Hey will you look for an Lexus ls430 for a project, those things seem to be a bullet proof s class. Would love to see you tear down a high mileage one with not many service records.
I rebuilt my 4L60e in my kitchen. And in high school, we rebuilt my buddy’s 1986 mustang’s Tremec T5 in his driveway and garage. Anyone that says outright that this is something they’d never “DIY” has never been broke enough to worry about it. When you have no choice, diy is all you got.
Rebuild a old b2200 5 speed…luckily mazda kept all the same transmissions on their rwd vehicles in the 80s and 90s so watching a few video on RUclips was all I needed to get it done.
I'm am IT guy but I turn wrenches all the time, not only would I rebuild a manual trans again but you and Sreten give me the extra confidence that I can do it!
Alex blows my mind every time. Yes a lot of us are in these businesses. A lot of us do these things for a living ,but this man is a full spectrum problem solver. Anything and everything.
When I was 16 years old I bought a 1956 Chevy 4100, it had of course a manual transmission, and it didn't shift very well it didn't run very well and a buddy of mine said we should rebuild it, we pulled the transmission out tore it down on the bench. didn't do it as well if you did it didn't follow all the rules I guess but we did manage to get it back together after we replaced a lot of worn out old parts, and then we put it back in the truck. We did install a new clutch, and keep in mind this was 1969... So I think we paid a whole $25 for the clutch, and we did not resurface the flywheel. We just started out on our mechanical adventures and I bought the whole truck for $75. My dad said it would never work, but did we pove him wrong?... But after that he never questioned anything I said about mechanics. When I was 17 years old I took his car to the high school and we rebuilt the engine in high school auto shop class, it was a 65 Chevy Impala with a 283. We rebuilt the engine, in the school during school hours and it ran great when we were done. Course now I'm an old man, and I don't do too much of anything anymore, but sometimes I enjoy watching your channel. Thank you.
Same here, done my fair share of frame off body restores and rebuilds of major drive trains. I love living vicariously through LSC, keeps me from endless projects and bloody knuckles.
In the same boat, I’m old and gimpy and can’t get under cars very well anymore. It’s fun to watch someone else doing all the work and having to fix mistakes from my comfortable couch 😂
@@JackassOfAllTrades07 enjoy it while you can. Glad I didn’t make it a career but also very happy with self learning and exploring mechanics while learning about life.
I heard "maybe someone can DIY this with my video" and got about 15 minutes in and determined that no, I will definitely not be DIYing a transmission hahaha. Awesome video though and I'm glad I got to see how it all works.
Yeah, we'd need a gigantic counter and years more training. I have done repairs based on your teachings, but no Alex, just no.... Especially after you had to redo it. 😂
@@LegitStreetCars It may be a lot, but I would definitely do a trans rebuild if I had the money, tools, parts and space. Also, if you think about it, those plastik teeth with the ball bearing center the shifter ring and make smooth shifts possible. Otherwise the ring could become even slightly crooked and really mess up the gearteeth.
The plastic shifty thingamabobbers are called Keys. And yes, I've done a few Tremec 6sp rebuilds diy just like here. Tremec publishes the complete rebuild manual for free.
How much more could it cost to make those out of a softer metal material that would last indefinitely, versus plastic/nylon/ect that will eventually fail? As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Great video as always. The detail is everything, it’s what people want to see. This is by far the best and consistently entertaining auto rebuild/modification content on YT.
I've been working on cars for close to 35 years. I would not hesitate to do this kind of repair myself. A comprehensive video like this definitely helps.
Many moons ago the 4-speed manual in my BMW 2002 dropped all gears. Select any gear and no drive at the output. Upon disassembly it turned out that the cage of the secondary shaft bearing had broken, allowing the secondary shaft to completely disengage from the input. My dad rummaged around in his store room and found the precise bearing, a $3.00 part! I was probably 20 back then and was doing a lot of mechanical work on engines and motorcycles. But this was my first surgery on a car transmission, together with my dad we opened and re-assembled the trans in about 4 hours taking it slow. Worked perfectly fine after that. Fast forward 30 years, this gave me the courage to dis-assemble my 2003 X5 automatic transmission in 2010, one O-ring on one of the clutches was bad but I just replaced all the seals and clutch discs along with a few bearings. The culprit was the torque converter which puked a bunch of aluminum shavings into the trans. Cleaned everything up and I still own that X5 about 65k miles later. Very satisfying job but like Alex said, you have to be methodical about keeping everything together when disassembling.
Soooo just to clarify some important details that are foggy for those that wanna know exactly how this works. The "plastic thingies" are actually "synchro preloaders" theres a groove inside the shift collar that the spring loaded ball in the "plastic thingies" snap into. When you begin a shift, the "plastic thingies" push the synchro first. This causes the synchro to rotate by half a tooth so that it is in the way of the shift collar. When the shift collar hits the teeth on the synchro, it pushes the synchro into the gear you are selecting. Half the synchro is keyed into the shift hub that the shift collar is riding on. The other half of the synchro is a friction cone that drags on the gear you are selecting. This causes the gear to speed up or slow down to match speed with the output shaft. Once the speed is matched, the torque on the synchro drops nearly to zero. So now the taper on the beginning of the tooth on the collar pushes the synchro out of the way and allows the collar to engage into the selected gear. They are never perfectly aligned so the point on the nose of the tooth that the collar engages with assists with aligning the teeth. Then boom, shift complete.. So those "plastic thingies" are a critical component to prepping the synchro to do its job. Without them, you'd likely grind more times than not.
thank you gadget... nice explanation of Alex's "Plastic Thingies". Actually, was curious enough to try to google what they were and name and failed to find them...again thanks
Yes I would rebuild my transmissions, I already rebuilt my automatic transmission 6HP-21 on my BMW 335I at home in my small garage, I replaced the clutch packs, and after putting everything together was shifting the gears so smoothly and no more vibration on acceleration, thanks Alex and keep up with what are you doing, you are a inspiration for us
Im not a mechanic, but a few years ago I successfully rebuilt my 1966 T-10 four speed. Saved some money, knew it was done correctly, and had the satisfaction of knowing I did it myself. Also learned alot along the way. This was a great video, please keep them coming!
