    LBZ: Trans build prep

    The sump filter is the large internal filter correct? I removed the old rubber gasket in it before the new filter went in and installed the filter lock. Adding more fluid right now Mike.

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    So the c4's had the same plate thicknesses as the c3's. 3 thick and 2 thin. Both sides we did thick in the middle. C3, input drum, pump, and bell housing are all installed and torqued down. C4's are in. Just have the planetary's to do befor the c5's go back and the tail housing is done. VB is...

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    I heard from Andrew and he said to check with George in there shop there, so I think I'll just double check with him, but thanks for the insight as to why the thick ones should run in the middle of the stack. I'm eager to get the c3's finished off as the input drum and pump are complete, so...

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    So, here's my problem. Hopefully Andrew sees this or Mike knows. With the pinwheels I have 5 steels, 3 thick and 2 thin. The original steels that come with the gmax kit according to the sheets are all the same. Is there a particular order or does it matter? I was thinking...

    Get the atsg as well. You need both, believe me. Make sure you have tall stands. I had my jack on a pair of 4x4's with another 4x4 maxed out and still had to use a dip in the asphalt to sneak the bell housing under the frame. I have to lift the truck higher tomorrow to get the tranny back...

    Went to put in the c3's and I got stumped. I have different steels because I went with the pinwheels. Tried to call your cell Mike but the number on here didn't work. Sent Andrew a message but I don't think he saw so we called it quits for the night.

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    I keep getting caught up in ATF and can't grab the camera lol. The input drum is a pain in the ass already to push everything down enough to get the snap rings on. Dad just went to get a new compressor. His is dead and we need it. About now Mike, I bet your dreading a call from me when I get...

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    I just wanna say unless you have access to a hoist and (at a minimum) air tools, it really sucks pulling it all out caveman style. Had to call poor Mike today with what had to be the dumbest of questions. I bet he's just waiting for me to wreck it now lol. Sorry to have bugged ya Mike, I felt...

    LBZ: Trans build prep

    I have my gopro with me, so I'll try to record as much as I can. Only lasts 3 hours on 1 battery, but I'll be trying. At the very least I'll have pictures lol. Once I get started though I tend to get over focused and forget things happening around me, so hopefully my dad is on the ball. A vid...

    Still trying to get it out. Having a hard time breaking the bolts loose on the torque converter. Everything is unplugged except the main connector behind the pan. Just getting the lines off it. Maybe in a couple hours ill be ready to drop it.

    I'll try not to bother you unless I'm stumped. And if I screw it up I'll just burn it so I don't bother you at all, sound fair?:angel: Couple pics coming up. And I think I'll do a documentary and post it in my build thread on DF, from tear out to the fiery aftermath of amateur rebuilding.

    Tonight I'll either be dropping the trans, or just draining it and starting on it tomorrow. Just waiting to confirm with my dad.
