I'm almost 10 minutes in and I have to say I love watching you transmission techs go at it, I work on a lot euro cars but we leave trans out projects to the local transmission shops. Also love seeing these pieces of machinery used to their absolute limit, and thank you for documenting it. Ended up here down a rabbit hole for lubricant reviews after using some royal purple in my range rover but I know I need to reseal the PTO covers on the NV4500 in my dodge and do a driveline fluid service soon(only 350k lol). I don't even have this trans in my truck but I do see your video on an Oreilly's NV4500 teardown on the sidebar and that's up next, can't wait. Keep at it, love it 👍 thanks
Why am I watching you rebuild a transmission that I don’t even have? Because it’s relaxing ha. Your shop is top notch and your helper is awesome. Dude makes me look lazy when I work on projects haha
Thanks for sharing. What type of symptoms do you think the owner would have seen or felt prior to his major failure on both the Nv4500 and the NV5600, or what should we be paying attention to ? How often do you recommend changing the oil on the NV4500 and NV5600?
In my NV56 I run two quarte Lucas oil stabilizer the Dino type and top it off with Amsoil sever gear and works great and makes it shift and down shift the best so far and what do your recommend as far as trans oil .
Please get the young fella to wear gloves. Cancer sucks from working in oils etc. ask me how I know. Get him to Google causes of r chop cancer treatment it’s petro chemicals

That looks like a testament to preventative maintenance and quality lubricants, as well as responsible driving, all paying off!

Super interesting thank you!

Redline MTL or Pennzoil Synchromesh, 6 QTs
You need a winch bad, that chain hoist sucks and way to loud !
I’ve been asking, at what point should you consider a rebuild?
Only when there’s symptoms presenting. If they’re cared for and working well, they can easily last 700k+.
Where are you located?
What fluid and how many quarts do you recommend in an nv5600?

Synthetic oil does the tarnish color most of the time.
