These videos are awesome. I found out that a Dana 44 front wheel bearing locknut socket works for the shaft retaining nut! They call it the small 4 prong one.
I should have a GM book on the 420. If you go to my @GebBuilt Facebook page you can comment and I will try to post pics of that rebuild from my book! I’m not on fb often but I will keep my eyes open for you. The only problem I see with my info is figuring out the other name for your SM420. Chevy calls the SM465 the “117mm transmission” in my books. Hopefully we can figure it out.
@@dsim9988 I apologize I'm extremely late in replying but if you're still wondering hit me up on my Geb Built FB page - I think I have the manual and perhaps I can send you pics of the pages
I've rebuilt this transmisson before, but between my fuck ups and a few of yours, I think I'm getting a really professional rebuild this time. I do have a tip for you though. The lock nut for the back of the main shaft with the 4 notches in it. If you have a dana 44 or a GM 10 bolt front axle, the socket to remove the bearing nut that holds the bearing in those hubs will work on the transmisson as well. I can't remember really, but I might have had to use a file on the socket a little bit when I used it on the transmisson because I bought the socket to change the u-joints on my front axle yokes.
Your videos have helped me out tremendously and I've managed to keep my old 1 ton on the road! Glad your keeping these videos around. Family comes first✌
Great video, I will be working on my Ford NP 435 in the future, it looks like all thesev light duty pick up truck top loaders come apart the same way. Thank you so much for your help and videos.
Just a " correction " from a tool and die guy . *** Never drive a ball bearing in by the center !!!!!! You want to drive it in by the biggest outside race !!!! If it's a press fit on the center bore to you would want to drive them in on both surfaces at the same exact time / contacting both races with a driver ! Heating the bearing and cooling the shaft with dry ice prior helps alot to . If neither is practical , motor oil , wd, anything helps to help get and keep em moving . Just trying to help , but hiting the inside race can easily distort the bearing leading to noise and premature wear and possible failure .
Been trolling your vids for a few years. I did my np205 last year with your help. This week I just finished the sm465. Good job, thanks for the quality reference material.
Great video! I just did this same build from the manuals. You are right the instructions out there are poor at best. Your video is much easier to follow! Thanks for taking the time to do this one. Great work!! I used your video to check my work. Now my trans in my 1972 truck and working great.
Okay... You overlooked a few details in your videos, but what you provided to us overall is an enormous help. I just finished my SM465, my NP205 & without your help, I might have given up & had a shop do it; you literally made it easy & fun. Balancing our gearhead way of life with domestic life is quite a challenge. Thanks a million for your help. Good luck & God bless.
Hey geb saw the built for sale on Craigslist a couple of times. I'm hoping that you keep it because it's really inspirational to see that someone is building something. Veery awesome in their drive way with out a big shop to build it in.
I really appreciate that and I did get it sold to a good guy the other day. The money from it has put my family in a much better financial state Which is something I ignored while building the truck. I was choosing the truck over family and it was doing damage to all of our hearts. My future dream is to make performance and fabrication my full time career (instead of trying to squeeze it in every night and weekend) then fire this TH-cam channel up to full speed. Thank you so much for the kind words and hopefully I will be posting more good stuff soon! God Bless!!
Excellent video instructions on the SM 465. I've watched all 3 videos about 10 times. Rebuilding mine you made it a lot easier, Thank you! btw Very well behaved kids nice to see that for a change. God bless.
I apologize I just saw this comment, thank you very much! I am always glad to hear that my videos can help people! Thank you for taking the time to let me know, God bless!
Very nice work brother, I know I'll be coming back to your videos again and again. We've got three rigs with the Muncie 465 and all I can say is they seem to be virtually indestructible - Love that box! Here is a piece of info I just picked up that you may find interesting - A front mounted overdrive box that jumped in between the engine and the 465 *****" It's a "Double Torque 2XT" , and was made by Power Torque Industries, Inc. Company, in Arlington, Texas.. It was made to bolt onto this SM465 G.M. four speed truck transmission that we are using.. We understand this company sold out to "Advanced Adaptors" and they continued building this same unit with very little changes.. They are now called the "Ranger Torque Splitter". . They no longer have the Eaton electric solenoid though, as the earlier units did, and have gone to strictly manual shift.. Although we have the electric solenoid, we decided to manual shift ours also.. "***** I dont know a thing about them but it looked cool in the video I watched. Keep'em Rolling!
