Built my own transmission myself, after paying a shop here in LittleRock to do it and it didn't last 6k miles. Followed all of Richards suggestions for updates and improvements .3 years later now, and still going strong.Very grateful for your videos.!!
We've been noticing microphone issues in the past few weeks to a month. In this video, Richards mic is off. Other videos we notice his mic will cut off then on again and sometimes stay on the rest of the video however, the opposite happens too. FYI.
Happy holidays keep up the good work hope everything is good with the family. Family is very important you're not going to been around for ever so I hope thing can be patched up have a nice day
Glad to see you both back , I kept checking for new videos on your old account and finally found this new account🎉.I have enjoyed watching your videos .
Awesome. Another stellar tear down video you guyz. Would be interested in a build video of this unit and how all that Sonnax stuff plays together. I'm gonna haveta look into that input drum manufacturer as well. Be Well...
So excited to see you working on a performance build filled with Sonnax goodies! I'll be needing your services pretty soon Sir.... Oklahoma to Amarillo... not too far!
Teresa and Richard thanks for taking the time to post the video . I don't know what you are doing most of the time, but I enjoy watching. I hope you have a Happy Holiday. Mark McKenna from Tucson.
Ohh Man!!! 2024 is starting off right! I just found your New Channel. Thank You!!!! I wish you both a late "Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year"!!!!!!
I had a 2000 GMC sierra big truck lifted big heavy tires transmission was serviced filter fluid all the good stuff and we done it 20,000 miles occasionally every 15,000 it would get done but never over 20 that Transmission lasted from 2000 at time of purchase, it was a used vehicle low mileage and it was still running great 15 years later with almost 330,000 miles on a factory transmission. The rear differential had been done twice.
You guys need to get I Mic on Richard. My speaker is always turned up and sometimes it’s very hard to hear. Especially when he goes off rambling around the corner to look for a Servo or tool. lol. Keep up the great work! I love the channel.
I started watching when you were at your other place, Precision transmission . It has always been very interesting. That being said it is sad that all your experience is going to be lost in just a few years since you are not training anyone to fill your shoes and that will be tragic.
Id point out that his knowledge is well documented in these videos, and him not having someone in the videos doesnt mean there isnt a shop helper learning from him daily.
I always changed my transmission fluid when the fluid was still in decent condition I didn’t let my fluid get real bad this way when you change it when it’s still good you always have good fluid in your transmission but I use Amsoil transmission fluid. Now course I use Amsoil and everything.
When they engineered and installed that speed sensor, they have a plan. All of those engineers were looking at each other, saying general motors. We are gonna make a fortune off of this one. It will be back soon and we will get paid extra for removals and repairs.
I have a 4l65e out of a 06 gto im rebuilding, this transmission has a lot of similarities to mine. Unfortunately mine was run low on fluid by previous owner and the pump body has wear. The pump has the input shaft with teflons moved for the iss teeth but no teeth or sensor so the pump stator has the hole for the sensor but the pump body does not have the hole for the sensor. Transtar only shows the pump with a hole in the body for the sensor, not sure if that will cause any issues running that pump with a hole but no sensor. I can find a used one that looks right on the outside but is risky that the inside will be any good. Kind of stumped at the moment on what to do
Always amazed how easy he makes teardown look. Wearing gloves makes it much harder to hold onto this stuff. Never seen him struggle getting the band anchor off either. I need more practice.
Hey Richard I got a 2022 gmc canyon 8 speed when cold it has very hard reverse shift only but when warmed up it shifts fine took to dealer and “said there is no codes and don’t know why” heard lot people say change fluid still under warranty
Alot of the 8 speeds have issues, and there is a bulletin to flush the trans with a new type of fluid. Yours being a 22 model it already has the new fluid though.
Lol, Richard's gonna shit when he reads this....😮. ... Richard be nice to me😅... 2007 LTZ Tahoe, built in 12/05, in service date 01/06/06.... I have NEVER TOUCHED THE TRANS DIPSTICK.......😮.... it's got 150,000 pretty easy miles, it gets DELO every 3500 miles, but the trans has never been serviced or even the level checked. I have a concrete driveway that's clean o😂f ANY oil leaks (rare I know, DELO is my answer 15/40 diesel oil). It has even towed my 7x14 enclosed to the bike tracks. Runs fine, ... Richard YOU wanna Crack it open first-time ever...??....
Richard I've watching your channel ever since you started with TH-cam why not have one torn down and cleaned and not video it and instead show us you rebuilding one I watched the rebuild on the 350 I think it would really jump your subscribers up if you would show rebuilding one every once in a while I love watching your channel but tearing them down all the time gets old watching I know you said it takes a while and you have to much experience in this line for anyone taking your secrets anyone' can take down one but putting it back takes a experience tech to get it right

