Great videos dude, I did my 904 like 5 years ago before you made this video, but it still works. I’m gonna do a 727 for when I throw a big block in there. Never knew how to bench test it and what ports to use. Cheers guy
Brings back great memories. I had the 904 in my 72 Duster. One of the first trans I took apart back then. No you tube etc. Only the books and brain matter
I’m actually in the process of rebuilding a 5.9 for my Duster and your videos are very helpful. I haven’t messed with transmissions much but you make it look somewhat easy. Thanks for the video.
If you're capable of rebuilding an engine, you can do a transmission. I actually think a transmission is a bit easier. Just take your time and be deliberate about checking and measuring every piece, which you have to do on an engine as well.
So, I have two spare 727's that I bought extremely cheap and would love to go through one before installing with another 360 I'm going to put in a 1989 W150. Did you list a rebuild kit that you used in any of the videos in this series? Also, in the powerwagon you mentioned, will you be rebuilding transfer case by chance? Or maybe you have and I just haven't gotten to that vid yet. GREAT FREAKING SERIES MAN!!! I may screw it up, but it won't be from any of your instructions.
I didn't buy a kit, I got individual parts from Cobra Transmission. I do plan on rebuilding the NP205 - though I'd like to find a spare and rebuild it while the truck is still drivable.
Hey man, I know I'm asking a lot of questions. But I'm almost done. Hopefully. Did u purposely NOT lube the roller bearing on the tail-shaft? thanks bro.
Been following your channel for a while. Having a problem rebuild my transmission 72 7 I've lost reverse The valve body attaches frount where under pump fuild the transmission. I have a stripped out bolt. Can that cause the problem?
Hi mate, which master rebuild kit did you go with, and did you end up installing the Transgo shift kit (was it no.2 or no.3??). Great job by the way, love the video and thanks for documenting it all!
You obviously have more experience with mopar transmissions than I do. Problem; I rebuilt my transmission, along the same lines as you did an A 727 that sits behind a 400 big block in a 71 plymouth duster. I have NO passing or kickdown gear. I can hand shift and 1st through 3rd are there with no slippage. I adjusted the throttle with the kickdown lever so when carb is wide open trans lever is fully depressed back. NO passing gear or kickdown. Also trans shifts through gears really fast, shifts from first to third by 35 mph. I have pulled the tail shaft and checked and cleaned the govenor, also dropped the transmission pan and pulled the valve body taking it completely apart noting where the ball bearings go. Still the same... One questio, this valve body is out of a RV transmission, would that matter? HELP!!!
The behavior sounds like misadjusted kickdown to me, but you say you've checked that so my next guess (and it's just a guess) is low pressure for some reason. Maybe a bad/pinched/backward seal or something? Different valve bodies will have different shift characteristics, like exactly when and how hard the shifts are, but none should have if shifting all the way to 3rd that soon.
Interesting how you mentioned you were using parts from a B&M Transkit. The Transkit comes with their shift kit yet I did not see any mods to the rear servo, accumulator (rod) or the cupped orifice that goes into the direct clutch passage in the case. Were you going to save those parts for the other TF build you were going to do?
You just gave me confidence on rebuilding my own junk

Good video and all the important parts are shared, Thank you
Thanks for these videos. I’m going to use them to rebuild my trans!
Very nice basic build on this. 727's are a fantastic transmission!

Starting on a 46re rebuild next week. Great vid!
Thank you,. You really do make it look easy. I'm going to try it on my 727.
How did it go, going to try rebuilding mine
Thank you for showing us how to do this!
Love the 727 . A strong transmission and pretty simple compared to others. Learned there are some trucks to make them stronger.
Amigo que buen video, que buena explicacion, usted es todo un profecional, muchas gracias y un gran abrazo desde Venezuela.
Video bien detallado y bien especificado 👍
Great series. Thanks for posting.
Excellent, Excellent series. Well done !🍻
Great video. 😊

When you air checked at -9:00 you say you’ll hear thud and see the piston move. I hear a thud that sounds right but nothing moved??
I see that you didnt show an end play measurement. Is that something to not be overly concerned with?
Excelente video,lastima que no es en español, felicidades
Thank you , I'm now unstuck !!!

It won't hurt to lube it, but it doesn't spin until you're in gear, so the pump will have lubricated it before you start driving it.
@@YoshimoshiGarage Thanks brother man.

I actually put the kit together piecemeal from Cobra Transmission. I did put in the Transgo kit, but my computer crapped out and I lost the footage.

You forgot to tighten the sprag set screw.
Did you replace the front servo rings?
Yes.
@YoshimoshiGarage Ended up ordering a billet servo from CRT. But I've been following your restorations/assembly videos. Loving them! 🤘🏼
What rebuild kit do you recommend,thanks
I bought my parts from Cobra Transmission Parts
It is called a parking Pawl not a parking sprag

Yes, I decided to save the kit parts for another build
Why run a 904 valve body in a 727
The separator plate from the 727 was super worn and I had a spare 904
@@YoshimoshiGarage did it work ok after the vb swap cheers brett
@@brettpowter6010 It did. Other than the one hole, they're basically the same
I'm looking forward to seeing the boy's transmission damage.
It's probably going to be soon simply because it's really in the way right now.
*** Always change out the shift shaft seal ****
Definitely good advice. I changed it, and I think I showed it somewhere in the series.
@@YoshimoshiGarage Great vids. I have a 67 Coronet, and many over the years, and the 727's have always been good to me.
