This is a great tutorial covering the components in an AWD vehicle Terry. I have to say though, I've never heard the term "I had a Jonah's of a time" used in a You Tube video before...very biblical and it sure paints a picture of how hard the front diff removal was!

After all that was removed did you put in a new transmission or is there a new housing you had to put on. Also did you have to get a new driveshaft. I appreciate your channel I have learned a lot from it. In the process of removing the engine but I wanted to make it rear wheel drive.

I know what you went through to get that out its a big pain in the butt, I agree with all you had to say about that job. FYI if you have high mileage the catalytic converter's like to stretch and let the guts lose then that rattle in till that brake apart in to little pieces that will leave tiny pieces of platinum all over the back end of the SUV , and to get the exhaust Y pipe out you have to Jack and support the transmission remove the cross member that supports the transfer case, and finally you can remove that Y pipe also there may be 4 02 sensors that will also have to be unplugged along with the left rear 02 sensor wire leads that run across the cross member that wire will have to be free up as well .:-)

Mike how did this work for you ? My daughter has an 02 trailblazer 4.2 4 wd the bearing plate went and snapped clean around the oil pan mount .. I am gonna try and chisel it out but was wondering if I could use the ends of the cv chart to keep the wheel bearing together I’m pretty sure if you just take the cv shaft out and use nothing behind it will blow the bearing apart since it’s not supported but I also hear autozone lists the 4wd and 2wd as the same bearing
