    This was the first project I tackled on my XJ. Drained the transmission fluid, dropped the pan, new filter and gasket. It was really messy and I dropped my favorite hat into the drain pan with the old fluid during the process, but..... my exhaust didn’t fall off on the way to the part store 😂

    I found that if I started the car, applied the brake and put it into all of the gears a few times, the transmission would tighten up and not slip. A racing transmission guy told me that the seals in that transmission dry out and and lose flexibility. He said what I was doing was swelling the seals and preventing slippage. His price to repair this was $5000. So I still play the start up procedure game. Good times in the ZJ.

    If I'm not mistaken I believe those trans bolt and nuts are only supposed to be torqued down to between 8 and 12 foot pounds which really isn't a lot, you do with a hand Driver quite easily

    • @ProjectDanH
      @ProjectDanH  3 роки тому

      yes, I think this one was 13-15 foot pounds.

  • @stanthology
    @stanthology 4 роки тому +2

    23:54 That oversized looking fitting on the end of that metal tube is a "check valve". It will eventually get plugged up with debris from friction clutches as the transmission ages. It won't let trans fluid circulate through your cooler, and you might say to yourself, "I have a trans cooler, why is my fluid burned black and why does it keep popping out of overdrive?" Well the answer is, the trans is popping itself out of overdrive because the oil temp sensor in the trans is working to protect itself. So, what you gotta do is cut that check valve out of that line, flare the tube a little like my man here did and you will be good to go. (after you change the black burned fluid for nice new red fluid) I found this out on one of the jeep forums). I was pulling a horse trailer. My trans kept popping out of overdrive, I had to put it in neutral, shut off the engine, this re-sets the trans. Re-start the engine and go a little farther. Not fun on the highway!

    The "cork" gasket actually isn't bad. You do have to be methodically (near) perfect with torque specs when installing. Also it is highly recommended to use a very thin amount of high temp chemical resistant rtv. Very thin amount. Also, used blue loctite (not red) to hold torque long term. If not, you will have to tighten 2 more times again over "so many miles" to complete proper totqueing.

    • @ProjectDanH

      its better to have no thermostat at all then a blocked or stuck thermostat. Engines run best at a specific temp, you want it to heat up and then the thermostat opens too cool and keep it at its operating temp... with out a thermostat you may not reach optimal running temp, but you shouldn't over heat. So in short.. yes lol.. you should be ok without a thermostat

Still did it, then suddeny a few days later ran perfect, and still does after several months. Go figure. Must be one of those Jeep Things.....except it's really a Chrysler Thing. The A-500 Torque Flite ain't no AW4. Very sensitive animals, they are. Now replacing the steering box, all susp bushings, and a total brake job. If it wasn't a clean old rig, i'd get rid of it, but I must admit, I can see why so many were sold, and it gets me to the top of the ridges just fine.

Then of course forgot!!! And I’m not telling you this story or coming up with this theory because it happened to me. But it actually did !!
    Month after I don’t know going through a case of transmission fluid. My son looked at me and says dad maybe we didn’t tighten the screws tight enough.
    Yeah so that happened. We be JEEPIN!!!!!

      The only stock trans cooler is integrated into the radiator. (On my ZJ, V8s with a tow package might have an OEM trans cooler) The one I installed is an independent cooler mounted in front of the AC condenser. Thanks for watching!

    It's gonna leak again. Chrysler transmissions from that generation were designed to seal with silicone only. Never use a gasket there. Also, the 42RE, like the 42FE has oiling issues where the oiling holes were too small. Hence the notorious failures in all of those transmissions. The only fix I know of is to tear it apart and drill the holes to 5/16' when you're rebuilding it.

    • @ProjectDanH
