The creator points out actual wear condition at 4,000 hours (gear teeth, bearings, range selector forks) and notes where these transmissions commonly fail. Useful for owners diagnosing reverser or range-selection issues, not for shoppers wanting a buying overview.
Appears to be a mechanic or shop owner documenting an actual transmission rebuild, sharing hands-on technical observations rather than sales content.
The range selector forks usually break and are the common failure point, though this unit's gear teeth and bearings were in excellent shape at 4,000 hours.
