Very cool, great drama on some parts as well. Only if eveyone on RUclips could be as detailted. Great job all around.
Many newbies watching ! When referring to the synchros you should be clear as to the entire assembly is the synchro and the brass is the "synchro ring!"
Awesome video, I love it ! Long live the stick !
Another excellent video best I've seen thanks Again
Very good and detailed procedure. Congratulations.
great video very detailed and top description
Super helpful thank man !!!
Nice video. All I need now is to locate a T5.
good tutorial, thanks. I can only add about the shift interlock finger (shift finger) in the top cover, for the older style was a two piece design that can fail and come apart (press fit pin), I recommend the OEM (tremec) newer designer one piece shift finger, or the aftermarket billet one piece from Amp distributing for an important upgrade. (T5 BILLET STEEL SHIFT INTERLOCKING FINGER T5BSF) plus you dont show how to remove bearing on input shaft as your not re-using the original input shaft but still I had to go to another video to find out proper technique.
That’s a good upgrade to add, thanks for the comment. I usually don’t see them go bad unless the driver doesn’t know how to shift and is abusing it. But I do see a bad one every once in awhile. A short shifter would help prevent this. To remove the input shaft bearing, I use a bearing splitter and a press.
Thank you so much.
Awesome detail in your video mate. Can you tell me how to tell if my 5th gear synchronizer is bad? The 5th slider had beat up teeth when I pulled it. It’s just a a standard looking synchronizer with no fiber lined. Much appreciated any input thank you.
Another question, I notice on your rebuild there is a 5th Gera blocker ring. My trans didn't have one on it and I didn't find one in the kit. I'm talking about the keeper for the springs and dogs in the clutch for 5th gear. I have another 6 cyl for reference but the shaft is to small
Have you tried the anaerobic gels instead of silicone ? They come from the factory with it! It is awesome to use when your mating surfaces are good!
Ive tried it before but its a pain to clean up. The Right Stuff works better, never had an issue. They actually come from the factory with silicone. Ive pulled so many factory sealed T5s out over the years and Ive never seen one with anaerobic sealant.
Just curious, with a trans reverse brake, is it more difficult to slide on the 5th/reverse hub or is it the same difficulty as one without it? I’m trying to slide mines on and i seem to force it to go on but when I put the reverse synchro on I can’t get the c clip to go on. Thank you in advance! I’ve watched it more than dozen times and it’s helped a lot. 👌🏻
Hi Mate where can I buy some of the shims for the counter plate.
how much would you charge to rebuild my getrag5lm60 manual 5 speed truck transmission out of a 1989 c1500 GMC
Excellent video. I'm wondering if you would answer a question. While rebuilding my T5 after installing the bearing retainer when I spin the trans by hand in 3rd gear the keys jump out of the synchro. Any suggestions?
If you are trying to engage 3rd without the input shaft and synchro installed on the front side of the 3-4 slider, the keys have nothing to stop against and will pop out when take it out of 3rd. Leave it in neutral until the input, synchro and retainer are installed, then you can play with it.
@@505speeds thanks.
Where was 4th gear? Is it on the countershaft? I’ve watched both 2 part series 3 times and still can’t find it haha great video brother I’ve learned a lot from it!
Nevermind I found it it’s on the input shaft haha
Can't find any dextron, will dexron work in a pinch? Good video. Don't forget to include the inner cones when installing the 1-2 slider.
Dexron is the correct way to spell/ pronounce it, Ive been calling it wrong for awhile, whoops
Somewhere way back in the line we all learned to stick a "t" in it. Thanks for a great video. Got my 2001 Mustang t5 straightened out.
Youre a legend 👍👍
Youve given me the confidence to do mine myself.
Mine has a reverse synchro and a tab that sticks out towards the rear, is there anything special I need to know about that?
Cheers and thanks again
Clock the tab in the 1 o’clock position when installing the tail housing. Put a little grease on the tab and inside the tail housing where it sits. Might be a good idea to do a few practice fits dry before you put sealant incase you get stuck.
