Excelent video as always and this gentleman helped me on a few questions about my 5r55w and its more then perfect on its rebuild that I did all by myself

If i wasn't so far away from your shop I would definitely bring my X5 there. From watching your videos I see you are very thorough. And I also was from the garden capital of the world myself..lol. stay well Gary.

Awesome video bro!!!!!!Thank you so much for putting this on here.

Gary is the one to go to, he did an awesome job he is good at what he does, I recommend Gary. He does excellent work and he's honest quality you can't find out there right now

Excellent tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

Its like you are field dressing a deer that you just hunted.lol Its very interesting. I have to really learn this to rebuild my 45RFE in my 02 Jeep WJ.

Great video! I have a 545RFE in my 07 Ram, it works fine but it's a machine and will fail at some point. I've wondered if I could DIY this job but also know that you make it look easy because of experience that I don't have. When the day comes I may just go with a reman.

So I'm thinking I need to check my flex plate for loosened bolts. Is there an inspection cover on the blasted thing? I have 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 .

Thoroughly enjoyed this video - what a wealth of knowledge! I plan on rebuilding my 545rfe. I am considering the "Monster in a Box" from Monster Transmissions - what is your opinion of their kits? I built a stroked and bored 399c.i. hemi from a 5.7: Eagle heads and intake, Molnar crank/rods with Carillo pistons, custom cam (torque profile), long tube headers. I expect it to make about 500-550hp. Unsure on torque numbers. My transmission has been great - no issues. I just don't want to kill it after installing this built engine. In your opinion, what is the best way to make it live as long as possible? This is a 4x4 4 door half ton truck with a 6" lift and 35" mud tires. I don't hot rod my truck, but I do pull somewhat heavy trailers. Thanks for any info you can give.

What do you anticipate caused all the frictions to have “Undesired Thermal Spotting”? Do you think it was from the Front Pump Solenoid Switch Valve? Is there anyway you could film a video of you performing a “Vacuum Test” on a main control/valve body as well? Maybe just a short video of one failing? Thanks for the great videos!

Which special tools do you need to rebuild the 545rfe?

I put a used solenoid pack from an 04 Jeep in my 03 jeep grand Cherokee last night. Got it all buttoned up and fluid topped off. It shifts through all the gears but has zero drive in any of them. I didn't pay attention to the color of the connector of the part that I put in and will verify today after work. They old one is black and if the "new" one is white could that be why it has zero power when in gear? I'm assuming I need to drop it all and swap the plates.

Put a used 545 RFE in that had the white connector. Trying to figure out what the cam plate is. I'm guessing that's the harness connector end that connects it. Mine wasn't changed. Is that cam plate the harness connector that feeds into the trans

This transmission looked really clean. What do you think was root cause of this failure? Just normal wear in the clutches?

I have a 2006 Dodge Dakota with an automatic transmission. The transmission has trouble codes P0733 and P1790. I'm trying to perform a 3rd gear clutch test with my scan tool. I can't figure out, how to shift the transmission into overdrive. The 2-4 overdrive clutch fill index is 54.

Hello could tell me if a 06 545rfe ram transmission that doesn't shift period would you say if it is fixable or should a replacement be better !!!

ive had that light on for years lmao i thought it was the tipm since i replaced from another truck lol

It boggles my mind, how on earth do u know what order the clutch plates go in? When you pull them out at 24:29 and fan them, how do u know what order they go in? Or does it matter?

garry is there a way you could contact me about a zf5hp19 i have a question on ?

What’s up Gary? On this vehicle if the transmission is making a popping noise like it is overheating but has regular fluid what can it be? No codes

Hi Gary, I have a mid 2003 Jeep grand cherokee 4.7 ho, was driving along and it lost drive the other week, oil was pooring from between the bell housing and engine, I've removed the transmission and pulled the Torque converter, the o ring on the Torque converter hub looks very worn and flat on the outside,, I've also removed the front pump seal that the Torque converter goes into, would just those 2 seals cause that issue or do I need to pull the transmission apart further to find the problem? Many thanks Dean

What about the cooling line case nuts? Did you manage to find a way to replace the seal inside those case nuts?

Where can i get the update kit for a solenoid valve?

Hey guys off topic, but is the Jatco CVT still so unreliable? I am looking at a Chevrolet Spark or Mitsubishi Mirage with that transmission. Cheers from Brooklyn!

What is the average amount of miles these transmissions typically achieve before they break down?

I have a 01 grand Cherokee 2wd 4.7 with 91,000 miles that i wrecked 70 mph, spun around and hit hard on driver's side rear and spun around like a helicopter rotor and crashed the front also. I also had one with a blown motor so i test fired up the wrecked one, ran and sounded good so i swapped motor and tranny together. Everything was fine at first then i started getting a buzzing sound from transmission area, sounds like more towards front and getting a p0700 code and must be in limp mode. I can manually downshift, and 1st gear works but hits into gear hard. It buzzes only in park and neutral and stops instantly when i put it in gear. reverse works fine. Do you think this issue could be in the valve body or something deeper?

What symtoms would you have if the input and out put sensors were bad

hello, I own a jeep cherokee liberty limited 2003 KJ 2.8 CRD, with my diagnostic devices (DRBIII emulator, Icarsoft) the following DTCs are still present despite their erase. It's P0740 TCC out of range, P2704, P0218, P0868, when I drive I feel vibrations, I can't say exactly if it comes from the gearbox...I'M NOT A MECHANIC. Your videos are very informative, which is why I am turning to you with the idea of ​​having information from a specialist to help me solve this problem. The accelerator pedal is sometimes soft and sometimes not...is there a connection? I changed the oil, the filter but I did not change the flat filter. Thank you for your response, help and support

What’s the spline count?
