From memory the Beast sunshell isn't balanced, the next one up will be. Forget what it's called
Yeah looking at the sonnax smart shell upgrade but have to send away to America as far as can see wanting to find an Australian distributor.

Smart shell? The rear splined section is hardened in those. Supposed to be the way to go as they’re also lightweight.
Yeah sonnax smart shell is there somewhere to get them in Australia or have to buy online from America?

I'd get the tranny pulled down before ordering parts.

What he describes at 6:20 is exactly what happened to me losing forward gears. Pretty interesting video with common faults of 4L60E transmissions.
