• Failure to follow these rules may result in your threads being locked, deleted, or moved. Depending on the severity of your actions, or frequency of your actions, your user account could be suspended or banned. These rules are to help protect both buyer and seller.


    1. CONSOLIDATE all of your for sale items into ONE thread only. This means there will be NO making multiple sales threads for different items regardless if the parts are related or not.

    2. PRICE IS REQUIRED. We do not permit ads without an asking price for each item. "Best Offer" is not an allowable substitute for posting a price. You may ask for $1 but a price must be listed regardless. If a price is not listed with in the first 24 hours of making your sale thread IT WILL BE LOCKED or DELETED. Once a price is listed a bidding war is not permitted. If the seller gets an offer that meets his asking price, the seller should honor the asking price and sell for that amount.

    3. EBAY LINKS AND OTHER LINKS. We allow links to ebay ads, but you MUST have a buy-it-now price posted, or an asking price to stop the auction in your ad here (Not just in the link). If it is from another site or from here, do not use a link but post the full text instead with pictures if you have them listed. If a BIN price is not posted, then your thread will be DELETED.

    4. CITY / STATE are required info for each ad. Information must be posted in the first post of thread, NO EXCEPTIONS. Buyers and sellers reserve the rights to privately ask for full contact information on any purchase or sale. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    5. NO TWO PARTY SALES. This means no more "I'm selling for a friend" posts and will be deleted immediately with no notice. Seller assumes all responsibility of anything they post for sale.

    6. NO FEELER THREADS. You are either selling it or you aren’t selling it.

    7. POST COUNT AND/OR TIME LIMIT. We are requesting that you spend some time with us before you start a For Sale thread. A pre-determined minimum number of posts will be required or 1 year since creating the account + an intro thread (just so we know you aren’t the Prince of Africa). Any for sale thread posted out of the For Sale section to circumvent the rules will result in being deleted. Those who do meet the criteria and post outside the section will have their thread moved, constant violation of this will result in an infraction.

    8. NO BUMPING OR TT’ing YOUR THREAD MORE THAN ONCE IN 48 HOURS. Don’t worry your thread will still be a bold read until a user reads it and if people are really interested they will let you know. Post warning will be issued if in violation and on the 3rd warning, the thread will just be locked.

    9. NO THREAD DUMPING OR I DON’T LIKE YOUR PRICE. Don’t post in a person’s thread just to tell them they are too high, either move along and say nothing or throw an offer to them. The person can sell it at whatever price they think someone is willing to pay. Offenders will be issued a warning, if it is a constant issue then an infraction will be issued.

    10. KEEP YOUR THREAD UP TO DATE. This is really for your benefit, so you don’t get 10 PMs asking if you still have it when you already sold it.

    11. NO WEAPONS. As Admins we have determined that no weapons will be allowed to be sold, this includes knives, guns and anything else deemed a weapon (even if its a wall hanger only). We ask that if you want to sell these items you seek out the appropriate websites elsewhere to do so.

    12. Pictures are REQUIRED. Pictures of all items for sale. This is to help BOTH seller and buyer. As a seller it is MUCH easier to sell something if you have pictures of it. As a buyer you feel better seeing exactly what you are buying. Pictures should contain the item/s for sale and a sign of some kind that has your username on it. 24 hour notice will be given, if you do not comply your post will be DELETED.

    FRAUD & RISK. Buy and Sell at your own risk. Grand Prix Forums and its staff are not responsible if someone rips you off or doesn't send parts out in a timely manner. This classifieds section is a free service for the community, and it is YOUR responsibility to handle all transactions in a low-risk method. DO NOT contact us if there is a dispute between you and someone else, we are NOT INVOLVED. You can help minimize fraud risk by doing these suggestions:

    Pay using PAYPAL, using a credit card. This way, if a part does not arrive, you can do a charge back through your credit card company. If you gift it, then you have no recourse to get your money back when things fall through. Pay the 3% and have the buyer protection. Using someone else's paypal and gifting to pay for goods is violating Paypal's Terms of Service.



    Always ask for full name, residential address, phone numbers of both buyers and sellers. An honest seller should have no problem disclosing this info to you privately.


    Shipping things C.O.D. is risky. Try to use UPS or Fedex, so that you can track shipments. Have someone sign for it if it is expensive.


    Ask for references from other members, hopefully from other members who have been registered for longer than one year and are active here.


    Use your gut feeling. If something seems too good to be true, or a seller/buyer seems a little shady, don't take the risk.

