      Hey, you're correct that I used to live in NY, and that I don't rebuild much anymore. I'm actually an attorney and I rebuilt transmissions when I was in school. I did it for extra money back in the day. Also, I moved down south about two years ago, so I lost most of my old connections and wouldn't feel comfortable recommending any place.

    hi matt im building a 2007 4R75E , had to replace the direct drum, gear train and the front band was toast. my question is on the direct clutch can i get away with the clearance being under .060? clutch frictions spin nice but clearance is under the minimum. thanks doug

    • @2kwik4u2c
      @2kwik4u2c Před rokem

      Ya, absolutely works great below.060 direct clutch pack. They make different thickness steels, clutches, and snap-rings for the direct drum. I set them with a small clearance, closer to.030". Sounds like you're fixing the general 4R70-75 boat anchor. I always change ALL the accumulators, all the bushings, and use a transgo shift kit. Also, a new EPC solenoid would be a good investment for your build. Good luck!

    I hate to be a dick but if somebody's watching your video trying to figure out how to rebuild a transmission they don't have a prayer. I mean the idea of filming something is to actually point the camera where you're doing s*** and film it not walk away from the camera and shove your arm down in somewhere and don't show what way something win or what you know what what points where I mean if you're making a video about how to put something together then film how you put it together for f*** sake man

    Best Ford transmission was the C6. I had one in my 1986 F150 it lasted over 350,000 miles when I got rid of truck after the second engine rebuild. First engine lasted 200,000. I changed engine oil every 3000 and transmission fluid every 25000. I also always put magnet on engine oil filter and one on transmission pan. That common gear problem is engineered in that transmission. Just low grade gear. Great the case wears out, they could of used a bushing. Great video, you sure know that transmission.

    • @Ares-jx4ep
      @Ares-jx4ep Před 2 lety

      Hey, genius..... in the time you spent spamming the comments you could have watched the video frame by frame and figured out the answer.... or maybe you don't have enough common sense. 1. The "things" that fell out when he removed the pan were pan bolts. It works like this.... Before removing the trans you have to drain it. Since there is no drain plug you remove the pan. Since you're going to disassemble the trans anyway you reinstall the pan with only a few bolts after tossing the remaining bolts into the pan.... tends to keep everything together. 2. Shift soleniods are mounted in the valve body retaining tabs that are nearly always held in with screws. No transmission on the planet has parts that "fall" out when you turn it upside down.

I was hauling a 5x8 U-Haul way overweight and other than it using over $2k worth of gas, it didn't miss a beat. I rebuilt it (my first rebuild) two years ago, used a non magnetic sun shell, red frictions, valve body work, SureCure overdrive kit and it shifts like it has a shift kit going in to overdrive if I'm getting on it. It's a great trans. I keep it cool and the fluid clean. Nice work this guy does.

It has almost no acceleration and I can barely make it down the road. Any ideas what it could be i think it could be the transmission but I do t wanna jump to conclusions it is an automatic by the way. And it could have a bunk tune but I’ve reset the computer by disconnect the battery. Also there is no check engine lights. Do you know what it might be?

    I have a question what happens when the 1-2 accumulator spring breaks in the mid 90s 4R70W transmission?

    • @2kwik4u2c
      @2kwik4u2c Před 3 lety

      If the spring breaks in 2nd accumulator, then the trans will have a hard 1-2 shift, but it's drivable. It wouldn't rattle your teeth but it can get annoying. This was a very common problem with these early units. And if you were unlucky, the spring would shatter into little pieces and those little pieces of metal would get stuck in the accumulator bore and rip the seal. As a matter of practice, I always change both the springs and the accumulator in every rebuild.
