This happened in 1993 for trucks, vans, and SUVs, and 1994 for rear wheel drive passenger cars . In 1996, a bolt - on bell housing was phased in (along with a six - bolt tailhousing) for S - 10 Trucks and S - 10 Blazers and beginning in 1998 for all other applications . Beginning in 1998 a new 300mm torque converter with improved higher - capacity internals, 300mm style input shaft, and 300mm style pump was also introduced on models coupled to a Gen III Small Block . The 4L60E is rated to handle up to 360 ft lbf (488 N m) of torque . It weighs 133 pounds without transmission fluid . </P> <P> The 4L60E family of transmissions use 2 shift solenoids, initially called Shift Solenoid A & Shift Solenoid B, later changed to comply with OBD II (On Board Diagnostics revision 2) regulations to 1 - 2 Shift Solenoid & 2 - 3 Shift solenoid . By activating and deactivating the solenoids in a predetermined pattern by the PCM, 4 distinct gear ratios can be achieved . The shift solenoid pattern, also sometimes referred to as solenoid firing order, is as follows; </P>