"Lost a clip, found it" the magic of video editing.. We all know Alex spent 2 hrs on the floor screaming bloody murder trying to find that clip. Only to see it was in his shoe laces. 😅
I lost a bolt for the plastic underpan under the engine last weekend changing an O2 sensor on a W212. Looked for half an hour. Was sure it had to be on the ground since the car was just on jack stands 6" above the ground. Was not on the ground. Stuck to the magnetic base of a portable LED work light. Couple months ago lost another bolt on another job. Kids came over. Offered one $10 just for shits and giggles to find it. He said "you mean that one?" within 15s. Bolt had fallen and traveled a postal code away to the other side of the driveway.
37:06 YES!! Alex, we all super appreciate you being very thorough and attentive!! I have never done anything nearly as in-depth to a car, but I really love to see the inner workings and listing to how things work!
As a man who has never even done something simple like a cabin filter change, i love the long videos. I wish i had the confidence to do stuff, but i dont even own a car or a license anymore. So please keep the long content coming, its some of the best car content along with the UKs top car creator Mat Armstrong.
Whoever came up with the plastic clutch alignment tool that comes with the clutch kit was brilliant. Back in the day we used to have to cut the end of our broom handle off. We were all sweeping up with short brooms.
I will say that some of them don't work at all. I've had a few that flex just enough when torqueing down the pressure plate to where the input shaft wont go in.
Max does perfect on his editing...some film and show every last detail detail like threading a bolt from start to finish . I work on stuff but fixing a transmission is intimidating as heck to me
You're probably the one person that I would buy a vehicle from and not stress and worry that anything's wrong cuz I mean you do everything the right way for the right way to do it not very many people left like you man and your knowledge and know-how and confidence just to tear right in it and fix it right it is just amazing 💯🤙🤙🤙
YES. I would definitely attempt it. Many of us Do-it-yer’selfers” have projects like this where we are unsure of the process so, watch guys like you do it first to prepare ourselves for the proper steps, see what problems or challenges we may encounter, or even a parts list before starting. I even enjoy the “bloopers” at the end. Your knowledge base and fearlessness is impressive. Great job Alex!
Great video Alex!!! Not only did you do an amazing job, but you also helped me make the decision to go ahead and rebuild my transmission myself. I have a 99' Camaro Z28 with a Tremec T-56 that has been giving me issues for a while now. I purchased a master rebuild kit and all new synchro's as well as 2nd and 3rd gears. I would probably not have done this myself had I not seen your video. I am pleased to say that the transmission now shifts beautifully, and my Camaro is fun to drive again. I have had my car since I purchased it brand new back in 99' and It is my baby......... the sense of pride I feel knowing that I fixed it myself is truly incredible. Never would have happened had I not seen this video. Thanks so much Alex and please keep doing what you do because it truly makes a difference!!
My OCD tendencies really appreciate your methodical and highly organized way of doing this. Highly satisfying! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Dude. You really deserve so much credit. Your videos are the most descriptive and informative on RUclips. Step by step. The best angles. The ingenuity with just simply making stuff work. Right now I’d say in my opinion… but this is just factual. Best car channel on RUclips. You deserve every sub.
I did more or less the same thing years ago. Young family just getting by my wifes car needed repair so she could get to the babysitters and to work and there was no choise. I did the transmission, complete teardown and when it was back together I did some bodywork too. Probably couldn't do all the crawleing around anymore but I'm glad I did it then. Keep up the great work
This is my second video watching of yours and the first was when you bought the Camaro. I just want to say I love the way you go step by step, explaining what you're doing, and cutting out all the extra stuff that's not pertinent to the build which makes watching your video such a beautiful experience. I'm mechanically inclined and love diy builds and I say you're the best diy mechanic I have watched rebuilding a transmission. I'm going to continue watching your videos and I highly recommend any new viewers to subscribe. By the way...I'm a die hard Chevy fan. Keep up the good work man.
I'm a Mark and baker/cook since I was young. Starting when I was 6 years old with eggs and French toast and now for the family all my adult life. Both are baked in the same pan, or can be. Cupcakes are generally lighter with a cake like taste and texture. Muffins are generally more dense like a bread and not quite as sweet, some more savory like poppy seed. I love your content and great info, I'm also a car guy. I look forward to early Saturday before the honey do list... Keep it up Alex!
This channel and Chris Sullivan are my favorite automotive channels, hands down. Keep it up, Alex. Thank you for not selling out and for staying true to yourself.
I rebuilt a Miata trans. What a PITA. No clips, everything was pressed on. Had to buy 2 massive pullers. I've done a few more since then to make the pullers pay for themselves.
I bought a spare Miata trans for $50 so when mine goes, I don’t gotta worry about that 🤣 I figure if I have to choose between $50 for tools or $50 for a used trans…. Easy decision
@@jtfoog5220 You got extremely lucky, finding one for $50. I specialize in Miatas and have 2 storage containers full of parts. The going rate for a 5 speed is $500 to $700. 6 speeds are more.
@@aaronbritt2025 I know! I think people thought it was a scam or something, it had been up for a week. I simply messaged the guy and picked it up, from My basis testing it appears all gears are functional
Man you tought me a ton in this video about manual trans rebuilds. While there are a ton of parts, its really a bunch of gear packs, and the stuff that moves them around. You;ve greatly increased my understanding of a manual trans. Thank you!
Not only wouldn’t I attempt a DIY transmission rebuild, I question my ability to DIY transmission swap…but thoroughly enjoy watching and wishing I could. I am improving my skills with your help.
with a lift its much easier than you think. just need to use some strength to unmate and remove it sometimes when the bell housing gets stuck to the engine. but besides that its cake.
