People as comfortable around machines like you are the reason why machines will never take over. The Machines are looking for people like you . Thank you for being so comfortable around this 4L80e. It shows you know what to expect.

[@juiced71]

I dig it 👍🏻👍🏻love the vid nice and easy to follow along I watched other trans guys dig into it and they go super fast throwing bolts everywhere you end up with more questions then answers ! Nice job ! 👍🏻

[@BlaserBuilds]

juiced71 Thanks man.

[@lexustech48]

Thanks for the awesome video. Just dropped the pan on a 4L80e in my 96 k2500 Suburban. Only have 2nd and reverse. Replaced the internal harness cause it looked like a 25y/o harness would. Was able to ohm out my solenoids. Tcc and pressure control were ok. Shift solenoids were out of spec. Going to replace the pressure pad while im in there too. Fluid and filter actually look great. For anyone in this spot too, make sure you have key on source voltage on the truck side connector that feeds the 1-2, 2-3, and TCC solenoids.

[@EvanLightner304]

My 05 is overheating and slipping. Gonna try a rebuild, your videos are great man

[@BadLuckGarage]

Wow that thing was full of clutch material!! Good in depth video brother! 👍

[@BlaserBuilds]

Bad Luck Garage Yeah one clutch was down to bare metal. Lol.

[@BadLuckGarage]

It’s ok, you can rebuild it! Faster,stronger,.....we have the technology. And probably nobody under the age of 35 is gonna get that reference. Damn I’m old. 😂

[@rememberussliberty1822]

@@BlaserBuilds How difficult do you suppose it would be to install a hd2 kit with the trans still in the truck. My main concern is the checkballz.

[@BlaserBuilds]

@@rememberussliberty1822 Wouldnt be too bad. The balls should be able to rest in the separator plate holes.

[@strattuner]

built units for 47 years,nobody but a few of my customers ever changed the fluid and filter on timely schedules,those who did didn't have rebuilds under the 280k mark,when they did,they rebuilt it to new,if people would religiously change their fluid and filter every 45k miles,they wouldn't see guys like me for years,that filth in the valve bodies is metal dust in suspension,its the culprit,it wears valve bores and valves and loss of pressure in holding members fails,and its rebuild time,change those filters and dirty fluids,lose the agravation,i built thousands of units,always add LUBEGARD to any trans that is an overdrive,it works, if your converter shudders put it in ,problem solved,this guy knows his stuff,pay attention

[@HunterTuned]

Oh boy I remember doing all of this to mine! Lol transmissions are fun I enjoy them. They just never seemed to work right after I fixed them lol. I enjoy these videos! Where you get your outro song? Lol

[@alex6261971]

great video : very good attention to detail. keep making awesome work.. thumbs up

[@davidconley3610]

This is new to me! You’re doing a great job explaining it 👍

[@truckerguy2572]

really loving this set of video's showing just how simple this is just a over grow pump it scares a lot of mec's

[@transamriderql]

Great video homie you made it so simple for me to understand the valve working you the big uncle

[@PROJECTRED5]

Very good content man keep it up please. DIYers college if you as me. The way you explain the different stages is spot on.

[@sled1racer]

Cool, trans rebuild vids. Ive never seen it done before, always taken them to the tranny shop....it doesnt look as complicated once seeing the vids and the descriptions. Thanx

[@BlaserBuilds]

T Ting Thanks. That's the goal. A better understanding myself, and an easy, somewhat entertaining way to explain it.

[@ChevroletTough]

This is very helpful as I may need to do the valve body. Does the transmission need to be removed to do this job because of the ball bearings?

[@meddial-mandhari9509]

Great video very knowledgeable thanx.. How did clean up all that gunk..!?

[@BlaserBuilds]

Meddi Al-Mandhari I used mineral spirits.

[@TheProchargedmopar]

Excellent descriptions and teaching. Where are you learning this stuff? Google, Repair manual, youtube, buy rebuild video, or?????

[@BlaserBuilds]

TheProchargedmopar Mostly internet. I did get a 4l80e manual yesterday but haven't really looked at it yet.

