[@derekschmucker1609]

Love watching a guy work on something he knows like the back of his hand. Don't fully understand all the workings of an automatic transmission but it's always fascinating watching someone tear them apart and putting them together

[@halstonholcomb373]

why isn't this channel promoted more....this stuff is awesome ! I love learning all about it all!

[@dr.bowdoin3067]

Right! I got F250 and Im still hooked watching

[@jdkirane7990]

That sucks that the Mega cab got broken into at a Texas Roadhouse!

[@griffinpierce7691]

Id be pissed if someone stole my truck gun

[@ryanbrown918]

Awesome video...the more technical you get, the better. Shows us the kind of knowledge and experience you have in this industry.

[@kimojon9665]

Great vid, love the craftsmanship you guys put into your builds.

[@idahobuckaroo8348]

Very impressive builds. Thanks for sharing.

[@Burroughsbikebuilds]

I used to be that kid breaking into stuff. Now, at 30? Totally ashamed and it aggravates me to see this happens to others. I have a small transportation business now. Everything in life is straight and legal. Sorry you guys had to go through that.

[@ericlandry7520]

Great job 👍on the build and videos hope to see more cant wait to purshase hardware from firepunk Diesel.

[@MrBillycan1]

You guys are incredible, and I’m very impressed

[@MK-ng5fp]

white cummins is SICK

[@dwight072]

Awesome video !!

[@bandabanderos]

Excellent video. Definitely learned some things. Like using the dial indicator to check clutch clearances. I always used feeler gauges and it’s a pain. Question. When checking final endplay, where were you prying? I just set mine on the output shaft to check, not sure if that’s right

[@FirepunkDiesel]

Input end play we're prying up on the sunshell from the reverse drum, this lifts the intermediate and input shaft off the selective on the back of the intermediate, giving you a true measurement on end play

[@dixiemae5042]

Good info

[@jamesgazdag876]

Diff be my luck soon as trucks done some ass hole breaks in

[@rogerash0]

Awesome video

[@kanehoward7050]

Funny thing is the thief had no idea how much value was under the hood! My favorite white and chrome!

[@wesleytruax2469]

Nice video. You cant have anything nice that someone won't destroy or try and take.

[@MichaelBrown-fb8kk]

Props on owning your shit with that damage and theft

[@Project_Cummins]

That's a sweet build

[@Boostd_c10]

With the ATSG book, is it pretty straight forward on rebuilding a 48re. I cracked my overdrive housing september of 18 got almost all my parts ordered just a little nervous. Just when someone asks who did something to my truck i take pride in saying i do, expect tuning i leave that to you guys lol

[@pbAdpcustoms]

Could you save the forward clutches by using trans brake when Staging or boost laughing

[@bravestender]

Damn. Last time I go to that Texas Roadhouse....

[@zacklunsford1493]

People suck. I my car was broken into less than 5 miles from there stole my gun as well. Lord help me if I catch em.

[@demetriuspalmer2992]

Hey I wanna know what would ya guys recommend for someone wanting to use a G56 in a race truck cuz I wanna build an OBS or Dentside F250 wit a G56 but use it for everything including racing and towing and pulling

[@dordtrecht5]

Nice.. I've got a 07.5 6.7 cab and chassis with the Aisin. Do you guys do any Aisin rebuilds?

[@The_MadPatter]

Dallas Crist did you put the Aisin in there? The Aisin trans didn’t come in Dodge trucks till 2013

[@dordtrecht5]

@@The_MadPatter no, I didn't. Went off of VIN. It was offered starting in 2007.5 as an AS68RC. It doesn't have the tap shifter.

[@markrich3271]

Firepunk Diesel You know what guys would buy if you made. A step by step how to video of building a 47/48 re.

[@bernhard8540]

How in the hell did they break the mirror? I'm so sick of the dirtballs out there in the world. If someone has something nicer than you, you work harder to get yourself that nicer thing. You don't smash someone's hard work in and destroy their stuff. Wtf is wrong with this world.

[@riflemanjim]

No coolant break in...interesting

[@rionegro7368]

I have a question did you guys do Dually Dyno have mega cab 3500 5.9

[@tjdietrich6985]

Have you ever seen the low/reverse sprag race come out of the case before? If so what do you do to fix it and what causes the race to work it's way out of the case?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

Very seldom does this roller clutch come loose, occasionally we see the sprag race loose but usually we make sure the race is tapped to the back of the case, then stake it in place to secure it if it's loose. Now if you launch too hard on the sprag then it will crack the case and rip the sprag race loose from its splines.

