[@Turner2211]

Mark deserves ALL the customers. Love seeing someone putting quality over quantity. Rare find nowadays.

[@TruckMaster]

Definitely

[@jaydunbar7538]

Its not rare at all, its a simple matter of what people are willing to pay for. If you want the attention to detail you need to offer fair trade for the persons time, amd most would rather have the lower price so thats what shops give them. That doesnt mean those same shops can't do a top notch job if you tell them what you want and, just don't expect it at the advertised bargain price.

[@Turner2211]

Jay Dunbar agree to disagree lol. I’ve overpaid plenty of people that want to cut corners in order to increase their profit.

[@MS-es9hm]

@@Turner2211 Yes profit is primary driver for many shops; but there's also the quality factor of the tech/owner of that shop. Some techs may just not know or try to know enough to build the best of the best no matter what they may charge. Mark clearly kept digging/learning until he was completely satisfied with the end product that would represent his brand. Many techs would just look at the factory set up, determine it was bad engineering and then tell the customer to "expect" sub par performance or that it had to be rebuilt more often because of bad design components. I understand what Jay is saying in that you can go to a shop and ask for the discount build and you might be able to ask for the primo build. But will that shops' primo build be as good as Marks? Perhaps/perhaps not..... With videos like this we get to see a quality build and we can choose to use Mark or at least go to our own local shops with eyes wide open and expectations where they should be. :)

[@repairvehicle]

Good job documenting everything. Quality comes with cost. But, majority of people don't care about quality, they want cheap and fast without realizing they will pay twice.

[@TruckMaster]

Your so correct

[@repairvehicle]

@Kernica1, are you looking for cheap but quality service?

[@camc7187]

It’d be cool to see more builds like this

[@linksgarage1985]

Mark is a master craftsman. Please pass this knowledge in to the younger generation. No one puts effort into the quality detail that he does. Keep it up sir. Your skill is amazing. And appreciated.

[@tannerroberson2516]

Could u make a video of mark explaining why to use 5w30 synthetic motor oil and which brand he recommends

[@EmpoweringDIYFamily]

I work for BorgWarner where they make transfer cases. It’s awesome seeing someone putting quality parts back into a reman unit. Companies who reman units like he said care about profit not quality! Great job and cool build.

[@ronfrance4041]

I’ve got a BW4470 with drum brake in my C3500HD 4x4 and it seems like a great T-case

[@EmpoweringDIYFamily]

Ron France I don’t build them. I work in maintenance. But I do notice they take a very high standard when it comes to everything in this facility. I feel like they build some pretty dang good stuff. I wish I worked at the plant that builds turbos too. I’d love to have a couple for my truck! 😂

[@CHICOB4261]

It’s an incredible pleasure to watch Mark work! You can tell this is what he was built to do. I don’t know why Marc got into this line of business but when he got into it he was “all” in. I could watch him do this all day and I would still be in awe of this mans talent and knowledge. I think when I get my LLY Duramax diesel if it needs any of this type of work I’ll just drive from Atlanta to Wisconsin!🤣

[@diesel_0669]

Great video I like what Mark say about the quality over quality 👍🏻 to him great job

[@SR-tc9gd]

Thanks for sharing the info. This stuff is so valuable to me as I am still learning. Big takeaway is that Kodiak does it right!!

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks 👍👍

[@Supaslow5.3]

Love these vids I’m super stoked about this truck

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks 👍

[@SUBI_PaT]

Mark definitely takes his job serious,this is what it’s all about quality over quantity the money in his eyes isn’t worth much instead his work ethic shows mark would love to get a transfer case done from you ballpark figure love the content as always

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks

So cool!! What great people to allow you to be there and film. I’m sure their sales have gone up to lol. Looks awesome

[@rickypisarchick5608]

Truck Master that’s the truth

[@mrgmc6314]

Good I have a allison 5 speed and the 8100 ... I'm looking forward to learning something about it

[@mrgmc6314]

@Andy Pedro About 12 mpg with the 8100 allison transmission 4x4 crew cab short bed on 35 inch tires .. it's not bad considering it will tow anything and pushes my 9ft plow with ease ...and even loaded it gets about the same mileage....

[@mikestrucks]

Very interesting video ! This guy definitely knows his job... awesome 👍🏻

[@dmaxoutdoors]

Does mark suggest adding 3 quarts of 5w30 thru the speed sensor. Thats how I do mine. I see he suggest the same oil. Just wondering if he suggest using fill plug method or sensor method. Thanks

[@harrystevenson7098]

Kodiak Truck's is a awesome 👍 my 2004 Transfer case we got back in June or s working wonderfully thanks a bunch.

