C 6 rebuild

Anyone ever done this. I just got a donor truck that is supposed to have a good one but just in case was wondering if it's possible to rebuild one easily.

Get a book, read it. Then decide if it's something you want to tackle. They aren't a difficult transmission.

Just finished mine and it runs great. Its a pretty typical 3 speed auto. Be sure to check out all your bushings, as well as the gear teeth and that the planets aren't loose on the pinion shafts that they ride on (I had to buy a new foreward planetary carrier and rind gear). Also, be careful with the snap rings for the foreward clutch- they look the same but are different thicknesses. If you revers the one that retains the return spring and the one that retaings the top pressure plate, there will be too much clearance in your clutch pack. One more thing, definately worth it to go through the valve body- the filter on a c6 is a joke, and mine was full of metal shavings and clutch material.

Hope this helps
