You just motivated me big time to undertake my 68RFE build myself. I've rebuilt numerous industrial drives both gear & fluid types so I'm no stranger to following diagrams and instructions and getting a good result. Automatic transmissions have always intimidated me but after watching this, I know I can get a good result if I buy good shit and take my time.

I really applaud your ability to just jump into a transmission and start ripping it apart. I've been through school and have my associates in auto tech and still get nervous when I rip a transmission apart lol

Koshunae I have none of your education so I’m even more terrified. Clips, washers and a whole bunch of stuff I don’t have a name for. IF and that’s a big if I got it apart I’d never get it back together. Hell, I’d never of gotten it out.

I'm bored. Guess I'll take a first time shot at rebuilding a 68RFE and it's many, many parts. Nothing to a titan! Amazing man.

Awesome rebuild! This guy works with a certain nonchalance, so as to conceal all the art and skill he has. He makes whatever he does or says appear to be without any effort and almost without hardly any thought about it. When you're that good, you're good.

Dude you're a freaking machine, I wish I had half the skill/ability to just rip into an trans and just go for it. Love your videos man so impressive getting to watch you work man.

How the hell does someone just decide to rebuild a heavy duty transmission? Damn thing had more parts than the space shuttle in there. I'm sitting here watching this thinking, aint no damn way he will know where all that stuff went. Pretty impressive.

Tomorrow I’m going to cure cancer and balance the Federal budget, should be anything too crazy. I watched a KZread video on it and it seems pretty straight forward.

God I love your videos. You know exactly what doing, weather you actually do or not. It’s great to see you enjoy learning the complex parts, and I feel like I often learn more from your technique. Keep it man.

Hope you get better from your accident, love watching your videos man! Keep doing you, love seeing the things you build and create!

I always enjoy watching your videos man, keep them coming!

As usual you did a great job 👍🏻 I put some 35” tires on my one...retuned the transmission software. had no issues so far.... can’t wait for your next upload !

Awesome. ! Congrats, great job rebuilding the Transmission. ! 👍🇺🇸

I love that you put a lot of DriveTime in after everything that you do.

I'm rebuilding a F-18 Super Hornet tomorrow. No big deal really. Lots of KZread videos and I have some specs, so I should be fine. I've never rebuilt a fighter jet before, but I should be ok. Just going to take my time. I'm a little worried by the fact that I am blind, have no legs, and only one good arm, but other than that, I'm good to go.

great job on the trans ,you made it look easy as usual .

Thank you for the great video! Your a pretty amazing guy, very inspiring to work on some of my own projects with a new perspective!

Just jumped right in there. Wasn’t afraid of the unknown. Nice work. Gets me motivated to tear shit apart more 👍🏼

Great job on digging in & getting that rebuild done! Can't believe it didn't require any specialty tools. Someone in design/engineering really screwed up if it's user-serviceable without high dollar equipment, right? I'm sure they'll rectify that in the future and make the next version more complicated.

Awesome job your gonna have a super nice truck when your finished

Fluid color looks perfect!

I worked in a shop that serviced vac trucks a few years ago, I remember one truck that was brought in. The transmission was not visible and you could just see the bottom of the pto. The rest was just full of mud, grass, sticks.

You do good work Optimal Welding

This is why I love my manual trans.

I made the same truck a long box, not to bad of a conversion. Has a 108" desiel werx work & play snowmobile bed.

That’s just like my truck it will be interesting to see what you do with it, thanks for the videos

you did a great job man !

Good job. Good luck with the tuning

This channel is badass man!

Heck yeah man, good job !

Dude, you're awesome! Great video

Its midnight...I'm watching.

Fuck..Was really omw to bed I swore to myself after watching your traction bar build that I was. Here we are.. ahh it's just 30 more minutes its only 3 a.m I don't have to be to work till 6! Lol tearing down a 600 cat in the morning! Accert twins ...

God bless your hand. Try a 500 cc holy shit. I really like the way dig into the Cummins trucks, especially how pull apart these automatic transmissions. Someday I'd like to have a 5 or 6 speed.

