 2nd gear!
I remember years ago seeing this rear control arm/torque tube setup with sliding leafspring shackles.
I was starting to think I was the only one that used anti seize on everything. I live on the east coast so everything rusts from the salt. I see so many people not use it in places I definitely would.
Third times a charm
PRECISION
TRANSMISSION
Looked at it 3 times
1 out 3 aint bad
I watch their stuff, that is a smart group of guys and they build some awesome transmissions.
cant wait to see the dyno pulls
👋👍🏻💯✔⭐👨🔧
me too!
The 2-4 servo had a shim in it, good to go, as long as it's not to tight. The shim just tightens the pin movement. Less pin travel for quicker apply.. There's a shift kit for sure, they ground part of the servo.
Coming along nicely LT. Keep
Up the good work!
Thanks!
Never thought to pull the bed off light that!
I appreciate your shameless plug for a particular hot sauce 👍
Haha…
I love that timelapse tune, I've used that one in a few of my videos as well as Violet Vape by the same composer👍
VIolet vape really gets the head nodding lol
You make it look so easy keep up the great work!
the gold ship tightens up the 4th gear apply. The band activates the 2nd and 4th
The vette servo is such an easy mod I wish I did it years earlier. Now it’s all billet parts and a crazy billet servo cap from Robert Godfrey
can't wait to see this truck rip!!
GM staggered the rear shocks because to keep the rear from hopping. They found this out with the 1967 Camaro Z28. That’s why they had a factory traction bar on one side of the rear. In 1968 they staggered the rear shocks and took away the traction bar.
Gotta find me a step side truck now.
But first I will be installing a Corvette servo in my Skylark project.
Wait til you're hard on the skinny pedal, it's not about how hard it hits it's about how tight it holds the band. Second gear climb feels so much stronger than a smaller servo, because the band actually slips on the drum
Love ur videos
It would be bad a$$ if u get out the conform zone and build something like a coyote single cab short bed or an RT ram
I bet it would bring lot more audience I’m not a brand fan I just love trucks Ford Chevy Dodge it doesn’t matter as long as it’s a truck I like em all
Great video LT!
That shim is definitely not OEM. I built 4L60s for over 10 years for a reman company. Trans-go uses the shim to take a little travel out of the function just makes the timing of the apply better. It's looking good!
The shim was on my truck too when I did it and my truck was bone stock original trans so whats going on then?
@@chrishansen7004 OK again it's not an OE part. Have you had the truck since it was new? In the OE world the pin is selective for length that gives the right adjustment. In the field having the exact pin length is not always available, hence shims to adjust. Go find the transgo information sheet and you'll be more informed of what transgo gives to the builder to be able to get the correct adjustment.
great choice of music.
Hey man idk if you since have worked on your trans more. But sonnax performance is amazing. I put everything they had available for the valve body and there super servo and it's night and day difference! Also unless you have hp tuners and simple cheap hypertec unit can adjust your trans shifts slightly. But considering everything else you have a tuner or access to one.
I pulled the 60 out and swapped in an 80e a while after this video was done, but the 60e held in there like a champ
@@LawrenceTolman yea when you add a cooler and servo and a sonax or transgo kit they do way beter the damned plastic actuators are a fatal flaw. But the sonnax parts for the 80 would do wonders
I’m pretty sure the shims are there for adjustment of the servo pin ,I believe it is supposed to have 3/8” of inward play with your crowbar.
Looks awesome would love to have a power adder
its a ton of fun.
Can't wait to see an all out pedal stomp!

Cal tracs always great to deal with. Buy direct is my advice.
Just a heads up anti-seize is not a good lubricant. It's for the threads.
It does dry out and become stiff.
I understand it's not a show truck, but I'm getting anxiety watching you install new parts on that rusty chassis 😬
I know, I have to close my eyes when I look at it lol
I'm running leaf spring clamps get some !!
I put those on my other truck for a while, and they worked pretty good
dam man your bad influence every time i watch a video about your COPO makes me want to sell my ccsb lb7 to start my own COPO build haha
My next “copo” build would be a Duramax 1500 2wd
great content enjoyed the video
Great video, really excited to see wide open pulls, and dyno run... any chance u can spoil what color the wrap is gonna be?
Same color as my first truck lol
So what u r saying is we r gonna have to wait huh. I hope it turns out great...
Are you able to post the ac delco part number of the corvette part?
Hey great project. One of my favorite builds. Great channel. When are you going to get your shop and a lift and get off the ground?
