Just wanted to let everyone know this trans that Marshall has been building and making videos showing us all how it’s done, I went up to his house yesterday and we installed the transmission in my 94 lightning it works perfect, when Marshall was test driving it he gave it about half throttle and on the 1-2 shift the truck went sideways when it shifted, this truck finally has the right transmission it deserves, from now on Marshall is the only guy who touch any of my transmissions from now on , Thank you Marshall for taking the time to make my transmission work flawlessly, I’m looking forward to dry weather so I can test drive this bad boy.

Got a chuckle on this comment from the transmission guy: "I don't pull it down at 60 miles an hour or anything, but I'll use my engine braking to slow my truck down all the time, even if I'm not Towing something. That way, I'm not wearing my brakes out as much." I'll choose to wear my brakes before my transmission any day. Brakes are easy and cheap to change. Same on my manual transmission cars. I'll brake before downshifting to slow down. Syncros are not expensive, but a PITA to change. I only use downshifting to slow a vehicle on long downhills so I don't overheat my brakes.

All good man we all have different driving habits ! I have always used my manual downshifting capabilities since I was a teenager. When a person has to slam on the brakes to avoid collision/animal/ RED LIGHT just ahead downshifting actually gives me not only braking Control but the Transmission Control as well. If done PROPERLY it doesn’t hurt the transmission at all. I have a 2020 Chevy “Trail Boss” with 25 k miles on it. It has a brake pad wear indicator on the dash display that says 92% Rear brake left/ 89% front pad left. If the calculations are correct I’m looking at 200k on a set of brakes And the way I drive even towing I expect 200k out of the transmission as well 🤞! We’ll see how that plays out but I’m confident !Good Stuff thanks for the comment

It was having a problem (slow in forward, fine in reverse) and he had figured out the issue. Since he was in there, he decided to take the whole thing apart and give it a good cleaning. A week later he was in the ICU after a serious motorcycle crash and is still there today, only semi-conscious with a severe brain injury. Long story short...I have lots of friends who are mechanically inclined, but nobody knows where he was in the process. I know he was watching your videos, but again, not sure where he was.

Yeah that outer direct piston seal they change to a “d” ring instead of a lip seal. I have never put that “d” ring in any of my builds. I just don’t deem it necessary to use it. I have never had a problem or a comeback related to that seal so I just use the factory lip seal! Either way it’s a preference thing and not necessary to use. It doesn’t raise pressure it’s just a somewhat stouter seal but like I said I’ve never had a problem just using the factory lip seal. Thanks for the comment!

Austin, There are quite a few upgrades to do on a 4R100 for heavy towing. Quick list, Borg Warner or better clutches such as Alto, Kolene steels, H/D 45 element 2nd sprag, 6 pinion front and rear planets. Also you can add an extra clutch in the forward and direct packs for more torque and load capacity. Transtar sells a thinner direct pressure plate to add an extra clutch, and remove the wave in the forward to add an extra clutch. At least a steel O/D planet 4 or 6 pinion, Transgo "Tugger" Kit a must, Center support snap -ring upgrade a good idea, Sonnax Line to Lube "pressure regulator valve" a must, Tig welded Coast Clutch Drum if you want it bullet proof, NEW Pump Gears, 1 piece case bushing and most likely all new bushings, Spiral O/D snap ring, H/D Coast Clutch Drum snap ring, Aluminum Front Lube Drainback valve a must, H/D external transmission cooler a must, High quality converter a must and PWM delete to ON/OFF Transgo Lock-up valve" recommended. Set up ALL clutches on the "tighter" side of the spec to avoid delayed engagements. A lot of it comes down to a "Rock Solid" rebuild (all parts new or like new condition, bushings/bearings/cleanliness) These are great transmissions when rebuilt properly.

You are great at explaining in layman terms, embarrassing question to you is when I’m towing my 14,400lb trailer with my 2000 f350 7.3, I just leave my overdrive on all the time, the only time I turn it off is to down shift to slow down. I’ve had people tell me not to tow with it on? Am I hurting the transmission?
@marshallsanders5672
5 ай бұрын
That is a really good question actually. When towing you should turn off O/D for a few reasons. The main reason is with O/D cancelled the Overrun clutch comes on which helps protect the small/ vulnerable overrun roller clutch in the overdrive section. When you take off in O/D the roller clutch has to hold all the weight of the truck/trailer which puts a lot of strain on it. With the O/D cancelled the overrun clutch comes on so now you have the roller clutch and the overrun clutches themselves taking all the weight. Second the computer raises line pressure slightly to help hold the clutches on tighter beings your in a towing situation. Lastly O/D is the hardest gear to hold the clutches on so you should keep it off most of the time and just turn it on when there isn’t a lot of strain on the drivetrain meaning when your on flat road and just cruising. Your friends come correct on this one! The biggest thing with towing is the driver behind the wheel and just being mindful of how hard the transmission is working and manually shifting when necessary. My”importance of gearing” video talks about this a lot. Not my most watched video but some of the best information on this subject. When I talk about the low roller clutch/ low reverse clutches it’s the same concept as the O/D section in your 4R100. That is a LOT of weight so it would be advantageous to take off in manual low as well. Long answer hope I explained it well enough to understand it! Thanks for the comment!

