The most helpful J-Type rebuild video I've seen, thank you!

[@connerdesforge]

The specialty nuts you mentioned at 45:13 are called Aerotight Lock Nuts. They can be quite common in british cars and are used just about anywhere. They can wear like a normal lock washer so obviously its at mechanics discretion whether you replace them.

Excellent video series on the J-type overhaul! I’m in the middle of doing one for my Volvo. Getting the 12 roller bearings back into the cage was no big deal using a wide rubber band. I did it on the first try in about 2 minutes. If you’re going to rebuild a lot of these, having the 3D printed tool is a fine idea. I hope this is my only foray into the OD.

I had not really intended on watching a nearly one-hour long video on rebuilding an overdrive, but your explanations and comments were so interesting I did it anyway. Thanks a lot for all of your efforts to explain the work on this very complicated piece of machinery.

48:29, put some sealant on the splines so lube doesn't leak out there. Great video!

[@williamparnell5417]

Really appreciate this series of videos. I watched start to finish straight through, will be back to watch again when I attempt the same job. Thank-you. Looking forward to the test video next.

[@stevebaker4303]

Pure gold my friend!

[@patrickmurawski3549]

I may never actually do this build but found your presentation hypnotizing and you help me believe that I could. Thanks!

[@davidberlanny3308]

Great build, very easy to follow, well done!! Looking forward to seeing the test. Good luck from Spain!!

[@SS-rz1oc]

Great info

[@markharris7662]

Watching you rebuild this was such an interesting video. Your channel just gets better and better.

[@m_bagger]

I don't think I'll ever have to do this, but thanks for this amazing resource.

[@skipgould1780]

Well presented! Thank you!

[@timmarsh6754]

So thorough! If only I could find a way to get my J-Type shipped from the UK, I would be following along and refurbishing it. Fascinating video. Thank you.

[@akebratt7157]

thanks for a great video

[@domweaver3488]

[@kjeldlarsen912]

The "O" drive is assembled thx Elin great video

[@barry6274]

Well like others have said, this is a great video. I don't have an overdrive but if I ever get one I know where to look for help in overhauling it.

[@cheftush]

I wonder if it’s going to work as it should….can’t wait for the next video! 😎

[@pbysome]

Looking forward to this.this is a great video Elin, very concise and informative.

[@MrMikeyspfx]

You make it look easy,very good video.

[@peteredwards9147]

Fantastic

[@harpersisland]

Do you know if Mike Francis is selling his holder for assembling the roller bearing carriers?

[@Horsleyclassics]

Hi Elin what assembly “goo” are you using ?

[@kimeldiin1930]

A race ...a racer is a vehicle one races , or possibly, a person who races..........

[@DavidGustavsson-fx6mu]

I have a problem with my typ J . I can`t los the owerdrive from gerbox, just moving 3-4 mm. Wath hold it ? David

[@RustyBeauties]

Unfortunately I think there is an internal damage of the sun gear or the unidirectional clutch, which damaged also the splines of the main shaft causing it to get stuck. The only way is to tap it out gently with a brass or lead hammer and hope for the best. Normally it comes out very easy.

[@DavidGustavsson-fx6mu]

Tank you, i hade to take it away with fors , byt i dont se wat hold it , the valv hous is damaged, but i have order a used valv hous , tanks

[@kimeldiin1930]

The one way "bearing , was invented by Bendix ...a Bendix coupling".....sort of a mechanical rotational diode

[@markrobinson8539]

Great work FYI it is called a bearing "race" not a racer. I am sure that you wanted me to tell you that lol !!!!

[@garymallard4699]

i was waiting to see if someone else mentioned that..lol...your the " racer " at the racetrack... the bearing sits in a " race " ...😉

[@RustyBeauties]

LOL, now I feel embarrassed.... And it looks like I said it like 1000 times in this video only. Well, now I know, thank you. I wish someone'd told me earlier. I use it wrong in so many videos..... Well, it's a learning curve :)

[@markrobinson8539]

@@RustyBeauties Don't feel embarrassed...your English is great and I have been speaking English a lot longer than you have lol
