4R100 can you find the problem? That’s what the noise was!!!

good morning this is richard back at you we got randy's 2001 ford in the house this morning uh it's got a 4-100 in it uh come in uh noisy barely moving we actually had to push it in because it's just so noisy and we didn't want to tear anything else up but uh also my wife come in this morning and she said richard i want you to work smarter not harder i said really she handed me this beautiful bag and guess what it had in it guys a brand new half inch milwaukee beautiful beautiful i don't have to borrow trents no more it's got these beautiful protector i'm gonna put on it and look here guys the newest version oh my gosh i'm so excited i got a brand new protector for it yeah trench yards yeah thank you i don't have to yell at trent anymore so hey trent let me borrow your tools so but this will be the first time it's never had a socket on it yet so we're going to knock this thing out really quick randy we appreciate you bringing your vehicle to us and let us get uh to do it so let's get started on it so like i said this thing was barely moving whining like crazy we haven't took the pan off yet so we're all going to get to see what type of surprises we have in the pan so i'm kind of curious we get this little odd bolt out here you can't really get a socket on or anything because it's got this little nub on it there ain't no distance here so you always have to wrench it out so now this is my first experiment or using this gun here so it's going to be a little different so i got it on three so that's basically full power which i'd rather have it on it right now really smooth pretty quiet too there's no struggle yeah pretty quiet too i'm going to take this little sensor out here first that i don't break my rear sensor and then i'm going to take my front one out really quick too i don't want to get too far ahead of myself just because i want to use this beautiful tool here guys as i get these out so we don't break anything we don't have any metal on it here that's good see if we have any metal on the rear one now these will interchange they'll go front to rear there's no difference in the the two get our transfer case vent line off here they always have these uh tube hose connectors right here that keep the hose mounted to the case we always have to replace it because they just break so we'll run new lines and stuff like that back there too because they're just also brittle but they got these clamps here that'll clamp to the the ledge here and then hold the hose at the same time you can see this little hole actually like that pretty cool design but every time you got to replace those hoses they're always just so brittle you want to be careful with this because this is cast iron it physically is pretty heavy oh got them all now we do have our parking assembly in here right through here you can see how this works even i'll put it in park see how that locked in i'll take it out of park put it back in park and then as your vehicle rolls bang locks it apart then let it turn sometimes you can get these out without taking this bracket at least we'll try for just a second i'm not gonna mess with it really nice uh tool there my wife i really appreciate that for sure now i like this one here too for my valve bodies and stuff over here in my build area uh it works really good i like the sensitivity button on it to where it doesn't tighten down too tight so i could just barely tap my pan gaskets and stuff like that before i come back and speed handle everything up so we got our neutral safety switch here you always want to be careful you don't want to damage it getting it off sometimes you do it's just part of the the scene you gotta just buy another one but a lot of rust in here now let me show you something here guys if you can see this right here i'm gonna lay this down my point at this you see that little line right there and that little line right there what you do is you put the transmission in neutral this shifter in neutral and then when you bolt this back on you line them notches up and then you tighten it down you notice this is elongated so you can turn it you line that up right there tighten it down now this is set so pretty pretty easy way to do that if you've never done one before if you ever have a code for it doesn't want to start anymore now we're going to get over here to our cooler bypass tube make sure that doesn't tip i believe it's this one or is it my bigger one okay now what we do here this thing here if we have any type of restriction in the cooler of the oil gets too cold up front if you go to the mountains and it's minus 19 degrees or something like that it won't want to push the fluid through the cooler so this tube is designed to bypass and we replace every one of them in our overhaul kits here this is a new one here goes in here it has a check ball and a spring here that can get stuck and if this ever gets stuck and quits bypass and your cooler gets restricted and now we have a transmission failure and it's going to be gear train failure it's not going to be clutch failure because it's going to melt the to the ground so this is a must on every one you do they'll come with new bolts gaskets you know they'll come with everything now some of them might not come with these but everyone i buy comes with it because also there's a spring and a check ball in here this is a one-way check valve can you see that down in the trench that ball in spring so now also there's another one in here so that's why we replaced this that's a a very critical area where a failure can occur occur uh and it'll be the worst type of failure uh because it'll restrict the cooler whether it actually melts the gear train to the ground so now he does pull a lot of heavy weight uh we're going to be putting a billet converter in here uh this is a factory triple disc here it's got the the little dimples in it all the way around like this plus it's in a diesel