Hey Jimmy!

Watched the instruction several times, ordered and received the purple spring, piston and seal cover. Measured about 85mm spacing between the two pan holes for the spring compression tool. Fashioned my compression tool from a piece of metal used to fasten a ceiling light to the junction box. It already had a center threaded area for the compression bolt, and carefully shaped the slotted ends to fit the bolts. Found a couple of long threaded 100mm bolts, and had to find the bolt to fit into the threaded center. Also, after much frustration, bought a real C clip tool from Lowes, Craftsman brand. Releasing the C clip and removing the cover found the purple spring broken in two places. Cleaned out the bore, and re-assembled the accumator with the original yellow spring, replacement new piston, new purple spring and cover, added more trans fluid, and it all works good ! Now I see transmission building pressure (observing the tach), the engine running cooler, soft shifting as expected, and the dip stick level providing ancipated accurate fluid level measurement. Although working upside-down, its much easier that having to replace the entire transmission.

Best video I found on identifying my 4L60E transmission!!!! Thanks!!!!!!

These are amazing man, I wish you would get even more views, you deserve it!

My overdrive wont come lose! Its stuck. I got lose about 1 cm then its a stop. And now i wont even go back 😒 whats wrong?

Great video

When are we going to get the 6r80 tutorial?

what was the valve out of///? i forgert lol

I've been following your video I am going to try and get this fordf700 and when you put it in reverse it kicks out of gear in a hard pull what do I need to do

I am very grateful for the help I received through the videos, I was able to contact him and he helped me troubleshoot a problem. You can't go wrong listening and watching what this guy does to rebuild a 4L60e transmission. He even points out where the weak spots are and what to watch for. Thanks again,

I am so proud you are showing us how to do this I can't stop thanking you enough you are the best I ever seen on you tube to explain everything like you do thank god for you thank you so much 😂

This guy gives me the comfort my peepaw gave me when working on my truck

Sir... I love you

perhaps a stupid question but in the third scenario is it realistic to try to do it with the gearbox in the truck?

Thanks for sharing

Just awesome love it thanks

@TransmissionBench Thank you so much. I couldn't have done it without you Sir. I hope you continue to make more of these

This video is top shelf! This is without a doubt the best i have seen on KZbin. Everything about it is perfect. Thank you for speaking clear and concise and at perfect volume. That's a big issue with me. I only have ¼ of my hearing

I just finished my 4R70W with your video. Thank you so much!

Am about to finish and my cuestion is there in the boxes you have a litle filter where does that one goes .. there besides the center chamber bolts the 3 bolts

So I followed these videos step by step did everything he said but when i went to go start my truck every gear is drive. Even park reverse and neutral. Does anyone know what I might have done wrong or what is wrong with it?

Not sure if this will work, but I have a question for you. I just had the tranny rebuilt in my Dodge Ram. It is a 46RE. The folks that installed it for me put in Dex/Merc fluid rather than +4. They said that they have never noticed much difference between the two, but I am getting the urge to change it out. Can you comment on this situation please? Thanks - Pete.

This guy needs to become a preacher of the the gospels. Thank God for this man!

Torque rating of the bands: 72 in*lbs, then back it out the required amount of turns. He omits this completely, DO NOT just "snug" it like he does.

Transmission Bench is the BOMB !

I have rebuilt 2 transmissions and currently working on my third and I have to say I don't think I could have done it without your help. I will forever be indebted to you for your knowledge and patient style of teaching/explaining. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

25:24 18 N*m = 159 in*pounds, not 100. (I verified in the manual for it to be 17N*m, so who the hell knows).

For those of you who DO NOT have a broken Overdrive Piston Retainer, you DO NOT use an O-Ring/it is not supplied in the kit. The OEM Part # is 52118180, the revised/updated part with the O-Ring is Part # 52117975.

