- The tear down of another SUPPOSEDLY built transmission and this makes twice!!! Let me tell you you’re about to be really upset because this customer has paid good money twice to have is transmission rebuilt and there is nothing built about this transmission. It’s been out twice and still has the factory convertor. Transfer case tear down coming soon don’t want to miss this. I hope everyone enjoys thanks for watching. 👍🏼❤️🙏🏼

They're actually easier to work on because there's more room inside the case than a manual trans.

Witch!!!
Blows my mind how fast he moves through the trans. I take one bolt out and I’ll be searching for where to put it back.
Richard is the kind of mechanic we all wish we had access to.
These are the mechanics I want to attach tracking devices to. Them and folks who know how to cut my hair. They aren't allowed to leave town without notifying me, and if I move they have to move with me.

Amen! My barber has been cutting my hair for 25 years...
Our Transmission man out in San Bernardino, Ca...him and his two other brothers have been building transmissions since they were teenagers. They each run their own shops and there is no such thing as “Slow” at their shops. No advertising and just word of mouth keeps them from having vacations and keeping to only one day off. Sunday.
You want quality work and a man that backs up his work. He is the man.

A man you can trust!
my dad was the transmission tech at Rohm Chevrolet in the 70's .10 yrs later he was sick with cancer sat on a chair and told me step by step on rebuilding my transmission. he even remembered torque specs
heartbreaking that that’s the trade off for working with these solvent
God bless his soul
Your dad = absolute legend
Legend. Rip.
Legend
I like how he just rips everything apart without a second thought and throws it in a pile. The level of expertise is off the charts.
Not trying to undermine the expertise but he is just throwing half those parts away 😅
Amazing skill
The *bolts* though, just tossing them
@@FedoraSpunk No way he's throwing away the bolts
@@ianmangham4570 no no, I meant tossing them aside like he just knows which ones go back where
This man disassembled the transmission like it was a lego set.
I can disasseble certain engine models in less than 15 minutes, drop an entire engine from a car in less than 30 minutes , harness intack, why? And i a mechanic genius, no, just years if experience
@@nipponsuxs Exactly. Just love seeing experts at work.
@@nipponsuxs where can i start learning on engines and all that? Im still a young soul
@@nipponsuxs I'm sure if you made a video about we would have the same reaction if not better about your work
@@katastrofe6388 yes im competent in the work i do since ive been doing it over 25yrs
As a mechanic (not a transmission shop) it is heartwarming to see his hands move with precision, knowing all too well every nook and cranny, disassembling effortlessly. Shows how much he has learned his craft. Amazing job. God bless you.
Very well observed and very eloquently spoken.
As a former mechanic and workshop owner I agree completely.
@@felixcat9318 The key word is care, if you care more about delivering quality than focusing on getting the payment then you will never need to advertise. I hate how mechanics and all tradesman almost always will never admit their fault or apologise when they know they are in the wrong, watching them come up with all sort of excuses everything but the truth is enough to make you vomit
@@GoblinUrNuts Too right, but the ones who do this sort of thing do it on purpose cause they don't give ra rats, and are on the take. There's the ones who do it honestly by doing it right, the others cut corners and take you for a shaft. They will get their reward
It's important to say what will be getting for your quote, and don't get carried away with the small talk cause that's how shysters work to bluff you into giving them the job. Get tough and say why should I give you the job, let them answer and then say thanks I will think it over and get back to you. When you give faith in men blindly you will get screwed
I was thinking the same.
I may have found the last honest mechanics on earth
Scotty Kilmer is grouching
I’m here 👍🏽
My guys are honest, but they're never cheap. That's the thing. Pay for good work. Don't go cheap.
Chrisfix is typing...
They are out there but they are hard to find because people do them bad lol
I don't know how I got to this video just randomly strolling thru CZcams. But I watched the entire thing! It's amazing watching a true craftsman working.
Me Too! lol
Cheers to that
This is my America.
Dude, seriously. I was watching air disaster videos and I've been through three of these transmission videos now... how did I get here?
It always amazes me how a small shop does the best work unfortunately most of his knowledge will go with him
I have absolutely no idea what's going on and have never seen the inside of a transmission, but this was really cool.
