Only a true professional is capable of removing this transmission in a 30 minutes uncut video, while explaining every step. Much respect!

Still going strong in 2023. Thank you for taking the time to record, explain, and post this!

This video is extremely impressive for accuracy and job performance. Has saved me a ton of work and I had mine out in 2 hours with jack stands on a concrete pad.

Best video out for a Trailblazer transmission removal. There's no wasted time on anything just facts and getting the job done. Keep making great videos. Thanks.

I have yet to have a repair job on my vehicles that I couldn't do but never thought I'd be rebuilding a transmission. Thanks for the videos. With these videos I am confident that I'll get the job done and done right.

Thank you, all I needed was to swap out the trans mount. I'm a rookie, but after watching ur video, I have accomplished my goal.

30 mins... YOU ARE THE MAN. great vid.

Very good to the point video. I wish more videos on KZfaq were as such. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Brother this is the best video out no bs ,to the point and understandable. Im doin my 1st currently and the screen is under there w me. You saved me so much money. Thanks

Absolutely awsome video!!...I was already suffering,... contemplating starter removal, while getting ready to remove that cat converter for access...and I hadn't noticed the torque converter bolt, access hole!

Wanna say thank you I'm 17 never pulled a trans in my life bought a 08 trailblazer mint condition with a bad trans to flip it and got the old trans out in about 3 hours learned not to do it on gravel next time thank you for posting this it helped me out alot

You make it look so easy lol. I gotta pull one tomorrow...never pulled one out on a envoy/trailblazer before.

I've been watching crap for a week trying to talk myself into doing this.... well my truck is on stands right now and it's all your fault -thank you ya made me think I have a chance. Excellent video sir many many thanks🛻

Great job very helpful. I have a garage comin next month after thirty years of working on plywood. After that gonna save up and maybe get a lift. Thanks again.

Great video. I'm linking this for my DIY customers doing a 6L80/90 swap.

Great video!! Helped me remove the transmission in my 07 trailblazer. I attempted to create a video on my removal, but will be posting your link on my video!! Giving credit where it is due!! Thanks man!!

Thanks for this. “Dude we can fix it” had a very detailed series on the 4L60E but it wasn’t a 4x4

I'm sad to say, it looks like I'm going to be doing this to my Saab 9-7x (another GM rebadge) today. It blows my mind that you were able to do this entire transfer case and transmission removal with nearly no editing and were done in thirty minutes, that's amazing. I'll be doing mine laying on my back on the garage floor which will make it worse but I guarantee it's going to take me all day and possibly two. You obviously know your s#it! Well done and props to your camera operator. You both do a great job! Many thanks for doing this video.

Thank you for sharing this video. Now I'll be able too take the transmission and transfer case out of the trail blazer.

I got to change out same 2003 trail blazer trans today You. Put. Clearly as it can be. Thanks

Awsome video. Thanks I'm ready to go. The hose clips are only thing I'm worried about.

Good video. Tearing into mine soon. Always a good idea to do a little homework , so you know what your getting into.

Very good video breakdown. Few minor points worth adding for a DIYer. -there are a couple connections plugged into the transfer case. -on the cross member I think it’s better to attack the 4 horizontal bolts first bc if there is any type of rust in there it makes getting them out easier. -on the transmission lines….over time the quick connectors corrode which makes removing the clips near impossible…..instead there are couplers for those lines under the hood adjacent to the air box assy which are much easier to access there. -for the torque converter bolts use either a swivel or universal for a regular ratchet or use a low profile ratchet…..problem being there isn’t quite enough clearance for normal ratchets so as you turn the ratchet it causes a slight misalignment which can result in damaging the head of the torque converter bolt…..doing so repeatedly will likely round off the head…..if you do not have a swivel or low profile ratchet then just break the bolts loose with a ratchet then turn back them off the rest of the way with an open ended wrench.

This helped me very much through this process. Thank you

so nice and rust free!

Excellent with great detail!

