Hi Jay, Want to thank you for taking time out of your day to post these videos. I mainly do GM units. Last month I did a Turbo 350 going into a 9 sec car. Took 5 "working" units to make 1 complete trans I felt comfortable building! Had a guy contact me about a C4 build (800HP) and I asked him how many units he had? "One, from 1965. Shifted great 10 years ago behind the 289 2 bbl" car he got it from was the answer. Nobody gets it! Again THANKS for your insight and I feel your pain!

I think some people dont realize how old this stuff is and very little aftermarket support.

You always have groovy music playing in your shop.

@BroaderPerformance 3 месяца назад

Helps pass the time. I dont work where there is no music.

Another great vid, thank you.. Very sensible content as always.. Hahaha best 2-3 flare , I had a guy take me a drive in his big USA brand name C6 he loved, I thought it was the worst lol

@BroaderPerformance 4 месяца назад

Thank you. Unfortunately made in USA isnt always as regal as it once was. Maybe someday we can get back to building with pride again. Lets make American products great again.

You know this guy? Haha He was around back in the old days like you guys were.

Thank you for your videos I went and looked at a spare planetary gear to see how them pins would come out looks like you would have to drill them out

@BroaderPerformance 4 месяца назад

You can actually just take a punch and a hammer and drive the pins out. It just breaks the little roll pins. Its crude but it works.

Hi, another question. If this is a DIY project, sort of, for a mechanically inclined person. How do get the roll pins out ?? Not seeing it. Thanks

@BroaderPerformance День назад

You take a pinch and hammer and drive the main pin out. The roll pins will sheer.

Where do you get New needle bearings ?? Also what the part #’s for the other bearings . Great video

@BroaderPerformance 11 дней назад

I don't have a source for new needle bearings. I'm not sure on part numbers just measure the od and Id and any competent bearing supplier can help you.

Talking about Chris at CK on the rollerized parking brake I bet! His valve body’s that weren’t copied were trash

@BroaderPerformance 4 месяца назад

Not Chris actually. I think the guy I was referring to is retired now.

@mikeholmstrom1899 4 месяца назад

The GM 200-4R also has the pinion rebuild issue. You can buy the brass & steel washers, but, no one is selling the pins, gears, or needle bearings.

@BroaderPerformance 4 месяца назад

That's another small planet subject to failure. Too bad someone doesn't take this on. I will look into it at some point. I want the pieces made in the USA though. Could be costly.

@mikeholmstrom1899 3 месяца назад

@@BroaderPerformance From another channel here at RU-vid, the Ford 8F35 apparently, had a run where the pinion needle bearings had a hardness problem. Transmission Digest has a picture of some of the needle plain worn out. You can buy a new planet for $200 for this, but, planet failure tends to trash a lot of other parts on these.

@97outlaw01 9 дней назад

Hello, another question. Are you using the GM #9436851 in the hub ?? And on the reverse planetary and drum.That the bearing to use, through out a C4 build ?? 👍🏻👍🏻

@BroaderPerformance День назад

I'm not familiar with that part number. It is a th350 stator bearing

@jamesstoy8967 3 месяца назад

Could a few holes be drilled and chamfered along with some grooves in the friction washer?

@BroaderPerformance 3 месяца назад

The washers are too thin to make grooves in. Just groove the gear.

@jamesstoy8967 3 месяца назад

@@BroaderPerformance And that should help shouldn't it?

@timreiners5540 14 дней назад

@@BroaderPerformance Do you suggest grooves on both sides of the gear or just one and if just one which side the load side that usually eats into the planet carrier or the other side? Just curious because if I can not install the bearings I could easily put the grooves in the gears as that sounds like it would help for sure.
