@@bossadamsgarage Impact gun, Son. You can spray all of the crap you want on there but you best be willing to wait a good long time for it to penetrate enough to matter any if you're gonna muscle it out. Any decent impact gun will zip it right out of there. When you're torquing things down that require more than 1 fastener I'd recommend that you sneak up on the specific torque in increments evenly rather than hammering the fasteners down to torque spec. A lot less chance of pinching a gasket or bending something. With your cover for instance, set your torque wrench for 20 ft.lb or so and torque them all, then 25, and then finish at 30. If you're doing a set of heads you may want to start at 30 or 40 and go up 20 ft/lb each pass.

I have to do this to my '96 Chevy Silverado and you just made it look very easy. It just started leaking like 3 weeks ago I've noticed. I usually check my fluids once a month and when I check my fluids I also check underneath where the transmission is for any possible leaks hopefully there's none and I also check the rear differential for leaks and this is how I noticed it was dripping slowly. Great video and the gaskets are very cheap. What type of gasket did you use it looks like a fel-Pro? I was thinking of going with a fel-Pro gasket because a lot of people have good things to say about them.
@bossadamsgarage
Жыл бұрын
Yes it was a fel-pro. I prefer fel-pro and good name brands when it comes to the gaskets. There is plenty of cheaper options out there on amazon but I felt that it was necessary to go the name brand route. I got the gasket link in the description if you wanna pick it up.

What should I do? And I don't know how much fluid is supposed to go in there? Also if I change the fluid in the rear differential, should I change the front fluid as well???

Heat or some pb blaster might help get that bolt to unseize. Just make sure when you're trying to loosen it you take your time and work it slowly. Changing both at the same time is probably not a bad idea. I only did the rear in this video because I had already done my front not long before the video.

@bossadamsgarage
11 ай бұрын
haha well depending on how well kept the truck was, it could either be a laundry list or simple tweaks. I would first start with the basic maintenance (air filter, oil, fluid levels). Then I'd step it up and change the plugs, wires, rotor button, and cap. Once you knock those out I would recommend the fuel filter. After all that, then you can kinda listen out for what could be probable issues. But doing that stuff should get that truck running right. To top things off, Id also run mid or premium gas. If the motor hasn't been apart in years, its a good idea to run higher octane gas to help get some of those carbon deposits out.