@@505speeds Thanks very much, really appreciate your help. Cheers
@@505speeds I just pulled mine apart and I was surprised to see that when removing the input shaft, I was expecting the rollers and a thrust bearing but I have a taper roller in place of that. What does this mean? The rest appears the same.
I just finished my rebuild with the kit I bought from you. Do you have a preferred hydraulic throwout bearing? Thanks, Kevin Burns
I can not speak from experience on hydraulic conversions for late model factory cable driven mustangs. From what I’ve heard they can be a pain to setup and get right as far as staying sealed and reliability. Maybe someone else here can help guide you in the right direction. My opinion is I believe its more reliable to keep factory cable driven mustang with cables. If you put a heavy clutch then it will stretch that cable in no time. I recommend Mcleod clutches as they have a factory pedal/pressure plate feel and its easy on cables and drivetrain. Even there twin disc setups!
Where are you located?
18:20 The process of putting this on for me is very difficult. Can it be extremely tight sometimes? I hammer it with a socket and it is definitely going in but I am hitting very hard and it's taking a while is this a red flag 505speeds? I've seen other rebuilds and they mention that the newer T5s can be very tight to get that keys fork thing on.
Also, is it a good idea to use a press instead? Very carefully ofcourse.
It should be a tight fit, make sure your socket is wide enough to clear the splines on the main shaft when tapping it down. Also make sure you have a solid table or surface to hammer on. Im using a 1/2” thick steel slab table. Don’t forget to line up the synchro slots with the keys! I find it more difficult with older T5s than the newer ones. Good luck 👍🏻
all right thanks. comforting to know that it doesnt always slide in so well like in the videos. i also found that synchro cone i message u on eBay about. cost me 80$ but it is what it is. thoughts on just using a press to get that part in?@@505speeds
What year T5 Transmission are the best to look for to rebuild? Going install it in 67 Mustang with a 302.
Any virgin 87-93 World Class preferably. Many times these T5s are taken apart and rebuilt 2-3-4-5 times by various rebuilders or “rebuilders”. If its a been rebuilt by a “rebuilder”, wrong tools were used, hard parts may be damaged, threads stripped out, mating surfaces warped causing the rebuild process to be a headache and not worth it. If it has a tag on the top left second down case bolt its a good chance its a virgin or been rebuilt by someone who cares. You could always find one from a 94-97 base v6 mustang as they are usually not abused or opened before. But the gears will need to be swapped out to do the job correctly. But you will have a virgin case and hard parts.
@@505speeds Thanks, do you have rebuilt transmissions?
@@fdwsr71 I try to keep one in stock ready to go but it depends on availability. I do have a standard rebuild T5 ready to go. Located in Costa Mesa, Ca. Shipping is usually a deal breaker and not worth it, local pick up. Here is the link facebook.com/marketplace/item/730533515740145/?mibextid=6ojiHh
@@505speeds ok thanks
you are using a different gear set but I assume procedure and parts are the same with stock gears correct?
That is correct
@@505speeds Do you find the shift lugs or finger needing replacement under normal driving rebuilds?
@@davidmoeller17 They are always good to check but they are normally fine. I get a bad one every now and then. They usually only go bad when it is abused, a stock shifter is misused or the driver doesn’t know how to shift.
What is your business email? I need to send my trans to you.
@@davidmoeller17 505speeds@gmail.com
have you ever used allstate gear synchros?
Im sure I have before
@@505speeds so are they good? Thank you for your time
@@charlesellenberger1352 they should be but its always good to check the synchro on the gear. Every now and then there is a bad apple
I’m with you on that. I was just wondering about the Transolution brand they carry? I’ve always used tremec but haven’t been able to find them anywhere in a long time. I stumbled on one of your videos on RUclips and I was impressed enough to ask your opinion on this brand. I’m an old man and I can remember buying COMPLETE TREMEC KITS for $140. Prices today are insane
Where do I find this rebuild kit

Superior quality video
The hair all over everything is killing me. 🤦♂️