40:25 you talk about flexing. There may be a reason for this - when you have a flexing part, there is always a rebound and this will additionally fasten the pressurisation of the circuit - important to not let the clutch slip too much after it begins to couple and create the back pressure.

Hey Marshall I have a 2002 4r100 that burnt the forward clutches out of it. Upon teardown I found it had 9 check balls like 95 and down E4ODs. The extra was in the trough that looks like a Christmas tree. The separator plate definitely wasn't set up to have a check ball in this location. I'm wondering if this starved the forward clutches of pressure. But I can't find any diagrams to validate my suspicions
@marshallsanders5672
Жыл бұрын
Ethan, Interesting someone put that ball in there, upon a little digging I don't believe that has any correlation to the forward clutch feed circuit directly. It appears to be in the circuits of the Low/Rev. Modulator,3-4 shift valve area. When I am in question about something like this I always Try to follow where the fluid goes and see what passages they connect to following the circuit from the bathtub into the case and back up through the valve body and so on if that makes sense. Without having it in front of me I can't do that but if you go slow you should be able to determine the exact path of oil away from that trough. Definitely try to find the reason for the burnt Forward aside from the checkball missinstall though. Hard seals, Worn out forward piston, low fluid ? Let me know what you come up with and ill dig deeper if need be ! All the comments like these help other people with issues like this so its nice to see the resolve comments as well.

Sounds like your good. If your confident you built it right and “nothing” is creating microscopic metal then your good for 20-30,000 k miles. If any doubt then service it like you said after 2000 miles and check the metal in the pan and on top of the filter, there will be metal it’s all about How much, and what type of metal you find. If it’s clean with minimal metal after 2000 k miles then you should be good to 50k. As far as the fluid goes just use a good newer synthetic fluid such as dex IV or Mercon V and your good there. The Valvoline Dex/Merc is fine !

@marshallsanders5672
Жыл бұрын
Herman, It is definitely the torque converter clutch applied because that’s the only thing that will stall the engine. With that said oddly enough the most common problem I’ve seen with that other than digging deep into the transmission is the filter falls down just enough to unseal completely from the pump intake causing it to suck air and not be able to RELEASE the Torque Converter Clutch properly. Do you have the correct filter? Is the filter in there ? As big of a part it is I have seen people just plain miss putting it in ! Even if it’s correct this can still happen. The fix for it is is PEEN some dimples in the pan to hold it UP in the pump. I would first pull the pan and see if the filter comes down with the pan or whether it stays in the pump. If all that is fine then it’s time to dig into the TCC hydraulic circuit and figure it out. TCCSolenoid stuck on/TCC apply valve in the pump stuck on/ bad Torque Converter etc. This should get you going in the right direction! Thanks for watching be sure to check out my TCC/PWM explained video as that video explains Torque Converter Clutch operation in Great detail !

@@hermanjones4124 Herman, Yes low fluid could cause that also, TCC Release gets what you might say Priority after the Pump gears begin to pump and just after the pressure regulator gets fed oil is sent to the release side of the Torque Converter Clutch. If the pump is starving for oil similar to the filter not being in all the way the TCC Clutch doesn't release properly. Also what I've seen is usually the first clutch to burn up when the fluid is low on transmissions is the forward clutch so that would explain a lot ! Was the fluid low? Why was it low ? That's not making sense to me other than you just didn't put enough in. In a case like this I do my best not to assume anything and I would go through the Lock-up system VERY thoroughly . Including splining the input shaft down in the converter and making sure the clutch isn't STUCK ON Mechanically. The Input shaft must spin free of the converter housing !

Some may put in the Transgo accumulator transition valves but not totally necessary and or the Sonnax “Stiffining” plates between the transition valves and the accumulator piston but that’s it. I will usually go as far as flat sanding the valve body with 320 grit sandpaper on a flat piece of marble to ensure no cross leaks. And the #1 thing that MUST be done is completely disassembling that valve body and making sure the valves are “DEAD” free in there bores as I show in the video. That’s it !

There is only 3 different ones for these transmissions. 89-94 early thick wall connector which has the diodes in the solenoid pack. 95-97 late which has a thin wall connector/diodes in the computer and not in the solenoid pack itself. These two packs have an On/Off lock-up solenoid which has a brown snout and ball pintle just like the shift solenoids. 98-up 4R100 has a PWM lock-up solenoid and has a white snout with three holes not brown with the visible ball pintle like the early On/Off solenoid. I explain this in both my solenoid pack test videos. The E4OD solenoid pack testing video and my 4R100 solenoid pack testing video.

Please help!!! Tested my valve body with tips from your last video. All solenoids seem good mechanically and electronically. My O/D is in constant off, no light. 1st and 2nd manual are just one gear, (2nd I believe), and when in (constant) O/D, it’s stuck in 3rd. MLPS and TPS tested good. No broken wires in trans harness. Can you help me understand where to look?

