"I didn't do much." the understatement of the year. You were the perfect helper, with knowledge, encouraging and supportive. No man could want more.
You’re very kind, sure appreciate you!!
I always tell my wife…I understand that you don’t “get mechanic stuff” …if you would just sit in the garage and throw tools at me or chat with me that I would appreciate it…it is all about sharing life experiences together 😊
When I joined the AF and got to my tech school in Amarillo. I starred at the parts that went into a jet engine!!!!!! But after a hundred rebuilds? I still looked at the TO’s. Your trannie has me saying oh my god! I can’t really build stuff without directions! Good job guys!!!!! I mean darn good job. 😊
Aaron, I admire how you aren't afraid to tare into something even though unsure of exactly what to do and in the end, get the job done!! Just keep doing what you do best bud!!!
Exploded view diagrams are the best! Especially for stuff like that.
Finley looks totally stoked! 😄
Nice that you are open about the lack of knowledge and hope younger viewers try to get involved too thank again🙏
You did awesome Erin really pleased to watch that
I realize that I am coming in here 9 months after the posting of this video it is true none the less.
Aaron and you just put a 1,000 piece puzzle together without a picture on the box that the puzzle came in.
I congratulate both of you for this massive undertaking for a project that you hadn't done before.
I enjoy the honesty, willingly showing mistakes …..very refreshing,that’s why I subscribed
Aaron you did it A lot more Complicated than anything i would Tackle. Emily you’re a great support
Impressed. Looking forward to seeing that bad boy on the road.
Hi there I appreciate your video's I am an old guy my mind is good for 3 days i usually remember where stuff goes! but when a machine shop or waiting for parts takes 2 weeks or so , pictures or videos are helpful you are not alone! most people cannot fix or repair anything. I am waiting for brake hoses for a 79 VW- now! Mr Wiese
Love the team work you too from Windsor Ontario Canada. Keep going with the build we love it.❤
There's nothing the two of you can't accomplish. Aloha to the two of you🤙🏼
Excellent work! Under it all, you figured the concept of how it operates then it made sense to you and me, thanks for the effort.
For a guy who "Doesn't know what he's doing", you are doing a great job! My hats off to you Sir! No way I'm trying that project, not that I'm likely to have to anytime soon. I love your comments to those of us watching. There are always going to be those that have something negative to say but you take it in stride and brush them off. I love how great you guys work together and bring us along for the ride! Glad you are back doing what you love and providing us with great content to enjoy! Thanks so much to you both!
16:17 I watch because of how you and your husband interact ......priceless
A little thought Aaron; when this car was built at the Bowling Green Cadillac factory, the transmission/differential/torque tube were installed as an assembly- along with the engine and front suspension crossmember. But you and Em are the people for this
Awesome job Guys y'all are doing Great 👍💯 from Alabama 🇺🇸👍
This was intense! Aaron Good Job & Emily nice back up , Hope all is good , Good Luck ...........
You too are the best 🙂 Aaron you are werry good , love the war you just do it 👌👌👌👍 Jan from Denmark
Good work. I would of yelled and cursed more and then felt bad cause Emily was there with all that positivity. Way to get it done sir
Sometimes all a man needs is her company but you are both helping each other. God bless.
Good job guysWe know the pain of learning something new .had it been my task we might be sweeping up the dust that was once a transmission while headed out for a new unit.
Just think the next one will only be 1/3 the difficulty level.
Central California watching
A brass hammer, AND a brass punch! Very impressive.
Great job! Watching that stress leave Arron s face priceless! Bad news?!! Always replace your race with your bearing , for some of them are machined to match! (A feller once dropped this knowledge on me) hopefully not in this case! I always have extra parts, you did great! When Emily picked up that race I said uh oh! 😂
Congrat's on your first t56 trans build.😁
Dude, you guys killed it 👌👍🏻
When you take stuff apart like transmissions, well, it's not for the faint of heart. Thank God for cell phones!
While watching and I have severe tinnitus in both ears, mind you 24/7/365, I had to pause because I could hear the morning doves cooing and wasn't sure if they were outside my door 😊
❤ what ya'll do, thank you !
I've rebuilt/ repaired a number of 3 and 4 spd.trans.back in the day and a handfull of automatics but that Corvette trans.would definitely intimidate KUDOS getting that Swiss watch monster all back together and no parts left over 😆👍😁✌
I love watching you guy,s ,you work good togather !