Just a tip for everyone. You can make a sling by wrapping an old serpentine belt around the shaft and gears to lower them in the case while you hold the belt from up higher out of harm's way.
I did make a new gearshift lever reusing some of the old pieces. Also, your video helped me get the top cover reinstalled, with the transmision still in the truck.big help . C'ya
Good job, looks great. I did exactly what you did about to the T. If you ever get an itch to run a Braden pto winch off that side cover on your tranny, Ive got the complete set-up. gearbox for tranny, just hangs off bolted cover area, control cable that actuates it, wich with 3/16 cable rated at 10,000lbs.(they say these older winches can pull down a house) and a nice roller fairlead to cut through your front bumper and mount to. Oh and both driveshaft u-joints have been well greased and are tight as new. It came on a 1 ton 1970 Chevy 4x4 from Boring, Oregon. Very, very rare!!! By the way I am in Waukon Ia. Jim. (P.S.,not to be bossy but I really believe in running Royal Purple 90w-140w gear oil. in that 465). I even ran Royal Purple in my tractors and implement gear boxes the last years I dairy farmed.
Thank you so much for your knowledge. I accomplished getting the top on. But now one more issue it doesnt want to shift in any gear. Almost feels like its stuck in a gear....
reciente me suscribi a tu canal , he visto pocos videos pero lo que he visto me gustaron mucho y por supuesto he aprendido , vere todos tus videos , gracias por enseñar ,
Howdy I was wondering if you'd be willing to do a ride along video with some shifting on that muncie after the pin to bolt for the fork rod ball grooves, I would be interested In doing that to mine if that works good 61 apache long bed 283/465
That is great, I am so glad my material can help! I like to use a good quality engine enamel like Plasti Kote. If Plasti Kote is not available I do Rustoleum engine enamel. Thank you for watching, God bless!
Blurry can see it clearly, lol thanks BigAl, ok do you know if there is a crush sleeve on the rear yoke ?? If I pull the rear yoke to replace the yoke , Is there end play measurements needed with a crush sleev ?? Thanks BigAl California praise Jesus Christ grace amen 🙏 thanks
hows' everyone's main input bearing large outer snap ring thickness effect the proper flush fit of the retainer? mine will only go flush if i remove the outer clipring. same deal with the rear main and the 4x4 adapter. its like i could just have the two machined out to fit the bearings and their clips just a litte to fit. everything fits perfect and works. just cant get past thinking there must be thinner clips? or let the bearings "float"? mine look the same thickness as in this video btw
I soooo appreciate your videos. I'm about to start my 465 rebuild, I have the parts coming in from Novak w the 3rd gear upgrade also.This is my question, are the Novak instructions sufficient (along w your videos) or did you also work out of a gm tranny book? If you also referenced the book, which one? Thank you!
Awesome, I hope I’m not too late in replying. I also used 2 different GM books which helped a bunch. If you message me on my GebBuilt Facebook page I could shoot you some pics!
OK, I seen the oil slinger on the input shaft.. Now that I know what I'm looking for... . You just don't mention it in your description.. Neither does Novak for that matter... I also see how it goes on. Thanks for you videos... I rebuilt my transmission because of our videos.. very informative..
Do you remember if the screw holes behind the contershaft cover went all the way through the case ? Im having to regasket mine and I have a leak behind that cover
When you put the input shaft in, isn't there supposed to be an oil slinger installed on the input shaft behind the bearing? I got a rebuild kit and that's a part that's left over. I don't know where it goes if it's not at the input shaft? Also I'm having a hell of a time getting the snap ring on the input shaft.. the kit I have doesn't have a nut.... it has a snap ring. Thanks, Larry
Hi Larry, I am struggling trying to remember an oil slinger. I made these vids a couple of years ago and I haven't touched one since but what you describe makes sense. I wish I could be of more help right now, but knowing myself it will come to me in an "AHA" moment and I will be sure to let you know! A good quality stout set of snap ring pliers is a must for these! Thank you so much for watching and inquiring, God bless!