it's got six lugs now the one we got coming in here won't have these lugs no more it'll be a different backing still be a triple disc uh and there's just no blooming of the converter under heavy loads and stuff like this gentleman's gonna be pulling so fluid looks pretty red so i'm really curious to see what we find here this is a heavy transmission and we'll take it apart right there like that first [Music] i hear they make a glove for this one too i'm going to have to get i don't want to get that one too dirty if i get my new glove on there so i want to take care of my equipment especially when it's uh new the m12 hasn't missed a lick though huh no sir this little drill right here is a working machine now we have zero metal in the pan just a lot of metal on the magnet now this is you can tell here this looks like fresh grindings like we possibly have a planetary failure converter starting to fail something like that and these filters right here what they do is they suck right off the top of that magnet worst place you can put a filter suction let me try and pour this out a little bit you can just see all the metal in that filter look at that guys so this happened really quick uh i'm gonna say probably converter failure uh just filled the filter full of metal i mean it's just full of glitter if you pour it out you can just i mean it just it's everywhere but if you notice this filter sits right here beside that magnet so now what it does is it just grabs all that metal insulin just picks that fill up into the filter but this is all fresh stuff this happened like yesterday this thing happened so quick and and plugged the filter up that uh hopefully it didn't do a whole whole lot of damage to it i mean this gentleman could have been on his game and uh writing it happened he turned it off and that and that's probably what it did look like to me i mean the guys okay right yes well miss teresa just took over the camera from trent trent had to go do some errands really quick thank you teresa we got a bunch of 10 millimeter nuts here on these studs i like this because these studs uh gives everything in alignment when you put it all down in here you don't have to have uh special alignment tools or anything like that it pretty much aligns it all for you now i do have alignment pins actually for some other valve bodies that we have to align with pins now this is our accumulator body here this is the most critical part of this training one of the one of the most critical parts when we go back and build our unit this thing here gets a lot of attention this physically gives you shift feel we can shorten our shift accumulator strokes and shorten our shifts and stuff like that and you see there's a lot of material in here just a lot of blackness coating grunt in here like say this is a two-stage accumulator system in other words it has to move two valves to soften the ship and before some of them just have one accumulator so this is a two-stage type system here this is your engagement control valve body what we do on this one here we do leave a spring out here on this one here uh and it helps reverse engagement a ton so we leave this spring out lets the valve float back and forth all by itself that's a good upgrade right there because these things have uh reverse delay issues and when we build this training back that's really what we go in here to correct one of those issues so now if you look here it's your check balls right here you have a big one here you have a big one here and you have two small ones right here now if you notice you have another trough right here you could put a check ball there accidentally if you did the tranny's not going to work now if you come over and look at this plate where this trough is it has two holes where this trough is it only has one hole that's why you do not put a ball in here now you notice they did oblong it i guess they did that maybe so if somebody did put a ball in here it won't seal up totally but if you put a ball in there you're going to create issues so and the ball is a lot smaller than your this ball right here there's two balls in here you see the size difference now these are a like a teflon style ball they're really hard fi i can't remember what they call that rubber con or vice something but it don't beat the plate up like metal balls do now these small ones this black one here i'm not used to you know normally they're the same color as those so i don't know where that ball comes from or it's just dissipated so much as beat the color off of it or something now this is your main valve body area here this is your shift valves and stuff like that that ball in there you can see here anytime you clean this up with air or anything this little plate right here is real easy to blow out and not know you did it so you're blowing air through here this thing will pop right out we don't really see very many issues here uh very seldom do we ever have to replace this valve body piece here i have had issues where i've had to but very seldom this you don't see a lot of wear in these this area looking for my squeezy thank you guys for sure sure grab the right one now here's your cylinder pack all the solenoids are built into one unit now we have a pwm style solenoid pack we have a non-pwm south solenoid pack i talked about this in a earlier video about somebody mixing stuff up and burning the torque converter up and stuff you don't want to mix this stuff up unless you definitely know what you're doing you don't want to break this because this uh has to go back as a poor to be rebuilt uh you can't get them new anymore if you buy them off the internet or anything like that i wouldn't recommend it buying off the internet but we buy them uh from a guy that i've been using 40 years or so and we shipped these back with cores i have a new one sitting over there in the box you can see oops you can see right here there's a brand new one here in the box that we'll be putting