I can't imagine trying to take on a project like that as a DYI. Your talent and knowledge are impressive AF. How many of you wish you had a friend like him.
Yes as a certified ASE Diesel Mechanic I have worked on numerous manual transmission that are far more complex , With that in mind you did just fine for the most part 👍
When i was enlisted, my MOS was 3521 and 3522. The military taught me how to rebuild transmissions both auto and manual, geared hubs, rear ends and engines. Having a video or so manual for your beatbox helps a bunch. If you don't have a manual, just systematically take everything apart in order. You should be fine. Don't be afraid to try it. A man built it the first time, you can too. Start with a cheap, used one from the salvage yard, buy the correct tools and learn! I was gonna mention the brass shift bushing option, but i see Alex has it. I have a T56 Magnum in my 95 mustang with a 427w. In 6th gear, at 80 mph, the RPM is at 1700. Good job Alex, another victory💪🏆
Used to watch your videos in the morning right when you would upload them but my 2 kids need my full attention all day so I’m now watching at 11pm the same day. Watched all 1:12:21!!! 11pm on a Saturday in my 20s the night would just be getting started but in my mid 30s your videos are powering me through from hitting the sack early!! Keep up the quality videos! Used to own a 5th gen v6 Camaro 11 years ago!
I have not done anything this complex in my "do it yourself" car repair life, but fully intend to when I am able to get my first project car. Watching your videos is always a confidence booster to me as you make everything simple to understand and explain all the steps so well!
When I rebuilt my tr6060 I messed up and swapped the plastic guides. Had no idea they were different sizes lol. Had to tear it all apart. Also made the same puller with flat stock metal lol.
Absolutely id give this a go. I have barely any mechanical experience but love pulling things apart to fix them. Videos like this really make it easy to learn
What I love about this channel is the been there, done that, and came up with the same outcome, right down to the Haynes repair manual lack of information. Keep it up! I live trips down memory lane.
Such a win for Camaros getting the tremec in the base ss. Still a ton of value in the 5th gen’s . I’m a huge Mustang fan but there’s no denying these are incredible sport cars.
also get the better LS3 engine in the manual vs the L99 in the auto. and in some ways the LSA in the ZL1 is better than the LT4 in the 6th gen ZL1. and of course the rare z28 with the LS7 is super badass too. 5th gens are underrated and will rise in price soon
In 1972 I took on a 1964 Triumph TR4 Transmission - had no idea what was doing but knew the syncro's were bad (grinding). That's when there were still some Triumph dealers around with parts departments. I replaced the 1st gear syncro and first gear. Went back together with no issues. Ah, the ignorance of youth! Would I do it today? Sure why not, after all I did it once. And no, I am not a mechanic; just a cheap old guy.
I took apart my t56 in my 94 z28 in high school having zero knowledge of the internals of manual transmissions. Luckily mine just needed 1 bearing and the shift for pads on 2 of the shift forks replaced. I fixed them and had no more bearing noise or grinding in 3rd. Was for sure a trial and error process though. I wish I would have had a video like this back in the day to use as reference!! Keep up the good work!!
Take two or three large hose clamps connect them together around the outside of the jaws of your puller and tighten them. This will help to keep your puller from slipping off so much. Good luck.
37:07 Absolute yes. My ‘94 Hiace has a transmission that seems tired. I have been studying up in hopes to do the same as you. This is your best video yet!
Very interesting video once again, I love all the technical details, I feel like this channel truly adds to my knowledge about cars. Those shift at the end with the LS engine noise are just *chef kiss*.
Even if I never disassemble a Transmission. The knowledge gained through watching this very detailed video is really appreciated. The "how-to" mystery of transmission assembly is no more! Thank you Alex!!
For making aluminum bright and clean again.There is a product called Albright. Do not get it on your skin. But it is absolute the best product for Aluminum.
At 31:20, the difference is 0.115(5) vs 0.110(5), so not a 45 thousandths difference as mentioned, but a 5 (and a half) thousandths of an inch difference. Common mistake when reading digital calipers which display the 4th decimal (ten thousandths) place. It's all good though Chief :)
Thank you for the detailed long form repairs. You tackling these more "intimidating" jobs with ease gives me more confidence to work outside my comfort zone. Heck I am about to tear apart a Caprice because i thought yours was so cool. Thanks Alex and great edits Max!
Anyone can take a transmission apart, it takes a master genius to put one back together. Great job as always. It was probably the gap on the bearing (the one incorrectly set using feeler gauges) that caused the 1st to 2nd synchromesh not to engage properly. Good job you fixed it otherwise you would have been back to where you started.
@jamesemcclure Don't think so. Synchros were burnt, that's it. The fact that all the clips fit into the grooves on original build means the original bearing position was OK. If synchro was dragging as originally built it would burn up very quickly. Also, you normally have some movement of synchronizer sleeve before pressure builds on blocker ring. In the case of multi cone synchronization, you can usually feel the play thru the shifter, provided it is not a cable shift mechanism. I would be curious to look at the shaft to see if there is a shoulder the bearing should hit to position it on the shaft ... otherwise how do you know the press depth is correct? Also, the service manual might have end play specs for shafts when are installed, I didn't see any measurements during Alex's procedure.
@@jimw6991 Synchros don't burn without a reason. Play in this area where there shouldn't be would result in a burn like this occuring. The gap distance is roughly a match for the erosion on the heads of the teeth. Alex said there was no mention of this gap in the assembly instructions of the shaft. The fact it prevented assembly proves it shouldn't be there. Not sure how much more proof you would need that having it there resulted in the failure of the transmission.
Your enthusiasm is admirable! I would actually do a gearbox rebuild myself to be honest. I've had one apart in the past and yes there is a lot to them but if you're methodical it can be done.
Not sure why but I watch it all the way. I'll never want to do any of the things you're doing but everything goes at a great pace with like the perfect amount of info. I tried skipping through some but felt like I missed too much so I backed up again. Thanks for making great videos.
