Excellent video, easy to follow. Key points: Have right tool for job which is detailed in video. Organization as many parts are directional including snap rings. Prelube parts during assembly, soak clutch discs overnight. Remember you are building stacks so beginners should keep sub assemblies together to minimize confusion of all parts. Keep all parts very clean and no contamination, pay attention to details and work in a SAFE manner. Caution: Sharp edges, must use a Torque Wrench - Aluminum .
if you have a hard time installing the clutches , its hard to explain , I used the snap ring pliers to grab the shaft to turn to work the clutches in place, it worked!
What would cause a 4r55e transmission in a 1996 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition to break flexplates intermittently even after replacing the torque converter twice????
I’m a first time builder, uh oh! LOL Anyway, I tried to be very careful to maintain direction during disassembly of the 4R44E but I’m worried I may have lost direction on one or more of the needle bearing thrust washers.... I’ve got the Ford technical manual but it’s not helpful regarding the matter. Is there any way to visibly tell which direction they go? Some have a wear pattern that helps me but others do not. Any advise? Thank you.
you need to have that video guy show what you are doing more, not just part of it and skipping around, showing tha side of the transmission and a glympse of the part that is placed in , that doesn't help when I didn't do this type trans. before,
I agree he says now install this and the camera guy is showing after he starts to install. Guess it's take a wild guess and hope you're right with the part you choose