You two are a TEAM.
Each of you does a part to make the machine run.
Sure appreciate your encouragement!! We don’t always do it well but that’s our goal!!! 😅🙏🏼
@Flying Sparks Garage
Life with throw obstacles in your path.
The difference is made in how you react to them.
You chip away at the stone long enough, soon you have a beautiful statue.
I am so impressed, to tackle such a task, I might need to hire you
I have alphabet soup behind my name in the social sciences but I have always immensely impressed by people who can take complex things apart and put them back together. Aaron's one of those guys.
Great job amazing rebuild he’s diff great talent! Can wait to see you drive it . Y’all too cute - your smile is adorable
Just thought I'd take this opportunity to wish you guys well.
All the best and thanks for the education and entertainment.
It's always a two for one with you guys.😉
Great video outstanding teamwork. Looking forward to the next episode. 😊
Love y’all great work. Work where you feel comfortable. We won’t ask Emily to work on table either. 😂
Hey Aaron , I think you are ready to rebuild transmissions and Emily is a great assistant, Mr.Finley did a fine job supervising , LoveJim ❤❤❤
Awesome job another one for the books 🎉🎉❤❤❤
Great to see update Corvette transmission rebuilt
Well done guys 👍,i still would have grabbed Derek's one lol 😂
NWS from Germany! Ooohhhh.
Nice brass drift set, too.
When Aaron chucked that synchro I almost spit my drink out 😂😂😂 I’d have done the EXACT same thing 😂😂
At 38:17 when Aaron talks about being stressful and shop dog in the back is relaxed and gives a big ol stretch!
THATS THE FINDLEY DAWGHY N HES AWESOME N SUPERVISING WORX FOR THE LITTLE FELLA ...
Aaron and Emily, sarcastic and sunny the perfect mix like sweet and salty popcorn. And Aaron you were using a press. The original mark one press. A hydraulic one is just a fancy slow swinging hammer when you really think about it.
Alls I can say is HOLY MOLLY. YOU ARE ONE SMART MAN ARON. KUDOS TO YOU BOTH.
Not worried about the challenge, you guys won the battle before you even started.Great Job.🎉
I remember many years ago when I rebuilt my first manual transmission. I had to wait until everybody left the shop so I wouldn't get distracted lol. Great job guys. Love yall.
Well I have rebuild a many of engines, but when I was a kid I remember going to a transmission shop and thinking to myself I’ll pay someone to do that. Good on ya for taking this on.
I’d never gone into a transmission until my C4 needed a rebuild and I thought, why not? With CZcams along for the ride, I had the same mix of fear and excitement. Congrats. Aaron is Da Man!
Amazing job Aaron my head hurt watching you putting it back together.
Nice work whit that T56!
That was a really big job Aaron. Finley slept the whole time. Lol Everything else that needs fixing on the vette will be a breeze.
I'm sure that corvette has a much better home than it did before.
Well you love birds so far the transmission looks good now. You put it in the car and let's see how it kick ass....... I know it's gonna work you guys do good work to the next video take care
one gear at a time,love your humor keep it up and keep on trying
Glad to see you guys back, go at your own pace your health is more important than anything we will wait for your videos.
How rock star is it to say “I rebuilt my corvettes trans” 🤘🏻
You guys are awesome and I love watching your videos I think it's going to be fine so keep on keeping on
@ 23.01 I have stuck the bearing in the freezer for this step.. Looks great Arron!
In addition to taking lots of pictures, threading parts onto a piece of baling wire in the order and orientation they are removed helps get things re-assembled correctly. I have really enjoyed this series and appreciate all the effort you guys put into your channel and your builds.
My first transmission rebuild was a Rt 910 10sp it looked like the corvette transmission when I got it apart but a lot more gears great video keep up the good work God bless from GA and stay safe
Aaron & Emily, you guys work so well together, just a great team working on your projects. Aaron, it appears you did an outstanding job on the Xmission, can't wait to see it Vroooom down the highway.
I agree.
Thank you this video takes me back to when I watched my DAD rebuild my turbo 400 Transmission for my Chevelle my Dad has passed now
The guys that make their living rebuilding transmissions
DON'T WANT you to have good drawings
taking pic is good
teardown videos even better :):):)
Impressive. Two tire transmission rebuild center should make anyone who works on their own machines smile.