Lots going on there. What year transmission is it. This is a case where you must scan it and read ALL that the computer is Seeing and attempting to do. MLPS,O/D cancel switch,Shift Solenoid activation meaning what gear is the computer commanding etc. The O/D light always off is a red flag for sure possible the switch itself is bad but must see what it’s doing by scanning it.

There you go asking the tough question! I have never used the TRANSGO Tugger kit before. I don’t like judging kits I don’t have Personal road miles experience with. I have always used a combination of superior and sonnax parts in all my units. Let’s just say I like to use the BEST specific parts those two companies offer and I have had great success with that. With that said the Tugger kit is a very well thought out kit with a few exceptions, I used the sonnax “line to lube valve” , the O/D metal lube relief valve in the stator, the reinforcement plates in the accumulator spring retainer clips, the 1 piece sonnax case bushing. ETC. which are all necessary parts in my opinion. so as you see in my opinion there is no best out there. I use the best of all the kit makers and kinda make my own if that makes sense. The Tugger kit at this point seems to be the best for towing and manually shifting though. With the additional other brand parts I mentioned. I hope that clarifies “My Opinion” for you. As you got the long answer on that one! Great question!

Nylon bore brushes are the best for sure! They don’t injure the bore and clean very well. A little trans fluid and spin the brush in the bore by hand. Also in serious situations I use 600 and 1200 grit sand paper wrapped around a screwdriver and spin in the bore with transmission fluid. It’s tedious but it works!

Well, a bit of a loaded question because there are so many things involved in diagnosing particular transmission problems! Is it just a forward delay? Once its in gear does it slip at all during take-off and or upshifting? Any difference in engagement when you cancel O/D Button and or pull it down into manual low? Any difference between being hot or cold? Putting a pressure gauge on and checking line pressure is a simple but all important test whenever a pressure issue is suspect (70psi at idle and should rise to 150 or so at full stall throttle in drive) Does the fluid smell burnt or is it discolored at all? A lot of transmission diagnostics comes down to a process of elimination because any one particular problem can be caused by multiple different reasons. Check all these things and write down the answers and go from there!

Ok gotcha sounds like everything is normal as far as the trans possibly the forward clutches are a bit loose in there clearance. One thing you can do is remove the spring in the Forward engagement valve in the auxiliary valve body. I show this at about 17:30 min into this particular video! I remove the spring on All my E4OD/4R100 rebuilds to help with delayed engagements because these transmissions are known for delayed engagements. It is simple and effective might wanna give that a try first. @@user-ri9hb6th1w

Most likely not line pressure because the 1-2 is ok but can't rule out a pressure spike. Not knowing what they did to the valve body it probably just needs more tuning or detuning for that matter. I'm assuming you don't have a full shift kit meaning pressure regulator mods or any aftermarket tuners on this transmission? Tuning the accumulator valvebody is not an exact science and many times its just a matter of tuning it until you are satisfied with the shifts. The only 2 things internal to the transmission that effects shift feel is line pressure and the accumulator valvebody so its 1 or the other. Also assuming the clutch pack is in good shape as well.

Sounds like you have come across a trans that someone has swapped wrong parts out. I’ve always known 89 early/89 late, 90 to 95 and 96 up late E4OD/ 4R100 with a few variances with each of the 4. I don’t want to steer you wrong but it seems to me f6 bodies and plates will work together and f9 bodies and plates will work together as a general rule. What year trans are you building? I will do some research myself to get to the bottom of that one.

I'm building an e4od for a 1990 f250 5.8l. I have all the guts from a unknown year 4r100. The 1990 trans was a rebuild I bought 10 or so yrs ago. It had all 4r100 internals upon tear down exception being the thrust washer on the output shaft vs the bearing on 4r100 and the valve body and accumulator casting are an e9. While the diesel trans I have is a Virgin teardown all f6 castings case and valve bodies. I do see some differences in the channel casting of the 2 cases. I susspect the serperator plate and valve body are what account for these differences, as I also susspect all the aply and release passages are the same. I would like to use the f6 casting just because this trans was very clean and debris free all clutches, band and hard parts in excellent shape. My e9 casting has had a butt ton of metal and debris forced through it while I haven't found any valving to be in bad shape in either 1 I figure the e9 casting is the one worn the most.

Marshall, I’m trying to figure out if my PWM 4R100 tranny solenoid pack is working. Saw your video on the E4OD solenoid pack. But I have the PWM pack. Should the solenoid that controls the overdrive (white top) click like the others? I have a new rebuilt one and my old one and neither “click”. Should it actuate “click” like the other’s? How do I test that circuit?
@marshallsanders5672

Wayne The PWM sol isn’t spring loaded like the others so depending what position the pintle is in is whether you’ll hear a faint click or not. As far as testing it just cut a piece of hose just long enough to seal the entire snout of the solenoid and your air blower and test it like the others. Power to it and no Power to it and it should blow through and seal just like the other shift solenoids. I didn’t have a PWM sol. At the time I did the video and can’t go back and edit the video. Hindsight I should have talked about that more. My bad hope this helps !
