I noticed that you still have that Holden badge on your toolbox I sent you a few years ago, I just want to say, thank you Eric, for not throwing it out :) A simple thing like that has made my day :)

+EricTheCarGuy Just be aware that your tool box will probably rust faster with the Holden badge on it.

It doesn't matter what make of vehicle you like or hate, after watching the entire video, Paul is obviously very skilled at what he does and has a wealth of knowledge that I respect. Great job on the tear down and explanation of what things are and why they broke.

I do know the company that makes their gears and have installed a few sets. Pretty much also like the G-Force sets. These gearsets still break and in my opinion not worth the effort or money. Just upgrade to a TKO or T56.

+Doomster9 Yeah, that man really knows his stuff. The amount of knowledge at Eric's workshop with those two guys, is pretty darn impressive.

Among the best videos I’ve ever seen. A true expert, speaking like an expert with no ands, ums, or giggling. AND NO DAMN MUSIC.

Paul is very professional.

God I love listening to people who are expert at these sorts of things. Paul is like Obi-Wan Kenobi.

I doubt I will EVER rebuild a transmission but after just a few minutes watching Paul's channel and I'm hooked. You can learn things that apply to tons of other types of machinery so win win!!

It's almost artistry when you watch someone work like this know really knows what they are doing. Never messed with any transmission work because all of the pieces intimidate me with fears of missing a shim or some other item. Love the educational value you have shared with us Eric. Thank you for the video.

This is an excellent video Eric, I don't think I've ever seen such a detailed rebuild video of anything.

Paul is the best Ive seen, I learn something new every time i watch this rebuild. Thanks Paul and Eric ! Whats impressive is how Paul never has to look at any diagrams, and always gets it right.

Nothing like watching etcg on my 70in big screen. An hr long video is a perfect way to wake up today.

You guys really did an awesome first part one this one. Really in detail with all the right shots and sooo much stuff that you'd either miss or have no way to learning otherwise.

👍🏽 Fantastic channel-as a mechanical engineer who has worked in the auto sector and once contemplating a sales job for specialized gear design software .This is hugely educational. Thank you Paul & Eric.

Starting the new year off right with a 1 hour EricTheCarGuy video. :D

Loved this video. Yes, admitted it's above my head, but I sat here captivated the entire time & learning throughout the process. Thanks so much for these videos.

Buying the book! And I think I'll pick up Paul Cangiolosi's book on the Muncie 4-speed too, while I'm at it. His mastery of the subject is mind blowing. He never seems to hesitate... Amazing.

I have been watching your videos since I started watching KZread, and you’ve yet to not be a big help to me. Thanks, Eric!

Happy New Year! Thank you Eric, Paul, Brian and all those involved in the efforts and production of this channel. May the new year bring you, your families and friends much health, wealth, happiness and peace.

This guy is a master. Eric is also very humble and it shows. I like watching these two great techs work together.

What an awesome video, Paul certainly knows his stuff. Very cool to see a master at work and how effortlessly he can do this job. The Fairmont project is coming together!

Paul is a 5 speed whisperer. He talks to 5 speeds and they listen. 4 and 3 speeds follow him like a puppy. If I ever need a transmission rebuilt it is going to Paul no questions and I will happily pay whatever he charges.

Thanks for the videos Eric. Your enthusiasm and commitment to proper car repair has inspired me. I may not be a mechanic yet, but I do work on cars electrical systems professionally every day and I follow your advice and work ethic every day to do my job.

I want to congratulate you on this video. You have many grate videos, but this one is one of the best I have seen on transmissions. Keep up the good work!

I'm so glad I took the risk on this video! I thought it'd be a little over my head, but his explanations were super easy to follow and I really appreciated the occasional questions that helped clear up a few questions for me . Thanks a *LOT* guys!!!

Thanks so much for this video Eric im currently rebuilding the t5 in my foxbody and have Pauls book was very shocked to see him and it on your show! Can't wait for part 2

I barely even wrench on my own stuff anymore and I can't get enough of these videos. While watching I can't help but think of the engineering, testing and redesigning of parts and the whole transmission and how it is but just one 'part' of the whole car. Amazing!

thank you for making this series of vids on the T5. Ive watched them over and over again.

Glad to see Paul on this job!. I recently ordered a Hurst Comp Plus shifter from Paul with his personal modifications. He did an awsome job and the shifter works perfect. Most important he was honest with me and did what he said he was going to do. That is worth everthing in today's world.

Absolutely a great video, even if you've done these before it's always possible to learn something new and Paul does a great job showing us his experienced way to do it.. Please keep this kind of info coming.