Your kit probably came with both styles of input shaft bearings as some do. I give the extras to my kids to play with. ;) Thank you for watching and commenting! God bless!
I believe so. I have not done that swap, but I do believe you are correct that it is a direct swap. Novak adaptors would be able to answer that question definitively I'm sure. Thank you, God Bless!
Thank you for the kind words! I had become obsessed with the truck project and my shop. The time, money, and attention that I put into those projects was taking precious time, money, and attention away from my beautiful family. I chose to sell the truck and my shop equipment in order to provide a better environment for my wife and sons. I will continue to manage this TH-cam channel and share my experience by answering comments and questions with future hopes of adding updates and projects!

Hey can you give me verbal instruction on how to properly put on the top cover gasket? First rodeo. Im just swapping top covers because I believe my 1st fork is not moving properly. Just wanna make sure I get gasket on correctly.
Well usually those are just a typical gasket made of either cork or the other stuff gaskets are made of - place it on, install top cover, ensure gasket stayed in place, if not, line it up - torque top cover down. I think I've posted top cover removal/installation instructions straight from the GM manual on my Geb Built Facebook page. If you go there and it's not posted, just send me a FB message and I'll try to help you out there. BEWARE there is a proper way to remove the cover that will save you a headache!
@@Mwellmac You could use a thin layer of the sealant of your choice. If I use anything for stuff like that it would be Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket. Put it HALF WAY into reverse. Put the shifter in the slot and only drag it half way back not the whole way.
@@GebBuilt sounds good. Im working on an ice cream truck. After watching all these rebuilds etc i feel the shifter forks are causing it to not go into L and 1 is rough. Bought a decent top cover with forks for 200 and just need to swap it out. Unfortunately truck is at paint shop currently and top plate is on hand just waiting Im itching to see if it corrects my issue
I'm having some issues getting my sm465 back together. Think you could take a look at the newest video I posted on my channel and let me know if you have any ideas please??
You mentioned the socket to torque the rear mainshaft lock nut, after looking for the factory socket I was floored by the $250+ price of the bosch tool. Did you end up making one or find another solution? Thanks
+joshua cravens good question! Gl5 is what I've always used and my rebuild kit instructions recommend it too. If it is bad for the synchros then I've never experienced it nor have I heard of it. I won't say whether your info is correct or not, I will just say what has worked for me. Thank you for commenting and God bless!!
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for asking! To make a long story short, the truck became an obsession and the obsession was contributing to the neglect of my wife and children. I finally realized what is most important in my life!! I hope to someday start building and videoing again but only if I can manage it as a family venture! I am so grateful for your support of my channel and I will keep all of these videos up and continue to answer comments and questions! God Bless You!!
Hi Geb, great videos. I have been using them to rebuild both my transfer case and tranny. I know you were taking some time off to refocus on you family 👍. I wasn't sure if you had ever done the video of the top cover. If not it's all good. Take care.
Hey sorry I missed your comment when you left it! I never did get around to making that top cover rebuild video. Thank you so much for your understanding and taking your time to leave a comment! God bless!
@@GebBuilt Did you put anything on the bolts like loctite we've changed mine and it's seeping around the bolts and I have a seeo around the counter shaft cover gasket more of a significant leak but im going to re do it all.
Dr Johnson Hungwell yes any time the bolt holes go all the way through the case you should clean the holes and bolts and use good thread sealer like loc tire brand. Great question. I hope this helps
@@GebBuilt I bought the loctite blue that is oil resistant , the motiv gear PTO gaskets and the pernatex grey rtv that is for gear oil so maybe it won't leak now .
SimonTek yes you’re correct. I had to make some big changes for my family before I was able to follow through on that promised video so it was nixed. I apologize for not following through. God bless, and thank you for your input.

Do you remember if the screw holes behind the contershaft cover went all the way through the case ? Im having to regasket mine and I have a leak behind that cover

@@Mwellmac You could use a thin layer of the sealant of your choice. If I use anything for stuff like that it would be Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket. Put it HALF WAY into reverse. Put the shifter in the slot and only drag it half way back not the whole way.
