This transmission even needs new sun gears with one smoked. Richard said they (took a modulator out and jacked the pressure spring up burning the pump up)?

I’m familiar with replacing front seals and tail shaft seals and an input shaft here and there or getting the tranny out of the way to do what I do best on engines. But when it comes to the gears and ratios or the ports or diagnosing issues inside the tranny, I might as well be a green hand. Watching your channel has simplified things and taught me stuff I had no idea about. It’s easy to sit down after a long day and be on your channel 3 hours and not realize.

During the evenings, a Transmission Specialist who worked at a local Dealership would take on side work and rent one of the bays at the gas station and the vehicle he was repairing would be brought in during the afternoon and aside from attending the gas pumps, I was to prep the vehicle and have the transmission ready to drop when the Transmission Specialist arrived after 5pm. I always kept my face and hands right beside the job he was doing and did I ever learn a lot from him, also he delighted in the fact that I was eager to learn about transmission repair ( wasn’t expecting to be paid to help and did not get paid as he shared his knowledge and skills freely to teach ). His teaching skills were great which made everything easy to learn and remember...which I also find the same skill and presentation in your videos. Thank you.

I've watched so many of your videos and I'm just so amazed at how much knowledge and know how you have when it comes to such a complicated piece of machinery. And it's not as if this is a "one size fits all" piece of equipment either. You seem to know all the ins and outs of any transmission that rolls into your shop. It's so impressive. And not only do you fix them, you improve on the manufacturers faults. Thank you for sharing what you do with the world!

You been watching long? Took Richard awhile to get comfortable with the camera. He doesn’t have much of a social media presence. He a good ole boy. The whole social media etiquette thing is probably something he ain’t even aware of

I don’t like being on camera so I was nervous. I don’t have a team. I do it all on my own basically. A few friends help me when they can. It’s hard to tell when I will run a car next. Covid canceled a lot of shows last year. Hopefully I will get to try out at least one transmission this year a few times.

Never pressured the guy at all! Why in the world would I pressure a guy that I drove 450 miles to have help me?? I was honored that he was willing and able to help me! Richard, Trent and Theresa are first class people! They are super kind and treated me like I have known them my entire life! It was a pleasure getting to talk to them not only about transmissions. But just life in general!!! The guys are just super busy and have more work going on there than you can imagine!!!

Man the way he throws parts around I'm jealous he can put them all back together without a issue😡😡. I would've been FUCKED😭😭😭😢😢😢. Asking if anyone can help me make sure everything is in the right place when time to put back together. We all have our skills set. But I can't do what he does and still place together perfectly. Good work man. You are going to have me come way from Florida. Just to watch you work. This is amazing! I'm such a hater right now. You should become a teacher once you retire. Teach the new kids how to do this.

Yeah I'd need a sharpie and a box of freezer bags to keep everything labeled and separated, and I'd still have a snap ring left over after putting it back together.

I can just hear customers all over the country saying "Rebuild this transmission proper, otherwise I am driving it to Amarillo and will let Richard of Precision Transmission show the entire whole world what you did and did not do" Richard might not give out the name of the prior shop, but it wouldn't stop the customer from adding it to the comments. Richard is doing everyone a big favor. Proper work requires skill, experience and know how. Richard makes it look easy, but he has paid his dues, advanced his knowledge and developed his own tricks to serve best the customer.

You could literally take an entire transmission, in pieces. Throw it into a bag, shake and throw the whole thing over your shoulder and still rebuild from scratch. Nice 👍 love watching a proper professional work. Ty.

WOW! I love this, I remember taking transmissions apart when I was 16-17 (1986-87) @18 I was doing my own R&R's, so much fun. I was actually cleaning parts on off-school days when I was younger. Furthermore, I learned a lot in those days.
