Richard loves his air remember when his boy was trying to convert him to cordless😅

Richard explains things very clearly, and points out important details. Teresa does a great job focusing on those details. I'm not allowed to cut grass before Easter so that we can hide the eggs better.

Sonnax upgrade sounds like best option.

Always put the good stuff in. If it’s better that’s why you go threw it to make it better .

Oh definitely that’s why I’m here

I bet the collar locking design is what wore the splines. Sonnax upgrade parts for sure.

Love y'all.....tried to call....shop changes have me at a dead end. No worries tho....got our hard parts for our 700R4. 52 Commander....dude stabbed the torque converter wrong. Took an hour to get it out. Fresh rebuild so the pump & converter is all that it's getting. Thanks for all of the education!!!

Sonnax is the way to go, like you said it's a better metal and it'll be hardened unlike the factory stuff. Happy Easter. You're right about retirement, I'm busier now than I was when I was working. I don't work on school buses anymore but my own stuff and different projects never seem to stop lol. Next in line is my 71 Demon getting the transmission pulled and sent out for a rebuild and get it ready for a drag n drive in October. One of our stops will be Amarillo Dragway.

Damn Dodge!!! Thanks Richard!!! Got my 700R4 pump and converter in from a hard parts supplier in Chicago. After Dad played with the pump a half hour he realized it wasn't lined up!!!! Had to loosten up the bolts to line the pump properly. Shouldn't the pump rebuilder have the damn thing lined up when they shipped it to me???!!! Can't get good work out of anyone anymore. Thanks for doing good work Richard.

SONNAX for sure! 🙂

I’d second the motion to Sonnax upgraded spline. Hardened better quality larger shaft over unhardened shaft that just failed. Obviously a no brainer! Lol

Sonnax parts it’s got to be. Great video. Happy Easter.

Happy Easter Richard/Teresa. from down under Brisbane Australia.

I noticed your old transmission jack you had it I used to work with one that was made by gray automotive and that was one hell of a transmission jack the first stage was air and then you pumped it by hand, the rest of the way and what was need about that jack the lady told me I called her about some potential parts Find out we didn’t need them anyway that jacks were designed in the 40s and they could still get parts that was clear back into the 80s all right I like your shop unfortunately I wish you would do carryout but you don’t cause I have a 47 Rh for my Dodge and I really want you to do it but Anyway I promise you I know how to reinstall for example, your Christ or torque flight the torque converter was approximately 7/16 of an inch back from the flange of the bell housing. That was my old 727 all right catch you later this is six in a row.Jim from Kennerdell Pennsylvania

Easter greetings from sunny and fairly warm (~70 degrees) Eastern Washington 😎👍

HAPPY EASTER TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

Theresa's "I think you're gonna do what the customer says"---LOL.

Sonnax upgraded. From watching your channel Sonnax is the go to aftermarket replacement parts people.

It is interesting that some transfer case seal kits will not come with the oil pump O ring. That is really something. I think I would specify using the brand kits that do include them vs. those who do not. Maybe those manufacturers need some feedback from the wholesalers to include them for obvious reasons.

No Brainer, 4041 or 300m bigger shafts and more splines. Always

Sonnax. No question.

Use the good stuff. Every time.

Thanks for the video, always appreciated!

Only 25 or 26 bolts! 🤣 Happy Easter!

Got my transmission all serviced up, and my fuel injectors decided it was time to leave the chat. #3 is done!

I’m a believer in Sonnax. Happy Easter!!!

Happy Easter Teresa and Richard 👍

Sonnax all day

Happy Easter. SONNAX. I enjoy your videos. I would like to see some assemble videos. This t-case, 4l80E, and NV4500.

Sonnax every time

Happy Easter

HAPPY EASTER

Do it right the first time is my opinion. It is added cost, but still less expensive than another rebuild

IMO, gotta go with the Sonnax on that special shaft. More splines & better metallurgy = stronger/longer life....IMO. And Happy Easter.

happy easter!

Same T-case that's in 99-04 Ford Superdutys

After seeing how worn out the splines were, I would want the Sonnax parts too.

That was pretty cool Richard, thanks for sharing that. BTW, have you ever done a rebuild on a Ford Top Loader? I'd like to see that !

Yes sir been a while, but it always comes back to memory

Sonnax for the win.

Upgrade to the bigger shaft more splines

😂😂😂😂 all good take care again.....

How did the splines get wore out, when it has that double lock that keeps any slack away from the spline's.?? it looks like even if the splines weren't there the shaft would still turn just using llocking dog's.

100% agree, my thoughts are this modification was done after the splines wore out, and if that is true, the locking dogs are doing just fine. if that was my transfer case i would say if its not broken don't fix it.

I've watched that show for years, and Richard is a really shrewd sailesmen. he talks people into buying way more expensive parts then they need on the pretext that the blueing is faded. or it Just might brake. I don't know, i'm starting to see a little underhanded sailsmen ship going on. He keeps saying he cant make build videos because it would take to long, is that really the reason?? he made one a few years ago, why have thing changed.?? @@frankmouskovias8921

I would buy Sonnax. But I am biased . I work there

Hi Richard, It's been a while since I have been able to watch your videos. Have you started your own Transmission shop? Thanks

When you upgrade a weak point, you usually end up finding the next weakest link in the chain...!!! Unfortunately!

Richard and Teresa, where do you get your stick shift transmission parts from? I want to rebuild my Ford M50D-R2 5 speed this summer.

@@imtheonevanhalen1557 I don't have a problem doing that but I would prefer to get parts from a reputable place like someone that Richard and Teresa use, they are transmission specialists and have a large group of dependable suppliers to choose from

I want you to refresh my 2012 G56???

Have you ever done a teardown video on a 545RFE?

Bigger is always better.

They easily could have put 9-13 more bolts in the case.

Richard, do you ever get into the RFE units found in the dodge gas trucks? I have an 08 2500 5.7l 545RFE and would love to see a tear down on one at some point.

Hey Richard this is Cam up here in Michigan im sure your busy right now making things look easier then they are. I dont have much experience rebuilding transmission ive down maybe 8-10 with a mentor. But im struggling getting any endplay at the input shaft ive got something messed up i just cant seem to figure it out its a 4l60e 2013 style. Ive got about .030 in the output shaft everything spins freely triple checked bearing placement clutch clearance is there any thing you could recommend i look back maybe a problem with the input drum assembly? Any recommendations would be appreciated thank you sir have a great weekend.

How do we go ahead and reach out to you to have a trans built by you?

Change the dual to a Sonex

Happy EASTER to you all !!!
