c6 questions
I have a few questions. Im in the process of rebuilding my c6 (78).
!st. The one im rebuilding has a N servo and I have another cracked case with L servo. I want the L servo and would like to know if all I have to do is swap it over to the N case?
2nd. Do I need to take the levers out of the L case and move them over to the N case if I switch it over?
3rd. I bought the TCI Maximizer Rebuild Kits 448905 which came with a
valve body recalibration modifications kit which is made by shift technology. It has no instructions with it on where any of the kit goes in the vavle body. Does anyone know where or how to do this?
4th. How do you get the new bushings in and out of the main case?
Thanks

1. Kinda. You can use the other servo, but you will need to use all parts of it. You must use the same cover as the piston. You cannot mix piston/covers. Also, replace the seals/o-rings, whichever it may have. They should be included in the rebuild kit regardless of the type.
2. No, you don't have to use the same lever in the L-marked servo transmission. You can use any combination of servo/band-lever. R-marked servo is the favorite combined with F or H lever. See this thread on another forum: Lets talk about C6 Servos and Levers
3. You need the instructions. It's likely there are different colors of springs and they go in specific places. Some won't be used depending if you have diesel or gas engine.
4. I used a hammer and punch for removal. Just go nice and slow. You don't want to mar the case. The new bushings must be nice and straight. You can use a press (or ask a shop to do it), or get yourself a piece of 2x4 wood, line it up nice and straight, and hammer lightly. This requires some skill. Luckily, the bushings are pretty cheap if you bend one out of shape.
