Very convenient of you to put this video out today. Getting ready to replace my lifter guides with metal ones and replace the lifters while I'm at it. As I'm sure you know, this means my branch tubes need to be moved, and the rear cover must come off. Thank you for showing us how to do things the right way.
@@toomanytoys "the right way" is the one that does the best work, that will last the longest, for the least amount of effort. I have studied a considerable amount of other content on this same subject, many using some similar techniques to yours. Your content is definitely on the high end of quality in comparison to anything else that is out there -- especially including documentation I had to pay for. I think you nailed it this time and you consistently do.
I appreciate your comment. I try to do things (including videos) as best as possible, and the subjects are researched well. My comment goes back to my research career. We think we are on the right path until someone else has a different perspective and shows us what we missed. So I'm always open to other ways, better methods, and that I may be wrong.
….. one thing I’ll add for the DIYers like myself. He had the engine block completely broken down. Most likely you’ll be doing this with the engine still together. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN INSTALLING THE BACK PLATE. You can very easily ruin the HPFP seal at the top if you’re not careful. I pinched mine and had to pull the turbos on my 6.4 diesel to fix my mistake. 🤙🏻
Well, first, this is a 6.0L Second, and maybe due to my lack of 6.4L knowledge, if you are doing a full rebuild, would you not put the HPFP on after the back plate was installed?
What a PERFECT match for my Sunday morning coffee. Hell, might even make a Grilled Cheese or two... ;) Appreciate the upload. I'm drawn to videos that are clearly spoken/explained. Nice clean work, part numbers and a little Theory lesson as well. Yours tick those boxes. See you on the next one! -Adrenacyde
The 6.0 godfather strikes again! Great info as always, J. I feel the moral of this story is that the manual said to put the seal on dry on the OD. so you should always trust the manual nerds at Navistar.....they never ever screw up :U
Oh, they have screwed up a few times. We did those dry seals many times at work and never had a leak. But if you want to use Loctite, it shouldn't be a problem.
Thank you very much for taking the time to make these videos, I’m aware filming something makes assembly take so much longer. I’m about to do the same on my 6.0 as soon as my OEM lifters come in. I will definitely be checking back on the video like many of your other content. Hope to one day see the video of you driving the rig! Eventually…lol.
@@toomanytoys Thanks for the reply, I put the whole plate in the freezer for 4 hours and then tapped it out in two whacks with a rubber mallet. Aluminum shrinks slightly when cooled.
No, I did it dry. Some use Loctite on the outer lip. But seals with this style of grooving I've done elsewhere, also made by National (the OE supplier), said to do them dry.
I very much enjoy watching yours videos, also I will like buy the version 6 of the lift bracket. If it's possible I will like to have and email so I can ZELLE the correct amount of money for the bracket.

Glad I could help, but being my first 6.0, any of this may be 'my way' rather than the right way. LOL

Great video. Ive watched your other videos and seen you write on some of the 6.0 groups, youre very helpful. Thanks for your brilliance @TooManyToys
I appreciate that!
That's the best video out there on installing the RMS! Thanks for sharing with the us.
Thanks Hal. I appreciate it.
Another quality production. 👍🏻
Thanks Pete.
I know I’m not the only watcher standing and applauding your excellent work, narration, and video recording skills. Thank you.
Wow, thank you! sorry for the late reply.
Good deal, thank you for taking the time to make these for us.
My pleasure!
Great Video, you are the best, I like the details.
I appreciate that!
More amazing 6.0L content - thank you!
Glad to provide.
Yet another video extremely well done! Thank you
Thanks Chip.

@@toomanytoys not if he had pulled the transmission just to do a rear main seal and rear cover seal. The 6.4 and 6.0 are the same for those.
@@jeremyandholly2011 Thanks. My approach was towards a full rebuild.

You're welcome! Way much longer!!! Especially if you think you need a better segment when reviewing and have to take things apart.
How did you remove the old rear main seal from the cover please?
I sort of cheated. I left the seal in the cover, pulled the cover completely off, then punched the seal out of the cover.
@@toomanytoys Thanks for the reply, I put the whole plate in the freezer for 4 hours and then tapped it out in two whacks with a rubber mallet. Aluminum shrinks slightly when cooled.
no oil on the outer parts of the crank seal?