Aaand, he totally explained, disassemble, and recommend
IN 20 MINUTES

The parts .... I’d be screwed
Planetary gears...cringe
I'm in cyber security world and appreciate the work they do.
the amount of old school no fucks given because you know exactly how it goes back together is immaculate
I’m an auto body tech for 15 years and watching this makes me feel like a rookie. The amount of knowledge you have sir is impressive. My hat is off.
The vast majority of tech are hazardous to engines and parts. The whole industry is set in a way that the money goes to the wrong people and there are no mechanics well trained and well paid anymore except people like him who are the owner and the builder in one person.
@@goognamgoognw6637 : As a professional 25yr+ mechanic/technician, I can say that you are 100% correct!
Many so-called "mechanics" aren't worth a damn.
I don't rebuild transmissions, as I have absolutely no desire to do so.
I wish this fella lived closer to me, I could supply him with plenty of transmission work, and would happily pay him for a job done properly the 1st time.
I was lost 2 minutes after he started.
A true master of his craft. Malcolm Gladwell says you need 10,000 hours to master something. This guy has like 40,000 hours. It would be a shame if someone isn't trying to learn everything this man has to teach.
Sounds like his son is pretty attentive and knowledgable. I’m glad he’s recording his pops and sharing him with us internet lurkers🙏🏼💜💪🏽💪🏽 . Without youtube and his son sharing this, these amazing skills and knowledge would be lost to time im sure
he uploads to youtube. everyone’s learning
@@NoGloveD I'm not talking about watching a couple videos on CZcams.
Richard must have absorbed so much oil through his skin over 40 years that I bet he shifts gear when he walks 😁😁
He probably has to change his liver every 50k miles
@@svtirefire 😁😁
And he doesn't look negatively effected by it. Now days a mechanic will not pop a hood without putting gloves on.
Was also thinking this 😭 can’t be good on the body
Yeah my professor in my technician class said that having car fluids absorb through your skin can really hurt your health
3 Dislikes are from the shop that built it twice .
🤣
23 of them now . I’m in Canada what shot are they talking about . I would like to do my own research my self
🤣
Where do you see that. I'd like to see it.
@@berniemiller1217 . . . .they were joking
That man is a proper mechanic. Knows every bit of the transmission inside and out. He could literally strip it in the dark.
Don't mind me I'm just here for the airgun sounds lol.
Honey, trans went out on my truck. Oh, and by the way, we're moving to Texas!
Lol😂😂
Scotty moved to tennessee
Smart Man
Great minds think alike 👍
This man is an artist. Just a master of this craft. Doesn’t second guess where things are. Just naturally takes it apart and knows what piece to pull on. What screws come off next. Educating us along the way. Respect.
it´s like watching a surgeon
I hope this guy is a mentor to future mechanics. There isn’t enough guys like this out there. I’d love to have this guys knowledge
You've taught us so much about tearing down,
And diagnosing,
But now we want rebuild,
Much love from Motherland KENYA 🇰🇪🇰🇪
“I know what goes on in this town”

I wish these shops would just close down an go away lol, That was lovely to hear.
Lol
To many parts for me
I like how he didn't call out the shop. Good genuine people.
@@AGNDAHOUSE he never does
I've gone down the rabbit hole on many things, but automatic transmissions make my head hurt. Fascinating
As A retired mechanic who refused to _ever_ rip off a customer I really appreciate your ethics!
Good on ya man!
I really hope their customer used this video as evidence and sued the other shop.
@First Name Last Name I'd hope they'd get their costs covered when they won. But, you're right, that could be a risk.
@First Name Last Name small claims costs almost nothing
I was thinking the same thing ! And I wood demand my money back or threaten to go to the local TV station and talk to a news reporter. Crooks like that should be exposed !
@First Name Last Name maybe not if you showed it to the local TV news station
@First Name Last Name when you sue someone those fees are included in the settlement. Idk who told you that
This ol boy knows his business and seems to really care about his service and product. I wish him all the success in the world.
I'm a physician and I can't stop watching your videos. It is a joy to watch a true "Master" at his craft. There are very few of you out there. Keep up the most excellent work !!
This stuff is cheap. The first thing I worked on was 10 million dollars.
man, it took me 2 months to rebuilt a t5 a few years back. seeing an auto is possibly the most terrifying thing ive ever seen
this man needs to teach his work ethic and skill set to other transmission mechanics.
