Rebuilding a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali that even came with that new truck smell! Part 1
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
It is time for me to commit to a new truck after my 2 year test drive of the Dirtnali. This could be the last truck I own and I am ok with that. I wanted a white, 17-19 Sierra Denali diesel with black interior and a sunroof and believe it or not, that is not an easy order to fill. Somehow I found it and the fact that it only had 12,000 miles on it was a huge bonus. If you are wondering why the 17-19 since the 15-16 looked the same, it is because the newer ones came with the L5P Duramax instead of the LML. It should be a fairly easy repair and hopefully not too expensive since no airbags deployed but there are always surprises on rebuilds.

On the left lower ball joint. Inspect the steering knuckle taper, it is common in this type of crash for the ball joint stud to stretch and oval out the steering knuckle taper. While things will tighten up, the stud isn't being held firmly and will flex / break after a while. Oval track racers don't seem to understand this leading to a second crash down the road.

Waiting another week to be entertained by your next video. Until then I'll have to rely on some rum and diet coke.

I'm so glad that the pile is back, together with a lot of handy tools you are using. It is a beautiful build, Scott. I'll follow this build with a lot of interest because I like the way you build it and document it a lot.
Thanks for posting. Appreciate the dry humor with no pageantry; and the lesson as well.
My night just got better. It's a new vehcor video of a GM truck!!
Talk about "can do"! You are a joy to watch and listen to, and I wish you good luck with this new to you truck.
I have learned a ton from you , love your content , i have watched practically every video while im at work, keep up the good work , and please don't stop making videos. awesome!
Dude seriously...I am so sorry for thinking I thought I've seen some dirt in a truck frame. You Sir are the Master of finding the dirtiest of dirty!
Your videos are so enjoyable. No distracting music, lots of info and facts, good explanation and visuals, dry humour, excellent!
I've learned my lesson with jack stands, now I use a cut off from a timber, its 12x12x12 block, and then any other height needed I put some 2x6 cutoffs on top, doesn't matter if I'm on concrete or mud, it holds, and if the vehicle were to move there's a good chance the block is still holding it up
Scott, you are a very funny man, when you are repairing your projects. I love watching you every Friday, and you make me laugh, with your comments. You are one on the only on U Tube for repairing cars and trucks. That I love watching. Keep up the great work. I also love your Chevy Trucks.

I like how you put the parts/pieces back together and then lay them on the trailer so that they don't walk away plus you don't have to think really hard when putting them back on. I do that a lot and some guys used to rib me for taking too long.

Aw-rite Scott! Dirtnali 2.0 Build Friday❗️ Ya gotta love it‼️
"Our control arm's in the right spot. Our frame's in the right spot" I bet that's a relief, there's nothing worse than finding out the frame's on the top of the body instead of underneath it... ;) Nice truck, it's a shame it wont stay nice for long in the Illinois winters. I live in Terre Haute and try to avoid Illinois rust as much as I can, Indiana's rust is bad enough but Illinois rust is something special.
Looks like you found your ideal dream truck this time. Be sure not to sell it. Looking forward to seeing it rebuilt. All the best from Queensland Australia.