Awesome content

[@seabee73]

I'll have to remember the 98% discount when I go up this fall to get the transmission and transfer case.😁

[@sullyswatching6758]

Hey Truckmaster, Great videos, I really love learning how to do some work myself. I am about to change the transfer case fluid on my stock LLY and it says use ATF, but I see Mark has 5w30. Is that best for stock transfer cases? Or stick with ATF?

[@TruckMaster]

Yes definitely go with 5w30

[@repairvehicle]

It depends. If you have oil pump then you can go with 5w-30, if not atf might be better option.

[@adampersson3619]

Any idea why Mark uses 5w30 synthetic motor oil in his rebuilt transfer cases versus traditional fluid?

[@jimmyjaco5759]

Whats marks thoughts on using anaerobic sealant instead of silicone?

[@chakagillis]

These guys at Kodiak know their shit. I hope they've gotten an increase in business from your vids

[@drewk5929]

I have a question for Mark. Off typic but i run amsoil in my duramax and have for most it’s life. Thing is it does use some oil between changes and I was told if I went back to conventional oil I’d most likely not use as much if any oil between changes as was told my rings would seal up better. Thoughts? Thanks much

[@2015_Rubicnn]

Wouldn't question be more toward Ryan?

[@9856CB]

Great work ethic, Mark 👍👌

[@ronthompson2366]

Amazing... great video. Have to say, sucks Mark is way up north... as I live here in south Alabama ! But having scene his work. I would make the journey to have him do the work. Fantastic quality. You have a great setup and relationship there with Mark and Ryan, along with the folks at HSP. Curious, in one of your posts. You introduced a former Marine out in California running a fab shop. Are you looking to introduce any of his products into the build ? Cool thing about this Josh..excuse me .. TRUCKMASTER...lol, well deserved respect... You have all winter, as it approaches, to put this build together. Go whole hog... dually, dual turbo... full tilt ... lol.. I think it's great, and no matter what it's a great project and build...looking forward to seeing what's next..

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks Ron I appreciate the nice comments and definitely! Rory out of LA Ressurected Diesel. He is a good friend and really knows his stuff

[@skyscraper2116]

My truck isnt going in gear , I mean it will sometimes but then itll just wont, would the transfer case be a problem or the transmission, I've got a 07 duramax

[@nebraskaspoolyboyz]

I put a shift kit in my 02 Duramax and it literally leaked after every time I would drive it was so dumb but I can’t wait to see your project Duramax when it’s done.

[@juanitofootball94]

How often do I have to replace the transfer fluid on the kodiak transfer case?

[@OldGriz708]

Josh has there been any issues with the plastic fork? I'm sure if Mark is using them they must be high quality but plastic just doesn't sound right for a shift fork.

[@TruckMaster]

It’s very common they all have that plastic molding on the forks but I agree it’s interesting how they use plastic material inside these units

[@johnoksys7713]

You saved anouther truck I like this shop guy some people don't take pride in their work anymore 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks

[@codyyellott117]

Only thing holding my truck up from driving is the damn injector return lines it’s a shame I can’t get it done myself

[@Toolaholic7]

Another cause of pinion bearing failure is the fluid level not checked during oil changes in the front differential.It does not take that long to remove the fill plug inserting a long small screwdriver checking the fluid level pulling it out to see if there is gear lube in it

[@donaldlong9649]

awesome video!!

[@richardclark247]

I have a lly, can I just change valve body and Ecm to get a 6 speed.

I think Mark should sell a rebuild kit with an instructional video for these transfer cases. I'd love to rebuild mine since it has so many miles on it.

[@NollEngineeringPerformance]

Why 5/30? Is there any particular reason he doesn’t recommend autotrak? Does mark use different components that don’t do well with autotrak or atf? Just wondering if that’s specific to his builds or if that’s a general consensus for all these cases

[@davidm.8717]

Kodiak has the 5W30 Synthetic Motor oil only sticker on the T-case. Aren’t the T-Cases rated for GM’s “special” all trak fluid...which appears to be transmission fluid? Can you ellaborate why he used motor oil vs trans case fluid?

[@kodiaktruck3583]

ATF is basically a zero weight oil. your will get very hot to the point you cant touch it with out getting burnt. years ago we started using 5w30 full synthetic motor oil . you will have a 5 weight cold and a 30 weight warm. much better protection on bearings and components plus being synthetic it wont foam under load (in 4wd) like no synthetic oils.

[@davidm.8717]

kodiak truck thanks for your response! That is very beneficial information to have!