So back in "the" I rebuilt a borg warner transmission. They had needle bearings that were a royal pain because you had to place them in the race individually. I see yours are all self contained. Consider yourself lucky.
I have a ‘15 SS 1LE. The owners manual says to NEVER shift 1st to 2nd while spinning tires. I’m bad at following directions, so I did it once. All good. Did it again. 2nd sounded EXACTLY like this one. Great video. Great info. Thanks!
Alex. I have been following you since your Lexus IS250 (The ine you fix the fender with a VW quarter panel) video you gift to that guy. I do really enjoy your long videos. It's better that any other TV show! Much love and respect!
Damn it you bastard! I was typing that out and then saw your comment lmaooo. If I had a nickel for every time I heard that.... I would have no nickels 😮💨🙁
Alex, you are the best mechanic I've ever seen!! You do such a great job explaining each step and how things work.....all week I look forward to watching your Saturday uploads!
I rebuilt my t56 in my 1994 firebird about a year ago today, still does great, i did basically everything you did except brass fork pads for mine and a steel shift fork for 3-4 as my car was grinding 3rd, it was really easy i enjoyed it too
I’m not over here rebuilding transmissions, but I was motivated enough to assemble a gas grill that’s been sitting in my garage for a while. Watched the vid whilst toiling away. Nice.
Great video, I have a 5th gen with the same problem. I ended up changing the transmission out several years ago. I might have attempted the rebuild after seeing this video.
I'd love to take this kind of project on because nothing feels better than installing it and it actually works! I once had to replace a oil pump in a 5.3 Chevy that basically requires you to take it completely apart and when I was done and started that truck and seen the oil pressure go to 80 it was amazing.
I'd consider myself to be relatively mechanical (say 7 out of 10), but would never embark on a manual (nor auto for that matter) transmission rebuild. Just watching that thing come apart gave me anxiety. Huge amount of respect for the men and women who do this for a living. Another great video Alex, always keeping it real world for us viewers 👊👊👊
I've done this kind of work before, but it's been a long time since I've torn down a trans. Loved watching you do this. Great job you did as well. That's a great car you picked up. I'm jealous. 😂
The fact that an experienced mechanic says, "Thank God, it wasn't something wrong with the transmission rebuild", is why most DIYers don't want to try this. But, I appreciate the video, makes me almost consider attempting such a thing. Video recording and digital picture taking, make it more possible for those without photographic memories!
If I had to rebuild one of these transmissions I would definitely do it confidently with your video. I've already used one of your videos in the past to put new rod and main bearings in my 6.2l gmc yukon (you put new bearings in your ls swapped Porsche) thanks to your video I did that confidently and very successfully now have 60psi oil pressure on cold start and around 35-40psi after it warms up so thank you!
Dine it a few times!! 93 F150 with a 5 speed in it. Rebuilt it once and when it took manual transmission in college, we rebuilt at least 3 different types of manuals a week. From T5 all the way past the NV5600s!!
Great video! My buddy borrowed his brother’s 2010 SS 6.2 Camaro 6 spd for this weekend. We were heading to airway heights to go watch some street outlaws no prep drag racing and why not go in a muscle car! Long story short car got great mpg (23) even getting on it here and there. 75-80mph 2k or under rpm’s! Wow! Not a Camaro guy but it was fun!
If this thing ever makes it to your sale list I call first dibs!!! I wanted one all the way back when I was in the Navy and wanted an American bow tie after I had to let my 96 Manual Rs. Can’t wait to see where you take it!! Keep up the great work and I’ll be watching with a pop well into the future!! -Randy
Yes dude I would 100% give it a go if I had a reference video like yours. I no a car gearbox is way more complicated but I took a Honda 250 2 stroke gearbox apart and replaced a gear and it still works today. Keep it coming dude.
Yes I did try this. It was on an e46 BMW. Had trouble finding a diagram but when I found the parts that needed to be replaced in found I could buy a used with low miles for half of the parts cost so I went ahead and went that direction. Still fun to pull it all apart.
I did a partial rebuild on my manual T45 out of my 97 Mustang GT using a video as a reference. Worked out really well and it stopped grinding going to 5th.
Please don’t stop doing what you do and how you do it.! We understand it’s not as easy as it gets done.! Love your positivity!! I absolutely love and appreciate you! Also anticipating your next video!! Thank you!!
I can't wait for the next Camaro video. You and Max create cool videos always entertainment while clips and bolts fly away, your reactions are priceless.

I rebuilt my 4L60e in my kitchen. And in high school, we rebuilt my buddy’s 1986 mustang’s Tremec T5 in his driveway and garage. Anyone that says outright that this is something they’d never “DIY” has never been broke enough to worry about it. When you have no choice, diy is all you got.
You wanna buy me some tools cuz I'm broke
Growing up poor sure teaches you some valuable skills. I'll build my truck, take it and build my house, then cook myself dinner afterwards 😂
Rebuild a old b2200 5 speed…luckily mazda kept all the same transmissions on their rwd vehicles in the 80s and 90s so watching a few video on RUclips was all I needed to get it done.
Kitchen, huh? Have you always been single, or did you become ‘single’ AFTER that rebuild? 😬
Yes. I did too. And of course automatic trans teardown and rebuild in a hotel room bathroom too😁

Haha, it is a lot.
Yeah, we'd need a gigantic counter and years more training. I have done repairs based on your teachings, but no Alex, just no....
Especially after you had to redo it. 😂
the main problems are tools and a place to do all this for several days since we are not mechanics ;/ or else would try
Peter
@@LegitStreetCars It may be a lot, but I would definitely do a trans rebuild if I had the money, tools, parts and space. Also, if you think about it, those plastik teeth with the ball bearing center the shifter ring and make smooth shifts possible. Otherwise the ring could become even slightly crooked and really mess up the gearteeth.
The plastic shifty thingamabobbers are called Keys.
