Nick, another excellent video. As a builder myself, I watch a lot of these videos. From various people. I like to see what they do, compared to what I do. I have found things that are a much, better way to do certain tasks. I Have also seen some that I just have to shake my head at. You do a very, very good job of, explaining yourself as to why. I enjoy watching your stuff. I think one thing that those, not in the business (and some that are) need to understand is this. Always have reference material handy. And always build at a comfortable speed. Double checking on the bench. Can save you hours of time. When you have to go back in because, you either had a brain fart and guessed. Or you got in a hurry and messed up. No matter how many you have built. Or how good a reputation you have. Humbleness is only one job away. Good job sir!

Thank you, Larry - agree on all points! Especially the point about keeping a manual or other reference material on hand during the rebuild. It's all too often folks don't have the ATSG or equivalent manual on the bench, run into a problem and don't know how to fix or worse, don't know what they don't know and make mistakes without ever being the wiser. When I decide to take on a new type of transmission, first thing I do is buy or download the ATSG manual for that unit and literally go through it cover to cover...First thing I look at is the special tooling and see what tools I need so they're on hand before I begin. Thank again for watching!

I like watching your videos. Very thorough and clear. I recently rebuilt a TH350 and the output shaft is a bit difficult to spin by hand. Is that normal? I can spin it with the slip yoke installed but it has quite a bit resistance and I'm worried I might have to tear it apart again. Thanks for the vids man! Keep 'em coming

Thanks, Fabiancustoms - appreciate the kind words. Output shafts are generally much easier to spin in the direction of engine rotation (clockwise for the most part) and harder to spin counterclockwise...If any output shaft is difficult to spin clockwise, something is likely bound up or installed incorrectly.

Hola amigo cuál es la diferencia entre la 6r60 y la 6r80.. Saludos

Hi Carlos, thank you for watching. The 6R60 was only in production from 2005 until 2009 where it was replaced by the 6R80 in most of its applications (Pick-ups, vans, etc). The 6R60 was a lighter duty transmission with one less friction and steel in the clutch packs as well as other component differences.
