Well I finally rebuild my T5

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Well I did it. Yesterday I succesfully rebuilt my T-5 and I couldnt be more happy with it. I replaced all synchro's some bearings, 1st gear sleeve/bearing support, and first gear. (Pretty badly damaged and chewed up. But now its like a brand new trans. And I would like to thank the two ppl who gave me the .pdf files to do it . Not too hard at all, just time consuming. I will be sure to post up some pics of the damage tomorrow.

good job. i have heard that it is not easy.

might you know where to find a pdf on how to rebuild a 4R70W?

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Its actually pretty easy if your organized and once you get over the fact that your going to have **** everywhere so I recoment a nice sized table completly clear. GreenGT I will send it now. Check it about 5 minutes after this post.

Could I get a copy of the .pdf's also?? My email is [email protected]

My 3rd gear is starting to make some nasty noises, so I figure it's gonna go for a vacation soon.

How long did it take you?

How much did you invest (total)?

any specialty tools required?

That is awesome... I will do this when my trans gets a little worse, for now I am making it live by frequent fluid changes.

Alltogether, just under $200 much better than just buying a used one, that who knows if it would need rebuilding anyway. But it took about 8 hours only because we ran into trouble when I found out I needed to replace first gear, first gear bearings, and first gear bearing sleeve and first gear detents. Alltogether though if you replace synchros only and seals you should be at about $120 and clean all the bearings very well and you will be great. Just need a gear puller as far as special tools go, and you should be fine.

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Well any tranny especially after years of abuse needs rebuilding every once in a while. I have done t5's t45's and t56's. They all wear with time not just t5's.

Did you just do a stock rebuild or use an upgraded gear set? What about the gear puller? Is that a tool Autozone or Advanced Auto rents? When you get time could you shoot those pdf's my way at [email protected]


*EDIT* Did you happen to take any pics along the way?

 

[mustang6tee8]

Could you send it to [email protected]

I might have to rebuild mine this year and want to be prepared! Thanks

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

I used the stock gearset just with better bearings and Kevlar lined synchro rings. Has been taking a beating ever since to (knock on wood) has seen about no kidding 80 track passes with hard launches. Still shifts ever so beautifully.
