Any suggestions on removing over torqued flywheel bolts? I got three of them, but cant even budge the others with a breaker bar and the heads are starting to round.
That just happened to me, welding a nut over them didn't work, I end up removing the heads of the bolts, and then removed the flywheel, after that the bolts came out easily with a vise grips.
I just had my transmission rebuild but notice it leaks a lot of oil. My transmission has a warranty and a shop that did oil change said its coming from main seal. Is it some transmission place can fix?
@@SuburbanRanch thank you for answering. The transmission guy who worked on my truck said it's not the main seal because he changes the seal on his work. So I don't know where now :( Thanks again.
@@clendonrobinson6867stop driving it and get a pressure washer or soap and water and plenty of towels. You’re gonna have to clean your undercarriage surface area up. Find the most northern point of your leak after cleaning and run it to temp. and there you go bub. Hope this helps!
@@SuburbanRanch Thank you very much for your answer, I have a 1995 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 truck and three years repairing various things, this has helped me a lot. Greetings!
I have a 1992 4.3 liter v6 C1500 5 speed manual and my rear mainseal is leaking, would this video help me for my truck or is their another video you'd recommend?
@@SuburbanRanch I'm having problems finding a cover plate for my rear differential because my refill plug is seized up and the only way 2 refill I think correctly is with a new cover plate that'll have a refill plug and that's hell not even lmc has them but also autozone & O'Reilly cannot figure it out. The rear pinion seal the same Cannot figure out the specific yolk & pinion size for the truck I've done gone through 2 new yolk & pinion neither pinion seal would go flush with the rear differential and the flange on the seal is like curved and I'm thinking the 1 I need is flat? I don't know I'm just completely confused I even bought 2 separate books for the truck with still no help.
@@SuburbanRanch yea but it's harder on there 2 find exact parts ,lmc is alot more down to detail and they don't have it also summit wants an arm an a leg for everything hahaha
Rear mains common to leak? Seems like mine is leaking oil. Initially thought it was trans fluid but trans is fine, oil is low. So, I’d imagine that’s the culprit.
FYI....manufactures who make PTFE rear seals are very adamant that you DONT lubricate the crank surface or seal surface. I know that sounds strange, but I have seen this stated many times in writing.
@@SuburbanRanch Good to know. If you got the scoop on pitfalls of PTFE seals, please share, I will add them to the don't buy list no problem. Thanks in advance.
@Kevin Yeip We did that off camera along with the front timing cover, timing chain, and intake manifold gaskets. Probably should have done a video on it but it was early on in the project.