Thanks for taking the time to show this. It's not too bad but it's a lot worse on your back under the car vs on a lift!

Great clip! I've done quite a few of these but thought I'd watch one and refresh my memory. Your vid did better than that for me, I didn't know whether or not I was going to have to pull the starter or not. Very informative. I wasn't going to watch the install vid but now I am! LOL Thanks a lot!

Thank you,I was able to pull my own and saved $1000

Very nicely done. How about I borrow your garage, your lift, your tools, and your fancy transmission jack. You make it look so fun.

Great video

Terrific video! straight to the point and showing all the tips in and all around. Thank you for taking the time and kudos to your pops on camera! Now on to watch your install next.

Good video i worked at a chrysler dealership for a bout 7 years and the newer trans have the alignment holes 8 speed 9 speed and the 64re

good job keepem comeing

Amazing work!!!!

As a mechanic i say thank u i tend to stay in my own lane which is 90s and earlier models but the way things have been im taking everything i can i hate this newer stuff but its not as bad as everyone makes it out to he

great video

Best video out there !!! Good shit bro !! 👏 👏 👏

Really helpful. Thanks.

Very good helped.me out a crap ton Thanks

great video, thank you

Thanks for the video

Great video! Thinking about attempting this with 2004 Envoy, but this coupled with a rebuild seems like waaaay too much work for an old car...

Well done sir

What would the trans R&R job cost if customer brought transmission on a 5.3 Envoy? You made that look easy & fast. On the lines, I bought the Lisle tool, it's about the size of a half dollar and knurled, it opens and slips on the line and pushes open the clip to pop the line out. I was handy with AN type fittings & SS braided line... I already bought new Delco steel lines but wonder if it's faster just running SS braided lines forward to a trans cooler?

Most definitely need some help fixing my trailblazer

wow mate, wow !

Enjoyed the video helped me out a ton appreciate you and your help

Nice 30min nice

Question for you. 2006 Envoy XL DENALI About 1 month ago I was on the highway at about 70mph and was cut-off and had to slam on the brakes. The GMC started to make all sorts of clanking sounds after the incident. The torque converter was locked up when I had to jam on the brakes so I’m fairly certain my noise is in that area. The clanking is very audible at idle and while under power. When I decelerate the noise is absent. Does that sound like a Torque Converter issue? I at first was thinking it was my flex-plate but I would think I’d hear that clanking whether I was accelerating or decelerating.

Thank you

that looks freaking easy when you see it on video, 30 min and its off, plus explaining at the same time ... god i'd like to be able to do that too

On a '03 Chevy trailblazer the charcoal canister is square and sits behind the cross member. You need to move it to get the boltsout for the cross member. on the side of the canister facing the front of the vehicle. There are two clamps/clips- there are small slots where you can put a screwdriver and pop it open. Took me 2 days to figure that out. :-(

Thanks for a great video. I'm doing this in my driveway on my back. 2 wheel drive TB. I noticed you didn't mess with the exhaust. Did you just not show that?

Thanks

hello friend .I’m renting transmissions every day .but it takes me 3-4 hours. We don’t have a lift, I do everything from the ground lying under the car

I have a question for you sir. What would fail in an 05 trailblazer transmission with a blocked off cooler line that was driven seventy miles to cause reverse to go out even though every gear worked perfect before??? I know the trans is shot, putting a different one in right now, Im just one of those guys that has to know the what and why. And thank you for the great video. Saved me a bunch of time and money I dont have.

Now imagine im in the process of doing this for the 4th time just on jack stands

Great video. Pretty much the same on the trailblazer ss 6.0 with the 4l70-e? Preparing for the day it goes out.

Just out of curiosity, why do you pull the trigger on the impact 3 or 4 or more times each bolt? Don't you have enough air supply to get a bolt out in 1 squeeze? I have a cordless impact and wonder if this would "impact" (no pun intended) the battery life, 4 squeezes vs just 1 long squeeze...

Great vid.. I have followed the instructions but can''t get the bell housing to separate from the engine on an 03 Trailblazer LS. Any suggestions?

