Jack of All Trades, pretty good at some of them!

Through this channel I will share projects I have done and will be doing. These projects range from deisel truck repairs, motorcycle repairs,, car repairs, carpentry, masonry, plumbing, and electrical. Also farming and animal husbandry. Told ya it was almost everything! I'm always looking for help and advise on prjwcts as well so this will hopefully be an interactive channel.

    We also text vehicle before we disconnect the battery. However when we place from drive to reverse we do get “grinding “ noise. I don’t think this is good for transmission/transfer case. Is it safe to say that this “extra” test is not necessary?

    To make it easier loosen the lower ball joint and take out shock bolt then you can lift the hub with the upper ball joint out of the way and get the cv out much easier that way and no real struggle compared to taking each ball joint nuts off.

    Is there any hack to just forcing the air go out dash/face vents only? Mine is only blowing out floor and defrost vents. I don't think i have ability to remove everything you did to replace it. But if there's a way to rig it to only go out dash vents I'd appreciate any feedback or tips. Thank you.

    If you disconnect batteries, the truck will still run. Do you leave transmission in N and just shut truck off ? I went to 3 GMC dealerships and not 1 of them knew how to flat tow. I shredded 1 transmission so far and i dont want to do another. I will try what you said here and see what happens.

    You’ll have to try and move the front sprocket to get it unstuck. It’s easier on bikes or quads that have manual transmissions. Just put it in 1st and push till it brakes free. Obviously this is for an engine that was working fine and not seized due to sitting out for years and/or engine overheat and the piston melting or some such thing.

However, when I put in a new battery, no electric whatsoever. Doesnt even show the ignition light. Any idea of the best place to start to trouble shoot the electric issue? What would you suggest for first step before I dig too far into it?

    1. Start the truck and apply parking brake 2. Put in neutral 3. Put transfer case in neutral 4. Release parking brake and shift to drive and reverse to test that transfer case is in neutral. Should not go anywhere! 5. Put transmission in park. 6. Release parking break. 7. Turn off truck. 8. WITHOUT foot on brake, press engine start button for 3 secs. 9. Make sure parking brake light is OFF and steering wheel is free! 10. GET OUT OF TRUCK AND REMOVE NEGATIVE BATT CABLE. You are ready to roll!
