- One thing I forgot in the video is the a/c drain. Reroute the drain using a piece of heater hose glued to the drain long enough to reach past the pan, especially on the trucks. It drains onto the band struts and the solenoid connector causing corrosion.

Thank you for making this video. I have been working on cars for 30 years and would never have attempted this without videos like yours. This puts a Hayes manual to shame.
Glad it helped, thanks for watching.
You're my hero! "It's full when it's full"! You know why they are asking what the spec for the fluid capacity is: because lazy. A spec can say anything, but there is no way for you to know the precise amount of fluid that transmission will require. Besides, there's a paying customer behind that transmission and it ought to be the first thing on their minds when they decide to do the right thing (or not). I don't doubt they would be furious to find out someone did that to their vehicle. I've been a master mechanic for over 15 years, and I feel your frustration and empathize with your rant. I sure hope they look to you for inspiration when they decide how to shape their careers in the future. There's a reason they are the pullers/installers, and you are the one doing the real work diagnosing and properly repairing/rebuilding those transmissions.
I think that question pisses me off more than any other. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video brother!!!
No problem 👍
Hi. Great video thanks. Regarding the solinoid pack.. Is there a factory depth the adjustable screws should be set to? or how do you go about setting the correct depth? thanks
I am not sure what you are referring to. The solenoids don't have adjustments to them. If you are talking about the 30Torx bolts that hold it on. Start in the center and work your way out on the side closest to the pan rail. Then start in the center and tighten the side closer to the valve body. 71 in. lbs.
Hey! I’ve been using your video to rebuild a 2010 mustang 5r55S. I was going to replace the valve body but ford changed the valve body from 09-10 slightly. Are those backwards compatible by chance? If not, what sort of issues would it cause if an 08 valve body was used?
Harsh 1-2 upshift and a 2-3 flair. Late casting has an RF# of 9L2P-7A101-AA.
@@CurmudgeonTransmission thank you so much!
Great video. Getting ready to pull trans out of 02 mountaineer 4.6 2wd. Truck shifts good. But has a power steering whine noise, no matter if park or neutral. Definitely trans, think it's pump. If torque was bad it wouldn't shift right would it? Is pump bad about whining in these?
Thanks. Not necessarily. No they are not prone to that. I would bet it is a clogged filter. Thanks for watching.
@CurmudgeonTransmission That's what I initially thought, but changed it pulled apart the shift solenoid, and cleaned it. Still does it.
Then it would have to be a bearing in the overdrive section. That will be the only other thing turning in Park and Neutral.
@CurmudgeonTransmission Took it apart and never found any problems, The bearing is in good snaps, the pump is good no damage, and no grooves or anything. Only thing I left is toque converter.
Hey man i’m about to cop a 2005 gt automatic with 100k. I’ve heard the 55r5 trans has some problems going bad between 100-150k for a lot of people. However some peoples have gone up to almost 300k. Obviously a lot of this is determined by fluid changes and how hard the car was driven..but the owner i’m buying it from said he’s never done a trans fluid or filter change. If i changed it first thing after buying you think I’d be alright? Or is a 100k trans that’s never been serviced a ticking time bomb?
Me personally I would not recommend changing the fluid after that long. Hard to say how long it will last.
Thanks, but why 2 turn and not 2.5?, teaching my kid auto.
In my opinion 2.5 is too loose. I have less problems at 2. Makes the shifts better in my opinion. I rarely follow the book on band adjustments and do it by how much travel the servo has. Most should be about an 1/8" some I do even tighter than that.
@@CurmudgeonTransmission thanks again
No problem, thanks for watching.
Hell, your video has inferior visibility. You are head booking. Every piece you are installing is being blocked by your head. Next time, move your camera to a better angle.
