They Said His Allison Transmission Was “BUILT” What A Disappointment!

So far we had less than 500 people enter in to win the truck so those of you that participated your odds are really good 👍 This ends February 28th so you still have time. rafflecreator.com/pages/56076/1979-dodge-cummins-giveaway

It is mesmerizing watching Mark work, absolutely love when he's on the channel.

[@TruckMaster]

I totally agree

[@henriquett8232]

Mark can probably disassemble and assemble a whole transmission while sleeping. When it comes to transmissions, it is always a pleasure whatching this mens work.

[@heldtheflashlightfordad6728]

Totally agree, he is an absolute stud!

[@Yippa391]

I'll forth or fifth this statement... It's always a treat to watch masters of their trade.... Especially when it's something I love already.... I can watch him a hundred times and still not have a clue how to do it myself. Nor do I want to... He's the man. Built the truck myself with no experience. But whatever the transmission was that it had is the one it still got. In Nova Scotia Canada. Wish I could get Mark do a good rebuild for towing and add the 6spd..

[@elkinslawncare]

@@TruckMaster guys should team up

[@dmaxxd94]

Mark is such a mechanical genius anytime he’s on the channel is a blessing.

[@TruckMaster]

I totally agree

[@TheRedrider05]

Mark makes it look so elegant working on a transmission. It shows his experience when he spends less time disassembling a trans vs me changing my oil lol. Its art.

[@TruckMaster]

👍👍

[@wrathmax1887]

Watching Mark and Ryan is truly inspirational and such a learning experience. Josh you also add so much to the table as well that really keeps me engaged in the content. Rustbelt keep your head up your truck is in good hands. 👍

Thank you for showing the whole work done. The problem. Just what it takes to do these Transmission.very interesting

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks 🙏

All the work you put in is making hard stuff look routine. I liked hearing about marks most sold parts and projects. It was also nice to see rust belt back and see how his transmission was repaired. I was hoping to see what the filter caught. This channel is my favorite on all of KZbin.

Hey man , sorry i dont know ur name, but i just started getting interested in diesel trucks, and im hooked. U r a big reason why. Thanks for ur service. I think u r so honest and real hard working sob. I stop on ur video the one u said u might quit. It was eleven months ago. I hope u are getting paid like u should for u and ur family. I can see all the work u out into these videos . I will look deeper to see u making new videos. Can u please take the time and let us know everything is ok. U r the man and thanks for getting me to have diesel fever. Let us know asap thanks

Awesome content!!! Mark, it’s always great to see you share your knowledge on the transmissions!!!

Definitely 👍

[@BiahThompson_]

Good video man, didn’t know you were from Michigan. Been watching your videos ever since I’ve been on Recruiting assignment here in MI. Didn’t know much about diesel until I came across your channel. Keep it up.

[@drewstanley47]

So, the ID10T neutral drop bit had me rolling. And Marks face, when he broke that bolt loose that wasn’t torqued anywhere near it should’ve been, was priceless. 🤣

[@ChazzleDazzleVideos]

I have some of my dad's tools that I keep for sentimental reasons and I carry his favorite MN Twins baseball cap from the world series win in the 90s that I have in my LBZ (was his truck before he passed) so he is always in the passenger seat with me when I'm cruising.

[@kwippl4207]

You guys may be be joking but when I was 16 I rebuilt the tranny on an Oldsmobile 442 (remember I was 16 and this was my first). As I was lowering the jack, my Grandfather (RIP) jumped in it, started it up and pealed rubber pulling out of the garage bay. My heart leaped and then dropped as I wasn't sure I did everything right. My Father and Grandfather were laughing at my reaction but congratulated me on getting it right. My heart still flutters as I remember him pealing rubber out of the bay. Great memories!

[@boostseasonracing]

These guys are awesome! I so wish I could have had them ship me out a trans for my LBZ but that’s not a option like me shipping my truck to them. I did however order a transfer case a week before Christmas and received it very quickly. I still have yet to get my trans in but hopefully next week two months difference really sad. Props to these guys and their work all the way down to the packaging you receive the parts in…really hope I have not made a mistake on my decision for shop for the trans order

[@TKSavz]

Great content, that was an awesome video going through the Allison. I just found both your channels and saw the dyno run impressive numbers. I am a Cummins guy 100% but I do love the Duramax and I think I might buy one next. Also as an Iraq veteran thank you for what your doing supporting the DAV I bought some tickets. Keep it up!

[@greggroten]

I had those symptoms with my stock '06 soon after having my heads done. Turned out it was my wiring harness to the back of the trans!

[@billydagley3397]

My LML has 300,000 miles on it I'm done changed the transfer case but my transmission shifts hard sometimes and I know my rear differential needs rebuilt I would love to get hold of Kodiak truck to do it but probably ain't got enough money to afford it I'll probably have to just do them myself

He’s trans went down the same time went down. I had similar issues to him as well. Also, those bolts that hold the flex plate on I used a 3/4 Milwaukee to a 3/4 drive 14mm sunex socket and a lot of heat from a torch.

[@OldGriz708]

I have a couple of questions.....1) What kind of numbers did Kyle's truck put up on the dyno? 2) Is mark really thinking of getting back into the monster truck world?!?!?! 3) How many views do you think a video of Mark rebuilding an Allison blindfolded get and how long would it take him?? Another great video Josh!!

Good thing I guess he didn't dyno it. I just had a bumper pull built by a company down by my house they also make goosenecks and you can customize the way you want and I'm pretty sure it'll be right around 10K

[@bryanbrown1788]

Not to say the trans isn’t gone. When I started working on my LLY, I had a serious issue with my trans doing the same and 30 codes all together! I ultimately found it to be my “ignition switch! Just a thought!

Awesome build on an Allison tranny for sure!! I have a 2007 classic LBZ with the 6 speed Allison transmission in it!! I have 235,000 miles on it and have pushed snow with it for the past 6 years and haven’t had to do anything to my transmission yet!! But when it does go I will definitely have kodiak truck do the work to it for sure!!! I just love all there knowledge that he has and when something is wrong he definitely no’s for sure and can explain it write away!! He definitely no’s his shit with the Allison’s for sure and that is definitely who I want to do work on my truck if I can’t!!!

Anyone can build transmission, but it takes more than know how to swap transmission parts.

Is the blow off valve the waste gate? Whats a transmission rebuild cost for this. Quality shop for sure.

I had this issue with our other lbz duramax. Truck would get stuck in 5th gear so I would go into the tuner and delete the codes. It would temporarily fix the issue so I could at least drive it around

Josh roughly what does a trans rebuild trans for an Allison run mines a 5 speed from an LB7. no billet I just tow a 5 wheel camper and a Kubota tractor. I'm in Pennsylvania just had a reman trans put in just not happy with it truck seems like it starts in 2nd gear lost all the power out of the whole