[@tjdietrich6985]

@@FirepunkDiesel Gotcha. A couple broken input shafts ago, I noticed the race worked it's way out of the case and was rubbing on the drum. Ended up putting a bolt in race. Is that something you guys do as a fix?

[@colbylarsen3612]

videos like this make me want to switch to cummins !!!!!!!

[@lonestarcummins08]

I already swapped to a cummins and have never regretted it

[@ToddKing]

As a gun owner, it's very disappointing to hear that someone left their firearm in their vehicle while they were thousands of miles away. I don't know if the Firepunk crew had access to it, but if they had, that would be a big no-no too.

[@cbrown17982010]

Was the firearm in the console the customers or someone from the shops?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

Customers, I didn't know it was there

[@cbrown17982010]

@@FirepunkDiesel No offence but the customer should be keeping better track of his firearms. If this happened in NY they'd probably arrest you or the trucks owner.

Hot dam I was really hoping this would have a stance like your 4th gen. Still nasty though

[@stayunique91]

God damn that’s a long truck. Like 25 ft or so?

[@TheTsunamijuan]

spec sheets say 20.65' feet / 247.9" w/o bumpers

[@stayunique91]

TheTsunamijuan with the short bed? So like 22-23 ft with the long bed? Still fucking long lol

[@porkburrito]

How to identify a Texas truck- White crew cab long box, and a ranch hand. Swear every truck in TX falls under these guidelines

[@dillonkolp7158]

Not

[@spencerhoback2583]

Not hating but could have left the customers trust at the shop, avoided that all together..

[@FirepunkDiesel]

The customer asked us to daily drive it after the build to make sure it had no leaks etc before it went across the country.

[@jasonhaslett3456]

You guys hiring?

[@bobbysmoke6.4dzl94]

Absolutely pathetic man, I pray that God will let the culprit know the err of their way and convict them to repentance. Lavon, May God bless you and your family brother!🙏👍🏻🇺🇸

[@njdevi11]

Did I hear that right: "The best time to retorque head studs is when they're hot?"

[@bravestender]

For a fire ringed block yes.

[@FirepunkDiesel]

On a fresh fire ring, yes, we do a hot retorque to make sure we get proper ring crush.

[@zebco14250]

Firepunk Diesel all you did for break in was 5min at 2k rpm? Was that just for the cam and dyno for rings?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

@@zebco14250 yes, 5min no coolant at 2000rpm, then retorque head studs and add coolant, 2000rpm for 20min, then oil change and roll

[@kevincallahan3301]

Why do you guys paint your fingernails white?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

I was born with white nails, occasionally one will grow out natural pink then back to white.

[@Thesongstaysthesame]

Such a cool build guys! That thing is gonna hurt some feelings! Any idea what it weighs?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

We didn't weigh it but I'd guess 8700lbs

[@drake_24v_hawkins]

Hey.... are your nails painted? Or am I crazy?

[@FirepunkDiesel]

No, I was born with white nails. Some of my siblings have white nails as well.

[@drake_24v_hawkins]

@@FirepunkDiesel that is very interesting! I have actually had fake nails before strictly for helping with machine work picking up very smooth parts and also when I was building trans for the shop I worked at I liked them for popping o rings out of place! So I wondered if it was similar

[@davidmoore5021]

Firepunk Diesel I noticed your nails and sibling in the past videos and being an old fart I was shaking my head thinking “damm kids these days” 😂😂😂. I’m glade that got straightened out.

[@jeremyc137]

Another great video. Sucks to hear about the truck getting broken into. Some people are garbage.

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

Some guy near me is selling one of these for 50k. 2008 long bed dually mega cab. And it’s a 6 speed. To be honest this should be titled worst daily. There is a lot of places around town you couldn’t even go with this truck. Gas stations you couldn’t fit in. Everywhere you go you’d have to park in the back 9. Terrible daily driver.

[@FirepunkDiesel]

Everything is bigger in Texas...

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

Firepunk Diesel lol are Walmart parking spaces bigger in Texas ? I’d pay money to see you park this thing anywhere close to the front door.

[@brandongreer3876]

Only the welfare recipients park by the front door, in Texas. The rest of us fight over the shade! If there is any lol

[@rodleypumpkins4174]

Brandon Greer I work hard for my money I run equipment for a living. That being said I’m no welfare recipient. When I’m at Walmart like EVERY other red blooded American I go to the front first to see if I caught anyone backing out or a free spot and then move to the back till I find a spot lol. That statement made no sense lol. Not to mention the best spots in the lot are hand cap spots tho some maybe welfare recipients id bet most of them are on state and in a wheel chair because that’s the cards they were dealt.

[@brandongreer3876]

Come check out one of our Walmart parking lots. Then, you'll understand.