This is absolutely sad, I can’t believe that trans shop screwed this guy over twice. God Bless the guys at Precision Transmission.
@fran nowak , he never mentions the shops name, only that it’s in Amarillo Texas where Precision Transmission is located.
@fran nowak , I don’t think they are a chain, probably just coincidence in the name.
You’re not the only one that deals with shotty builders. Probably 60% of my business is fixin other shops remans...
That was my experience also Jeffrey. I built engines all the time the customer had already paid big bucks to have built at other shops. Brake jobs customers had paid for new rotors, calipers, only to find one or two pads changed. I don't have to explain you've seen it. I would say you've seen it all but I found that not so. Just when I thought I'd seen it all only to be blown away. The car business is full of crooks
@Sir Honks-Alot may have also been shitty
@@BB-rn6so It's awful up here in Seattle. Every shop I've dealt with is full of thieves, even the tire shop franchises. Took my car in for brake pads once, they came back and told me I had to replace the rotors and calipers too, at $1400. I went home and changed the pads myself, and measured the rotors while I was down there. They were WAY within tolerances, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with the calipers. A different shop once told me that $900 each for tires on my 2010 Sonata was a totally normal price and I shouldn't bother shopping around.
Hi my name is jorge and I'm an r and r guy wanting to build for a living eventually because I'm crazy as fuck for transmissions. I absolutely love transmission work....
I've binge watched these for the last couple of weeks.
The issue you'll have will be overwork from all this great advertising.
Watching from Auckland New Zealand.
Sir, you are just amazing. It’s an honor to watch a master at his craft . I’m so grateful that you make these videos. Thankfully, people like you still exist!
Buy once, cry once. If it lasts twice as long, it costs half as much.
You beat me to it!
I'll have to remember that one
Good one Bro
Thats a slick little saying thanks sir
I wouldn't be surprised if the other shop quotes the same price or higher. So with your logic wouldn't work.
"Get a hold of the customer and he'll be real excited that he got got again."
Yea, "excited" is one possible word. A real polite word, I expect.
Rich does seem like a polite and courteous man. When I heard him say I thought, "Yeah, I bet his customer will be excited.... or pissed off".
Man it's hard to watch a reveal of a customer getting dicked by a shop. As a person who doesn't know anything about vehicles, I appreciate your honesty with your customers. Plus, you can tell by how fast and thorough you are that you have been doing this for a long time and it's nice to see someone actually know their stuff.
Thank you for taking care of the customer! When we spend our hard earned money we need our stuff fixed right the first time. Again thank you so much!!!!!
The world needs more good people like you guys at your shop!!!!!
Your videos gave me the confidence to tear down my first automatic transmission! A 2WD A4LD out of 90 Ranger, so thank you! I love how wholesome this channel is ‘OOH LORD let me back up a minute, my loving wife owns it too’ 😂👍
Much respect to to for taking on that challenge, when I ran my own workshop I always encouraged my customers to learn to do their own mechanics.
Some people couldn't understand why a workshop owner would do that but I liked teaching and encouraging my customers to know more about their motorcycles and how they worked.
I think he could take apart that transmission blindfolded.
No joke. I would need a 30' long bench so I could lay the entire transmission out , just to remember in what order it would go back together.
He said in another video that he should try it.
@@niteshadow1 LOL. Nice.
Theres times when working on a car were your eyes are usless so its called doing it by brail touch
@@lejeffe1663 braille? Lol tf
I've been at it 25 years and I learn something new everytime I watch. Thanks Mr Richard for educating us again!
Thank you for restoring my faith in transmission specialists. Watching you work is incredibly satisfying. Keep up the good work and God Bless you!
When I worked for an auto shop years ago, there was always the suspicion that "another shop screwed it up" was code for "I tried to fix it and f'd it up".
More than once, through talking to the person about what really happened, we were able to find out that the customer was trying to cover for their own shortcomings.
Well more than once I’ve buttoned things back up and took the car to a shop. I break the ice with, “I need two quotes, how much and how much if I worked on it first.”
I dont know why people lie. If I fuck it up Ill be honest with the shop. Look I thought I could do X but I dont have the right tools or I did Y and it blew up. Just charge me what you need to.