in it with all the transgo kit sprags clutches filters all that type stuff so all the bonded pistons there's a lot of stuff to these here [Music] very unique [Music] actually we had our amara college instructor come out yesterday evening and talk to me for a while i wanted me to come out and talk a little bit wanted me to come out and pick up a bunch of transmission cords that they're not going to be using in class anymore so we told him we'd come out and buy them all from him and donate the money to the college and stuff so we're going to be doing that so excited to go out there kind of give me heavy jibbies when they asked me to come out there so it's something i've always wanted to do like i said i had a chance back in my early days and turned it down so but uh there are some modifications you do to this plate here uh there'll be some holes uh we drill like this one here uh we drilled this one here too uh the shift kit will tell you about what size to drill actually gives you a drill bit in the kit so always do the modifications uh in the kit don't go oversized don't go grab your bigger drill and think just because you can drill a hole bigger it's going to help that's that's not what this is about so and teresa i want to thank you for them beautiful milwaukee tools there i'm going to work smarter not harder thank you now i did pull something out of here guys i didn't show you there is a pressure relief spring right here and there's a check ball that sits on top of here now the shift kit will come with a new one it looks like a little bullet that'll set down in there that way it can't bounce around it seals instantly every time where the check ball has to bounce around a little bit before it finally seats a little bit where that one there just seats every time because it's already guided into the hole so it is in the shift kit over there now if you notice here this thing's got tons of check balls in it now we have a check ball book that tells us every check ball location every training made i've got three of them actually that are really nice so we have a check ball here here here here here here here here if you notice we have a trough here no check ball guys if you put a check ball in that hole you're in trouble so you really want to be careful now if you notice this plate right here we go back to this dual hole stuff again if you notice this plate has two holes if you flip it over with the right gasket on it it even shows you it has two holes that a check ball goes there okay but if you come over here and look for this trough here it doesn't it's not there okay it's not even there for it so it does not put a check ball there if you do you're in trouble because you're gonna be plugging a hole up trying to figure out exactly where that's at let's see through the light shine that's hard and barely said it's kind of a reflection but anyway guys no check ball here always look to when you take your kit you open it up you can have four four gaskets if you notice here one two three holes one two three the other gaskets will only have these two it will not have these if you put the gasket on there and you cover that hole you're in trouble and let me tell you another reason where i messed up one time guys and i i'm not shy to show one of my mistakes because it can happen to anybody these bolts right here are lock tied in these are a hollow bolt they torque down to about nine inch pounds ten inch pounds hardly nothing at all because underneath these bolts right here the case is hollow so if you tighten them down it will contour this like here you know bevel like that well this gasket right here is thicker than this gasket right here to compromise for that bow if you over tighten this right here so what i was doing too was this bolts come with loctite on them to start with and what i started doing is i double locked tight and i put a little bit of extra red loctite on there just to make sure that these bolts never come loose because we get them in here where they come loose and that's what burn the up so we and they and they torque it such a light torquage uh that they can come loose real easy so but what happened was the way this plate sits on here if you look here see that hole right there well when i've flipped the got it built a small dripping of loctite fell onto that hole right here on this side and hardened overnight when we put the transmission in i don't remember exactly what it did it's been too long ago but the did not work so that tells you there if you put the wrong gasket on it and you cover that hole you're in trouble but i'm just telling you that the simple mistake that i made was that piece of loctite dripping down on that hole and plugging it up so if you've put the wrong gasket you're going to run in the same type of problem so let me get all these check bolts out here really quick now you can see now the check balls on this side of the are the same except the relief valve right here check ball it's a metal check ball but the shift kit does come with another ball so now we'll get these hollow center support bolts out now this one of these is your lube circuit your third gear circuit your forward clutch circuit your overdrive circuit there's a lot of circuitry right in this area right here in that bolt it's got loctite on it but man i mean you could almost take that out with your fingers that's how much they try to loosen up uh the support walks in the case and stuff like that i'll show you a little bit of wear in the case and then you can see the the loctite that they put on there now you can use these bolts over again put your own loctite on there but there are new ones in the kit and i believe the shift kit no it doesn't come with different bolts now the 480e shift kit does come with different bolts so oh we got a tight one there i'm telling you [Music] let's say i don't know if this train has been built before yet it hasn't shown any signs of any thing still got the gray factory