The best ETCG video yet, can't wait for the assembly.

Paul knows these things very well. Good to see somebody care that much about what they are doing. I love when you can find people working with their passion.

Man this is great having Paul on your channel and the fact that I have to rebuild a t5 makes it all the better!

I've been in a few T-5's before... but I'm still learning stuff from this guy. Keep it up!

Thanks for making this video. I've been putting off rebuilding my T5 for years. Just baby the 1-2 shift.

GREAT video Eric. I'll never do this work, but to see it being done gives a whole new perspective on why the costs to do the work are so high! Thanks again!!!

This is such a quality video with such great detail, very educational. It deserves a million views!!!

Love Paul's video's.......the guy's good......very thorough. Glad to see the KZread guys getting together and doing joint videos

That guy is a true master of his craft. Love the way he "reads" the parts. Great video.

Great vid! Waiting for #2. You guys together is a new one, great! Not only very informative and full of tips, but entertaining as well! Being into classic Volvos T-5 is not my forté, but much is "universal". Thanx for putting time and effort into this!

Great video which was long time demanding. It feels so excellent when doing the gearbox overhauling job with the subject specialist! Also it would be a very nice idea to do overhauling on front wheel drive T5 and assembly and adjustment of differential. Will be waiting for next parts.

What a nice, competent guy. Looking forward to part 2 guys.

Eric,You have given me so much confidence over the years to work on my own cars with ease.I have solved so many issues with my vehicles and got them back on the road with little expense by not taking it to the garage as money has been tight most of the time`and this is when the car decides to pack up`the car is so needed in my life and it effects me greatly when it goes wrong,but thanks to you I`ve managed to get the vehicles back on the road following your advice.The thing about your vids you give so many routs to check be for jumping the gun and most of the time I solve the problem.I had never thought to thank you be for` Ive always took your advice for granted so. Thank you for keeping me out of debt and learning me about vehicle fixes a big thumbs up to you and all.

+wow dude Thanks very much for your comment. It's always great to hear how my work helps people.

Still watching but paused at 20 min and some change so awesome to see you guys so confident in what you do and be good at it Paul fixes and takes apart the transmission like it's nothing and Eric can fix a car like nothing.Compared to me with little experience I'd be lost but not too lost since watching these videos a few years back.Somewhere here in Western,Massachusetts I have relatives that own a Transmission rebuilding shop (or So I was told) I'd like to get into that a little bit,as confusing and difficult as it looks I like it.

Always great to see a Master at work! (CarGuy himself not to shabby either). Thanks guys!

Great video. Thank you. 7 months ago I, for the first time, became a Fox Body Mustang GUY. It's my project/toy car. It has the T-5. I am not having any problems with it. But I have always been a ,visual inside my head, person that when I am, say, shifting the gear. I see inside my head everything mechanical going on inside the trans. So i like to really see what's inside of anything mechanical to help me with that visual. I know it sounds crazy. It is how I have always been. I am just always engineering things inside my head. Hey, it works for me. LOL. Also, I am sure one day I will rebuild my T-5. I bought this car to flog the heck out of it at the autocross and canyons up north. This was a real treat. I have been paying attention to the Fairmont build. Very cool project. I have always like those cars. Even back in the day when there was NOTHING cool about a Fairmont. I always thought they were. Looking forward to seeing more of the progression on this car.

Eric thank you for posting this video. You and Paul did an excellent job of explaining everything. Because you have this video up I am going to save myself $800 and rebuild my own T5. Thank you.

Bravo! Paul really knows his stuff. He certainly deserves the great reputation he has.

Awesome Eric, you and Paul make it look so easy.

Man, I love your videos. Thanks to you I was able to learn enough and get brave enough to buy my dream car. She's a 1964 Chrysler Imperial. I've already fixed a bad fuel system and tuned up the Carb. Thanks a million!

Best show yet. Looking forward to the follow up.

I just say thank you so much for nice and clear tutorial and people can learn a lot from you guys Eric and Paul.

really like these cross-channel presentations - such a lucky day and age to be able to watch these experts at work.

Great video here, it's one thing to look at a diagram and kind of assume how everything works but it's something else to have someone so qualified run you through it. Paul has a great video presence in that he not only shows everything and describes what it does as well as shortcuts for disassembly but also throws in little bits of the history and does so in a confident manner. Great video, thanks guys.

Thank you so much for this video! I was considering rebuilding the T45 in my mustang but kinda got overwhelmed by it. But with this tear down video and seeing how everything works, it's given me the confidence to be able to give it a shot!

