You actually installed the forward assembly, reverse drum, and band and then removed it all just to show us how to put it in again from a different angle, respect

My son and I watched this video together to rebuild his 4L60. Your videos are the best I've ever seen, very informative and fast paced which I like for videos. Thank you very much for your time you put into these videos.

I rebuilt a 700r4 with this video and no prior experience with transmissions thank you so much

Hiram its so nice to see you back at the bench, been subscribed for years, I hope you and your family are well and healthy

Man I love your videos. I'm an engine builder and I really appreciate you putting these videos out. I've done a few transmissions power glides and th350's but I dont know much about them. I recently have found myself needing to do a couple of 700's and a 4l60 for my own stuff. man you are a life saver! You have the most complete no BS videos on transmissions on KZread! Thanks Brother! Also...I feel your pain on voice overs lol

Damn...I fell asleep and woke up and you were still at it. This, by far, is the most in depth video I have seen or dreamed(since I slept thru some).MY MAN...

This is the most detailed and informative video I've ever watch. Great work!

That was a video worth (re)watching. The detail you went into was fantastic. Thanks for the effort with the camera and the background noise. Cheers.

I just want to say this is one of the most informative videos I've watched. I'm a veteran mechanic Diesel and gasoline. My first time doing an automatic transmission. This video made it simple for me. Thanks..

Thank you for your time and effort you put in to educate us. This build seems very intimidating with all those pieces but with you as guide it isnt so scary.

These videos are fun.Hiram is sharing his tricks with us.I have built Honda,Ford and GM transmissions with Hirams videos.I built at least 10 transmissions that all worked great, Thanks Hiram.

thanks for taking time to get into the weeds on this. Bought a used 700R4 for my 73 C10 but I want to beef it up a little. Now I feel I should be able to tackle it.

Hiram I got yo tell you that your videos were prefect. I'm sitting at my bench and have just finished my 700r4 after watching your parts 1 & 2. I did this trans years ago and followed a guy on a DVD and he took only 2hrs to complete the reassembling process. Your info was great, I found so many mistakes from the first time I did it also. Thanks so much for doing this it was a pleasure getting this task completed and with your help I'll be on the road this spring.

Hiram, thank you for sharing you knowledge. I have learned so much from your videos.

Hiram this is a masterpiece! Watched it several times and always learn something new.

this video was just what i needed ...i removed the servo and the band moved into the way of the servo pin so that i cant push the new servo back into the case ....2 things i learned 1 being how the band sits in the case and2 how to be able to get to the band without removing the trans from the car to get this issue sorted out ...great video very good instructions all through it all . thank you for going through it for everyone to understand....see how he explains how the band would move and not allow the servo to go into the case that is exactly what happened to me and this video was a very big help to get my issue sorted out thank you so much

Awesome awesome video sir. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I'm a younger mechanic trying to expand my knowledge.

I also had issues with the governor being at first a broken gear that I replaced ... cleaned up the governor with carb cleaner and after installing it it shifted once or twice and was once again stuck in its boar .... I have since ordered a 10mm boar brush that I plan on cleaning up the inner sleeve of the governor in hopes that that will help keep it from hanging up in the future... I also plan in doing a full trans flush to clean out all the old fluid from the transmission and converter...hopefully this will be enough to get this trans shifting gears again like it was just recently, I had no issues untill just recently when the governor gear went any input I’m real thankful for. Great video , great information thank you !.

Thank you for this video I rebuilt my 700r4 last year doing fine for now.. my first was a 400 turbo it didn't do good at all the pan exploded..

Awesome video. You help out so many people keep up the amazing videos.

Watched pt. 1 & 2✔️Great instructions!

I will watch this video 10 more times and should be ready to build my transmission.

Great video. Im doing my own 700r4 and using this video and some books. Its a really good video. I said f it and trimed the load spring retainers some.

Great job!! Hiram very cool video 👍👍

Thank you for your time and efforts. Well Done 💯

I really appreciate your videos I enjoy working on cars .I'm building a 92 chevy stepside with 700r4 and I want to rebuild the transmission myself I can do everything else I want to do the transmission to

Really needed this for my 1991 Camaro, glad I found your channel. I was a bit hesitant to even attempt rebuilding my transmission, but after watching this and part 1 I feel much more confident. Thanks a lot, you really know your stuff.

