    I wasn't surprised to see you tackle this, but without a parts explosion to show what goes where it is a more difficult task. As you pointed out, taking it apart is the easy half of the repair. I am eager to see you get it all back together and working. I expect to see you driving it soon.

PS I had to laugh when you said you didn't know if you were going to tear it down...I knew that there was no way we weren't seeing the inside of that transmission!! LOL

    Clint,
    As a retired accountant, my early exposure to a small engine class in jr high gave me the basics of a combustion engine, but your knowledge and the ease which you display in a wide range of problems amazes me. Your expertise in your craft is right up there with any Masters or PhD in the academic world and so much more refreshing in today's hyper charged political society. God bless you and your family.

    “we don’t need no stinkin manuals” (slightly revised line from an old movie classic “Blazing Saddles”).
    Clinton, I know from watching your videos over the year or two, that you can take apart, and re-assemble any Cat or John Deere (and probably any other heavy equipment brand) transmission…, with your eyes closed…, and I think I know, that you probably haven’t tore into or apart, one of these Mercedes transmissions…, in your lifetime…
    I say all of the above to say, that this video is just amazing to see. You have “no fear”, it is pretty impressive & awesome to see that in action, which is why I keep watching, and I suspect is why you have the viewership that you do.
    Course the alternative of $13K spent at the dealership, might have been a motivator too… hahaha.!
    If I didn’t say it already,
    Great video..! Looking forward to the follow-up video.
    Thank you sir.

    Grew up on a farm, dad fixed what needed to be fixed. Back in the late '60's a local firm sold dad an International truck they were trying to use as a semi but it kept blowing third gear. It finally blew one time too many and they offered it to dad at a "get it out of here" price. His mechanic opened the transmission up and found the blown gears. The sale had included replacement gears; mechanic found they were putting the gears in backwards, leading to the failure. Dad put a grain bed on it and ran it for 20 years.

    I like watching someone else repair this kind of stuff , it helps me remember why I want nothing to do with this stuff any more , lol . The mouse had nothing to do with the trans carnage , this was caused by the aluminum trans case flexing when put under the severe load of moving heavy loads . Way back in '63 Chevy tried going to aluminum case Muncie four speeds , instead of the cast iron Borg Warner T10s behind the 409s , it didn't work out so well . The Ford top loaders and Mopar A833s were cast iron case trans for a reason .

    Most all of the RAM 3500s (the bucket trucks plus the one dog catcher truck) in my garage are on their 2nd transmissions. The mechanics said they were spec'd to use a cab and chassis that couldn't really handle the weight of the single stage boom/utilty bodies we use but that doesn't explain why the dog catcher truck's trans crapped out twice. There are 3 Cummins RAM buckets used by my fellow splicers and those things just keep on rolling with no major problems.

    At about 9:15 I could see and hear a big chunk drop out. Buddy had a mouse chew up all the wirers on his 4 wheeler. They can destroy a lot.

    Well, you are certainly a master mechanic. No job is too hard or difficult. I wish I had the aptitude and knowledge to tackle such a project. Love watching you !

    I had the intermediate plate on my south bend break all the ears off. One piece went through the housing. Now I am running a valair much smother than the south bend. Great video on the transmission now I know what mine looks like if it ever goes out.

    I like what you do it’s very informative to know about how something happens and knowing how to fix it.