    TIPS:
    -Post pictures: with mobile phones these days and auto uploads, it’s not even really hard anymore. Have it automatically drop in Photobucket, grab the Img tag link and paste it in.

    -Give good contact information if you aren’t going to be on here a lot.

    -If you are going to disappear for an extended time (vacation, time in jail, what have you), then give us a quick note that you aren’t going to be around. People will trust you a little more.

    -Look around and gauge your price with other items. Just cause you bought it for $1000, doesn’t mean it’s now worth $1,200 or even the original $1,000. You are free to ask what ever you want, but an item that is priced right will sell quicker.
  • The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Overhauled 4T65E-HD '97-'02 * GPF Price - $900 or trade

Solving problems
Hey guys. Selling another trans. Trying to fund a new motor for the '84 truck. The text is pretty much copy/pasted from the craigslist add. That's why it's so generic. Feel free to post questions right here.

Paypal preferred. $900 F/F or $930 G/S + shipping, but I'll build the crate for free.

Located in Tucson. 85747


Paste:
I am selling an "overhauled" or "refreshed" 4t65e-hd transmission. This is perfect for someone on a tight budget who doesn't want to take a chance on a used junkyard unit.

Background:
This transmission was pulled from a car I bought to flip knowing the trans was broken. Because I bought the car private sale, I got to talk to the previous owner and get a full history. He stated that one day it lost reverse, then shortly thereafter (couple days) it lost forward as well.

Once disassembled, I immediately found the problem. It had a had part failure. What I saw matched perfectly with what the previous owner experienced. I have kept those failed parts, and would be happy to show them. Everything else looked great. Based on what I saw, I could tell it had been previously rebuilt not too long ago. That's why I decided to "overhaul" and not do a full rebuild.

My overhaul includes:
Replacement of the failed components (I can show you those pieces)
Complete dis-assembly of the unit
Complete dis-assembly and cleaning of the valve body
Complete dis-assembly and cleaning of the channel plate
Thorough inspection of every piece and assembly to insure it's within specification

Replace EVERY seal and gasket
New washer kit
New molded 2nd piston
New molded 3rd piston
New large pan magnet
Install shift improver kit
Tighten 2nd clutch pack (Improvement over stock)
Tighten 3rd clutch pack (Improvement over stock)
Recondition the input piston

Plus some other minor tweaks I've learned doing these.

The only thing preventing me from calling it a full rebuild is, I reused the bushings, clutches, steels and electronics. I can tell, based on their condition, they were not that old and certainly not abused. If you want new solenoids, I'd be happy to toss them in for what they cost me.

I can ship anywhere there's a Fastenal. I shipped one to Minnesota for $150, and one to Las Vegas for under $100 using Fastenal freight. I can also deliver anywhere in Tucson for some gas money.

I will take cash, but would prefer a trade. Looking for:

'98-'00 5.7 drop out (engine, harness and computer) from Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado, Sierra... Plus cash my way. I would have to confirm what works with my tuning software.

or

'00-up 5.3 or 6.0 drop out from just about any GM pickup or full size van... Plus cash your way.

Full disclosure... Top picture is of the actual transmission for sale. Bottom picture is of one I did previously, just as a place holder. That case is in fact, bare. One of the benefits of living in the southwest. No corrosion.

I will post a picture of the actual transmission for sale once complete. It won't look exactly the same, but I promise it's just as clean. If you follow any of the work I've done, you know how fussy I am. This transmission is getting the same attention to detail.

I can text pictures to anyone interested if you'd like to see anything in particular while it's still open. Just send a PM.

Just got done working the VB. This is going to be an even better deal for someone... Turns out it has all the Sonnax goodies/upgrades. More proof that it's been recently rebuilt:

and proof that I completely disassembled and cleaned the VB:

Brandon, how can you tell the previous build didn't have that many miles on it? Why would you re-use the clutches and steels?
Click to expand...

Awesome question! Thanks for asking! (I say, tongue in cheek.) If you look at the picture below I have three second clutch steels. The top steel is what I typically see. Shiny and smooth. To the left is a brand new (thicker 0.090") steel. To the right is a steel from this transmission. You can see, it still has the checkering (or whatever it's called). Barely even shined up.

I should mention, I have all the essential tools for proper inspection and assembly.

I check (and correct) the overall endplay:

And I properly expand and re-size ALL the Teflon rings. No scarf cuts:
