*Keypoints;*

*Transmission Teardown:* Let's take a look at the damage to this 5R55E transmission.
*Parts Overview:* Here are all the new parts we'll be using to rebuild this transmission, including bands, bushings, filters, and an overhaul kit.
*Normal Wear and Tear:* Even a perfectly functioning transmission will show some signs of wear and tear.
*Sprag Failure:* The sprag is a one-way clutch that can flip over if there is too much clearance, causing the transmission to stop moving.
*Clutch Disassembly:* Watch as we carefully disassemble the forward drum and examine the damaged clutches and springs.
*Friction Direction:* Make sure to install the frictions with the grain facing the correct direction.
*Lip Seal Explanation:* Learn how lip seals work to apply pressure to the clutches.
*Clearance Check:* We'll use a feeler gauge to check the clearance between the clutch plates and make sure everything is within spec.
*Drum Assembly:* We'll assemble the forward, direct, and overdrive drums, making sure all the components are properly lubricated and installed.
*Band Installation:* Installing the bands can be tricky, but we'll show you a technique that makes it easier.
*Servo Installation:* We'll install the servos and adjust the bands to the correct specifications.
*Valve Body Installation:* The valve body is the brain of the transmission. We've already installed a Transgo shift kit and torqued it to the correct specifications.
*Final Assembly:* We'll install the valve body, filter, and pan, and then show you how to install the parking pawl.
*Range Sensor Alignment:* The range sensor needs to be properly aligned in neutral to ensure proper shifting.
