Transmissions are one of the things that enthusiasts seem most hesitant to build on their own. Whether you are talking about automatic or manual transmissions, and whether a newbie or the most experienced hot rodder, most are not willing to rebuild their own. But can you save real money by doing a rebuild yourself? And can you learn enough from YouTube videos to do the rebuild yourself? With the price of having a transmission done, it might be the only option for some folks. Watch Project Farm talk about their kit and start this transmission rebuild right here.
Video Description:
Did I waste a bunch of money upgrading my old pickup or should I have spent that money on a new pickup? Before the upgrades, the truck accelerated from 0-60 in 17.08 seconds. Towing 10,000 pounds, the truck accelerated from 0-60 in over 45 seconds. Also, the truck is unable to hold highway speed towing 10,000 pounds climbing a 3-degree grade.
I requested a collaboration with Power Driven Diesel in Cedar City, Utah. A big “thank you” to Will, Todd, Myer, Griffith, Reed, Levi, Pedro, and the rest of the team at Power Driven Diesel for their role in this review. In part 1 of 2, I travel out to Power Driven Diesel for the upgrades. I do not accept sponsorships, and I paid for all of the parts, fluids, etc used to upgrade the engine. In part 2, I rebuild the transmission.
I paid for all of the parts used to upgrade the transmission. I did not and do not receive any form of commission or financial benefit from the sale of Power Driven Diesel parts or services. Here are the links to the parts I purchased for the upgrades. I used 055 delivery valves and not the 025 listed in the engine upgrade kit. I highly recommend calling Power Driven Diesel’s customer support team to discuss upgrades. They are friendly and very helpful.
