I just did the lead frame with no code. Mine is a 13. Just missed the recall by 4 months. It downshift one time while in town and speedo quit twice for a few seconds. Great video and info on that 6r80. Thanks for sharing
Gary always something learned watching your videos. Thanks for taking time to do the videos . With the hassels the camera can be and time to make the videos . Thanks for the lesson
Hi Gary thanks for the best informative info I have found. Three quick questions if I could. That spacer, is that an end play spacer for whole gearbox. I notice you don't check clutch pack space, is because you have only changed clutches and not steels. And last You don't soak clutches. Do you have a method to ensure they are oiled up before operation. I like the idea but not sure if there is an oil up step. Cheers Rob
Idk why mechanics say the 6r80 is a reliable transmission when the torque converter is an issue. If it can’t last beyond 200k miles regularly serviced then it’s an unreliable transmission.
This video helped me keep track of all my parts for disassembly and reassembly. Had to drop the trans again though, leak coming from the front. Ran a paper towel around the seals and they were dry. Only fluid appeared to be coming from the pump bolts themselves. Maybe it needs thread sealant or something. Any ideas would be helpful!
@GaryFerraro there was ATF on the fluid pump but it appeared that the fluid was coming from some of the ounting bolts. There was no fluid trail around or at the bottom of the seal. I did replace the seal. I didn't replace any of the bushings though. I'm about to order a bronze bushing kit from omega machining while I've got it apart and double check everything. First transmission I've ever attempted!
For trans work would you recommend a diyer try it or just send it to a shop? This both seems complicated and simple at the same time. Also for servicing transfer cases and diffs should they be services sooner then the trans or just do everything at the same time when needed?
Is there any difference in this 2011 vs a 2013 f150 3.5l 4x4??? I have a 2013, I assume nothing really changed between them since it’s the same generation.
Hey Gary I commented on ur old video about pcm and testing it 3 years ago don’t know if u will get it but where do I hook up the voltmeter I got a 08 Jeep Liberty with that same issue and want to test it before replacing pcm
@@That_Lb7 you need a wiring diagram to hook up meter on each of the wires for the range switch. Do you know someone with a snap-on or autel scan tool, you ,can check with a scanner to see if reading the correct range
@@GaryFerraro yes I got a buddy with a snap on scanner so if I use the scanner and it doesn’t show the right ranges does that mean it is for sure the pcm
If you toss a trans like this in park when moving in reverse for 10-20ft and it’s ratcheting but never slams into park will there be any damage to the trans? Is so would it be detrimental? Is there any tell tail sign if it’s damaged or that this has been done to one?
with these computers in these, i don't thin k it would allow it to go to park. On the 8 speeds, you have to be doing 1MPH or less for it to go into park
@@GaryFerraro first time I put it back together one of the tubes never went back in so when I took it back apart I only found pieces of the 3rd tube. About to replace all 3 just wondering if having one of those seals missing would be the reason reverse doesn’t work and have delayed engagement.
I’m assuming I’m not getting enough fluid pressure do to that missing seal. Just looking for someone to verify that putting 3 new tubes in should fix my issue

Thank you for your educational and entertaining videos Gary 👍🏼
Thanks for watching

I really love watching this and learning about this type of transmission..I just wish you could get a little closer in there!! :D
Sorry about that, will keep that in mind
Nice job Gery! Thank you🙏
Thanks for your help . Great job
Thank you sir
very good as always.
Thank you
Here for some review. I had good line pressure but shuddering like a missfire.
Hi Gary thanks for the best informative info I have found. Three quick questions if I could.

When you pulled the converter out what was wet with oil? did you change the front seal?

@@CalicoRiot ok, just to confirm, the whole bellhousing was not wet just the bottom?
@@GaryFerraro yeah it was just the bottom of the bellhousing. The leak was fairly slow.
@@CalicoRiot ok, did you replace the seal and it is still leaking?
ありがとうございます。
勉強になりました。

Sorry.
I learned a lot from this video.
Thank you very much.

I would do everything at once, good to service the other items, noone really does
I don't know how you keep track of all those shims and bearings and where they go back LOL. I'd have everything all mixed up LOL
Sometimes i have to look at what fits where myself, In most cases i have 3 to 4 transmissions on the benches at once
@@GaryFerraro better you than me... thats why experience is the mother of all teachers
@@nicke2307 It sure is
Is there any difference in this 2011 vs a 2013 f150 3.5l 4x4??? I have a 2013, I assume nothing really changed between them since it’s the same generation.
Will changing the trans fluid extend the torque converter life before it will start slipping or is there nothing that can be done about that?
If it is just chattering and no to far gone, it may tale the chatter out, if to far gone then nothing
How many miles did this truck have and was it ever serviced? Also what was the longest lasting trans you ever seen before it needed rebuilt?
Probably never serviced. The longes was the one i made a video on, 500,000 mile 62TE
Gary, is this pressure tap on the ZF6HP26 also?
thank you gary for sharing these precious and valuable infomation
one question if you pleased are the solenoids problematic like on zf 6hp
Some people say they are, but i haven't changed any yet, i recently did about 4 of these units and used the solenoids.
@@GaryFerraro thanks God bless you
What fixture are you using to hold the 6R80? I seem to be having a hard time finding one. Do the universals fit?
No Fixture, i just put it through a hole in the bench
@@GaryFerraro I meant the case.
@@wendymeis2853 I have no fixture, i load up the case on the bench up to the center support then stand the case up and load the rest in
Hey Gary I commented on ur old video about pcm and testing it 3 years ago don’t know if u will get it but where do I hook up the voltmeter I got a 08 Jeep Liberty with that same issue and want to test it before replacing pcm
What is the issue, any codes for the trans?
@@GaryFerraro the p0706
@@GaryFerraro all the range lights are highlighted and it doesn’t start

is it possible to HYBRID the 6R80 internals into a 6HP26?
I believe there are some differences in the internal parts, i don't think they can be swapped

with these computers in these, i don't thin k it would allow it to go to park. On the 8 speeds, you have to be doing 1MPH or less for it to go into park
because I can see that it hits in making the change to second
Wow it is just like a ZF 6HP26 only crappier
very similar, same bushing kit and i believe the same overhaul to
@@BrendanPerez Thanks for the info
@@BrendanPerez the 2nd to 1st downshift on my 6HP26 @ around 12 - 6mph or 20 - 10km/h feels and sounds like it wants to snap an CV axle shaft!
What are those 4 tubes? Mine only had 3 but one is missing
6R80's may only have 3, it varies, just make sure nothing is stuck to the valvebody
@@GaryFerraro first time I put it back together one of the tubes never went back in so when I took it back apart I only found pieces of the 3rd tube. About to replace all 3 just wondering if having one of those seals missing would be the reason reverse doesn’t work and have delayed engagement.

Also am I safe to put the old transmission fluid back in after I’m done?
