Did I Waste $4000 on a DIY Transmission Rebuild (47RE)? Let’s Find Out!

why did I watch 38mins of someone repairing a transmission that I will never ever do? That's how good your videos are

Insane quality of content. There are so many problems with youtube, but you're one of the reasons why I'll never leave.

I don't have this truck, I don't have anything with the same engine or transmission. But someone out there does, and nothing drives me more wild then watching these build or repair videos where the techs have every special tool and house made jigs that no one else would have. I can't state my level of appreciation that you skipped using as much of it as possible for this video. Please make more of this. More refit, repair videos of how anyone would have to do it in their driveway or garage. Cars, trucks, motorcycles, lawnmowers, whatever, anything, just more! Great work as always!

Holy crap! Much respect for those of you that do this for a living or a DIY shade tree mechanic! Makes complete sense why it costs so much to have this done!

Just remember, there Will be a DIYer out there with a tablet set up in their shop watching this as they rebuild a transmission. The money saved, the satisfaction of doing it themselves, and the boost to their ego to be able to try even more new jobs is worth every penny you put into this (and all of the other videos) video. The country needs more content like yours for building confidence in our youth. Thank you for all you do. By the way, your happiness at the end was infectious.

As a mechanic that previously worked at a transmission shop, you did a very good job rebuilding and explaining the process. Gold Star!

This video is insane, well done! I can't imagine how many hours the rebuild, editing, and voiceover took to make this video. Thank you for all your hard and quality work!

THIS is the content I come back for, I love DIY repair. Not accepting sponsors is a huge financial sacrifice on your part and it means a lot to me.

Most people have no idea what a marvelous invention the automatic transmission is! And I would never even think of attempting this! Great show Todd! 😎✌️

Saved 60k from building a new truck and helped the environment a ton as well. Hell yeah for keeping old vehicles goinf

The best most honest channel on YouTube and no freebies shows a man and his true character! A great honest man I respect you and what you do

It was very kind and considerate of you to have the mechanics talk about various topics, what tools they liked and essentially make them part of the video. That was actually my favorite part, because everyone already knows you make the best comparison videos.

Most youtubers skip this kind of content because they fear of boring us... Truth is, this type of content is what's the most interesting. Thank you for respecting our intelligence.

I'm always amazed at automatic transmissions and the amount of planning that went into not just the design but the assembly steps.

Insane how far this channel has come from humble beginnings, still just as good as day one. Thank you for quality content.

I contemplated DIYing the trans in my old passenger full size van but ultimately decided to pay a professional ~$3000 to redo it since this vehicle was taking two families on a road trip 2000 miles. My guy did a great job and not a single regret swinging the money to have it done right. Having seen this video some years later I feel even more justified in my decision. Great video!

My Dad was an automatic transmission guru. This video finally made me appreciate how talented he was. Thank you

I will probably never rebuild a transmission myself, but it was a pleasure to see so much positive emotions at one video. Such a pleasure to watch you, sir 👍

I have been a homebuilder and working on small and heavy equipment for over 20 years and I still learn things from this channel.

I love how you can take one of the most feared processes in the auto mechanic world, and break it down to layman's terms. This video is amazing, I hope you never stop making them!