@@GebBuilt sounds good. Im working on an ice cream truck. After watching all these rebuilds etc i feel the shifter forks are causing it to not go into L and 1 is rough. Bought a decent top cover with forks for 200 and just need to swap it out. Unfortunately truck is at paint shop currently and top plate is on hand just waiting
Im itching to see if it corrects my issue
my 465 want go into fist or 2nd what ever you prefer to call it until it all most stop is there any update kits to prevents this
Hi thank you for asking! If I'm understanding your question correctly I'd suggest taking a look at clutch adjustment to start! God bless!
How different is a sm 420 build? I have a 63
kevin schettler good question, I think they are similar, but not sure if the rebuild would be the same or not. I would check with Novak Conversions.
I'm having some issues getting my sm465 back together. Think you could take a look at the newest video I posted on my channel and let me know if you have any ideas please??
You mentioned the socket to torque the rear mainshaft lock nut, after looking for the factory socket I was floored by the $250+ price of the bosch tool. Did you end up making one or find another solution? Thanks
I actually found a spanner socket in my tool box that was close enough to do what I needed it to do. Got lucky!
Wow $250 that's ridiculous!
+GebBuilt Do you know what it was actually for? Part number?
+GebBuilt acutally $250 was a typo, i meant $350+!!!! The average cost is $400
+Tony More holy moly!!
Hola amigo tengo la misma caja y tiene un poco de juego en la directa es normal?
Franco Joaquín Gasques I’m sorry no comprende.
I have a question on mine sir
What kind of oil is recommended for the sm465
80w90 GL5. Thanks for watching and commenting!! God bless!
+joshua cravens good question! Gl5 is what I've always used and my rebuild kit instructions recommend it too. If it is bad for the synchros then I've never experienced it nor have I heard of it. I won't say whether your info is correct or not, I will just say what has worked for me. Thank you for commenting and God bless!!
+GebBuilt thanks
Love your videos man. Why haven't you been uploading lately?
Thank you for the kind words and thank you for asking! To make a long story short, the truck became an obsession and the obsession was contributing to the neglect of my wife and children. I finally realized what is most important in my life!! I hope to someday start building and videoing again but only if I can manage it as a family venture! I am so grateful for your support of my channel and I will keep all of these videos up and continue to answer comments and questions! God Bless You!!
GebBuilt sorry to hear about that man. Im glad to hear you made the right decision tho. Good luck with everything your doing and god bless.
Thank you sir!
Hi Geb, great videos. I have been using them to rebuild both my transfer case and tranny. I know you were taking some time off to refocus on you family 👍. I wasn't sure if you had ever done the video of the top cover. If not it's all good. Take care.
Hey sorry I missed your comment when you left it! I never did get around to making that top cover rebuild video. Thank you so much for your understanding and taking your time to leave a comment! God bless!
Cool . Send me the address for parts. Thank you for your videos..
Did your PTO covers leak ?
Dr Johnson Hungwell no
@@GebBuilt Did you put anything on the bolts like loctite we've changed mine and it's seeping around the bolts and I have a seeo around the counter shaft cover gasket more of a significant leak but im going to re do it all.
Dr Johnson Hungwell yes any time the bolt holes go all the way through the case you should clean the holes and bolts and use good thread sealer like loc tire brand. Great question. I hope this helps
@@GebBuilt I bought the loctite blue that is oil resistant , the motiv gear PTO gaskets and the pernatex grey rtv that is for gear oil so maybe it won't leak now .
i'm not talking about the granny gear
Are you saying it won't downshift into first until it almost slows to a stop?
Yes
Can u help me with my noisy sm465 sir ? 10 sec video in my profile, if u have time !! Bad release bearing or something else ? Great series by the way.
Thanks. I have a 465 in my 69.
Awesome! Have fun with that 69 and thank you for watching and commenting! God bless!
Man the parts take forever to get in, 4 years later there still not it.
wow...compared to an automatic this is ridiculously easy.
ZeroPoint haha yes!
No you won't make a video when stuff comes in...
SimonTek yes you’re correct. I had to make some big changes for my family before I was able to follow through on that promised video so it was nixed. I apologize for not following through. God bless, and thank you for your input.