Great video thank you very much ,I will Veatch it several more times, I learned so much

I have over 40 years experience in auto repair and the only things I haven't tackled are rear end rebuilds and automatic transmissions. I have a vehicle with a 700R4 that will soon be needing a rebuild so I thought this might be a good thing to watch and learn from, and maybe attempt it myself. What I took away from this video is that to do the right job you can't do it without the knowledge and depth of parts that a pro like you have. You are truly an ace at what you do. If I weren't in New York you would be seeing me soon at your shop. Thanks for taking the time to make your videos. They are great.

Hiram, again with this second part of the 700R4 rebuild , my son and I are eager to watch again and again , then get started on out rebuild. You should be an instructor, you explain things very clearly.

thank you sir. I finally finished my transmission. i gotta admit this was my first time ever doing this. it took me several weeks due to my lack of experience. i damaged two lip seals and had to order more and the i freakin damaged the pressure regulator valve in the front pump but it was totally my fault. i got frustrated and pryed in a bad location. i got a new one from amazon no problem. your video was very thorough and my mistakes were totally my fault. thank you very much for this video

My transmission just started making wierd noises sounds like its coming from the torque converter. Really have no over drive and all the gears shifts way late i have to floor it for it to shift. I have a spare trans that took a dump 13 months after i paid $2700 to have it rebuilt. Ima take it apart tomorrow and see whats wrong with it.. Thank you for this 1 and 2 part video.

I know I'm late to the party, but others like me that just found your channel might get this info. In the ATSG Upgrade book, on page 95 they back up and give an explanation on the boost springs . It basically echos what you said, "if you have tight clearances, use the booster springs, they do more good than harm." Just a little info to give to the newbies that didn't have the book or upgrade book. Thanks for your teaching expertise.

Thank you for your hard work very informative

Thanks so much bro for your videos they're very helpful...

morning Hiram i stopped building when these started and now a lot older and doing some 4l60e s so this was my first full view of 700 THANKS you are great TEACHER JIMMY n ALA

u may want to grind that mushroom off your bushing driver,., it can fracture and a small piece fall in the trans, and u might not see it. thanks great vid sir!

I fixed my slipping Automatic transmission in about 45 minutes , didn't even have to take the oil pan off or remove any bolts , I just added a pilot bushing , Steel SFI certified Fly Wheel , 11 inch clutch and M-21 Muncie 4 speed , That old automatic don't slip no more

Them LOAD RELEASE SPRINGS are driving you nuts... I also think like you,, I'm thinking of dremeling a bit off the* spring plate*

I don’t mind the fan. I say stay cool. You are doing us a favor teaching us. You have every right to stay cool.

Thank you Hiram ! I've learned a lot from watching your videos. It's not often you find someone who will take the time to explain and show in detail what they are doing ! Thanks again ! ! !

I'm about to attempt my first 700r4 rebuild thanks to this video!! Great Great help!. Can I use a bearing and seal driver in place of the bushing driver?

Wow! What a precision job!

Thank you for being so descriptive

This has been an awesome video for me (along with part one) as I work through the disassembly and rebuild process of my 700r4. If you still monitor the questions on this Hiram, I have one. The green seal which is designed to separate the 3rd and 4th fluid, in my kit it was blue, and it seems a little loose to me. I goo’d it up with the green goo, but it only takes a slight knock and it comes out of its groove easy. I have since assembled the drum, I kinda hope it wasn’t knocked and is still seated. Do I need to disassemble and put a tighter seal on?

For the bushing install, isnt lt possible to freeze the bushing and heat the part it goes into and just drop in place? My father used to put a ring gear in the over and a flex plate in the freezer and mated the two pieces very easily.