And yes, I've done a few Tremec 6sp rebuilds diy just like here. Tremec publishes the complete rebuild manual for free.
Imagine that not like stupid German cars that won’t release tech specs for diy repairs
How much more could it cost to make those out of a softer metal material that would last indefinitely, versus plastic/nylon/ect that will eventually fail? As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
@Disneymkvii Are they always plastic? I designed transmissions years ago, never seen these made of plastic until this.
I don't understand how you literally pull any car apart and know how to fix it. I'm in awe and love your videos. Keep it going!
Great video as always. The detail is everything, it’s what people want to see. This is by far the best and consistently entertaining auto rebuild/modification content on YT.
Watching from Ghana, West Africa and learning a lot at 75 years old.
Ghana is europes car recycling facility as I learned recently.....
Cheers! Spent some time in Nalerigu about 20 years ago.
I've been working on cars for close to 35 years. I would not hesitate to do this kind of repair myself. A comprehensive video like this definitely helps.
Many moons ago the 4-speed manual in my BMW 2002 dropped all gears. Select any gear and no drive at the output. Upon disassembly it turned out that the cage of the secondary shaft bearing had broken, allowing the secondary shaft to completely disengage from the input. My dad rummaged around in his store room and found the precise bearing, a $3.00 part! I was probably 20 back then and was doing a lot of mechanical work on engines and motorcycles. But this was my first surgery on a car transmission, together with my dad we opened and re-assembled the trans in about 4 hours taking it slow. Worked perfectly fine after that.
Fast forward 30 years, this gave me the courage to dis-assemble my 2003 X5 automatic transmission in 2010, one O-ring on one of the clutches was bad but I just replaced all the seals and clutch discs along with a few bearings. The culprit was the torque converter which puked a bunch of aluminum shavings into the trans. Cleaned everything up and I still own that X5 about 65k miles later. Very satisfying job but like Alex said, you have to be methodical about keeping everything together when disassembling.
Soooo just to clarify some important details that are foggy for those that wanna know exactly how this works. The "plastic thingies" are actually "synchro preloaders" theres a groove inside the shift collar that the spring loaded ball in the "plastic thingies" snap into. When you begin a shift, the "plastic thingies" push the synchro first. This causes the synchro to rotate by half a tooth so that it is in the way of the shift collar. When the shift collar hits the teeth on the synchro, it pushes the synchro into the gear you are selecting. Half the synchro is keyed into the shift hub that the shift collar is riding on. The other half of the synchro is a friction cone that drags on the gear you are selecting. This causes the gear to speed up or slow down to match speed with the output shaft. Once the speed is matched, the torque on the synchro drops nearly to zero. So now the taper on the beginning of the tooth on the collar pushes the synchro out of the way and allows the collar to engage into the selected gear. They are never perfectly aligned so the point on the nose of the tooth that the collar engages with assists with aligning the teeth. Then boom, shift complete..
So those "plastic thingies" are a critical component to prepping the synchro to do its job. Without them, you'd likely grind more times than not.
thank you gadget... nice explanation of Alex's "Plastic Thingies". Actually, was curious enough to try to google what they were and name and failed to find them...again thanks
Yes I would rebuild my transmissions, I already rebuilt my automatic transmission 6HP-21 on my BMW 335I at home in my small garage, I replaced the clutch packs, and after putting everything together was shifting the gears so smoothly and no more vibration on acceleration, thanks Alex and keep up with what are you doing, you are a inspiration for us
Im not a mechanic, but a few years ago I successfully rebuilt my 1966 T-10 four speed. Saved some money, knew it was done correctly, and had the satisfaction of knowing I did it myself. Also learned alot along the way. This was a great video, please keep them coming!
"Lost a clip, found it" the magic of video editing.. We all know Alex spent 2 hrs on the floor screaming bloody murder trying to find that clip. Only to see it was in his shoe laces. 😅
😅😅😅
🤣 Yep been there before
I lost a bolt for the plastic underpan under the engine last weekend changing an O2 sensor on a W212. Looked for half an hour. Was sure it had to be on the ground since the car was just on jack stands 6" above the ground. Was not on the ground. Stuck to the magnetic base of a portable LED work light. Couple months ago lost another bolt on another job. Kids came over. Offered one $10 just for shits and giggles to find it. He said "you mean that one?" within 15s. Bolt had fallen and traveled a postal code away to the other side of the driveway.
Every job includes at least an hour cursing in your garage with a missing bolt or 10mm socket.
That's why they are called oh Jesus clips you drop it and all you can say is oh Jesus and sometimes he will let you find it again!
37:06 YES!! Alex, we all super appreciate you being very thorough and attentive!! I have never done anything nearly as in-depth to a car, but I really love to see the inner workings and listing to how things work!
As a man who has never even done something simple like a cabin filter change, i love the long videos. I wish i had the confidence to do stuff, but i dont even own a car or a license anymore. So please keep the long content coming, its some of the best car content along with the UKs top car creator Mat Armstrong.
Whoever came up with the plastic clutch alignment tool that comes with the clutch kit was brilliant. Back in the day we used to have to cut the end of our broom handle off. We were all sweeping up with short brooms.
I remember that 😂😂😂
I've always used a deep well socket. Seems to work better than those plastic things.
1997 my brother in-law made me one out of wood on a lathe still works to this day!@
I will say that some of them don't work at all. I've had a few that flex just enough when torqueing down the pressure plate to where the input shaft wont go in.
Max does perfect on his editing...some film and show every last detail detail like threading a bolt from start to finish . I work on stuff but fixing a transmission is intimidating as heck to me
You're probably the one person that I would buy a vehicle from and not stress and worry that anything's wrong cuz I mean you do everything the right way for the right way to do it not very many people left like you man and your knowledge and know-how and confidence just to tear right in it and fix it right it is just amazing 💯🤙🤙🤙
And its time he started a training school-I will be the first to enroll
YES. I would definitely attempt it. Many of us Do-it-yer’selfers” have projects like this where we are unsure of the process so, watch guys like you do it first to prepare ourselves for the proper steps, see what problems or challenges we may encounter, or even a parts list before starting. I even enjoy the “bloopers” at the end. Your knowledge base and fearlessness is impressive. Great job Alex!
