Reminds me of my 65 Impala convertible with bench seats, 4 speed, 350hp engine, special ordered.. I installed a Hurst Competition Plus Shifter, in it, twice. First time due to the reverse cable breaking, going through the tollway in Illinois, leaving me with 2 gears.. 2nd time because someone stole the first one.. Bought the chevy from my sister's neighbor in 72 for $400.. As you stated, 3rd gear took a lot of beating.. Got rid of the Chevy in 76, one of the big mistakes in life.
Gotta love the old manuals. Hard to believe relatively simple those transmissions actually were. Complex for the time, but look at a valve body in a modern transmission today and then back at this...WOW. As for O'Reily's now you need to get a feller from Tennessee and do something with him. You should do one of their commercials with VGG. VGG is who moved me over to them, and honestly? They blow away the other two big names in my area (and neither of those are the boys). :) For those that want to learn about a T5 (sorry Richard, hijacking here), check out Eric The Car Guy. He brought in Paul Cangialosi (he wrote the book on the T5) about 8 years ago. He showed Eric how to teardown and rebuild a T5 for his Fairmont project car. Ended up not using it because the car was going to develop way too much power for that T5, but wow was it interesting.
Mmmm Muncie 10 spline! Been in parts for almost 20 years and this has always been my favorite don’t know why but it will go into anything! It can be put to the fine spline GM’s in almost any application.
I've rebuilt a pleny of muncie 4 speeds with out the special tools you have the pin for the reverse lever has always been steel and it is a tappered pin. I never had much problem putting the ball bearing and spring back in for the reverse lever shaft.
Oh boy, that took me back. I never learned automatics, and my dad wouldn't touch them. Did my share of manuals, though. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Richard, for sealing the countershaft you may want to consider Loctite 577 Yellow instead of silicone to seal the shaft to the housing. Just another option.
The reason for the taper on the sliders is so when in 1st gear, the rear 1-2 slider will not contact the reverse idler when in 1st gear! The trans will make a "clanky" noise in 1st gear when you start moving the vehicle. Some sliders are machined thinner from the groove, on the rear of the slider, where the shift fork goes, towards the reverse idler for that reason!
That pin at 13:55 is tapered... it must only be driven out from the bottom as shown. I forget what the rise/run is [size 0?], but if that bore is boogered, there is just enough room to ream it and get a replacement pin to hold - ez duzit.
Hello Richard and Teresa! It took me this long to find the new channel. I'm glad to see you are still making awesome videos! I hope Trent is also doing well! I cant wait to see what's next!
I usually watch all Richards videos of rebuilding transmissions I’ll never own lol . Interesting all the same 😂. Like the manual transmission videos the most
Richard dont know if you ever put a little heat to that gear. I have done that taking them off an putting it back on. Brings back a lot of memories heck i have a 22 that only has 2000 miles on since rebuilt. Thats for sharing. Its cool ti see some old school stuff.
Don't have to remove that pin to get tail housing off. Just unbolt the housing and lift it off. The reverse gear will slide back enough that linkage arm will disconnect. Same going back together. Done it 100's of times.
I replaced second gear when I was 18. One tooth broke off! I don’t know how I managed such a job. It was on the garage floor with news papers soaking up the stinking oil.
I never knew that 62's came with a Muncie, My 62 SS with 300 HP SB came with a Borg Warner T10. And I did know the internals in side. A snapped tooth from 2nd gear got caught between 2nd and the cluster.
Muncie came out in 64. Warner T-10 in just about everything before 64. GM, Ford, Chrysler, and maybe AMC all used them. Borg Warner plant must have run 24-7 to try and keep up. Bill
Haven't had one of those apart in decades. I've got an interesting one that looks to be a major PIA to do: Warner T50 five speed from the late 70's. I need to find parts to do mine. Afraid to see what is inside. It is noisy. Bought it used.
Posi-lok pullers are the bomb Ive had a set for years and went to go look for another the other day and they have skyrocketed like everything else They lost their patent and now there's a knock off
THE SPEEDO GEARS COMES OFF VERY SIMPLE IN A PRESS ! UNDO THE MIDPLATE AND PUT THE WHOLE GEAR STACK IN A PRESS AND EVERYTHING COMES OFF IN 1 SHOT ! WATCH GEARBOX VIDEO ! HE IS THE MUNCIE MAN...NEVER TOO OLD TO LEARN !!!!

