Isnt the fault in these kits that you have to assume one side is perfect? Makes no sense.

There is a calibration that needs to be done so the new actuator can re~learn.

At least you didn't drop a valve onto a piston at the bottom of the stroke.😊 That's what I was thinking was going to happen.

Glad you got it straight…my Z06 was built right in the middle of the “valve spring” problem window…the older the car and I got the more I was worried about the problem. I’m perfectly capable of doing the job…but given my advancing age and waning patience levels I for first time since I bought the car new in 2002 I sent it out to a Corvette specialist in my area…The car was gone two days…they did a beautiful job…the reason I sent it out was as you showed us shit happens to everyone no matter the experience level. Thanks for being willing to show your mistake…not common on KZbin

Do you lubricate the dust boot and/or piston? Or just lubricate the inner seal? And I've read of people saying to use assembly lubricant instead of brake fluid.

wouldnt it still be possible for it to be aligned but the wheels still be like this / / ? front and back would have the same distance, but how do you get it to not be crab walking
@bernierubbersgarage6066
@bernierubbersgarage6066 Жыл бұрын
Yes, but in this certain case I knew the drivers side was a good measurement so I only had to adjust the passenger side. That being said, you would do a string alignment by running a string from the rear to the front. One full turn of the toe arm produces a noticeable movement so the string alignment would get the wheels straight, then the toe plates would give you the refinement you would need.

Ok..on all videos I've seen..no one ever shows what position that the air is on when putting the mode actuator on..I notice on the mode actuator there are 3 markings..and the new one set in the middle. So then..what do you turn the air on..(vent, floor, defrost) before you plug the actuator in..

I think I know what you mean and if I'm remembering right, I had a hard time with that too. I don't remember what setting I had to have to get everything aligned correctly, but there was a lot of trial and error. It was a PITA 😅

I've been digging for the last 24 hrs for info to put mine back together. I removed the actuator off the cam and the cam off the blower box so all my alignment is screwed up...Anyways I saw another video where a guy installed a brand new delco actuator with cam and he said you need the mode set to "face vents" for it to be properly calibrated when you plug in the new actuator out of the box...

I’ve never seen anyone really remove it either. However, it is my understanding that the selection switch should be set to the middle position or straight up. I have to do this repair for my brother in law and I’m certain to f it up and never hear the end of it

Spoiler is the Spec Corvette one, I have a video of the install too. More for looks than function, but I love it. The QuickJack is the 7000lb one. It's nice to have it work for my Silverado 1500 (~5500lbs). It's awesome to have but they are heavy! I hang them on the wall with some DIY holders.

Great video. I've just gotten back into HPDE after a decade-long break. I've spent quite a bit of time at TWS (moment of silence), Hallet, and MSRC. I haven't made it to ECR yet. Looks like a fun track. Who was running the event?

I never got the chance to run TWS (moment of silence), but ECR is a lot of fun and the new track being built out by Anna looks awesome! I'm not sure they'll let HPDE on it yet, but surely down the road. I instruct with Apex and love that they have single day events. I normally work weekends so single day events are what I look for.
