Wow, what an awesome video!! I can smell the transmission fluid all way down here in Texas. I really learned a lot about a 727 transmission from watching this video. Everything was so clear, and the sound was amazing. Excellent job on the video George, the editing was first rate, and the background music was very enjoyable. Nick, you are the first one to be inside the transmission since it was built. I was amazed at how little was wrong with the trans, just 1 noisy bearing on the tail-shaft, not bad for sitting all those years. Some slight staining on the internals, but a good cleaning will take of that. I was pretty hard on the trans when I was driving the car, but I knew the 727 could handle anything that I put it through. The Chrysler engineers really knew what they were doing when they designed that transmission. I know that the trans will be better than new after Nick the Mopar Master works his magic on the 727. I hope that the Charger will be back at Nick's soon, so the assembly can begin.

Thank you. As you can imagine, no one person designed that transmission. It was a team of engineers, designers and technicians. There were improvements all along the way, upgrades to handle higher engine torque, improved manufacturing processes, better materials, noise reductions, shift improvements, etc. Over the years, team members came and went and various managers served as their coaches, to coordinate their efforts and make sure the team met all their objectives. Any of them that are still alive would really enjoy hearing the praise you heaped on them while you were conducting this teardown.

@williambrand7887 3 года назад

I know in 1950 the Hydro-Magic trans was a 4 speed. The first transmission class I took was in college. Went to the junk-yard and bought a good Torqueflyte transmission to tear down and study. My Instructor made us memorize every valve, servo etc. of the Hydro-Matic for each gear plus reverse and neutral for our final exam. He used this trans because he said it had every kind of hydraulic valve and timing devices in use at that time, this was the mid-sixties. The Instructor had a Doctorate Degree in Hydraulics. I was just starting out as a mechanic and wanted to learn more about automatics. I had already been into a couple and I knew I needed to upgrade my skills. All my friends told me “don’t take that class you won’t pass it”. Still have my textbook. I’m 73 now, was probably 19 or 20 then. By the way the Instructor handed out the finale exam and each student had a different gear. My final grade in this class was an “A”. Back then if you worked on engines, transmissions, rear ends you were known as a bumper to bumper mechanic. That’s what our master Mr Nick is. Not many left to pass on this knowledge. Nick and George, great job. Thanks and stay safe.

Watching this almost makes me think I can pull my 727 apart myself and perform an inspection! I have a '74 Challenger that had a 318 replaced with a 383 somewhere in its life and they paired a 727 transmission with an 8 3/4 rear end. It engages 2nd and 3rd gear nice enough but 1st and reverse have some clunkiness and the car is making a high pitched whine at around 40-50 mph. Not 100% sure that is the transmission noise but I am suspicious. I did just change the speedometer gear and that was a super tutorial as I know I did not pay attention to aligning the housing correctly. Going to head out in the garage today to see if I got lucky or if I need to reposition. I am totally new to all this stuff but learned a TON from great content creators on RU-vid like you Nick. Thanks so much... you have no idea how much you helped me with not only excellent technical information but also with inspiration. You are the best! Happy New Year!

@unclemikeb 3 года назад

As always, a really great video from Nick. My Jeep Liberty came from the factory with synthetic fluid in everything. The dealer replaced the trans fluid at 35,000 under warranty when the torque convertor ceased locking up at highway speed. There was a recall on it so I got it done for free! The mechanic told me with synthetic it would be safe to go 80,000 miles between fluid changes unless I pulled a heavy trailer often. So I did. At 120,000 miles I changed the fluid and it looked good I was wondering if it was necessary. Then at 200,000 miles I took it to a local shop and asked him to look it over careful for any signs of wear or trouble. He told me the pan was so clean he wiped it and stood it on end, didn't need to flush it. NO SHAVINGS OR PARTICLES! But, I don't abuse it and I live ten miles from the nearest town so it gets a good warmup every where I go. That keeps the moisture out of it. I am totally sold on synthetic and will not be using anything else in the future.

Nick, I had a 727 on a 69 GTX in a 65 Belvedere. I loved that car but I could not keep it from scorching t-fluid. After about 5 rebuilds my Dad and I gave up and sold her. I always thought maybe the kickdown was not right... Fast Forward 40 years and one night I was reading A&A Transmission's pages and I was shocked when I read the words "Never overfill a 727 with fluid or your fluid will foam up and scorch". I cried because such a simple solution may have allowed me to keep my Girl. 🥺

@tint661 3 года назад

Once again Nick you have taught me something. I didn't know about the position of the speedometer gear housing. I just turned the housing until I felt the gear was touching the output shaft. I never looked at those numbers for the teeth. I have replaced the shifter seal, the front pump seal, the rear out put seal and the neutral/back up switch when they leaked oil. I have also adjusted both the front band and the rear band. A guy I know installs the shift kit in your valve body in his basement yet today. Now I know how he increases the line pressure that gives nice firm shifts. Most people don't like that firm feeling so they decrease the line pressure, which causes heat from the parts slipping. Believe it or not I got my ASE certification for Automatic transmission but have never really rebuilt one.