seal that was the worst design ever made that uh had bad reactions to the fluid and stuff like that swelled up and all kinds of stuff so now we do have our lock up ring here now this is a teflon ring it's not a rubber ring like gm uses scarf cut hardened ring so hopefully i can get this out of here now let me show you something here too guys everybody wants to grab a screwdriver and pry the pump out if you pry right here and you break this land off which a lot of people want to get in here and do that you just rent the case so and that is non-repairable believe me i've never done it i learned it right off the bat uh from somebody else so let me see if i can find a different hammer this just seems a little tighter than here it comes i like doing it this way you can do a slide hammer but i like to do it this way this sample see how that just take your time don't uh [Music] just beat on it really hard use something like this uh to do it with that way you're not beating on it with a hammer hammer and we have our input shaft our pump huh so i didn't know if i was going to have to do that for you now ford has redesigned this pump multiple times so i'm hoping it's got a good diesel pump in it that we don't have to replace yeah like i said you can see the the darkening of it i have to get in here and check this a little bit better with my gloves off and clean it up we find a lot of stuff guys after the fact once we start cleaning this just has the old the worst gray seal that the ford ever made does have a wide bushing now this is a diesel uh pump it's got the biggest pump gears it's got the biggest feed holes which are these here man look at his just that almost looks like they had water in one time a little bit just staining real bad so that looks pretty good we got a set of brand new pump gears over here uh in the box ready to go too to see let's just make sure that they're the right ones because a lot of times when i order this parts and stuff you just never know what you're going to get nowadays until you open the box yep we see that a lot really nice what you do is i come in here and do this put that like that make sure you turn about three thousand four thousand it's clear it's about all you want through here but you can do it on both sides you always want to check it because just because you got brand new gears don't mean that somebody didn't mess up at the manufacturer so always take a mic and mic this gear mic this gear just to verify what you got going on get that down in there and put it back in the box excuse me missed anything here so you have a thrush washer right here turn this over don't want to get too big a hurry and not show you guys everything and i could do that really easy now we have our boost valve and stuff over here now your shift kit will come with all the new boots valve and everything right here always put that in workshop makes it work really nice we have all of our lock up system here the shift kit will come with a new spring that goes in here for lockup and also this is a true pwm pump if you look here how you can identify this there is no orifice in this hole now if it was a non-pwm there would be an orifice here the shift kit would want you to drill the feed hole out through that orifice now since this is a pwm there's no modifications to the lockup system that you're going to be doing in this area here except for changing this spring out right here and putting a new boost valve and stuff in here through the shift kit will supply now we do come in here the shift kit is also going to tell you to drill out the relief hole uh coming through the pump right here let it pull it back out see if i i might not even be able to show you yeah without knocking the seal out but there's a relief off the seal it goes right through here you can barely see it through there can you see that hole back there well you drill that hole out and then you drill the one out in here this one right here to match it that way it relieves all the pressure off your front seal if you get any bushing wear or something like that and it's going to overload the seal it can't do it anymore because you just made that hole so much bigger so there you go guys that's that now we're going to get our coast clutch drum out of here we're going to get our overdrive clutches out of here [Music] and you can see here the overdrive clutches are getting pretty wore out now we don't need we'll go with a better clutch here we don't have to add any more clutches or anything like that it's kind of already got the thickest top or the thinnest top hat you got to even add another clutch so uh but once we do our modifications to our accumulator body and stuff we're going to shorten this overdrive shift up a ton so now you have this coast clutch right here now the shift kit will come with a different snap ring here it when you put it in it won't fit you're going to have to grind the tip of it off everyone i do you have to grind it to make it fit and they want it that way that way it fits tight in the groove and it can't pop out because these are bad about laying down in here and then causing issues so your coast clutch and you got this really tiny little sprag here but you want to look here on this drum here for any wear because this sun gear is so small you got to look on both sides because you got a coast side and a drive side so now this is the the what i call pop metal you always you're going to end up seeing wear here with overdrive clutch locks onto the drum now the earlier design was a steel drum you didn't see this type of wear but once they went into the the four one hundreds and stuff they upgraded to this style drum here and uh it caused problems when they did it so we'll get our overdrive planetary and stuff out here now if this was a gas it would have aluminum planted in it but being that it's a diesel it does not it's going to have a steel planted in it all the way through get this out of here now also too they