    I took my obs chevy to a shop one time for ball joints and those assholes wanted 500 dollars for only 1 ball joint and it wasnt even what I wanted them to put on there. So I did what any smart 20 something year old would do and learned how to do it all myself so now I don't have to pay outrageous prices. Your videos are great Dan keep it up man!

  • @insertstupidnamehere1881

    There’s a ground strap from the chassis harness to the frame on the drivers side. I ran into the same issue when I lowered my truck. It’s literally at the back of the truck near the bumper. Hope that helps.

    Hay Dan, when installing wheel bearings that castle nut is only supposed to go on snug and then backed off like 1/8 turn. Drivers side looks like you might be replacing rotor and bearings again. Just my opinion. Love watching your builds keep doing your thing man!

  • @daviddeford5067
    @daviddeford5067 3 роки тому

    Take a BFH to the knuckle where the tapered end of the ball joint fits in and it will shock it loose with a couple good hits. No need for a pickle fork and you won't tear the boot if you plan on reusing the ball joint. This also works for tie rod ends.

    When snapped that bolt his expression was the same as mine when I was doing a water pump replacement on my 01 tundra and realized whoever did it before had over torqued the bolt so when I came to undo it she snapped off in my block. Piece of that bolts still stuck in my block but heli coils definitely fixed that shit😅

  • @evanpelkey7864

    A pickle fork is a priceless tool in my opinion. Also this reminded me of when I got sent camaro springs for my 01 Silverado and put it all together without knowing til it was sitting on the lower control arms in my driveway

    Dan, i have a 97 2500 obs. i had the same issue. Im not it'll will fix the problem but, check the 3 way plug that your trailer lights splice in with your tail lights. it should be on the driver side inside of the frame behind the axel. You'll know whatit is when you see it. itll look like the actual trailer plug. i removed mine and it fixed it. Try it an see if that will make a difference. maybe a different situation but its worth looking at. lmk

  • @jamjamjovi
    @jamjamjovi 3 роки тому

    You can hit the spindle around where the ball joint or tie-rod goes in and it will pop it out. That will keep you from mushrooming the threads or tearing the boot with a pickle fork.

  • @dirtydave82
    @dirtydave82 3 роки тому +1

    Pro tip: when removing your wheel lug nuts. Use a star pattern. As you can possibly warp your rotors when releasing the pressure on the wheels in a circle pattern

    • @dirtydave82
      @dirtydave82 3 роки тому

      @ZombieBoy When you loosen them, you should use the star pattern too. The theory is to keep the pressure equal, so the metal will not warp, all 5 or 6 studs and lug nuts will share the same equal pressure to the wheel. Use a torque wrench to tighten them, check the torque specs for your car, look up your car owner's manual.
      Just googled it for you. In text books from tech schools as well. Never seen it happen. But I have always used this method. As it doesn’t really take any longer for me to do. 🤷🏻‍♂️

  • @jamesseymour5144

    If I'm not mistaken there's a white ground wire for the lights running under the spare tire that always causes crazy blinker problems. Might of torn taking the bed off or something

  • @blackhawk32g
    @blackhawk32g 3 роки тому

    Dan to save time when replacing spindle, upper and lower controls, unbolt control arms from frame and leave spindle attached. No need to fight the ball joints that way. It will come out as an assembly. :)

    @dancharron7098 3 роки тому

    Ground wires friend. you need to fix the ground wires after you took the box off you had a wire from the gas tank to the frame and to the body/filler neck. then you have one that goes from the frame to the cross member for the rail mount where the wires connect to the box. might as well also change teh ground strap to the body and engine. and as well change the wires for the Battery. that solves many of the issues on GM trucks. I had a few. From brand new 1988 GMC and used to to 560000K's Snow plowing and all. to a 1996, 03, 07 and soon a new one.