@@nate6386 Honestly honesty pays, i work at a computer store and when a customer admits they fucked up trying to fix it themselves i admire them for their willingness to try and subsequently admit when it didn't go well, besides we all start somewhere.
In many cases, I’d agree. But considering he’s pulling mutilated factory stock parts out of a “built” transmission, I think this is beyond customer intervention other than he bet on the wrong horse... twice.
@@erikj.2066 In this case I do agree that the customer probably got hosed.
Good lord you’re some technician. Hats off!
I know nothing about transmissions, but you sir are awesome. Honest, and thurough, you can't ask for anything more.
I’d trust any mechanic if he so openly displayed his knowledge of his craft openly on CZcams for all the world to see.
Richard is the snap ring whisperer...
" I know whats goes on in this town" Savage !!
I really like the fact that you are honest in your work ethic. And, that you aren't afraid to call out crap work for what it is.
Richard,I'm 70 and was fascinated at the video. I had an '89 New Yorker and had to repair the Transmission twice! (Orlando, FL area) How you guys can remember how to put that thing back together is nothing short of miraculous. Thanks for the insight and review. Made my day!
That is crazy. That's why Richard and Trent make it happen. When a shop has the stones to video their work, says it all. That's why I follow you gentlemen!! Keep up the excellent work!!
You guy's rock.
Honesty, integrity, and pride in your craft!
I don’t know a thing about transmissions, but was amazed watching this by how easy he made it look!
He just throws everything in a pile when explaining and disassembling 😂. This guy could do this with his eyes closed
It's honest people like yourself are the reason I haven't given up on humanity long live Texas
Not defending the " other shop " as they seem to be a repeat offenders,, but in my 40 years of professional wrenching, if anybody can find a weak / defective product / part - it'll be a farmer.
Many years ago an older farmer told me " you ain't working hard enough if ya ain't breaking something " 🤔
You ain't wrong with that statement
We spend more time fixing than farming usually some years it works out and you're like this was a short season weird
Yep. Farmers will use what they have to do a task, too often it's something never designed for the task.
That's partly true, I grew up around farming and I found that most of the farmers I work with use there trucks as trucks and don't try to kill them pulling too heavy.
A 4L60e can handle a stock engine for 140k miles without changing the fluid and filter.
Much respect, I can do general maintenance on my car, but this level of skill is on a level I can't imagine. Thanks for showing us what quality work looks like and how much you care. Your customers are lucky to know you.
Richard is in such demand that he's working Sundays. This man has a gift. It's God given. They don't teach you this stuff in trades school
I had to laugh after you guys mentioned multiple times I hope this isn’t broken. Other shops are just rubbing their hands together for more money to charge the customer. When you are honest and do a good job reputation keeps you in business and you don’t have to make all the money on one job. I can’t wait for the build videos. Thanks guys.
What’s sad is; some shops will show you parts from another transmission that’s destroyed and say it’s from yours and charge you the customer like it was from your trans. I’ve worked for several places and have caught a couple doing that. I didn’t stick around there long after finding that out.
My jaw just dropped watching that transmission get pulled apart.
Chevy 350 has less than 150 parts. The turbo 350 transmission or 400 found attached to it has over 300 parts, most of which are tiny little metal rings.
Professional, committed, knowledgeable, experienced. Reminds me of my Navy service, with missile submarines and learning from a couple of career, dedicated Chiefs. Old shipmate buddy on the west coast totally agrees and we are so thankful for the things we learned. Long time ago- '65-'68. Oh yes, if you know of a transmission repair facility in the Balt-Wash area,
There's something immensely satisfying watching someone do something technical who is extremely skilled in what they do.
Yes, whoever worked on it last didn't do a good job. But, whoever drove this vehicle, drove the hell out it while it was failing.
Thanks for this great video.
True, but they paid to have it beefed up so they COULD drive it that way, and didn't get what they paid for.
@@countryboyoutdoors7963 Fair assertion.
Love watching a pro taking something apart. 20 minutes and the whole thing was apart. Always wanted to see that. Great job!
It’s great that you guys are out there to do the right thing for people thank you for sharing guys.
Wow I have no idea what I’m watching but I know skill when I see it. You’re so efficient but still so very careful. You know exactly where everything is it’s like second nature. Amazing
just found this channel i fell in love already if more mechanics were like this i would mind paying extra cause i know its quality service
This is precisely why I want to drive from WI to TX to have my transmission rebuilt.