You can use the low reverse roller clutch and the carriers it goes in out of a 4l60e and it way better than the 700r4 one they make couple different thickness of them plates to get the clearance where you want on the low reverse

These videos are amazing! I have two 91’ 700r4’s I need to have rebuilt. Both will be run with a sbc 350 and 4.11 posi rear end. What’s a good rebuild kit and torque converter I should order and what brands should I stay away from? Thank you 😎👍

Great video i followed all your steps , but im having a problem i installed the tran go kit (full manual) new gaskets , seals and all. i have no first gear , shifting from 2nd to 1st will stop the car. 1st gear feels like i have the brakes on the car doesn't move. any hint what i should check ? thanks

You're a surgeon 🙌

I watched this video step by step as I rebuilt the 700r4 on my 1990 Corvette. It shifts beautiful now, my only issue is when I put it into drive it slams into gear. Did I do something wrong somewhere? Any help would be appreciated.

Thank for reply ill keep watching but old and slow cya jimmy

So what was the issue with the pump? I have a 700r4 my pump won’t seat flush it will go down until there about a quarter inch gap then won’t move.

It is what it is man!

I like you Hiram. Good Job.

Did I misunderstand a post you made on these check balls, where you said that you only use 2 check balls and have great results?....I don't do enough of these to be confident and, once they are together, i keep second-guessing myself...your vids have helped me immensely, especially that one you did years ago on the 4L80E...

Now which hole did you put the air to to check for low/reverse leak?

Are those Sonnax Z packs a good idea to use in every rebuild ?

good vid !

Great videos, lot's of explanation. I'm doing a 700 for a friend, wondering if you could post a list of all the upgraded parts? The trans I'm doing is a 1985 model,friend is going to install it in a 1970 C10 truck with medium build 350.

When I apply air to forward clutch it come out the overrun port. What did I do wrong?

I rebuilt my 89 700r4 and there is no reverse what should I be looking/check?

where is the check ball for the aux valve body ,never saw you putting there?

I noticed the bottom bolt hole for the case that holds the pump the case is busted ! Is that a problem!?!

Hey Hyram, the 700R4 I'm working on has 2 snap ring grooves at the low/reverse sprague support. Yours has 1? 1st ring sposed to hold clutch plates down. Or can I add extra plate and clutch and use 1 snap ring ?

I have a very early 700r4 I assume much the same as this one,what’s it cost ball park,to do this rebuild,more than my TH 350 I’m assuming?I tried pulling a junk 350 apart once and I won’t do that again and I can do the rest of a vehicle.

I had same transmission rebuild. Work fine for 3 days,then I lost 3rd & 4th.what could it be?

Hey need a little help I'm rebuilding a 86 700r4 30 spline non auxiliary and my pump is trashed I have a 88 auxiliary pump wondering if the pump will work if I block off the oil pipe hole in the pump

Why do they say to grind the land off on the pump pressure valve?

Is it Normal for the output shaft to turn real hard in one direction?

that load release springs cage height issue is an interesting one! did anyone ever reach out to say they're making them shorter?

What specific tools do you need for this rebuild

That filter seal should've snapped into place to where the filter removes without it, that's how you know it's properly seated but hey your the professional

what about the Ford XLT E150 automatic transmission. how to assemble all parts

For everybody watching this is actually a 4L60 transmission basically the same as the 700R4 except they installed a drive accumulator with a tube coming from the oil pump to the accumulator to soften the engagement into drive. When you take the oil pan off you can see the tube and the accumulator on the valve body That's how you can tell the difference

Why no gasket between the input pump??

I have to rebuild a 1983 700R4 which is for a K5 Blazer. Do you recommend a particular brand for the overhaul kit? Thank you for the video.

Is there a parts list you used for this build?

Hi Hiram . I got R700 early built without auxiliary valve body . Some one installed on jaguar 89 XJS and i need some information because transmission has couple valves blocked on valve body .

Are used transmission cooker/cleaner expensive? And where can i buy one for cleaning parts? Or is there an alternative to use? Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge an expertise in all your videos.How to become a Patron? Thank you Jack.

Taking apart a 700r4 and it has aluminum pieces in the pan what might that be?

What would cause a fresh rebuilt 700r4 not to shift into fourth gear

Please help!!?? Does a 1983 700r4 have a low reverse wavy plate? Or is it just 5 steels?

What would cause a 700r4 to loose reverse

How would I have to build a 700r4 to run behind a 396?

Followed your video as best I could. Tranny will not upshift. Tv cable adjusted. Governor checked. Any suggestions?
