Thank you for this video. I took my stator home and put it in the oven at 180 deg F and it went back together beautifully. I need to get an easy bake oven for the shop I guess. Now my 6L80 builds will be that much better.

@155F I was able to reinstall the stator by hand as I suspected. No problem.

Awesome. I have been GM trained on this transmission and I thank you for showing me the things that they aren't willing to tell us. Too often these pumps are thrown in the garage. A good machinist could make them like new again. You rock. Keep up the good work.

god bless u... i admire your skill as an artisan true artist... and a machinist... i wish the Gi bill would allow me to apprentice someone of your understanding...

Thanks Richard

I too worked at dealers for many years...they tell you to not do a lot of things that are totally doable with skill and common sense (the two things that are unfortunately not very common anymore)....they brainwash employees with their trouble trees and other diagnostic methods. So glad I left the dealers and actually got to open my eyes and brain.

😃😃😃😃😃😃😃AMEN. LRE thanks Mike

Its not that complicated ,i just warm it up with heat gun then bump the splined end on hardwood it falls right out,then i use old 6l80 bell hsg to support it warm it again press gently no problem seals perfectly whats the issue?

I'm a retired mechanic and can only agree with what you are saying. Some factory tech bulletins were based on information sent in from techs who were working on the bench using their experience and skill to fix the engineer's screw ups.

Thanks! I just jerked the trans out for the 2nd time on a Tahoe. Slipping going into 5th after rebuild. Stator bolts, 2 were basically hand loose and a piece of the gasket was blown out (on 4-5-6 circuit) causing my issue. I should have swapped the gasket and checked for flat the first time, Oh well. Lesson learned.

But GM says not to remove that stator! Lol.... Glad you found it.

I agree with you 100 percent ,,,,, HAY why do the overhaul kit have the gasket and "o" ring any way. ......and even my manual says DONT REMOVE .... THATS BULL SHIT. JUST LIKE YOU SEAD WORK ETHIC IN THIS COUNTRY IS IN TROUBLE 😪,,,,, KEEP ON TRUCKIN MAN FROM LOUIS EDWARDS. EDWARDS BROTHERS TRANSMISSIONS RR NC 🐘

Nice

I’m guessing all the valves should come out no problem? My tcc Control valve is and was stuck and I can’t get it out can’t even find the replacement valve any suggestions. Thank you for all the help

Did you have to press it out to get it apart ? And being a interference fit would you use any type of sealant to ensure against any leakage ?

Not really. I just take the bolts out and go around the perimeter with a small dead blow hammer. No, but there is an o-ring and gasket which are included in the overhaul kits....

You really do have to seperate the stator ...the gaskers have a habit of going bad( between stator and support ) and the way we get the pumps machined here in Houston is with a 3 axis cnc machine...

I never separated this stater in my life

Back yard joe here, just put in oven lets say 200F slip right back on? Just asking. Have a big hose clamp for centering? Oh boy, do not kill me......lol

The only service I can offer at this time is resurfacing the pump halves. This is a service provided to transmission shops only. Thanks

Gm doesn't let use do that because they only pay us 5.8hrs for a complete 6l80 repair on a 4wd truck.

Don't listen to people , keep posting videos

I take mine apart, and inspect, replace gasket and oring. After press it back together carefully. Works great all the time. GM only wants to make money off their customers...

Didn't even see you