The single biggest achievement in this video is the fact you somehow managed to keep the gas cap on the ledge on the bed. Hahaha
I know, I saw that after the fact and was surprised it didn’t fall off as I wheeled the bed out
The shim isnt needed with the corvette servo
Its to help the 1 2 shift time
Next time you do a service and drop the pan theres a couple tweeks for that trans
Watch
Performance Transmissions video for auto info
Lots of 4l60e tweaks without removing trans
Once you have one valve body r and r behind you automatics are cake
Easier than pie that is
Have you taken a look at the BTR Truck Norris cam? That's the cam I'm going with in my 5.3.
I’ve heard that if you use the corvette servo you should use the shim from the shift kit. Something about not enough movement of the piston to release the band.
The Corvette servo just increases the surface area that the fluid pushes on, firming up the shift. If the spring inside it is stock you should not need a shim.
Awsome work
It was a really dumb move by GM not to use the “Vette” servo in trucks that pull and tow. I installed it in my work truck simply because I despise mushy shifting auto boxes and it helps with durability. So far, 245K on my 4L60e.
I see a TG shift kit shim in the servo line up...did you install a TG SK ?
This truck is cool:)
I noticed that you used copper anti-seize in the leaf spring bushings. Be careful doing this, as anti-seize contains silica (an abrasive) and although it feels slippery, should not be used as a lubricant as it can wear mating components.
I have a stock 4.8 in a 2006 Crew cab that's got a Belltech drop, I saw this and instantly subbed because I badly want to force fed the lethargic 4.8... Man, I have GOT to know what you do for the 4L60 to 4L80 conversion...
thanks! I made a video a while back showing all the parts for a 4l60 to 4l80 swap, and I'll of course show the process when the time comes
@@LawrenceTolman I've been binge watching your content, I live up in Ogden. I got soooo many questions. Man, you're basically doing what I'm researching doing. Love it!
I like your Channel I like your truck truck. I have a 98 C 1500 WT series short box a lot of times when I'm going to stop it just has a whole lot of Bounce in the back I'll check the brakes I've had the brakes looked at is there any other thing I could check to see why it bounces. Thank you
I hope your 4L60 doesn’t end up on Precision Transmission’s channel.
Lookin awesome!
I had a issue with my driverside leaf spring being more warn then the passenger. Caused one side to sag a full inch.
Just do the h2d shift kit in the 80e before install. Along with sunco clutch packs
Why trash a good trans when you can just do it first and be done
yup, I have the shift kit which will go in before the trans does
How’s the angle on the rear end yoke
I was told the pointed tip of that Servo needs to be a specific distance away from the contact point and changing that distance changes shifting characteristics I think it might be the time delay between gears what are your thoughts
you are correct, the pin does have to be the correct length. On my truck, the "delay" you might hear when shifting is actually the torque management pulling timing to help the transmission shift and not slip
nice video
I would love to make my 1st Gen Avalanche like this truck
Why no holes drilled into the inner piece compressed with bench vice?
Sandblast and spraypaint the frame with bed off.
C-notch and slam it! Coi lovers- YAY!
I don’t like the band adjustment shim it’s almost never needed if you check the assembly correctly
When you did the front drop hangers, did you check the pinion angle? When I did the Belltech hangers on my 01, I had to add some shims to correct the pinion angle. I have zero vibration or wheel hop. The shims actually came with my kit - it was shackles, hangers, shims, for a 4" drop in the rear.
yes, I did dial in the pinion angle with the drop hangers, I believe I have a four degree shim in there. didn't do anything for wheel hop though
@@LawrenceTolman - it must be the difference in power then. Mine makes around 350-360 rw, plus the lower numerical 1st gear of my 4L80E. The 3.06 1st gear of your 60E + 4.30s and 150 or so more hp/tq makes the difference.
While you were at it, you should have fabricated and installed another exhaust...humor here, or at least an attempt.
Haha… It’s time for another exhaust on something
Nice.
If u ever need a real torque converter look up my guy, "art" with TCR Torque Converter Rebuilders. Out of North Las Vegas
What size exhaust do you have and what name mufflers do you have?
How much did you drop it in the front and back?
My bad
Performance

I see you’re using a pf61 instead of the 46
What is the part # for that taller oil filter?
Would happen to remember the part # for the cal trac kit?
your shifting at 6700 rpm?? maybe I need to turn mine up a little :)