Glad you're back from your trip, hope you had a good time, have missed you guys and have been waiting for a video to drop.
Well done guys.
That looked ‘Easy Peasey, Lemon Queezy!’ 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😎
Well THAT was a major undertaking... and I doubt I would have had the guts... or as you say the right "disposition" or whatever... to even attempt it... lol. Nice job Ying and Yang!
The chances of me needing to rebuild a T56 box is closer to zero that it is anything else but I just love to watch Aaron work. He's so thoughtful and patient - a real enthusiast!
This was a GREAT tutorial on "critical thinking" and teamwork. This is why holding onto the old parts is so important until the job is completed. Bob Ross never taught you how to paint the EXACT picture he was doing, he taught you how to be equipped to paint any picture. Awesome episode as always! Happy Weekend!
Love the Bob Ross analogy!! Yes sir!!
Awesome!!!! Y’all are amazing!
Congratulations guys I'm excited for you👍
Yea she helps, that Aaron is one lucky feller to have a beautiful wife /model that loves to do cars like he does. If you need me to Aaron I can come over and make sure she holds the camera still...lol All joking aside You guys are a hoot to watch and I am enjoying the videos !
Fantastic work!!
Good job on the transmission build.
Thanks for reminding me why I never rebuilt a transmission lol… Definitely beyond my skill set
Aaron is a very smart man and I like watching him do different things a man can learn alottt from him
Maybe one of you can teach me how to use this phone to say what I am thinking lol both of you are great I really injo watching you both do your project keep up the great work and God bless your family 👪
Great video, so pleased you decided to have a go yourselves. Good job !!
I'm glad to see you guys are back at it. It's really good to see Aaron's feeling up to working more. Also I hope his problem hasn't affected his FAA flight status.
Good job tearing into one of Chevy's bad ideas. Love watching you work through problems!!!
Thats a complex project to tackle , but you both did it , good job
When you are good you are good.
Great job! I’ve done a couple Of automotive trans and a couple of transport truck trans. It’s always stressful trying to figure out the reassembly.
Your patience and persistence is amazing. Great job, can't wait to see it work.
You guys ROCK !!
I use Permatex 2 on my gaskets b/c if it has to come apart due to forgetting something, it’s easy to come apart without tearing the gasket.
sound's like you guy's did a good job, good work.
I love the "getter done" attitude! Taking it apart several times is just part of learning, heck watching you I'm ready to rebuild one ~ but my friend Rob won't lend me his Corvette darn it....
exciting! nice job, can’t wait to see first drive.
Great content guys 😊. Thanks for sharing
Good job Aaron, with support from Emily and Finley.
Great video! I have always been afraid of transmission and rear end work. You are bold enough to take it on.
Glad to see it back together! Great job!!!
Emily, you two make a good team! You do so much! Aaron, I have all the confidence in the world, that when the rubber hits the concrete floor, the vette will run like it is suppose too. Just don't burn the tires off!!! Ha,Ha,Ha!!
Great job reassembling this gearbox, and hope you guys will get a lot of good, trouble-free miles out of that Vette! Aaron & Emily, you both rock, keep up the great work and cool videos! God bless you both!
Y’all have done a great job. Haven’t had to tear into either of my t56’s but I’m sure it’s down the road. Did just finish going thru my Liberty pro shifted A833 though and currently setting up the Hurst vertigate linkage using heim joints and it sucks. In days past I had fox bodies all with t5 transmissions and I feel your pain screwing with blocker rings instead of brass synchros. The only vette I’ve owned was a C3 so no torque tube but if I were in your shoes I’d put down the first 2,000 easy to wear everything in together well then drive it like I hated it. That’s just my perspective though, drive em till the tongues hangin out.
Glad you guys are in the end stages of the process. I’m sure a lot of other folks would have panicked and either went into debt to pay someone else to fix the problem or more likely have taken a loss trying to trade the car but y’all knuckled down and forged ahead. That’s a win in my book which deserves congratulations for sure. Keep up the great work. 👍
Great Job ,way to stay after it ......
XP's Garage, a chap in the Show Me state did an awesome step by step teardown and reassembly of this tyranny. I recommend his videos.