@irav4u 3 года назад

He did not really explain that the housing had to be clocked to compensate for different number of teeth causes different size gears. The housing is offset to ensure proper gear meshing. I have made training DVD's and have often said things that, after viewing the dvd, I wished I had said it differently, so I understand.

@robertkoontz7865 3 года назад

That's really something. I've never seen the inside of an automatic transmission. I'm very impressed with the way you like to do things by hand, rather than just zap things apart with a power tool. This way if there's a stripped nut, bolt, or threads, you know it by the feel when it's coming apart. Love the videos, I'm always learning. Even if I never do that work, at least I have an understanding of what's going on and why.

The 727 is without equal in the automotive transmission world. Over the years adapters have been made to bolt the 727 to many other brands of engines. Back in the late 60's and into the 70's serious drag racers actually modified the 727 putting a manual clutch in place of the torque converter making what was then known as the clutchflight transmission. Basically it allowed a launch rpm at whatever you wanted with the benefit of automatic shifting.

Okay you guys, pay attention and don’t be afraid to work on yours. Get the books cuz Nick wants to pass along the knowledge to the new crowd. Us old guys are not going to be available forever. The guy who taught me is now working in the” Big Guys” garage full time.🤔

Excellent episode!!! That was an expertly done teardown!!! I really like the B&M shift kits for these and other makes of transmissions...That piston between the low/reverse & kickdown servos is the accumulator... It gives 'smoothness' to the shifts... But that 'slushing' feeling between shifts tends to wear out the clutch's & bands more rapidly... Many people have greatly extended the lives of their automatic trans by 1)Changing the fluid & filter every 50k. Miles 2)Installing a larger aftermarket ATF cooler 3)Installing a B&M shift-kit 4) And removing the spring in the accumulator and installing a rod in It's place, to stop the movement of the accumulator piston...

im not sure if anyone else is using this method but before i tear down a trans rebuild job i get the grease off then i let the trans dry very good then i duct tape both seals front and rear then i sand blast lightly not taking any material away but putting a sparkle back in the aluminum case , you can also put the trans in a bead blast cabinet but they are a bit harder to get in a cabinet, this method also works tremendously. and if your lucky enough to have a dry ice blasting machine that also works great. keep up the wonderful work Nick

Bert Cartwright, who was responsible for the design of the Torqueflite transmission, was the best transmission designer in the world. "While he was going to Wayne State University in Detroit, he had a part time job designing bicycle transmissions, so he probably had nearly 50 years of experience in designing transmissions. Bert and I were in the same Chrysler Institute of Engineering Class of 1951." - Product planner Burton Bouwkamp

Amazed at how much the clutch pack looks like a motorcycle clutch. Learn something every day.

Love Nick's confidence and candor. I've had to do my 63 Belvedere 727 typewriter because a previous owner let it set several years. Thanks Nick for pointing out the telltale signs of setting. Only got 385,000 miles out of my 81 Cherokee before having to rebuild the lockup 727 in it.😉 Thanks so much for sharing your vast experience with us nick. Can't wait to see how you compress the clutchpack piston seals.

My Neighbor transmission mechanic installed the Cheetah reverse manual valve bodies and used Mopars full rebuild kit for 10 second race cars for years with no issues

@joeljenkins2876 3 года назад

Afternoon, gentlemen!!! I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video and all videos from Nick's garage. I agree with you Nick: every time I've seen a valve body from an automatic trans, I can only shake my head in amazement at how the engineers figured out that MAZE to direct the fluid to where it's needed. Fantastic sir, as always!! 🙂

Almost 40 years ago a 727 was the first transmission I every rebuilt. It lasted 25 or 30 years and I still have it but it's been sitting for years now. I had it in a 70 Challenger, a 70 Challenger RT, 69 Road Runner and finally it's sitting in a 23 T bucket Roadster. Yeah I would say they are one hell of a transmission. Thanks for the great video Nick!

What's the condition of this 727 transmission Nick is on a teardown mission It's an automatic from a true classic Eugenes Charger 500 matching numbered Ordered by Eugene new it's been in storage for many years and now it's with Nick and the crew to be rebuilt straight and true Nick is more than a mechanic he's a teacher a true pro and who you'd want for a leader He's gonna break it down step by step so when you watch you can go back and check That's why Nick's Garage always gets my respect