Good to see you on the air again Richard,Teresa and Miss Annie! Sure missed you
Well good evening Richard and Teresa and of course Annie 🐕😎👋
I’m glad to find your new channel. I hope you have a great 2024!
We've been noticing microphone issues in the past few weeks to a month. In this video, Richards mic is off. Other videos we notice his mic will cut off then on again and sometimes stay on the rest of the video however, the opposite happens too. FYI.
I thought his microphone was off, it was unusual as I had to have my phone all the way to hear.
Love all of your videos
Glad to see y’all back! Looking forward to seeing one of the best back at it!
We are excited that you found us. We are excited to be back. Thank you for your support.
Always love your videos. I think that there was some issues with the microphone.
Glad I found you again!
Glad your back btw
Another wonderful educational hour from the best teachers in the world! Thank You!
How many "educational hours" do you need to catch on to a 4L60E disassembly? Three years worth not enough for you yet?
Love you guys.... I haven't built a transmission in 20 years.... just so interesting to watch yall.... thank you again......:)
love the content. I hope if my transmission fails when driving through Amarillo, that I am near your shop.
I love your videos. I watch them for hours. I would love to work for you. From Chicago, keep up your good videos.
Happy holidays keep up the good work hope everything is good with the family. Family is very important you're not going to been around for ever so I hope thing can be patched up have a nice day

Holy bageezuz. i thought you disappeared form youtube, i just found your channel. man such great videos to watch.
It would be great if you guys would do a assembly video
doubt he’d put his secrets out
He sends' them out to be rebuilt.
@joepeanut6827 OH ok cool.

Thank you very much same to you. We are excited that you found us. We are excited to be back.
"Write that down" 💖
We're driving my 1997 Suburban 2500 5.7 4L80e (rebuilt) w 336k from New York to Rockford Illinois. 12mpg...
Nice video guys.

I do trans service once a year along with diffs and axles. If you tow heavy or frequently I do twice a year for trans services
I always changed my transmission fluid when the fluid was still in decent condition I didn’t let my fluid get real bad this way when you change it when it’s still good you always have good fluid in your transmission but I use Amsoil transmission fluid. Now course I use Amsoil and everything.
Is the shop still precision transmission? Glad you’re back in TH-cam.

I like that every video your subscribers keep rising. WEll done. And did Richard forget to turn his mic on?
Maintenance.... What a concept 😶
Het Richard, how about a link to that fancy input drum your talkin about n this video?
Ive been trying to find it as well...must be in prototype phase still

Performa built has a new side servo they designed. Havent tested one but would love to see how it performs.
It’s proprietary to their units Bryan WILL NOT sell u just the servo units
Tell us how well the 6 pinion planet behaves when you have it all up and running. It would have been overkill for me, but still kinda jealous!!
Do you guys have merch? I would love to support you guys
1st Rrrrrrroad Trip View!!!
You folks need to do a real transmission one day. A TH180 😂
Great video! Richard have you used any of 4l79 drums?
Hey Richard I got a 2022 gmc canyon 8 speed when cold it has very hard reverse shift only but when warmed up it shifts fine took to dealer and “said there is no codes and don’t know why” heard lot people say change fluid still under warranty
Alot of the 8 speeds have issues, and there is a bulletin to flush the trans with a new type of fluid. Yours being a 22 model it already has the new fluid though.
can you get a Viton O ring for that front shaft?
Pls show us BUILD TRANSMISSION videos... always dismantling never rebuilding
I thought that the slide spring stop was to keep from venting off fluid at high rpm
You’re 100% right so that pumps move some fluid at higher RPM
What is the 3M product you refer too for glueing in the front seal?
What is your pricing on a built 4l80e full manual valve body?
Is there a phone # to get a hold of them. I would like to get a 4l80e transmission built
Lol, Richard's gonna shit when he reads this....😮. ... Richard be nice to me😅... 2007 LTZ Tahoe, built in 12/05, in service date 01/06/06....

Richard YOU wanna Crack it open first-time ever...??....
I have a 4r100 in a 2001 Ford Excursion 7.3 that I would like you to work on...is that possible?
Richard I've watching your channel ever since you started with TH-cam why not have one torn down and cleaned and not video it and instead show us you rebuilding one I watched the rebuild on the 350 I think it would really jump your subscribers up if you would show rebuilding one every once in a while I love watching your channel but tearing them down all the time gets old watching I know you said it takes a while and you have to much experience in this line for anyone taking your secrets anyone' can take down one but putting it back takes a experience tech to get it right
Be careful that rear 5 pinion is a aftermarket planet
I would love to follow Richard advice, but I can’t hear a goddamn thing he saying you gotta get s mic bro 😂
Sorry about that. We don’t understand what’s going on, but we will figure it out. Maybe Mike placement on my shirt needs to be different
why this channel never shows anything about rebuilding a transmission, maybe I’ve missed them but seems it’s always a tear down.
Hey Richard I need your 6l80 overhaul service
Anytime let me know when you’re ready
Love y’all but the audio was not so good
Your mic not working
You guys get bored I’ll drive my 7.3 powerstroke E4OD over from Phoenix,Az. Can’t watch your videos and trust anyone else locally