I don't need any transmission repair and I want to have him look at mine. I live in California.
I've worked as a machine builder/restorer and we relied on taking very many photos of the strip down phase. This is on a completely different level, much respect.
I like a person that takes pride in his work that's tells me he a man of his word and you can trust him
When I need transmission work, I hope I find a shop just like yours! I watched this come apart but darned if I could put that thing together again. A video explaining the part and how it works would be great. Auto transmissions are like black magic to me.
Great professionalism gentlemen, 1 in 10,000!
One thing i learned from this channel, i can take apart a trans with 4 tools.. 🤣🤣🤣
It's truly a pleasure to watch a master of their craft like yourself work clearly with a passion and pride in their work.
The old adage: Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.
This was satisfying af to watch you work so professionally! Good stuff 🔥
All my brothers were mechanics working on 18 wheelers to cars. To see your training and expertise put together is excellent. Thanks
Ok straight up, it takes balls to have the courage to call out other shops in you’re own town. But when bad things are being done, it’s good to know that there are some who will speak up.
It’s ironic that he uses an autopsy table to take these transmissions apart.
This is like a forensic autopsy.
It’s actually a pretty common way to do it. Dad’s a mechanic of 40+ years and he calls his a “wet bench”.
@iTheGeek
In an earlier video ha stated that this was an old autopsy table
Table has got a drain hole for fluids
Well duh can't you see all the blood that's in a transmission
Just do a time laps build to start with. Stick a Go Pro up over the bench and just go at it.
I marvel at his ability to take a trans apart....but to put that puzzle back together. My hats off to you sir.
I'm addicted to the sound of metal and tools and plastics and everything all clinking together!!
Man this guy amazes me every time he stripes one of these down
You are honestly the best I have ever seen trans man 🤘👏👏
i too am a mechanic, i don't build transmissions but i take pride in my work and i stand by it and i always want to have guaranteed work going out the door. its always great to see fellow mechanic brothers putting good work out there for people. its so rare now days, everyone just wants to take your money and run
This guy is AWESOME!!!! Love the way he just explains everything! I bet he goes to bed every night feeling great about being an honest human being. Thank you for being one of the few. I’m a shade tree but always learning. Love to work on my own autos but can’t imagine having to perfect other peoples cars. Has to be stressful. Thank you so much for doing right by the consumer 😇
Omg my brain is exploding with him just keep taking things apart.
I can hear the doors closing on the other ship now. What a difference y guys are there in Texas.
You have the gift. Reminds me of days before i retired. I always thought the tabs on reverse drum bent because input sprag slipping on high rev runaway downshift , i believe i was told that by Gil Younger . Keep up the good work, there sure needs to be more like you.
Fantastic, educational! Thanks so much for sharing your experience. It’s great to learn from someone who knows their business inside and out.
0:26 "I been in this town for 40 somethin years, an I know what goes on in this town, so" ...I reckon that's all we need to know partner.
NO! I want to know WHO the other shop is, hear them called out publicly!
@@matt8863 I do. But how funny would it be to call them out?
I feel proud when I change the plugs on my V8 but this guy just disassembled 200 pieces in half hour explaining each one and did this flawlessly. Incredible and amazing. Plus the guy recording knew his stuff as well. First transmission disassemble video Ive seen and I’m glad it was this one.
God bless honest mechanics for keeping people on the road. I thought I was mechanically inclined until I watched this video. Transmission work is a hell of a skill.
Thank you Richard! With your help we will never have one of the bad shops get their hands on our transmissions
This a great channel with great content thanks Precision!
Great video showing a true CRAFTSMAN at work!
Now thats a master Mechanic , someone that has the skill and the knowledge to do a work that only a few people can do with such pride and precision .
Wow. Watching u disassemble that trans was awesome. Glad u help your customers as best as you can. I'm sorry you see that kind of stuff everyday.
I think he has done this before, make it look so easy, amazing how transmissions works.
Me: "Oooh, a round thing......another round thing....some round things......more round things......".
Took my pedal bike apart year's ago, never could put it back together......I needed this guy living next-door 🚪 😀👍
I see a very happy attorney in this customer’s future. I bet there’s a class-action suit potential.
