4L80E Rebuild Quick Overview for First Time Builders! You can do this! 

@talljake Yep that was the idea. Hope you found it useful. Thanks for watching!

Yessir, basically looks like a th400 rebuild with a few extra fiddly bits!

Thanks! The pump rebuild video is on my channel here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wiPA_OO4F_k.html

@cameracamera1319 I just figured it would be helpful for beginners to see the basics and get an idea what it takes. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@Suds. Thanks and glad you found it helpful. The pump rebuild video is on my channel here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wiPA_OO4F_k.html

@ThomasHegland No problem, thanks for watching and good luck on your build!

@davenevarez4738 Ok I will get that underway. Thanks for the feedback!

@@vikingmech I would appreciate that as well.

@TheSargeK5 Glad to hear it! Thanks for the feedback and good luck on your build!

@slingingsteel9744 I was the same way and I think a lot of other people have always wanted to rebuild a transmission too, but just thought it was too complicated. Hopefully everyone can see here that its not impossible. I love driving a manual too.

@83SquareK20 No prob man, thanks for the feedback! Let me know if there's any part I should do a more detailed video on. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@RobinLovins Thanks! Hope it was helpful for you.

@aubreyroche5080 Hahaa! Thats cool man. I wasn't sure anyone would even watch this video!

@RANDOMNATION907 You're welcome...and thanks for the feedback!

@SharifSalukis Wow, thats a great compliment. Thank you! Get well soon and get that project done brother!

@@vikingmech Thank You!

@kevinboutwell2243 Where did you find that info? Not saying its wrong but I didn't see any mention of that in the ATSG manual or the video classroom series I followed. Would be nice to know if I need to tear my trans all back apart again for that or not. Thanks!

Good question. I just looked in the ATSG book and can’t find anything about it. I had a friend show me that a while back thats done lots of 4l80s along with the bevel going down. I’ve also seen a couple rebuild videos of others that do it all the time and they line them up. I did it because monkey see monkey do principle. I just looked at a spare sun gear and intermediate shaft and the area where the hole lines up with a internal grove in the intermediate shaft. That hole has to be getting oil even when the holes aren’t lined up. My friend is out of the country right now so I can’t ask him. My gut feeling after looking is it doesn’t matter. The only thing i can say is the 2 holes lined up directly might spray oil better? If my buddy ever gets back in town I’ll ask him.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R7JB8Jqcif0.htmlsi=Z4Uc-47GSOuympUA Start watching this video at minute 18. Like you said, the book doesn’t say it and there’s a groove in the intermediate shaft. I’m not sure but mine is definitely lined up.

@@kevinboutwell2243 I did find an answer here (post #105) that says indexing the oil holes is not necessary. A few other random forum posts seem to agree, so I'm thinking its not necessary, hence no mention of it in the book or videos. bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/4l80e-rebuild-on-a-suburban.284668/page-6

@@kevinboutwell2243 Yeah I found that same video with a search, and saw him line up the holes. I think this must be similar to lifters in an engine. They have oiling holes but they don't line up with the oil feed holes in the block and they're in a groove which would be entirely pressurized. So the orientation of the holes doesn't really matter. Thanks for commenting though. Always good for myself and anyone else watching to learn about this stuff!

@toddsculley2710 Thanks!

Thanks man!

@timdontwannasay5889 The pump video is on my channel here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wiPA_OO4F_k.html

@dennisalstonZ06 The one I'm rebuilding in this video is a 1998.

The he's working on in the video is a later model.

@@dennisalstonZ06 Yes the guy in the instructional video mentions his is a 2003 model. That would explain the smaller blue roller sprag in the overdrive drum.

@papergatorzfedducca7998 At the end of the video I show the resources I used. The ATSG manual has most of the info you'd need to know, but the video course from transmissionbench.com shows how to do the air checks etc.

@@vikingmech ok thank you and I love the video. I still have a few minutes left to finish it.

@@papergatorzfedducca7998 Awesome thank you for the feedback. That really helps me figure out what kind of videos people like to see.

@@vikingmech So basically as a beginner it’s best to assemble one part at a time? And when possible can do another one or a 4l60e😂😂😂

@@papergatorzfedducca7998 Yep one part at at time and in the right order. I highly recommend that video course. They show how to do each step. There are a lot of details I didn't show in my video but if you just follow their directions step by step, its not hard.
