Richard and Teresa Crich here to teach you about transmissions and other automotive techniques. Richard Crich back at you with my educational transmission videos. We will have videos up shortly.

I have successfully rebuilt many engines from Toyota to Chevrolet and many others. But transmission have always been a nemesis of mine for some reason. Way back in the day, I helped with a 727 Torqueflight and that is the only transmission I have literally been into. R&R quite a few but that is different ballgame altogether. I am literally in awe of Richard's ability to remember where all these small parts go and what function they serve. Much respect for all professional transmission rebuilders that take care of the details like Richard!
Saw you and the Dirty Bird at the flashlight races on 7/6 your car looked great the track wasn’t great but you managed to get that monster down we went to the semi finals in true street and crossed over for a loss but it was a good day car has had some pretty major changes and still managed to make some passes
@@richardteresacricheducatio3542 I was the guy by the track shop on the return road in the Mack Toter silver fox body that the Turpen’s own you gave me a thumbs up been wanting to meet you for a while but we were too busy that day
@@levi743 going to be looking at a rear bushing and rear seal I would use a dealer seal only no aftermarket and bushing will be aftermarket. If you buy the bushing from the dealer, you have to buy the tail housing because the bushing comes in the tail housing only transtar sell the bushing
Great vid .....Just done one of these , exact same case . With that steel plate it looks like you are blocking the vent passage to the extension housing. When I looked to it more it was said is using a solid rear support or plate it must be drilled for a vent. The later Reid cases have the case milled so vent connects down lower different to these early ones That 5/32 vent passage goes to a cavity and that plate with no hole blocks it off. The "Race" gasket in a set has a 1/4" hole
I call BS on your comment on oil being in the electrical connector. 1st since when has oil been conductive, 2nd the other end of the wire is UNDER/SUBMERGED oil. 3rd if this is the case every car on the road would not run because your fuel pump is also SUBMERGED in gasoline.
@@frankpatterson9453 man oh man, you need to go down and find the other comments and listen to the people on what they talk about believe me fluid in a connector causes problems in an external connector
Could this high pressure issue you mentioned cause oil to pour out the front seal? I just removed the trans from my Mustang, the seal is only 4 years old and looks brand new but it was puking oil everywhere. Thanks
At 36:50, the bellhousing that bolted to the case,(not to the pump at all), was originally for a truck or van application. The wider bolt stance and not being attached to the pump made them stronger in 2 regards,(pumps leaked less and motor connection was stronger). Then they made the C-5 (lock-up torque converter version) that also had the bellhousing bolted to the case.
at 46:10, the rooster comb pushes a pin on the park pawl linkage. On newer units I have found a bushing on that pin to make it fatter causing more 'push' while in park. There is a lot of room for the linkage to move away during drive selections so no problem for the pawl being too close while moving. Thanks for this video! I have never seen you do a 42RLE, Can you soon? Please!?
2:26 into video, my guess is one of two things, and they both center around the direct clutch - either the clutch is gone or the stub shaft splines are stripped. I'll continue to watch to see what's up!
1971, i had a chance to buy 100, 6-71 blowers For $50 each. New still in the box.. I couldnt find anyone to recieve them on the West Coast. I was going to Engineman school for the Coast Guard.. Bummer.
I had the transmission rebuilt in my 04 Expedition back in 2021. I don't think it was done right. It slams into 2nd gear, the OD blinks but it does go into OD. It started leaking fluid after the 1-year warranty went out. I guess I'll keep driving it until it goes out again. I have to add fluid every couple of months so that's not too bad
I'm glad you have boy's to share your knowledge with my two daughters don't care about cars and I build trans, engines and differentials. I'm also ok with wiring shorts but they care nothing about learning
I'm a Ford guy but it looks like a real pain in the ass transmission.. with lots of things that go bad even if you don't burn rubber too often.. looks like the transmission could deteriorate just by sitting there...😮
I enjoy marvelling at your expertease while watching these videos. Why does it seem that 80% of your work is on GM transmissions, and only 20% is on Ford and Chrysler transmissions?
I think it's wonderful that you have these video's. Not only do you show how the transmissions are assembled and how they fail, but the vehicle owners can also see what went wrong and what it takes to fix it.
Nice to see another 4r75 tranny on the table. I've rebuilt mine in my service van based on your videos of former "patients" and I've got way more experience on these than I ever wanted. All I can say is thank you for these incredible, AND incredibly informative, videos. They help many people from pros to idiots (me) who should have put the tools down 4 steps ago. My tranny works because of you and I had a great time rebuilding and learning something other than engines. Nice job and thank you to you both. BTW, the part of the video you got confused on the bearing.... so did I only to find out after installation. I was not happy.
Ooof even though I haven't worked on those things in 25 years, I still remember the part #s. 7D100 and 7C155 valve body gaskets....7902 torque converter and it goes on and on and on. Why would I know? Cuz we did a whole bunch of them back in the day. There were so many of them. But, that is what is also cool about Ford part numbers....same basic number applies to every transmission or whatever you're working on. I like Ford part numbers...they also make excellent passwords for computer stuff.