Wow, memories of me sitting on the ground in my driveway rebuilding my 4spd trans for my big block SS Nova. Good times!
That speedo drive gear removal is NUTS!

It is actually a labyrinth seal. The rotation of the shaft pulls the oil back in.
On the speedo gear year. The input shaft seal is a labyrinth seal but those seals are not rotation dependent.
Now I wanna see that motor! Excellent vid Rich and Teresa!
I will see what I can do

Its great tobsee the insade of the Muncie. My 69 Z/28 has the M21.
Richard is a fountain of knowledge. i learned a lot. Thanks.
And he's a good teacher!

Good to see you back bro
Don't have to remove that pin to get tail housing off. Just unbolt the housing and lift it off. The reverse gear will slide back enough that linkage arm will disconnect. Same going back together. Done it 100's of times.
Me to as I thought is was more to keep it from going into far an I have a pretty good trick for the spring an ball.
Yeah I did it that way too. You may as well replace the reverse shaft seal while you are at it in which case the pin still needs to come out.
Rocking my brand new Annie shirt as I type! Heres Annie bark at ya!
Greetings from sunny Eastern Washington 😎👍
Wow, we are so excited. Thank you Washington.
Great video, old, old school!!
24:51 on removal of speedometer gear would it help if you heated it a little?
I replaced second gear when I was 18. One tooth broke off! I don’t know how I managed such a job. It was on the garage floor with news papers soaking up the stinking oil.
Your knowledge is amazing. Love you man 👍
Use the sliding reverse gear as a slide hammer. No need for puller. Just pull back on the gear and hit the reverse gear. A few knocks and it's off.
Thank you from one builder to another
love ot see u put them together
Pretty sure all the Muncies have the same diameter reverse idler shaft. The cluster shaft is 2 different sizes. Either 7/8 or 1 inch.
You are right on that one. I was confused when he asked the question.
That dually is gorgous.
Great information Richard thanks for sharing this video
Thanks Richard and Theresa

@@billk5727 Full sized Chevrolets switched from T10 to Muncie 4spds in February '63. My '63 Impala has a factory date coded Muncie 4spd.
Richard is back at ya!!!
I used grease on the cluster thrust washers...
I was looking for the two rings cut in the input shaft donating it as a wide ratio.

Where I come from that "stuff" is called crocus cloth.
I think that's a SPX Posi Lok TJ-1bearing puller???
Enjoy your videos! What Model # OTC puller is it that pulls front bearing?
Nice video guys.
Great video
Nice work
People don’t grasp the tools and techniques and knowledge it takes to get their junk back on the road.
Hello Richard, I am wondering if the owner of a Muncie 4 speed can go into the trans and replace the forks himself without problems?
Sure very simple put the shifter lever and second gear and the side cover will come right off
Thank you for that video on this 4 speed there Richard .
Richard is that an M20 or an M21 , thank you for that great video .
Hoping to see you tear into an SM465
Richard are you going to replace those reverse gears? Mine look like that but I reused them.
Richard I'm from muncie
Where is your new shop located want to send you a 4l60e to go through
the muncie.... is that what was known as the rock crusher?
First and reverse are the same gear...
👍
What you do not have a "dummy" shaft?
Thanks you guys
😉😉😉😉☎️🍽🏁thank's again.....
Stock was borg warner
T 10
keep your hand on the shift knob and wear out your forks.
Posi-lok pullers are the bomb
Ive had a set for years and went to go look for another the other day and they have skyrocketed like everything else
They lost their patent and now there's a knock off
Feelng OK? Sound short of breath.

Spray your hands with Arrid XX Dry, The gloves will slip on like butter and Teresa may even like that.

Richard is the man!
Hey Richard, what brand and part number is that front bearing puller?
I don’t have the part number, but it is a snap on tool I will see if there’s a part number on there
I found a puller that looks pretty similar. Posi lock brand part number TJ-1 it's on Amazon for $261.