How long do you think it'd take you to put in the 4 trans cooler steel lines? I can't get under vehicles anymore and have rusty leaking lines and bought 4 new AC Delco lines as well as the Jiffy tool and looking to have somebody (preferably) with a lift and would like to know a good/great price. 04 Envoy 4wd, V8 5.3L. Thanks.

To replace flywheel on trailblazer 4.2 do u have to take the transmission all the way out ? Thanx..

You don’t show how to get the cooler lines off. You say there’s a clip but how does it work???

Hey how's it going. Great video! Can you tell me Will a 2005 4l60e trailblazer 4wd swap to a 04' silverado 1500 ls 4x4?

How much does it cost to replace a transmission like that one in labor ?

Excellent how to... Sure wish I had a lift instead of laying on the ground. :(

Hola discúlpame que herramientas necesitas aparte de Los Gatos

What l460e are compatible with the H3 I'm wondering if I can swap one from a Colorado I heard programming may be a problem any information would be much appreciated/ great video by the way

I'm getting ready to do a tranny on a 02 trailblazer. It also needs a front diff. Would it be easier to get the diff out of the oil pan and out of the vehicle while the tranny is out? Its a big job to do the diff, just wondering if this will make the job easier while the tranny is out.

Im having an issue with putting the crossmember transmission/exhaust hanger bracket back in.. Cant get it to line up or the clearance to get it past the edge of the transfercase

I'm about to pull the trans out of my 2012 4x4 Colorado. It's the process closer to the trailblazer, or a Silverado? Trying to get as much knowledge as I can before I get started

Would I need to lift the whole trailblazer off of the ground to accomplish this or could I simply raise just the front or the back of the vehicle? I do not have a lift and will be doing this laying under the vehicle. Awesome video!

So can I use any 4l60e and just swap the bell housing from the trailblazer to the new tranny or are these trailblazer specific

hello friend I have a 2008 trailblazer envoy that has a transfer sound when I put reverse .. what can it be? thank you

How many total bolts are on the bell housing ? I got 8 out and the transmission is still stuck

I just removed and replaced a transmission and transfer case on a 05 trailblazer. Now I have no speedometer and there's a 3rd plug that looks like it's for the speed sensor but I can't seem to find where it goes. I have all of the plugs on the transfer case and it doesn't go to the transmission either.... Any suggestions? At 28:30 , I believe it's the one hanging out in front of you

Hey brotha if I was too pull a 1993 chevy Silverado z71 4x4 would I be able too bolt it up with the 2003 chevy trail blazer, minus maybe having too change the transmission computer out on my chevy truck computer and using the 2003 chevy tail blazer transmission computer, or would it all work in sink with out doing any thing looks too be all the same minus bell housing is none removable on my trucks trans

So you don't have to take starter out on a trailblazer to remove transmission?

Grate job

Which year model were you working on and what year ranges are the same?

He's awesome. I'm just as good. They're not that bad. That's how a vehicle should be built unlike Ford. Good old American muscle GM Trucks.

I’m tripping cuz I installed mines in 1 hour with a hoist and a big ass transmission lift

How close is this to a 2002 Sonoma 4WD? Thanks!

Will it it work if I use the original bell housing

Fuck I need to get a lift...

My Sony some help with mine badly I wish you could come and do mine I need to drop one and put a new one in desperately bad and I'm by myself don't know what I'm doing and I got so many days to do it in your video is great but I don't even have all the tools or anything I don't have nothing to be able to do this come help me

are the v8 model different??????????

It's never that easy when trying do stuff

Longer with Hand tools lol

Where do you live

but because of that reason it really sucks ass to put in the starter ! what are you doing half the time?you dont explain anything that your doing so we will now what we're viewing,speciffi9cally around the torque converter.

the vent clip is the same as a butterfly clip holing lines into the radiator. fro the rest of the class. never says shit about what your looking at or what step./

I guess my 2wd will be easier

Thanks