made different versions of this washer right here so you'll hang on let me talk grab one really quick and give you an idea i should have one over here and you can see the difference in the two now when they did that uh the planet's different it don't lock on here no more the other planet will have notches in here for these tabs to lock onto well this one here has this notch and it locks onto there like that then you set it down in here so but here's your sprag race they also changed this a couple times too so different style you always want to scotch bite this up make sure there's no chattering or anything like that i think it looks sure it looks really good because it sure is let me tell you guys we use that stuff everywhere now a lot of times this snap ring right here is always off now your shift kit will come with a spiral snap ring uh it's like a three-way wrap it's kind of difficult to get on but it will never come off once you get it in there so that is a really good upgrade too that the transvo did you got your bonded piss and your kit will come with it so these are always hard and shrunk uh this could be uh it'll take the overdrive clutch out all that type stuff so my table's starting to fill up guys it's amazing how many parts are in this thing when i get done now here we have our overdrive and our intermediate support the intermediate clutches on this side your overdrive clutches on this side here's one of your hollow bolts i was talking about actually excuse me i grabbed the wrong one the smaller one so it applies to here and through here now we do have you can see here how this has been walking around shiny that tells you that support's been moving in the bore okay so we always come back here and and we actually seal it right here and try to stop that when we put our new bolt and stuff in so and then we have this uh stuff like that now this is your same thing as a spring in a drum it pushes your intermediate clutch off holds it off until it needs it now you can start to see a lot of wear on these fingers right here how it's starting to cut them off oh wow see that you always want to check for that that's a real big problem these have and here we have our support we have another plastic washer they've never changed this washer on any of that another now they have changed it up here a bunch they added a bearing here they took a stat a snout off here this output shaft used to have a bushing in it on the earlier ones and they had a snout sticking out here that went in there then they didn't have this bearing but once i did away with that now they use this bearing here to support the snout instead of the output shaft so you always want to look here for any wear here's your inner or your third gear rings they've never designed these any better i wish i had done something better there because i just i think the factory cast iron ring is cheap uh it does work but you got to be careful on how high you jack the pressure up on these things when you're getting into heavy loads and stuff like that now they do make a a support that you can buy where they come in here machine this down right here and you set a snap ring in the case because if you see here how this has been wearing see these marks you can see it here these shouldn't be there in other words this thing's sitting there rubbing in the case like that down in here and i'll show you where it's done it at so you can just buy the updated one put a new snap ring down in there put their machined one in there and now you're back to where you need to be so we're going to get this intermediate clutch off here you start to see some hot spots on the steels we're starting to chatter now if you notice this here has all thick steels you might get one in here that has one thick and two thin too thin it's too thick or however i've talked to forward on this there's no instructions on which way to set these i mean if it comes in that way you put it back the way it come in and pray to god somebody ain't been in here and jacked it up so it's really hard to tell the clutch clearance here too so but so far this hasn't been jacked with so we're really blessing that part there i don't have to keep my fingers crossed and do a lot of checking insert trying to figure this thing out make sure it's 100 and then we have our engine brake band these usually come in looking brand new because you very seldom see this training manually shifted and then here we have our intermediate sprag you notice this turns this way locks to the right now we have another brand we have a brand new one over there you know look here looks really nice there's no chattering when you scotch bright that up really nice now they do make a on this washer right here this is a plastic one they do make a brass one too plastic one does hold up really nice it is not necessary to put a brass one in there now you do want to look at your sprag which we're going to be replacing it but you want to come in here and look for any chattering this thing looks really nice scotch brite this all up put some bushings back in here looks really nice now we are going to be adding one clutch to this drum right here it's already got five in here but we can put six by changing this top hat to a different top hat which actually we'll be using a forward top hat and a 350 chevy snap ring back in this drum and then we can add actually get six clutches in there so and then we have this bearing right here now some of them did not have this bearing depending on what year so you got to be really careful you notice there's no washer here and you get over here there's no place for a washer but some of these had a washer some of these had a four tab washer just like this that had notches in this drum these tabs set in and this washer set in this drum right here like that and when they did that it was the early design that had the snout here and it had the bushing down here in the input or the output shaft that's when you're