Great video Alex!!! Not only did you do an amazing job, but you also helped me make the decision to go ahead and rebuild my transmission myself. I have a 99' Camaro Z28 with a Tremec T-56 that has been giving me issues for a while now. I purchased a master rebuild kit and all new synchro's as well as 2nd and 3rd gears. I would probably not have done this myself had I not seen your video. I am pleased to say that the transmission now shifts beautifully, and my Camaro is fun to drive again. I have had my car since I purchased it brand new back in 99' and It is my baby......... the sense of pride I feel knowing that I fixed it myself is truly incredible. Never would have happened had I not seen this video. Thanks so much Alex and please keep doing what you do because it truly makes a difference!!
My OCD tendencies really appreciate your methodical and highly organized way of doing this. Highly satisfying! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Dude. You really deserve so much credit. Your videos are the most descriptive and informative on RUclips. Step by step. The best angles. The ingenuity with just simply making stuff work. Right now I’d say in my opinion… but this is just factual. Best car channel on RUclips. You deserve every sub.
Alex put a velcro strap around the three jaw puller and your problem will be over!
I use a couple rubber bands on them
Worm clamp works well too
Great idea
Or a zip tie
I did more or less the same thing years ago. Young family just getting by my wifes car needed repair so she could get to the babysitters and to work and there was no choise. I did the transmission, complete teardown and when it was back together I did some bodywork too. Probably couldn't do all the crawleing around anymore but I'm glad I did it then. Keep up the great work
This is my second video watching of yours and the first was when you bought the Camaro. I just want to say I love the way you go step by step, explaining what you're doing, and cutting out all the extra stuff that's not pertinent to the build which makes watching your video such a beautiful experience. I'm mechanically inclined and love diy builds and I say you're the best diy mechanic I have watched rebuilding a transmission. I'm going to continue watching your videos and I highly recommend any new viewers to subscribe. By the way...I'm a die hard Chevy fan. Keep up the good work man.
Thanks so much Shuan! Glad you found the channel!
I'm a Mark and baker/cook since I was young. Starting when I was 6 years old with eggs and French toast and now for the family all my adult life. Both are baked in the same pan, or can be. Cupcakes are generally lighter with a cake like taste and texture. Muffins are generally more dense like a bread and not quite as sweet, some more savory like poppy seed.
I love your content and great info, I'm also a car guy. I look forward to early Saturday before the honey do list... Keep it up Alex!
This channel and Chris Sullivan are my favorite automotive channels, hands down. Keep it up, Alex. Thank you for not selling out and for staying true to yourself.
Yup. Questionable Garage and I Do Cars are good channels, too.
I rebuilt a Miata trans. What a PITA. No clips, everything was pressed on. Had to buy 2 massive pullers. I've done a few more since then to make the pullers pay for themselves.
I bought a spare Miata trans for $50 so when mine goes, I don’t gotta worry about that 🤣 I figure if I have to choose between $50 for tools or $50 for a used trans…. Easy decision
@@jtfoog5220 You got extremely lucky, finding one for $50. I specialize in Miatas and have 2 storage containers full of parts. The going rate for a 5 speed is $500 to $700. 6 speeds are more.
@@aaronbritt2025 I know! I think people thought it was a scam or something, it had been up for a week. I simply messaged the guy and picked it up, from
My basis testing it appears all gears are functional
Man you tought me a ton in this video about manual trans rebuilds. While there are a ton of parts, its really a bunch of gear packs, and the stuff that moves them around. You;ve greatly increased my understanding of a manual trans. Thank you!
Not only wouldn’t I attempt a DIY transmission rebuild, I question my ability to DIY transmission swap…but thoroughly enjoy watching and wishing I could. I am improving my skills with your help.
Transmissions arent hard to swap in and out with the proper spacing. Its doing it on jackstands where its difficult
with a lift its much easier than you think. just need to use some strength to unmate and remove it sometimes when the bell housing gets stuck to the engine. but besides that its cake.
I can't imagine trying to take on a project like that as a DYI. Your talent and knowledge are impressive AF. How many of you wish you had a friend like him.
what the hell is a DYI?

@@nealedmondson3191 Suppposed to be DIY Do It Yourself it means..
Yes as a certified ASE Diesel Mechanic I have worked on numerous manual transmission that are far more complex , With that in mind you did just fine for the most part 👍
Well thanks!
When i was enlisted, my MOS was 3521 and 3522. The military taught me how to rebuild transmissions both auto and manual, geared hubs, rear ends and engines. Having a video or so manual for your beatbox helps a bunch. If you don't have a manual, just systematically take everything apart in order. You should be fine. Don't be afraid to try it. A man built it the first time, you can too. Start with a cheap, used one from the salvage yard, buy the correct tools and learn! I was gonna mention the brass shift bushing option, but i see Alex has it. I have a T56 Magnum in my 95 mustang with a 427w. In 6th gear, at 80 mph, the RPM is at 1700. Good job Alex, another victory💪🏆
Used to watch your videos in the morning right when you would upload them but my 2 kids need my full attention all day so I’m now watching at 11pm the same day. Watched all 1:12:21!!! 11pm on a Saturday in my 20s the night would just be getting started but in my mid 30s your videos are powering me through from hitting the sack early!! Keep up the quality videos! Used to own a 5th gen v6 Camaro 11 years ago!
I have not done anything this complex in my "do it yourself" car repair life, but fully intend to when I am able to get my first project car. Watching your videos is always a confidence booster to me as you make everything simple to understand and explain all the steps so well!
I'm simple. If I can buy the parts, I'll dig into it. Nice job tackling the trans.
