Here's how I went about removing the T56 from my Trans Am in order to do my own transmission rebuild.

[@primotote]

Thanks

[@madnesshero4675]

Excellent video, applies to v6 5speed trans as well.

[@royhummert7281]

Going to be doing this soon on my ls1 Camaro. Doesn't look too bad . Definitely need a trans jack. Thanks bud.

[@TehGoldd]

Was there any differences for your ls1 car

[@royhummert7281]

@TehGoldd small things. But very similar

[@f296877]

Great video!

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Thank you!

Pulling the transmission I made the mistake of not pulling the shifter plate off and had very very tight gap to get the transmission free from the bel housing because of my x pipe. It was doable but definitely gonna be removing the shifter to reinstall.

[@johnjohn-xo5gl]

, im curious about the white plastic piece i holding the rod for the slave cylinde, it looks like it gets removed for the install but when you removed yours it was still attached.

great video I like the "Ronald Finger" approach to the voice-over ... I have tried doing voice-over for my videos but its hard ...to do and make it seamless

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Thanks a lot man. I can totally relate. I think I just got lucky on this one lol.

[@realdeathpony]

Well done video! Gonna check out those jacks too!

[@Hughjasswipe]

What I'm finding is alot of this stuff isint hard.. there's just alot of steps and in my case most bolts take alof of swearing, tool throwing and debating If I even want to build my car to get them loose 🤣 once everything's said and done tho it's really satisfying and rewarding tho 👌

[@AshleysBlissfulCreations]

This is amazing work!

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Glad you think so!

[@rce4726]

Great video! You should do one on a c5 Corvette! I have a donor car...

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Thanks! I'll look into that lol

[@Token650]

I know this is a old video but when I replaced my slave cylinder on 97 was I suppose to leave that plastic strap on?

[@TheTrothKeeper]

Quick question. At 2:30 the rear pumpkin mounted torque arm... What size are those bolts and nuts? TY!

[@mubashircheentavida]

It might be just easier to separate the transmission from the bellhousing and remove the bellhousing after the trans is removed, could be wrong though.

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

You're absolutely right. I can't imagine trying to slide everything back with the bellhousing attached to the transmission. I just removed the bolts that held the transmission to the bellhousing. The orange in front of the transmission is the bellhousing and I just left it attached to the block.

[@str8upkills60]

Is this the same for a ls ws6?

[@riklarr820]

Hey Nice, how much time did you achieve this please ?

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Can't remember exactly but it went faster than I expected. If I had to guess? 2hrs or so. Maybe 3hrs max. And that was with taking my time to set up cameras and film. Having the lifts helped speed things up a lot.

[@clifford_2zero7]

And I'm just realizing this is one of your last videos! Still got the bird?

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

Yep, It's still going! Hit 250k miles a couple months ago.

[@halfcockedFame]

What year is this car?

[@TheBudgetMindedMotorist]

1995
