    The exhaust bolts are a problem no matter what. I've done tons of these. I just cut the crossover pipe out and weld it back unless the manifold gaskets are leaking. Also taking the nuts and bolts after the trans is out is way easier. If you read this and are about to take this just cut the exhaust. If you can't weld a short drive to a muffler shop and 25$ later is the way.

  • @gaojen3365
    @gaojen3365 2 роки тому

    Jared, I know this project did not go the way you wanted. But it better educated me about a car situation, that I have questioned since I made it. I once had a Tahoe just like this one, but in beige. One day, while reversing, I lost the reverse gear with a *TWING*. I drove it for a couple months after that, always careful of where I parked, until I started having battery trouble. The wife and I had started to consider trading it in on a newer 300 or Charger, but then we found a V6 Magnum and the deal was made. For years I drove by the dealership where I traded the vehicle in, and always saw it in the lot, which I always thought was odd considering the high trade in value they gave me on it, and how they convinced me they could turn it around... but never did, because when the vehicle was finally gone, it was only because the dealership had folded. I am smiling on that deal a little more now... so Thank You

  • @americansmark
    @americansmark 2 роки тому

    Neat tip I learned for moving heavy engine and drivetrain parts from under the car when you're on jack stands:
    Get a cheap baking sheet from the dollar store and screw a bolt or thick screw into one end. Wrap a piece of Paracord over the bolt then bend the bolt over to keep the Paracord on it. You can then lower parts onto the sheets and easily slide it on garage floors or driveways with almost no resistance.

  • @sparkplug1018
    @sparkplug1018 2 роки тому

    I think you made the right call on replacing the trans, but the sun shell isn't the only thing that can cause the issue you were having. For reverse to work in these units, the reverse clutch pack (which transfers through the sun shell) and the low/reverse pack need to work.
    Its possible the low/reverse clutch pack was burnt up while someone was trying to get the truck out of the mud. Going between reverse and manual low and still being stuck can do that.
    The ratcheting noise was the parking pawl trying and failing to engage on the rear ring gear, either the pawl is worn out or the rod got bent.
    Great video as always Jared, love seeing these.

    @americansmark 2 роки тому

    Forgot to add until researched a part: if you find bolts that's really rounded off like that, weld a new larger nut onto the stripped nut and then remove it. We've had to do this on farm equipment a few times when they just got so rusted on that they stripped rather than break loose. Lots of wd40 and a larger nut welded on make a world of difference, as does a good battery powered impact wrench. Air is better for a shop, but those Rigid Octane batteries on their 1/2" impact wrench will break anything loose. I used mine (with the 9.0Ah Octane battery) to break a 10" lag bolt loose from a conex container. It resisted a 24" breaker bar with a 4 foot cheater bar but the Octane broke it loose like it was a screw in softwood.

    I worked in an exaust shop. I battled so many manifold bolts....ugh its so frustrating. For real the best thing I ever used was called a nut splitter. About a 3 ft long attachment for an air hammer( they also make them you can just thread in a bolt but they suck) it looks like a mini pickle fork. Splits the nut in half and it also mushrooms one side so a socket has something to grab. I hope it helps with the next one b/c it litterally changed my life when I bought one.

Pulled all the seats, door panels, and carpet out to clean them. Got the Dodge Avenger for $1500 from a bank who loaned me $2500 on it so I could fix all the issues, oil leaks, full brakes set, two door panels needed, center console replacement and major cleaning. Drive it for a year and traded it in for $4500 on my wife car which we got a deal on at the start of Covid when people were not buying cars. I'd like to have that as my truck to drive to work and take my son fish in. He "can't" ride in old hardbody pickup be his car seat doesn't lock in. But the truck was $100 lol.

    Oh I know all about trying to be patient and not getting frustrated working on a vehicle. I did rear struts for the first time. Couldnt get the old ones out until I removed part of the rear suspension. Then had trouble getting that part of the suspension back on.
    Then while getting one strut to line up with the wheel half of the strut the other side was way off and had trouble realigning that. So at 7pm on a Saturday part of my vehicle was apart in my garage and wanted to get my Challenger back inside for the night. So it got frustrating at well 6:30pm and took over an hour to try to realign the strut despite probably not using the best tools. Had a mini floor jack, sledgehammer, some flathead screwdrivers and some dowels and it finally got done.
    I was worn out from that. If I didn't need to move my vehicles around I would have just stopped at 7 but well frustration and determination kicked in. But got them in and the alignment was a little off but nothing that made the alignment guy say what!? 👍
    I also hate dealing with stripped out bolts. Especially when those are usually not bad unless like you said they used the wrong size. You can get the proper socket for $3-4 at most hardware stores. It just makes sense to get the right one so you don't strip them out.

    Hey Jared, I've just completed a big vehicle project getting a 2001 Subaru Outback on the roads here in Melbourne, Australia. Been a tough project that took 18months to complete, but yesterday I finally got it registrated and now able to drive it wherever I want - well??? not really due to the lockdown rules here in the most lockdown city for the world but atleast I can drive to shops to get things etc. I did this all in my driveway due to not having a workshop and yep it was on stands so I know how tough it can be. But when you keep going, you can get to the end like I am now - doing driving along the roads again. (Haven't had a car for over 8 years due to my tough budget however I have to say the last few days and driving kms have been awesome!!!!!) I wish I had a workshop...one day.. yours looks great!!!!!

    I feel every bit of this. Essentially if not exactly the same setup on my '97 Z71 1500. Not the toughest job, but laying on the ground to do it is the worst. At least you have a NICE floor. Beats gravel in the back any day.

    Just like my $250 94 Ford Ranger XLT extended cab 4.0L Manual... with a 99 parts truck that has pretty much been a front end swap for the 94, as well as doors, and now on to the suspension issues, which are drivers front spindle/brake caliper (all 1 piece), inner tie rod, steering shaft, possibly new steering box, shocks (all 4), control arm bushings, rear spring bushings, drivers rear axle seal (with unknown axle that isnt original and no ID plate) and after all that is done, a new windshield and get rid of ancient purple window tint

    What a great say to break in the new shop lol. That water pump was SMOKED!!! Those bearings were definitely GONE! Exhaust manifold bolts are a pain in the ass on anything older/ rusty as is, let alone with someone being a jackass rounding off the fasteners. Was going to suggest a small cutoff wheel but access is tough. Glad you got all that done laying on your back. Its truly not fun no matter what, and when your accustomed to using a lift it'll definitely make you miss it lol.
