With the transmission apart, we will start the rebuild process by completely disassembling, examining, cleaning, and then reassembling the transmission oil pump with new seals and bushings. This is a very crucial part of any automatic transmission, and we will cover the entire rebuild process.

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

There is a seal in one of these videos (maybe the next one? I don't even know at this point) but I also tried not to go too overboard because I'm sure it's just annoying to some people

@SC457A 5 лет назад

I recall seeing it now. Good stuff. Trans overhauls are kinda fun, but lots of little details can turn it into a big pile of scrape metal also.

I worked for GM dealerships rebuilding these units (and others, like it's earlier variant the 700r4) from '87 to 2007. I would estimate I've worked on thousands of them. I could probably show you a few tricks, but only because of the sheer volume of problems and repairs I've been involved in (including self-induced problems!). You are a very smart guy, extremely resourceful, and your videos are very interesting and entertaining, thanks so much!

@hw5091 2 года назад

I had a question for you. Mine is having delayed engagement when warmed up in first gear. When at a stop or shifting into first, it will go into an almost neutral state, and then w a slight tap on the gas, engage into first and drive like normal. My suspicion is the pumps booster valve (I have the model where I can't get to the boost without removing the transmission and pump, turbine speed sensor in the way on an '08). Does this sound like the problem possibly? Chances the pump cover is bad as well? Maybe because the booster has bored the hole out over time (175k, was rebuilt 50k ago by previous owners local trans shop). I'm going to do a line pressure test tomorrow, obvious see how that goes.

@Roscotech 3 года назад

I can’t really fault you for using the zip ties to resize the Teflon seals as that is what I used on my first rebuild and I have little need to troll others. However you need to been carful as the zip ties (especially on the input drum) can cause a small high spot on the ring that can actually end up cutting a wear pattern inside the stator which eventually allows an oil/pressure leak. This is stated for information only. Thanks for making your video!

@JacobVaughan 5 лет назад

Great to see the info about the front stator support bushing. I got confused as the one in my kit was thicker and I thought I had the wrong one. You confirmed for me it's actually correct and fatter by design. Thanks!

You could place the bearings in the freezer for several hours before putting them on the piece. Because of that it somewhat shrink and its easier to put in place

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

True, I have done that with some press-fit pieces but since bushings usually push in without much trouble I don't think I've ever tried that with them. Might make the install even easier, will have to keep that in mind for the future!

I'm rebuilding a 4l60e pump, this after decades of Engine rebuilding I've never attempted a Transmission rebuild. That said, dozens of bearing replacements in engines & wheels, I've never seen or used myself, any type of Thread lock or similar on Bearings. I've never had a Bearing break loose & spin. That's why Bearings are "Pressed" in. Weather by hand tool or Press. But Good video. Not criticism just I've never done thread lock for bearings.

You don't need loctite on a seal like that, the red outer coating IS a sealing compound.

The 60's don't have a problem blowing out the seal. That was the early 700's before they added the lip to the pump to keep the bushing from spinning and pushing the seal forwards

@ejonn65 2 года назад

Can someone tell me that if the filter at 3:18 is plugged, will that cause a fluid starve issue? My trans works when you first start, but then after a short time, like a minute, it growls like a low steering pump, and loses all gears. Turn it off for a minute and it works for a minute again.

Pretty darn complete. It would be nice to have spare teflon seals on hand though, and most people replace the plastic accumulator pistons with aluminum ones, but those are not included. Really isn't anything off the top of my head that is missing from a "master" kit like that, though.

@splash5974 5 лет назад

@@FuzzyDiceProjects Do you have a direct link to the kit you used?

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

For the exact one I used, search "4L60E Transmisson Heavy Duty HEG Master Kit With 3-4 PowerPack Stage 4 2004-UP" on eBay. Honestly, you'd probably be better off with fewer clutches and thicker steels in the 3-4 pack for heat reasons, but I'm sure using the whole kit will be fine. Some people will swear against ALTO in general, some against ALTO Red Eagle bands, but I have seen at least least some complaining about every brand/material out there. Bands are cheap enough that getting a wide one and just putting the Red Eagle in the kit on the shelf wouldn't be a big deal. For a drag car, a street rod with a shift kit, or an HD truck a different clutch material and specialty bearings might be worth it but I think these basic parts will get the job done in an average application just fine.

@@FuzzyDiceProjects Ok, thank you very much! Il have a look

@RedWhiteAndBlueVideo 5 лет назад

Your videos are great. You are very knowledgeable. I do have one question on the use of the Red Threadlocker. I know that you can use a torch if you ever have to remove the bushings, although loctite does have a green threadlocker for bearings and races, which might make disassembly a little easier, if the transmission is ever rebuilt again. What brand torque wrench are you using?

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

High strength threadlocker will only really work the way it is designed to when used on threads, it helps hold a bushing in place but is actually less strong than a green retaining compound in that application. Next episode we actually have to knock a bushing back out when things end up not fitting quite right, it isn't terribly difficult. The small torque wrenches (1/4", 3/8") are just Harbor Freight specials. Their 1/4" wrenches are actually pretty good, especially when having an exact torque number is less important than just having even torque. I have had issues with several of the 3/8" wrenches though so I wouldn't recommend them. The Amazon brand Tekton wrenches I have used (and I have a 250 ft/lbs model from them) have all been quite nice for the price.

@justincrasi4638 4 года назад

Perhaps the loctite helps slide the bushing in, but considering how much force is required to press them in, I question its actual locking function. I could see using them in an engine, but transmission aren’t combustion systems. Maybe loctite is an industry standard?

@Tater79bj 5 лет назад

Why didn't you want to use trans assembly grease, or Vaseline? It makes things so much easier.

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

It is definitely useful for a couple of steps, like checkballs and the plastic pump thrust bearing, but I haven't really found it necessary for many of these steps. I know a lot of people use assembly grease extensively for rebuilds but I haven't had issues with not using it.

Aren’t Teflon seals supposed to be installed dry?

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

To be honest, that is something I'm not too knowledgeable about. The ATRA rebuild manuals have you using assembly grease to install them, but some teflon seals are pretty specific that they are to be installed dry. Something about the outer layer of teflon sticking to the surfaces it is sealing against on the first startup and oil might interfere with that. I haven't had any issues, but I haven't run a transmission I have rebuilt for 100k+ miles and it probably isn't anything that would make a difference in the short-term. Might be something worth some further research.

@lNetogamerl 5 лет назад

Fuzzy Dice Projects Just asked my teacher and he says that installing dry only applies for ones that are not fully internal like rear main seals on engines, so you did do everything correctly.

Fuck... Don't use scotch brite... That has aluminum oxide in it that will fuck up the trans... It was a gm bulletin where they said no to use it for head gasket removal because the alum oxide would ruin bearings in "as little as 1000 miles" the engi

@FuzzyDiceProjects 5 лет назад

Scotchbrite is a great tool for refinishing a surface and perfectly acceptable to use even inside of a transmission, as long as everything is cleaned very thoroughly. The issue with using it for head gasket cleaning is that it is quite often done with the short block still assembled, and it is difficult to keep dust from the pads from working its way into the bearings. If everything is apart and cleaned after the use of Scotchbrite, it is a good tool, even recommended in ATRA manuals.