Completely ruined my assembly pressing it in. Did everything to the letter. I highly recommend to anyone doing this section to buy the plastic piece Mopar wants you to buy, especially if you have to then use a homemade welded tripod that may not be exactly perfect. The tool is Part # 6227-2, and is called the "Dodge Alignment OD Section Tool." I did the method with removing the intermediate shaft as described and ruined my transmission. Spend the $25 on this tool. In addition, some things to add: When you spin the assembly freely at 34:45, a little wobble is normal (and can even be seen in the video), I spent way too long trying to see if that was something I messed up on. Use ATF +4 to soak, not DEX like is shown. Also, for those with 4WD vice 2WD, everything seemed the same except the bushing at the tail housing (which is not used), and the seal at that end is different (but was supplied in the kit). I couldn't do any of this without these videos, but learn from my mistakes and just get the darn alignment tool.

I wish more people did exactly what this guy does in his videos no unnecessary crap just the mission at hand and how to do it the right way. Wisest guy I’ve ever listened to other than myself. Don’t forget it ! FIX IT! 👍🏻

Really your great thanks

THE COMPRESOR ARE IN GOOD PRICE

this guy is the Bob Ross of transmissions

I used your program to rebuild my 4l60e and am so thankful. It was so easy to follow and I was back up and running..... but now I'm about to need one for my 8l90. Do you plan on making a video on these newer transmissions?

My rev clutch clearance is .100+ with the 3 frictions and 2 steels. My clip is .075". I have another steel, but its .070" so that would be to tight. Any suggestions on how to bring the clearance into specs?

After I snug the pump bolts that's when it gets really hard to turn?

I have to say the pursuit of happiness reference really got me motivated to re build mine. Been debating on taking it to a shop but screw that I’d rather just pay for the re build kit. Is there any recommendation for a master rebuild kit coming off a 302 f150 1994 4r70w

I just wanted to add that only 4l60 takes .060 inches of clearence as a minimum between the 3-4 backing plate and first clutch plate. The specification is .060-.094 as stated in the video. However, the 4l60e takes .035" to .083" of clearance. That info is per service manuals. I got on mine 0.45" of clearance for a 2005 Trailblazer. I just wanted to put this here if someone is not getting the .060 despite using different size pressure plates; saving you the hassle 😅 I experienced. Always check your respective GM unit service manual

Amazingly easy to follow video, thank you and Gobless you 🙏

Thanks Jimmy We Shifting Now! First time building a unit and plenty more to come 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯🫡

mines a 1997 chevy astro van BUT the Bell housing is not one piece!! like the one you Showed for the 1997 Mines made up of 2 pieces!! must have been a A change in that year 1997!!!! just thought i pointed Out!!!

Great video. Who is chewing gum though? Him or the camera guy? 😂 notwithstanding, excellent information 👍

Great Videos! I have a question, problem with my tranny is it's difficult to engage drive or 1st when hot.. (not so much when cold) Is there something i can replace on the bottom half where the ball bearing go that somehow affect oil pressure to the internal part of the tanny? Or do you recommend just tearing it all apart wich someday i will eventually have to do?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I have a dodge van. I think it is not if but when the transmission will fail. I have talked to a former chrysler tech friend who says it can’t be done at home. Looked at another video that says you can’t. I’m interested in seeing if i CAN do it at home.

Ny transmission didn't have that steel spring damperner and I can't find it anywhere

God bless you sir , thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience

Hi Jim good morning Sir would you consider doing a hi performance build on the 4L60E and the same for dodge transmission like in the 1999 durango videos just like you did on the 4L80E , I will surely buy the vids , I work on alot of these vehicles and would love to build hi performance transmissions for them as I'm asked frequently, Thank You Sir I love the 4L80E vid I purchased from you

The bottom of your case inside looks smooth. Mine (k1500- 1995) seems to have many casting lines(hopefully not cracks!) on the non-machined surfaces . No leakage, are these normal?

Jimmy you are my Savior sir any way we can help donate to channel!