going to start seeing that washer appear so now this is our forward clutch here and we do have our forward ceiling rings right here too you know they never upgraded these on anything that i've seen too they're just a standard cast ring now another thing i've always learned too guys in building trainings for years uh always check your ceiling ring and your bore take and stick that down in there like this see how that fits really nice the lock gaps closed always do that because if you stick one in here i've done it guys especially c4 transmissions and stuff like that they come with like 10 different sizes you stick it on the drum fits nice but when you stick it on it falls to the bottom and you put it in the car next thing i don't handle forward so i really got to where i've started checking it that way that way you know you don't have to pull it back out because that's one thing me and trent i like to do is pull them back out so you know if we ever have to do anything it's usually adjustments inside the vehicle or basically in the valve body or if i go driving i don't like the way a gear works or something like that then i go in and change it so we never want to pull the unit out period now here's our forward clutch now we do have a wave to soften the engagement we don't ever take the wave out uh because it you go back to customer complaints a farmer puts in gear and it knocks his teeth out and his coffee spills on the dash and all that type stuff so we don't want that happening to the man but we can take this forward plate right here and we can take like this guys we can take this third gear clutch i'm gonna build it back real quick and show you now this is just a quick example okay we got our five clutches in there now we're gonna just saying we're gonna add another steel just like we did and i'm gonna grab me another third gear clutch just saying this ain't the third but i'm gonna use this as an example i'm gonna set it in there and i'm gonna take this forward hat i'm gonna set it in there just like that i'm gonna go over here in my stockpile and i'm gonna grab me a 350 snap ring and i'm gonna set it down in here just like this if you use any wider of a snap ring it won't get in the groove because there's a lip right here 350 snap ring is really thick this snapping is really thin so i wouldn't be using it because it's not thick enough to give me my right clearances but you can see here how this plate is almost up to the ledge right here now what i might do since i don't like that i'll go and grab me another third gear clutch and i'll get two of them and i'll shave the backing off one side off the other side i put them together now they're locked together put them back in there now my clearance is back up where i need it to be so there's multiple ways to get your clearances but you really want to get that extra clutch in there because just that one clutch makes a big difference guys when you're towing heavy weight so write that down that's a really simple upgrade you always want to check these two right here too and make sure this is tight because these things are bad about bow and when uh you get shift kits and stuff real uh it'll bow this plate when you put it in gear because that plate pumps up plows the clutch and then releases back it's what we call a bevel plate and it acts like a spring if i get that come on there we go and that's what that is it's bevel plate it bows up when this piston comes up it push it don't want to ever forget your little wire that sets in the piston and then that sets on there and then when fluid pushes behind that piston it lifts off on this hat applies the clutch so pretty pretty interesting like i said we can leave the four clutches in the forward we don't have to modify that so we're gonna get down in here look at this now this should be a steel planet being a diesel yeah you'll see aluminum and gas vehicles and stuff like that we'll look at both sides of these gears make sure there ain't no wobbling the pins ain't turning purple anything like that make sure you're splinting trying to strip here that goes to your output shaft now there's no wash or anything here this thing actually just runs metal to metal there's no you see it the gears physically keep it centered it keeps it from touching but still you want to scotch bright that up just to make sure that if it ever does touch or anything then we're going to get our sun gear shell now this train here does take some special tools to put back together i have once we stack all the drums i got this big old thing that grabs all this and sets it all down in one wack so now the shell has changed in different uh ways right through here uh when i was telling you they did away with that bearing in the forward drum uh down through here uh they changed it up here to keep it lifted up off there when they got rid of the washer i mean they did all kinds of crazy stuff same way here you want to look at both sides of these gears because you got a drive side and a coast side on both sides we had to replace all this stuff in the last one we did because once i got it cleaned up there was a lot of pitting i said he's already been carrying a ton of weight with this thing [Music] so we already know that everything's going to have a hard footprint on it and we got to look for that type stuff when i get it cleaned up they travel and do motorcycle racing is that what they do okay now you can see the thrush washer here has a pretty good load on it there's going to be another one down in here we'll take the the blunt of the load in first gear so in other words it gets the vehicle moving all the weight uh or the force on this planet is on this one washer right here and you can see the difference in the the two now once it gets in the second gear the load plant uh print put gets put on that washer so you can tell here and you stop that a lot and you take off how much load you're putting on that washer when you're towing a trailer okay