Love the longer videos. Keep up the hard work brother
When I rebuilt my tr6060 I messed up and swapped the plastic guides. Had no idea they were different sizes lol. Had to tear it all apart. Also made the same puller with flat stock metal lol.
Absolutely id give this a go. I have barely any mechanical experience but love pulling things apart to fix them. Videos like this really make it easy to learn
What I love about this channel is the been there, done that, and came up with the same outcome, right down to the Haynes repair manual lack of information. Keep it up! I live trips down memory lane.
I can always depend on Alex for my Saturday morning fix. Get it? 😆
How do hou have 100+ comments on tbis channel
Because I watch it religiously. I'm a retired auto technician so I can relate to everything Alex does.
Such a win for Camaros getting the tremec in the base ss. Still a ton of value in the 5th gen’s . I’m a huge Mustang fan but there’s no denying these are incredible sport cars.
4th gen’s had tremec as well. T56 vs TR6060
also get the better LS3 engine in the manual vs the L99 in the auto. and in some ways the LSA in the ZL1 is better than the LT4 in the 6th gen ZL1. and of course the rare z28 with the LS7 is super badass too. 5th gens are underrated and will rise in price soon
In 1972 I took on a 1964 Triumph TR4 Transmission - had no idea what was doing but knew the syncro's were bad (grinding). That's when there were still some Triumph dealers around with parts departments. I replaced the 1st gear syncro and first gear. Went back together with no issues. Ah, the ignorance of youth! Would I do it today? Sure why not, after all I did it once. And no, I am not a mechanic; just a cheap old guy.
I think you have to be some level of mechanic to own a Triumph 😂 give yourself some credit
I just bought a 2010 Camaro SS this year and can’t wait to see how you modify yours! Love your work, keepn’ it legit!
I took apart my t56 in my 94 z28 in high school having zero knowledge of the internals of manual transmissions. Luckily mine just needed 1 bearing and the shift for pads on 2 of the shift forks replaced. I fixed them and had no more bearing noise or grinding in 3rd. Was for sure a trial and error process though. I wish I would have had a video like this back in the day to use as reference!! Keep up the good work!!
Take two or three large hose clamps connect them together around the outside of the jaws of your puller and tighten them. This will help to keep your puller from slipping off so much. Good luck.
Released this one early this week. Much appreciation for this. 💯👍
I’d never rebuild a transmission, but seeing everything slide together with satisfying clicks is nice to watch.
I think the trick is to have a long stretch of line and line up the parts as you remove them.
37:07 Absolute yes. My ‘94 Hiace has a transmission that seems tired. I have been studying up in hopes to do the same as you. This is your best video yet!
Very interesting video once again, I love all the technical details, I feel like this channel truly adds to my knowledge about cars. Those shift at the end with the LS engine noise are just *chef kiss*.
What are some good fuel economy mods for this car?
lol...
Fitting narrower wheels always helps!
Heads, cams, and nitrous will surely change the fuel economy!
install turbo kit or supercharger kit and make it a hellcat killer
Just tune it to have a slightly slower throttle response. This works with just about any car that does drive by wire.
Camaro SS or Mustang GT of the same era. What would you rather have?
Camaro!!!
Mustang!
Camaro, no brainer.

This'll get me through night shift!
Even if I never disassemble a Transmission. The knowledge gained through watching this very detailed video is really appreciated. The "how-to" mystery of transmission assembly is no more! Thank you Alex!!
Thanks for the long and thorough videos, it shows a lot of commitment and connects true enthusiasts!
For making aluminum bright and clean again.There is a product called Albright. Do not get it on your skin. But it is absolute the best product for Aluminum.
@@levisilva3192 Mate yeah it's probly got some caustic in it, which cleans ali so well that it will start eating it away if you leave it on too long!
@@nevillegoddard4966 yes it will. It's a spray on and rents off immediately. But my goodness it makes Aluminum beautiful.
I hit the thumbs up before I even watch because I know it’s gonna be a good video.
Thanks Robert!
At 31:20, the difference is 0.115(5) vs 0.110(5), so not a 45 thousandths difference as mentioned, but a 5 (and a half) thousandths of an inch difference. Common mistake when reading digital calipers which display the 4th decimal (ten thousandths) place. It's all good though Chief :)
Haha I caught the same thing right away. I'd like to see him use mechanical calipers 😅
Came to the comments for this. It's only a 5 thousandths difference though, no half. Cheers!
Thank you for the detailed long form repairs. You tackling these more "intimidating" jobs with ease gives me more confidence to work outside my comfort zone. Heck I am about to tear apart a Caprice because i thought yours was so cool. Thanks Alex and great edits Max!
I was a mechanic for 15 years and any noise after a lengthy repair is heart stopping.
Anyone can take a transmission apart, it takes a master genius to put one back together. Great job as always.
It was probably the gap on the bearing (the one incorrectly set using feeler gauges) that caused the 1st to 2nd synchromesh not to engage properly. Good job you fixed it otherwise you would have been back to where you started.
That’s not true. I don’t have the 400 tool removal or other tools to make one. Easier said than done.
@jamesemcclure Don't think so. Synchros were burnt, that's it. The fact that all the clips fit into the grooves on original build means the original bearing position was OK. If synchro was dragging as originally built it would burn up very quickly. Also, you normally have some movement of synchronizer sleeve before pressure builds on blocker ring. In the case of multi cone synchronization, you can usually feel the play thru the shifter, provided it is not a cable shift mechanism.
I would be curious to look at the shaft to see if there is a shoulder the bearing should hit to position it on the shaft ... otherwise how do you know the press depth is correct? Also, the service manual might have end play specs for shafts when are installed, I didn't see any measurements during Alex's procedure.
