Toyota W56 Manual Transmission Rebuild: Complete Reassembly - 4Runner & Pickup 22RE

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Complete W56 transmission rebuild and repair in my residential garage! Installing a brand new bearing, seal, and gasket kit to completely refresh and repair this transmission from my 1987 Toyota 4Runner. Ever wondered how a manual transmission works/operates? Take one apart!
Previously it blew an input shaft bearing so I went through the entire transmission, tore it apart, cleaned up all the metal shavings, removed everything, and now I'm putting it back together and guess what...IT WORKS!
The W56 was found in the Toyota 4Runner and Pickup from 1985 - 1995, both 2WD and 4WD models. Should also apply to other Toyota Transmissions including W55, W56-A, W56-B, W56-C, W56-D, W56-E, W57, W58, and W59. This transmission is found in the Toyota Pickup and 4Runner, but should also apply to later Tacoma and T100 models using the W59 and Celica, Cressida which also use a similar transmission.
Previously I tore the entire transmission down and completely disassembled it. You can check out the last videos below!

    I did the same with my 1990. As I took the parts out I put them in order on a coat hanger. Then a bought a rebuild kit and took it to a Local transmission shop. He thanked me for keeping everything in order and because of that, he put it all back together for $200. That worked out great.

    Halfway through a rebuild of completely different box, first time, learning curve is steep. Your bit on the synchros really helped me out. PF6 six speed (vauxhall vivaro 2.0 CDTi). Selector rod shaft was messed up, all bearings needed replacing and 5/6th synchro had jammed up while trying to spit its internal springs out.. could have been worse...

    You got lucky. At 16:24 you slid off the bearing in front of the 4th counter gear. It's supposed to be a press fit. If I could get mine to slide off along with the 4th counter gear, then I could easily replace the input shaft w/o disassembling the transmission.

    I want to say that at the 17 min mark you discussed not using the side race of the new bearing. its not a spacer. its a redesigned bearing that fits the exact same as the old one when installed. i think using a new style bearing with the old style side race might cause issues sooner or later.

    You likely dodged a bullet by finding the 3rd synchro slop before assembly. I had my 1987 W56 rebuilt back in '09 and the new 3rd synchro would last after about a month before the transmission wouldn't stay in 3rd gear. The shop tore the transmission apart again to replace that synchro and again same problem. On the third case cracking, they sourced a 3rd synchro from a different supplier (different country) and it has been running fine ever since.