and then it goes the same way same way here got six pinion planets you want to look at all your gears make sure they're not wobbling any pitting on the backside you'll see it more on the load side because you're moving all that weight you're going to see more wear on one side of the gear than the others i'm going to get down in here real quick and get this snap ring out of here got a snap ring now we're going to walk over here and pull the output shaft off bring it over here now the earlier designs had a thrust washer back here uh the 40100 and the later e40ds and stuff did they did start putting a bearing back here instead of a thrust washer then you have your parking pawl and then you have your speed sensor ring so i tell you guys these are amazing they blow me away still to the day on how these things work last push tons of weight down the road and then you know that the six speeds eight speeds and stuff like that the gears are even smaller uh they're more complex they're more tighter they're it just blows you away uh how they work and how they they last you know it's just amazing now you can see a piece of metal got run over right here and it's stuck down in that gear right there see it right there so we definitely want to look at the planet because you know that plant that's been running over that piece of metal in that gear think think so i don't see it oop there's another piece right here okay so we're definitely going to come in here look at all these gears because that's where that gear has been running where did that piece of metal come from guys so we i think a lot of it's coming out of the converter these have real bad issues with converter failure so and the way the pump uh the pieces are starting to look on the pump uh i'm thinking so now this guy i'm telling you he when he felt it he turned it off and he never started it again i mean i can tell just uh the way it looks and stuff so i'm gonna lift this case up i'm gonna take this race out of the back here let it drain for just a second i thought that was all that was in there there's still a little bit more in there now we do have this dress washer right here too that sits on this uh forward planet let me find it again it sets on excuse me it sits on this uh hub right here like that you get turned then you have your bearing and your forward planet that is what i'm saying that missed it for a second now here we have our lower roller clutch here it's starting to pull the plastic i mean the spray is pretty much starting to wear through here you don't really see much wear through here on the clutches uh when you your reverse clutch locks in or anything like that like you did the overdrive drum this one here i was telling you you don't see that a lot of load on overdrive you can see that right there when that indention on that clutch now they do have a way for reverse has plenty of clutches for a really strong reverse it's just they have a delay this train is really bad it's got so much to do uh to go into reverse you got your third gear clutch coming on your lower reverse clutch coming on and it's such a big circuitry uh that there's a lot to fill up to make it happen and the delay to me always occurs in the low reverse clutch area so let me get these bolts here off really quick you notice i've been babying i don't want to get it dirty until i get my new cover on there thank you theresa okay now we have our lower inner race for a sprag where the heck did it go here it is this was set in here like this like that this will turn one way and not the other you can notice here here's your lube hole to lubricate your sprag now in the early versions uh you notice this has a bearing right here the early versions had a washer right here and there was so much load on it they were always taking this washer out and what we were doing we would come in here and drill all the way through the back here and we would go as far as we could and the drill just wouldn't drill no more because this is such a hard race and then we'd come in here and we'd measure where we needed to be and we'd take a punch and we'd hit it with a punch and knock a hole in it right here and then clean it up run it all the way through and now we pressurized the back side of this washer and it made such a tremendous difference back in the day when we did all that type stuff but they did put a bearing here to eliminate the wear much more so uh that turned out really nice for ford that was a really good upgrade now there's a hole right here i just blew that reverse piston out you always want to check these really close guys anytime you put this piston in and you put your clutches in air check it instantly because this seal sometimes they cut this groove so deep in the piston this seal don't stick out far enough if you notice right now it barely has a seal same way here look at that there is no seal and that is a lip seal that's not a square cut seal that is physically a lipped seal but let me tell you you can't feel it so even with the new seals put it in there put your clutches in there air check it and make sure it moves really easy i've put them in before and have to go get another piston because the depth was cut too deep and could not get it to t to air check instantly with real light pressure and that's where you're going to find it out you hit it with a ton of air boom it's going to seal but if you sit there and just barely it will not pick the piston up so that's something you want to check too so excited going to be a fun build for me to do enjoy doing these too uh i'm glad theresa got me some more beautiful tools we're excited there too we got a lot more show to come guys uh just one after another got a lot of jobs in the parking lot we're going to be videoing stuff trying to upgrade uh everything so y'all don't forget to subscribe view push all those buttons you want to push we love doing it so theresa thank you again for taking over annie y'all have a great day y'all
