would have been good to use Loctite on the flywheel Bolts

Yeah, that would have been good Dennis. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

I’m waiting for you to hook up the pressure gauge to see if it leaks when you take the nut off and screw in the tester hose. And how to adjust the cable. That I haven’t done as of yet

Hello I too did what you are doing and I did the same with putting too much transmission fluid in and it leaked out. The thing is! You don’t need a yoke on your transmission. Just start it up and add the rest of your fluid. My transmission had no fluid. I added around 5 and it started leaking so I started the engine and added the rest of the fluid. A total of 12L. Once the internals of the transmission start spinning it will stop leaking out the back. I know it doesn’t make sense but it true. The reason I k ow this is because I called a transmission guy who rebuilt my transmission and he told me to just start it up and add the rest of the fluid. He said it will stop leaking and he was correct. Even when the engine was turned off and all the fluid settles it did not leak with out the yoke.

Good video love that truck I’m thinking the C6 yoke is the same as the AOD

I believe you’re right! I’m going to end up needing a new driveshaft probably - even my new yoke isn’t exactly right (too wide), but I’m going to keep it and get a drive shaft built to mate it. Frustrating.

Hi, I’m trying to do the same thing with a Holley sniper and the aod. My only question is; Is the cable bracket the srk-4000 universal one? Or is it the Holley sniper specific tcb-40hs? Of course, there’s also a large difference in price between both, thanks

@williamtunnell Жыл бұрын

Honestly, I don’t recall. I bought it alongside the Sniper - it was made by LOKAR and was specific for the AOD.

@@williamtunnell Ah. Well, based on what is shown, I think it’s the Srk-4000 one. That’s good since it’s the cheaper one. Really like the truck and the build even though I’ve only really watched the transmission and efi parts. Thanks

Thanks a lot sir! I’ve been delayed for a while, life, kids, work - I’m sure you know. I fouled the pump on my transmission and don’t have the cash to get it rebuilt again - not yet. I appreciate you watching and writing!

I got 302 with 2 barrel carburetor on my 79 f100 my question is I get AOD transmision wich tv cable I need?

@williamtunnell Жыл бұрын

Jose, a company named LOKAR makes all the TV cables for the different configurations. I got both my FMX cable and my AOD cable from them and both seem to work well. I’ve messed up the pump on my AOD so I’m out of commission at the moment.

Would the fmx mount not bolt to the OD?

It wouldn’t, but I sure wish it did!