[@scottfaivre272]

Impressive my man! I like it! I've messed with all things mechanical, but never a transmission. I always thought you needed to have specialty tools and jigs in order to work on Transmissions. I'll be following this! Thanks! Keep up the great work!

[@TrampusWingo]

Killing it, man. Thanks for going through this with us. Beginning to actually look forward to going through my transmission... wow. Never thought I’d type those words.

[@moneymac2864]

Epic next video is gonna be sweeeet

[@michaelbachman5575]

Good job I like how your taking your time

[@goofball3236]

ok i got a question i have a 4l80e in my 99 silverado 4x4 when its cold it hesitates to shift in 4th until it warms up

[@hectorbalboa4997]

I love your transmission class but we need to know the length of screws that you remove from the body

[@BlaserBuilds]

Need to know the length because you're replacing them or?

[@jayceingham9540]

Very knowledgeable

[@bobbynick2202]

Hello, great video!Can the solenoids be replaced or does the entire valve body have to be replaced?

[@bryanst.martin7134]

Great video! My 4L80E is with a 6.5TD, and has very strange behavior. I can manually select 1,2,&3, and they will shift automatically, but fourth and TC lock up don't work. Additionally, throttle control is very sketchy. If you don't continually accelerate even just slightly it shuts down to idle, then kicks back up to original setting. Also noticed this morning (rather cool for Fl.) that it acts up at even lower speeds and not just over 45MPH. Would the trans temp sensor cause this? Or several problems?

[@bigbill2376]

What about the temp sensor that's zip tied to the harness? What does it do? Can it cause the trans to go into default mode or lose TCC?

[@coleschott007]

very good quality video, but if we could just get ya to lover the level setting on your music just a tad , that would be great, yeah the music comes thru a little heavy on my set up, (laptop with kinda old laptop speakers in the garage) i find i get to rewind a little often, BUT other than that a most excellent very high quality production, thanks -, idk you look like you might be having a little Reggea in the back ground of your garage, that would be cool

[@BlaserBuilds]

XX X Thanks. Ill keep that in mind. I always listen to make sure it's not too loud but every device plays differently.

[@coleschott007]

thats the truth i used to be a video editor in LA i usually did my final inspect on a pretty crappy system if it worked and sounded okay on that one it was usually fine, no idea what system or software you are using but it looks plenty great for youtube and as an in-structural production!

[@mykealantaloczy3789]

Very well done video

[@davekelley6065]

Thanks informational for sure

[@seando87]

Does the valve body have to come off to remove the reverse band servo?

[@robertghiringhelli1567]

Really great

[@jeremyrowe4339]

I lost reverse in my 4l80e in my 2003 2500 4x4. It just stopped like I had lost pressure. All of my forward gears run fine and shift smooth. Could the problem be in the reverse servo seals?

[@rytvdinners5064]

Thanks

[@fixins]

Gonna do the Sloppy shift kit as long as you're in there?

[@BlaserBuilds]

Adam Payne Transgo HD2 kit is the plan.

[@JonBrave]

Great video, thanks

[@raymondrazo6993]

Hey, i have a 04 Silverado 2500hd 6.0 4x4 with only 119k miles, 1st , 2nd , 3rd, and 4th start shifting hard after going 60mph on the highway. Then if i stop and turn it off for 3 minutes then i turn it on again and drive it and it shifts normally! Pls help

[@mikemay777]

Great job

[@mikegee8900]

Where did you get the adapter for your trans to go into your engine stand?

[@BlaserBuilds]

I built it. 2" pipe and bent flat bar.

[@timpashnik5376]

I have 4l80e trans it shifts hard into drive with a thump noise but all gears work great and shifts good where do i start with repair?

[@Shawn_Magara]

Tim Pashnik rear u joint

[@ryanplent2673]

Literally uploaded this vid just in time

[@justin_parks]

You need some power tools bro! Makes disassembly a breeze

[@BlaserBuilds]

justin parks I have some but I always go back to hand tools. Takes a bit longer but I feel better about it, lol.

[@justin_parks]

a21bravo i can relate, but ive never felt bad about disassembling with them. I always hand job the assembly stuff. Torque everything also

[@russhfilms682]

I only had 7 check balls

[@apeykid69]

Black stuff its friction material