I was gonna rebuild the trans in my 2003 Cummins dually and I wanted to find a rebuildable used trans to rebuild. Most places want 800 bucks for a rebuildable core! For a 48re trans! Crazy!

Man i just found you today and i gotta say i been watchin your vids nonstop you inspire me bud. Also maybe its just me but i thought i heard some need for speed most wanted music playin back there in the shop. Edit: You have some good taste in music just sayin

24:57 good song my man i like your style

Looking forward to the interior vid bud

Great job!!!

Wish you would put out more content my favorite on the USE TUBE

Great vid

Definitely make one of replacing seat covers wanna do you that to mine

Hope theres a video on stripping the interior. Sounds interesting 👍

Great video

Nice dually

Awesome bud 🍻

Cool stuff

Good job man

Wow you have a huge garage...

Badass background music

Funny you mention that you thought the channel plate on the valvebody looked like a bad design with no support in the center lol, they often warp and leak under high pressure. Billet upgrades are popular in that area.

Good job

Now that you are tuning these 4th gens will these tunes be compatible with 2013+ DEF equipped trucks? Nice videos bro cant wait to see how this truck turns out.

I think BD diesel sells a box that makes it so itll shift when you want it too.

Unbelievable buddy!! Great vid! Any experience tearing into NV5600's?? Also, stick with the stock Alcoa's and get them powder coated black. Thats what I did! Running 35" Toyo CT's

Another great video....is my tuning knob for my '12 on the way?

Man ur talented 👌

Great job as always, how long did it take you to do it all

I just bought a 2019 cummins 3500 with the 68RFE and at 900km I started having an issue with my torque converter not disengaging when slowing to a stop. the whole truck shudders at 30km/h and won't downshift unless I hit the breaks and basically stop, it sounds like the transmission is going to drop out. I'm at 2800km now on the truck and its not getting any better and now on my 3rd week waiting for the dealer to get the new converter in.after watching this video I sure hope there won't be any damage to the clutches in the transmission or anything else by the time the dealer gets their shit together.

A.D.I.D.A.S 🤘🏻

interesting filming style. Impressive none the less, just jump in and get it done. Its the only way I know how to do things. KZread, pinterest and other various websites have got me through a lot of projects. ha

he ain't skeered o nothin!

good one

You may have mentioned it before in a previous video, and I didn’t catch it. But what size is your shop?

Ho hum, I think I'll rip apart a 68rfe trans today...yawn. Good work, wish I could knock something like that out

Your music playlist is like my ex.. Bipolar! Lol.. j/k.. Great video!

One reason that trans could have overheated so badly is the truck has a bypass valve in the cooler circuit that likes to stick. Something to watch out for!!!!!

What ever u do do not reuse the pump or the valve body there the 2 big problem areas on the 68. You should do trans tuning get it to lockup in 2nd gear. Good job rebuilding the trans.

What did you use to clean up the trans parts

Single disc. That is what failed in my 2006 quad cab dually. I put it a B+W triple disc.

Optional welding, where did you get your rebuild kit?

Do you think 2 guys who’ve got basic wrenching knowledge could drop the trans, rebuild it and put it back in within a weekend? (Friday- Sunday)

What rebuild kit did you use ?

=You are amazing man. Everyday I wait from another video from you because it is amazing to see what you can accomplish. You are truly gifted. I would love to learn as much as you have some day.

Do you have a clip of your 12 valve tune on the 6.7??

where did you end up buying your rebuild kit?

It is not deleted until that shit is GONE... best thing I ever did was delete my ‘12... get all the bald eagles!

Where did you buy your rebuild kit from?

Is that speedometer off?

How much did u pay for that with a bad trans

My understanding of DPF differential pressure sensors is that the higher the pressure differential the higher the soot content. If I remove the DPF and put a straight pipe and leave the sensors in the computer will think "wow that is one free flowing and clean filter". Am I wrong?
