I'm no professional mechanic but I'm not scared to jump into things. I use RU-vid for a lot of information and would like to give some back. Let my mistakes help your project go easier.
The first tip wirh break ehile on the ground never heard before im young nd change a million tires but never thought of that thats that truck dad wisdom 😂😂😂
I found this link for the torque specs on the front diff. Plugs. But i do agree with you when you stated go snug, then slightly past it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f5U-BvcCZN0.htmlsi=A8t3HRsG1hITgpQD
I found this link for the torque specs on the rear diff. drain plug. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ostQyiNpewg.htmlsi=VqM_YsKPh04yLRhX He states 52 ft.-lbs At the 1:45 second mark
Hey i just replaced 2 new front wheel bearings that came with speed sensors..now no signal found feim new speed sensors and abs ,service 4x4 and trac control lights on..heeeeellllllllp lol
I've had this same issue on my truck for a couple of months now and it's been intermittent. First thing the mechanic told me was to change the wheel speed sensor so we did that. Then it was about to be the master cylinder, CV shaft, and wheel hub. I just ordered the connector piece and Marine shrink wrap tubing. Should be here Thursday and I pray this is the repair needed.
It really did seem like a lot when I thought about it as a whole. Really, each step is super simple. Just take step after step and it's an escalator before you know. 🤘
Oh yeah, same problem with my 2500. Annoying as hell to hear that “ding” every 5 seconds. Shop told me the module is back ordered and would take a year or more. I don’t have your skills but thanks for putting this video together.
Dude! Nice job! You are not a mechanic like myself but you would've made a good one. When the "stealership" quoted me 1800 plus tax, I saved 2100 thanks to your great viddy. You are the only person who does this repair/upgrade on a more current Ram Pentastar V6. Next time spray all electrical connectors with QD Sensor spray cleaner first. It drys fast AF and will make some easier. I am not a pro but have fair amount of experience. After watching your video, it took me three hours. That included cleaning everything up as well as the empty long necks! kudos
Thanks for the props bro. I'll try that QD sensor spray out. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I had no idea. The stealership is just ridiculous. I understand they need to make profit but fuck...how extreme are they going to get.
YOU ARE AWESOME SIR! I am almost ready to mount the oil filter housing and wanted to say THANK YOU FOR all of the knowledge and know-how that you put into this video, and ALL of your video's! My valley looked as bad if not worse then yours, and they replaced it at 65K miles. I am now at 107K. But this time, I am putting on the Dorman metal housing...don't know if it will help, only time will tell. I have watched all of your videos. What's funny, is I couldn't understand how you were reaching the furthest back areas....until I caught one part where you said you were standing on the cross member! Holy crap. I'm 60 and certainly not thin...so because of you, I was able to do this! Yes, I am slow. Again, a HUGE THANK YOU for helping out the 'normal' man that is just trying to save a buck or two..in this case...over $1500 bucks! Happy New Year to you and your family! Semper Fi!
I have watched many of your videos and SIR you have saved me tons of money and time, TIME which I do not have. My father was a master mechanic...I am a master at figuring things out to save some money, but you sure are the ULTIMATE MASTER! Love your honesty, your can-do attitude and willingness to learn and make mistakes. Thank you very, very much! Semper Fi!
Brother, I have the same Ram truck and engine. NO ONE ON RU-vid has any damn information about our truck. I save your videos! My MAN, you rock!! Thank you for keeping it simple and helping others Years later. Keep them coming. Thank you for your time and thank you for busting your knuckles so we dont, LOL
had my oil filter / cooler replaced June 2023 , had a dealer do mine . Total out the door $ 1200. Why they ever re-designed this motor oil filter and sensors who knows . Great video seeing the whole deal .
Hello friend Well the code that I have said ABS CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL FAILURE That particular part will be no available till few months Any way long history short after several months my ABS and traction control completely when off I don’t know what the heck but is been few weeks and not mor Christmas tree on my truck What do you think
Fuel injector clips that are stuck I had some success by using PBblaster on those suckers I let it sit a day or two and it helped but still struggled a bit and some red safety clips broke still more like chipped
for those stubborn electric connectors, you can spray some wd-40 to make it easier to remove. I saw a video of some guy doing this, and they came right out
Thank you! The oil leak on the bottom of the engine is exactly what I was having. I'm about to replace the filter housing myself; with all the cussing involved! Thanks for all the details and explanation! Life saver! God bless!
Hey man, I dont know why you stopped making videos, but you should definitely stick with it. You are one of the rare "diy mechanic type" RU-vidrs who is relatable, not boring, and includes all the necessary information an average joe needs to get the job done. You saved me a ton of time and money. Keep it up, even if it is repairing small or simple things. A little time and you will find yourself monetized.
I appreciate it. I definitely have plans for more. Life has been getting in way lately. Sometimes a little nudge, like this comment, help a ton. Enjoy your day sir and thank you. 🤘
Working on semi truck etc over the years, those nuts are basically pinch nuts… one time use. The don’t like to stay as tight on the threads when reused.
That retainer clip I broke is on the bottom side of the connector I believe. You just have to pull it to disengage. Then the hose pulls off super easy. I just happened to snap that clip.
Cursing while calling upon GOD is a prayer curse on yourself. My GOD I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love Thee, and I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love Thee.
Bro I'm fixing to do this myself this weekend, this video was freaking great. I always complain about bad angles and too brief explanations and this had all the detail and angles. Thank you bro