Eric is quite skilled, but I must admit that when i comes to this gearbox, Paul is just incredible! This has been a real pleasure to watch!

This has to be one of my favorite videos of all time. I wish I could have been there to ask questions too. I tried to read up on my T-56 but then ended up sending it to TIck Performance. When I do my build I am going back to T-5.

What a great video AND guest!! One of your best for sure!! Loved it!! Thanks!!

Amazing info, thank you Eric for having him

Eric, thank you for all of your wonderful videos.

Awesome watching someone work on something that they clearly have an exhaustive knowledge of. Great video.

Its awesome to see someone talk about a topic or subject that they know like the back of their hand. When Paul talks about the transmission and all the little details, hea really makes sure that he says everything he knows about it in order empart this information to other people. Cant go wrong with listening to this man. I learned so much just from watching this.

Isn't he awesome? I've never met Paul personally but I tell you I like him a lot, First off I fell in love with my first Muncie 4 speed, then to find a really special individual like Paul that's as passionate and knowledgeable about something I really like gets my attention, I'd be honored to do a rebuild with him.

Bumped into this video as it was sugested, nice to see he was teaching you something and you were teaching him something. (plastic tool)

Great video Eric. Awesome to see a specialist in action! It's nice to see you had something to teach him (the plastic rotary disc) as well :)

i didn't even realize the video was an hour long, it was so entertaining i sat here and watched start to finish. as a DIY'er myself videos like these are gold. Great info and now i know were to get a kit shall i need to rebuild a t5.

Thank you Paul! I subscribed to your channel (+followed on FB) and I plan to order the book this week because you have been so helpful in these 2 videos! I already got my ebay T5 rebuild kit, it was delivered months ago and it has been sitting all winter. The good news is we've used this kit before in our Chumpcar racecar, so I'm not too worried. But your kit would have been so much better! Note, at the first signs of trouble I'll be ordering your kit! Again, thank you!

Wow, Paul knows his stuff! I do feel like he would look just as comfortable and professional in the kitchen of a very expensive restaurant. He's got that 'head chef' look about him 😋

Very nice video Eric!

I lost track of how many times I heard Paul say "lot of people don't realize" after like 39 times lol. Like a lot of people don't realize this guy knows a lot about what he's doing, and likes to point out that others don't lol. I say this with humor. Great video though. I really do enjoy the content from both of these guy's channels. Good information, and absolutely great instruction on the "how to", and how to do it the right way. Love it

Great video! highly informative. Paul is fabulous at teaching us viewers what he knows.

It's always great see someone do something like this when the obviously know exactly what they are doing. I'll never use that info, but some good general principles.

This is the best video ever on Transmissions it definitely showed me that I need to take my transmission to a professional

I enjoyed watching this. On to part 2 now.

HOLY SHIT you Stepped it up a notch in this vid. love this guy now i need to own his book.

great video guys!

I loved the moments where he complimented Eric's tools. Warmed my heart. :')

That was amazing! Thanks Paul!

Had a T5 in my 1988 EA Ford Fairmont Ghia (Australia). Loved it; especially that ratio on 2nd gear.

This video is fucking incredible. Paul knows his shit.

I wish I could hit like a few more times, Great vid Eric & Paul. Well done guys and thank you

Your videos are top notch Eric

Ah,learning you are Eric..That's awesome that he's cool enough to not mind help on his show,it's just transmission is a whole other trade

Bravi, Eric & Paul 👏🏻 Great camera work too. 👍🏻

What a WEALTH of information!!! Nice job guys!

I'm an aging mechanic and will probably never rebuild a T-5, but I sure enjoyed watching the tear down and Paul's commentary on what has caused the various problems with this tranny.

This had to be one of the best videos lb KZread

Damn that hour went fast. I could watch this stuff all day!

Paul Cangialosi is a stone cold expert. That this guy knows what he's doing is intuitively obvious to the most casual observer. In short he has his shit together.

A rebuild video for a manual transmission, whaaaaat? Need to file this under rare instructional artifact in preparation for the next generation.

Awesome video!!! Thanks guys!!

This is an amazing video, thank you

Love it! Like I'm going to school. That's a beautiful transmission btw

I am impressed just listening to how much he knows about this transmission

Excellent video. I often wondered when the auto salvage I dusty would catch up with the times. Looks like it definitely has. Thx for sharing.

Awesome video very detailed. Nice hand press too.

Good video Eric!! Return to form achieved!! ;) Fark... Paul must of done a thousand of these T5's!!! Knowledge is impeccable!!

Paul is the top guy when it comes to transmissions!