@@jimw6991 Synchros don't burn without a reason. Play in this area where there shouldn't be would result in a burn like this occuring. The gap distance is roughly a match for the erosion on the heads of the teeth. Alex said there was no mention of this gap in the assembly instructions of the shaft. The fact it prevented assembly proves it shouldn't be there. Not sure how much more proof you would need that having it there resulted in the failure of the transmission.
i rebuild a Honda automatic tranny in my basement out of a Acura TL🤣
it was very complex but i took it one step at a time and lots of pics and vids
I did the same type of trans, of the Odyssey variety. With a shift kit and external cooler and upgraded oringed valve body cups.
Poor Alex - Can't carry a tune in a Bucket.
Good thing he's a Hell of a Mechanic with the personality of a game show host.
Your enthusiasm is admirable! I would actually do a gearbox rebuild myself to be honest. I've had one apart in the past and yes there is a lot to them but if you're methodical it can be done.
Not sure why but I watch it all the way. I'll never want to do any of the things you're doing but everything goes at a great pace with like the perfect amount of info.
I tried skipping through some but felt like I missed too much so I backed up again. Thanks for making great videos.
My boy Alex representing the Midwest 💪😎
Happy LSCday y’all
So back in "the" I rebuilt a borg warner transmission. They had needle bearings that were a royal pain because you had to place them in the race individually. I see yours are all self contained. Consider yourself lucky.
Seeing the updates in tr6060 is cool, still similar enough to follow.
I have a ‘15 SS 1LE. The owners manual says to NEVER shift 1st to 2nd while spinning tires. I’m bad at following directions, so I did it once. All good. Did it again. 2nd sounded EXACTLY like this one. Great video. Great info. Thanks!
Alex. I have been following you since your Lexus IS250 (The ine you fix the fender with a VW quarter panel) video you gift to that guy.
I do really enjoy your long videos. It's better that any other TV show!
Much love and respect!

I love this type of content! I just got a 2006 Corvette Z06 with a T56 and this gives me the confidence to know that I could do this myself
Alex, I would totally do this. I have the same trans and love watching all your your videos. You’re very knowledgeable.
Alex, you are the best mechanic I've ever seen!! You do such a great job explaining each step and how things work.....all week I look forward to watching your Saturday uploads!
Wow, thanks!
Appreciate you taking the time to show us the details. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.
I rebuilt my t56 in my 1994 firebird about a year ago today, still does great, i did basically everything you did except brass fork pads for mine and a steel shift fork for 3-4 as my car was grinding 3rd, it was really easy i enjoyed it too
I’m not over here rebuilding transmissions, but I was motivated enough to assemble a gas grill that’s been sitting in my garage for a while. Watched the vid whilst toiling away. Nice.
Great video, I have a 5th gen with the same problem. I ended up changing the transmission out several years ago. I might have attempted the rebuild after seeing this video.
I'd love to take this kind of project on because nothing feels better than installing it and it actually works! I once had to replace a oil pump in a 5.3 Chevy that basically requires you to take it completely apart and when I was done and started that truck and seen the oil pressure go to 80 it was amazing.
I'd consider myself to be relatively mechanical (say 7 out of 10), but would never embark on a manual (nor auto for that matter) transmission rebuild. Just watching that thing come apart gave me anxiety. Huge amount of respect for the men and women who do this for a living.
Another great video Alex, always keeping it real world for us viewers 👊👊👊
To answer your question has anyone else done this well, I have done automatic transmissions, but not a manual trans. Keep it up, you're doing great!
Watching your videos motivates me to work on my car….funds prevent me…but the knowledge u give in ya videos helps a lot thanks
I've done this kind of work before, but it's been a long time since I've torn down a trans. Loved watching you do this. Great job you did as well.
That's a great car you picked up. I'm jealous. 😂
The fact that an experienced mechanic says, "Thank God, it wasn't something wrong with the transmission rebuild", is why most DIYers don't want to try this. But, I appreciate the video, makes me almost consider attempting such a thing. Video recording and digital picture taking, make it more possible for those without photographic memories!
If I had to rebuild one of these transmissions I would definitely do it confidently with your video. I've already used one of your videos in the past to put new rod and main bearings in my 6.2l gmc yukon (you put new bearings in your ls swapped Porsche) thanks to your video I did that confidently and very successfully now have 60psi oil pressure on cold start and around 35-40psi after it warms up so thank you!
i would never even think of trying to do something like this but you make it look so easy i'd give it a try now
Dine it a few times!! 93 F150 with a 5 speed in it. Rebuilt it once and when it took manual transmission in college, we rebuilt at least 3 different types of manuals a week. From T5 all the way past the NV5600s!!
Great video! My buddy borrowed his brother’s 2010 SS 6.2 Camaro 6 spd for this weekend. We were heading to airway heights to go watch some street outlaws no prep drag racing and why not go in a muscle car! Long story short car got great mpg (23) even getting on it here and there. 75-80mph 2k or under rpm’s! Wow! Not a Camaro guy but it was fun!
If this thing ever makes it to your sale list I call first dibs!!! I wanted one all the way back when I was in the Navy and wanted an American bow tie after I had to let my 96 Manual Rs. Can’t wait to see where you take it!! Keep up the great work and I’ll be watching with a pop well into the future!!

Yes dude I would 100% give it a go if I had a reference video like yours. I no a car gearbox is way more complicated but I took a Honda 250 2 stroke gearbox apart and replaced a gear and it still works today. Keep it coming dude.
Yes I did try this. It was on an e46 BMW. Had trouble finding a diagram but when I found the parts that needed to be replaced in found I could buy a used with low miles for half of the parts cost so I went ahead and went that direction. Still fun to pull it all apart.
I did a partial rebuild on my manual T45 out of my 97 Mustang GT using a video as a reference. Worked out really well and it stopped grinding going to 5th.
Please don’t stop doing what you do and how you do it.! We understand it’s not as easy as it gets done.! Love your positivity!! I absolutely love and appreciate you! Also anticipating your next video!! Thank you!!
I can't wait for the next Camaro video. You and Max create cool videos always entertainment while clips and bolts fly away, your reactions are priceless.
