Very good vedio EXCEPT you left out the most important thing of all !
When installing a new torque converter you need to pour at least a quart of ATF inside the unit before its installed !
Not bad a greenhorn !
Keep working with them and one day you'll see the big picture 🐒

Is there a video showing how you took transmission out? If purchased torque converter how long is reasonable for shop to keep?

[ResidentAlien]

Great Video! Straight forward... no BS... Thank you!

Great video!
Id like to know, I removed my transmission with the torque converter still bolted onto the flywheel on my sc400 to replace the input shaft seal. When putting the trans back will I have to clock the torque converter so that it lines up with the internal trans pump?

Do you need to prefill the torque converter with fluid?

[SenorDennis]

I’m guessing you didn’t show getting the transmission off and onto the pallet because it’s super easy right

[forternc]

do you fill the converter with fluid before putting it on? or just slide it on as in the video?

My Toyota has like a problem shifting to first gear. And between 30-45 It feels like I’m driving on rough road And I’ve been doing research and come to the conclusion that is the torque converter. I am correct? Just want to be sure before spending money on parts

What happens if you damage the seal? Just leaks oil? And how do you inspector not damaged?

[johnwilson]

Hi - Great video. Do you have a link to the one you mentioned that shows how to remove the transmission?

[postkidofficial]

[StevenChisham]

i'd like to know how to properly open up the transmission and how to bolt it back on. what tension should i be applying?

[andyclemente]

Good video. Hey man. Question I'm replacing my engine in my car. I have the new engine set up and ready. When the engine is in the hoist I'm able to turn the engine over by the bolt on the harmony balancer. But as soon as I connect the engine to the transmission, the engine is locked up, it won't turn, could a torque converter that is not seates probably cause that ?

We need the video on removing the transmission before we can take out the torque converter. Nice video but waiting for the transmission removal video now.

I had bought a torque converter and haven't gotten around to trying to replace it because life. But I realized it doesn't even spin like the one in the vid. It's a block. Seems it may spin internally but external is all welded. Also has a weird noise when I shake it. Like it's loose inside. Now I don't wanna install it.

Okay I have a question I have looked all over the Internet and I cannot find this part I just saw the video you mention it was called a spindle. I still can't find it I'm looking for what you called, it spindle that goes inside the torque converter cuz mine looks like teeth or gears or file down I am rebuilding the engine and if I could replace this that piece of the transmission. I'm not for sure if it's called a spline or output shaft or what I was wondering if you can help me it's a 96 Sonoma automatic l rwd again is the part where the torque converter that goes into the shaft that mounts to the front of the transmission bell housing . Again you said it was called a spline but I cannot find it

[bendy]

great guy i put my transmission in and found out it has a bad torq converter

[jamesdailey]

Do you have to turn the torque converter three times after in and do I have to put the transmission in before I tight in the scrues in the torque converter
