This vehicle took many hours to repair, and the filming and editing also took many hours. My goal was to create a start-to-finish video in which I could document every step of this repair while also maintaining a reasonable length video. Therefore, I do not expound in detail on every step, but instead decided to take an overview approach. That way, someone who is interested in this type of repair can see what is involved and how to fix it without becoming overly bored and having to watch hours of multi-part videos. As a result, this video is intended mainly for entertainment as opposed to being a step-by-step repair guide, although you could probably use this video to guide you if you decide to tackle this job yourself.
In this video you will find:
1. An overview of nearly every step involved in the repair
2. Torque specs
3. A close up view of the failed lifters and damaged camshaft
4. All parts needed to make this repair are mentioned throughout

EXTRA NOTE: The truck here is two-wheel drive. If your truck happens to be 4x4, you’ll have a few extra steps to remove the oil pan. You’ll either have to drop the front axle or undo the motor mounts and raise the engine. In some cases, it may be easier to remove the engine entirely. Keep this in mind before starting the job!
