Great video, i would recommend doing this shift kit while its down tho.. first time i pulled mine only problem was a bad overdrive sprag, replaced it and the torque converter.. ran perfect exactly one year then wouldnt move one morning.. the flow control valve in the pump was stuck open.. if i would have bought the shift kit the first time, it would have came with the new updated flow control valve and I wouldnt have to pull it again.. but this time, i took the time to do the full rebuild..
Good evenings from 🇨🇦,got a 2002 explorer slipping on 2/ 3 shift. Work ford dealership . Code p732 and o775,,worked on the solenoids, cleaning, no real difference. I had a another's used one,installed but winter hit,waiting for spring. Watching videos like yours, thanks,much appreciation. Going also pull the survoes,after learning their problems. I got a quote of 2000 with tax for a rebuild. The explorer is in very great shape for being here in Nova Scotia. Thanks for the imformative video have a great week.
200 miles in and its still moving for now. For me its about completing a project like that. Its a good feeling using something you brought back from the grave
@@bucksgarage1 did the tranny hold up ? I'm just about to do this exact project..sucks because the tranny was working great and then I heard a slight metal dragging sound (band snapped) ...I'm online looking for a trans jack as I write this....thanks
@@theloosemoose8200 i didn't have any trans problems after that. Put over 10000 more miles in it then the timing chain skipped a tooth and ruined the motor somewhere around 170,000 miles on it total.
@@bucksgarage1 oh man, you just cant win sometimes. Im feeling the hardest part of this debacle will be safely getting the car in the air, time like this have me really thinking about adding a lift to the garage..
My then 1991 Ford Explorer auto transmission began leaking ATF badly while about 500 miles from home. Stopped off at an Aamco shop and was told it needed a rebuild. Spent $2,600 for the rebuild. Interestingly, there was no engine braking in 1st gear before and after the rebuild? About 6,000 miles later it began to drip ATF, the same situation as last time when about a few hundred miles after the dripping started it began losing ATF at about a pint per 50 miles. I should have just driven the Explorer to a wrecking yard and bought a new car! I sold the '91 Explorer to a mechanic for $500. Good for 4Wheeling if nothing else.
I have a 2003 Ford explorer and it's slipping in 3rd gear and it drive in 3rd. That looks like your intermediate servo. I personally believe you can Rheem those out without those guides. Reamers are basically self-aligning. If you can try it out inside you might even be able to do it without taking the transmission apart
The purpose of a rebuild is to add updates. The reason a rebuild is better than a reman is because of the updates but money is everything if you can afford them you’ll have a better transmission then factory
I got about 20k on it and then the timing chain skipped a tooth and broke a ton of stuff internally on the motor so I sold it for scrap. I should have pulled the trans first to sell it separately.
These are one of the worst gd trucks of all time I did the timing chains with the best aftermarket kit you can buy from Cloyes! Suppose to be better than oem. But still rattled, then I put a trans authority trans in the son of a gun well wouldn’t you know it it has torque converter valve body or service issue still? Getting flashing od and check trans…. Unbelievable only vehicle I’ve ever seen you can’t actually Fix no matter how much money you throw at it 😂
Can you tell me if the 40" rise I've seen published for this lift means 40" from the floor, or is it that the lift platform goes up 40" from where it began, which would mean that adding that plus the height of the platform itself would mean it being like 44" or 45" from the floor?
If you decide to DIY, make sure you research and take pictures at every step. Do parts in groups. Take your time and be thourough. In this case the clutch locked up and torched the band when it tried to shift.
?? Its not showing the video Brett Never mind, figured it out. Watching now👍you did cut your head off on it though. I have to pre check lately or i do the same
Good call on only replacing what needs to be replaced. Allot of times especially on older vehicals like you said it's not worth overkill or your wasting money👍
Transmission shop scammed me for $1800 dollars. I took my car in for a torque converter issue and ended up paying for a rebuild that didn't fix anything. Now my car slips and flare in gears.
Did he say a rebuilt Torque converter?????? its a sealed unit, (welded) how do they rebuild one and WHY? the cost would far out weigh buying a new one??
@Ty Weezy minus the ones that get shredded at scrap yards. It's why they charge a core when you buy one. Unless it's from the dealer parts shop or a custom built race converter it's most likely rebuilt.
@Ultimate Being I was explaining what I was doing, why and the cost. You could spend a fortune on a rebuild and it's completely unnecessary in some cases. I have made a bunch of adjustments to how I make videos, more editing and such. I started the channel to help answer some questions people may have, but came to realize that people just want the most info I can pack in the smallest amount of time.
@@bucksgarage1 l was being silly and hope you weren't offended, I always thought to do some video of doing repairs that no one has made but i shy away from it because I've never done one, I've never like being recorded on old video recorders, like VHS, it never sounds like what you hear yourself as, and made you look different, but it's a lot better these days but I'm still traumatize from the past to do one now.

I really hope this works out for ya man! I give you major props for taking on this job.

@@theloosemoose8200 I hear you. It took me a long time to justify buying one and now I look back and can't imagine not having it

Excellent video
Recommend Rock Auto AND the few $$$ for extra hard parts. Servo, harness, friction etc. lots of work

Shouldn't that have been covered under warranty?

Shouldn't a reman have the updates in it when its rebuild to be sold as a reman
Thanks for the info, it saved me a bunch of research time. How's it running? Do you have the 50K on it yet? What's the mileage at now. Thanks Again!
I got about 20k on it and then the timing chain skipped a tooth and broke a ton of stuff internally on the motor so I sold it for scrap. I should have pulled the trans first to sell it separately.
Thanks for the reply, ours has 110k on, I’ll run it about 20k and trade it in. Thanks for your help, stay safe..

I'll check in the morning and get back to you
The top of the lift platform is 40" off of the ground when fully extended.

?? I didnt have any issues after I did the work... I dont even know you.
I paid $2200 rebuilt and installed. Best money I ever spent.
Where please!!!
@@BigSi-xw6wv Amber transmission NJ
@@iamdjnam thank you!!!
You saved a ton of money doing it yourself! #WorldsOkayestFarmer
Amazon $1970 brand new 10 year warranty. If you pay for the warranty.
I wish the rest of the car would make it 10 years.
Do you have any links for everything you used?
It's been a long time since I did that. I don't have the links. Sorry.

eccentric aquarius 85 take it back to them
what would make the overdrive not work
I believe one of the servos being bad could do it. ?
You take the transmission and transfer case as 1 peice
I did
Did he say a rebuilt Torque converter?????? its a sealed unit, (welded) how do they rebuild one and WHY? the cost would far out weigh buying a new one??
They most definitely rebuild torque converters ruclips.net/video/nk6YqloTNWw/видео.html

Is there an update?
4500 miles on it since the rebuild and going strong.
Brett Buckley how many hours did you end up putting into this job?
Somewhere around 10 all said and done.
Brett Buckley was the servo the biggest headache
It was really easy. Only took about 20 mins.
i made it to 4:00 minutes and couldn’t listen a minute longer
What was the problem?
@@bucksgarage1 Because you kept doing needless rambling instead of getting straight to the point.
