SM465 Rebuild, Part 1 Disassembly and Bearing Removal

[@patchone9558]

Just got done building a sm465. Using the Novak kit adapting to a dana 20 everything went fine I followed your videos step by step. Thanks for a well put together video series very helpful. Anyone attempting doing a rebuild I suggest you have a press or access to one. I have a small 12 ton press worked great. Thanks again.

What's the kit / part number

[@Mwellmac]

Your the man.. In a world where nothings cheap I highly appreciate the knowledge.

[@jackcollins2344]

Will be interesting to watch start to finish.

[@metalshaperJeep]

Good to hear from you Jack, hope all is well. I am going to show the entire transmission rebuild, even though I know not may folks are using this transmission these days.

[@beebo101]

Very timely rebuild series, just getting ready to do mine. Thanks Brian.

[@metalshaperJeep]

hope my videos will help you along with your rebuild.

[@joshendtricht3362]

@16:10... Name or part number of the bearing puller???... I need this in my life. Good info, good video. Thanks.

[@fmcmillan08]

Hey Brian, I’m new to watching your channel but just wanted to say that I can’t thank you enough for the work and detail you put into your videos. These videos help and save guys/gals like me all kinds of time and from making serious mistakes that would ruin and halt project progress. So again I thank you for your wisdom and making these videos! Keep up the great work and looking forward to learning all I can from you. Cheers from Canada!!

[@metalshaperJeep]

Good to hear from you and glad you are enjoying my videos. Trying my best to put good information out there for everybody and glad you see the value in my videos. Brian

[@rogerrothweiler9210]

Great video again Brian. Bought a SM465 last fall for my CJ-7, to replace T5 trans, but will have D300 xfer box. Still down the road, but happy to have this for a reference. Thanks!!

[@johnpaniagua8620]

I used 2 screw drivers and pried the front counter shaft bearing off. 77 chevy C10. It came off relatively easy. Regardless great set of videos, very helpful, thanks for making them.

[@rayganter8029]

Love this type of work, thanks Brian

[@metalshaperJeep]

Glad you enjoyed it, more videos coming

[@wesleyjackson1821]

Great video. Can you list the Chevy part number for the bearing puller used in the video?

[@ICrazyAidan]

Did you ever figure out what pulled this was one or one that works?

[@RADIOACTIVEMASCULINITY]

I love watching all of your series!

[@metalshaperJeep]

Nice to know that some people enjoy the different types of work I do. As always, thank you for watching.

[@mackyarbrough570]

When I installed the dana 18 adapter from advanced adapters to my sm465 I just purchased a posi lock bearing puller made the job real quick

[@metalshaperJeep]

great, better than using a large hammer to do things.

[@kevinengland4675]

This is gonna be a good series man 👍🇨🇦

[@metalshaperJeep]

I hope this rebuild helps other folks when doing a rebuild on their own stuff. More videos on the way.

[@quintonborden3634]

Take the clip out of the inside of the front bearing and remove the rollers

[@mr.ranyhomemade2466]

Really good info to know

[@richardsalsbery1101]

A nice3 setup!!

[@metalshaperJeep]

thanks

[@thefreeak]

Really appreciate the technical information in this series of videos. Any chance you could provide the part numbers of the bearing puller tools you used in your video description?

[@noahpruitt5074]

Can you share the kent moore bearing puller part number? Great video

[@mjsmason]

Can you put tool names/part #s in video description? I'm hearing impaired and know people in my situation miss a lot of information.

[@johndoe43]

Great video as always. Cool you have those Kent moore tools. I tried to get the thrust yoke tool for the Warner 3 speeds like the t 14 a. I called who made the tool but no luck. Can't remember if it was Kent moore. Would be nice to find a retiring trans guy. The only guy I know now is still going.

[@metalshaperJeep]

When you can't find the tool you need best to make it yourself. I have many transmission tools that are home made and work great.

[@jimhoran5445]

Great video!

[@metalshaperJeep]

Thanks!

[@robertnaughton5417]

You amaze me

[@metalshaperJeep]

keep watching more videos coming

[@aussiedazvk4djh889]

Great video Brian. 👍 I would like to see someone some day draw a bearing out with a pencil. 😂

[@metalshaperJeep]

You and me both, lots of folks say they can do it but I have never seen it.

[@vikinghauler3244]

Do you have a number on that puller sandwich tool?

[@brucetibbetts]

Can you tell me the name and part number on the bearing puller? I been trying to find one but having a hard time finding it

[@prospector7777]

Had a leak via the front seal and screwed the clutch. At least I learned again the seals suck. Not taking the top off and gonna feel for the flot spot to pull the input shaft. Mine seems a tad loose.

[@metalshaperJeep]

you have to drop the cluster gear to the bottom of the case to remove the input shaft. If the seal is bad just pull the front bearing retainer cover and change to a new seal and you should be fine.

[@prospector7777]

@@metalshaperJeep unsatisfied from last clutch and seal job . Not many miles and blew that clutch on a long haul , thanks to the seal blowing almost asap. The bearing is sloppy. I was overloaded too much. the pilot bushing must have got hot too as the bushing started to disintegrate. I should have stopped and adjusted the clutch fork as the wear increased possibly from that too. Most slippage was the oil . I only use the truck to move almost every year because of our crappy , stupid world. Then I have to fix it all the time. Very pissed that it is made to wear out, just like everything else.

[@undeadking7033]

Is there any difference in the input shafts between the 2x4 and 4x4 sm465 transmission as I have a 4x4 with a worn input shaft and some parts 2x4 transmissions?

[@metalshaperJeep]

input shafts are the same

[@ODellGarage731]

Your tail housing came off too easy lol. Mines a sm465 4x4 transmission an I'm having a hard time removing that tail housing yours seemed to come off with a few taps any advice

[@jimcoleman3488]

I was wondering what the captured race puller from Kent-moore is called specifically or model number for it so I can try and get one also! Im getting ready to start a sm365 rebuild soon! BTW Great video!!!!

[@johnbreen440]

thahk you

[@metalshaperJeep]

appreciate you watching.

[@blackswampenterprisesltd3471]

Where are you from? Would like to ask a few questions. I may be interested in a transmission.

[@metalshaperJeep]

I am in Connecticut

[@cajunmaker6917]

How are you adapting the 4bt to the sm465?? Plz help

[@metalshaperJeep]

If you watch today's video you will see the completed adapter that I made attached to the SM465. If you go back a few videos you can watch the entire adapter being made from a solid billet of aluminum.

[@KennethBeams]

Is it possible to install the 465 in my 62 4 cyl cj 5 ?

[@metalshaperJeep]

Anything is possible. You will need an adapter to attach to your engine. then an adapter to attach the dana 18 transfer case. Driveshafts will need to be lengthened in the front, shortened in the rear. You will have a very short driveshaft in the back. Your clutch linkage will need to be modified and a variety of other things will need to be addressed. Mounting, floor modifications, etc.... Make sure you are up to the task before you start, a lot of people start swaps like this and never finish.

[@derricksmiley8293]

​@@metalshaperJeepparts number for rebuild kit?

[@richardsalsbery1101]

I would like to see the engine install please!!!

[@metalshaperJeep]

There has not been much interest in the Cummins engine, the adapter build for the 465, or much else on this project, but I will show videos of some things as I move along.

[@OneHedonist]

Mostly good video just not proper lighting, for next time. Good plan to find the factory tools.
