Very important I think you should touch on sir. Especially 99 up gm trucks, any time a electrical plug is unplugged or plugged in(abs) sensors, it's a good practice to unhook the battery, I realize there is probably not going to be a problem with this but man it's not worth a maybe, these are a totally different beast than we as diy guys are used to. And don't forget there is a small relearn for the ecm every time the battery is unhooked, I found it in a Haynes manual. It definitely makes a difference. Hope this helps😊

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I have to say that your explanations, editing, and speed video parts were great for getting to the point and showing key elements without a bunch of wasted BS video time! I am just getting ready to order a front-end rebuild kit from Detroit Axle, so this was perfect! Hubs were already recently replaced with Napa severe duty, so they're good. My 07 Duramax only has 120,000 on it, but my pitman and idler arms are toast, and the boots on the upper and lower ball joints are deteriorated... so I was gonna go ahead and get the kit with pitman, 2 piece idler, inner/outer tie rods, loaded upper arms, and lower ball joints. Also doing Bilstein shocks, and new drilled/slotted rotors and carbon pads at the same time. My truck sees as many miles towing a 17,000lb 5th wheel as it does empty! I have just a couple questions/ comments... I was originally thinking I'd completely disassemble and rebuild one side and then the other, vs. removing the whole drag link as an assembly and rebuilding it loose on the bench. Is it too hard to get the inner toe rods apart from the center link if it's still in the truck? I was wondering if that's why you removed it all together? Also, wouldn't it be easier to just put a floor jack under the end of the lower control arm and lift "slightly" to remove the shocks, vs. turning the torsion keys loose and having to try to "reset" the ride height of the truck? Just wondering if I was missing something! Oh yeah, I almost forgot to ask.... do you know if there's any way to determine if the truck has a 3 groove vs. a 4 groove pitman arm, without disassembling it first just to verify? Great video, and I'll be saving this to refer back to once I have all my parts! 👍
@GrubNGas Жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for your feedback, and taking the time to post such a well articulated comment. This one wins comment of all time! In retrospect, I would’ve removed the tie rods with the center link still in the truck. It was a PAIN to do it out of the truck. Also, yes, the floor jack lifting the lower control arm would’ve been easier. Sometimes my efficiency is not the best, lol! As for the pitman arm, I took a chance that the kit online would have the right one for the application. Probably not the best move, but they got it right. I genuinely appreciate your comment and insight. I wish you the best on repairing your 2007. These trucks are totally worth the maintenance!

Hey brother, great tutorial! To the point step-by-step, clear camera angles and i feel the 90% "how-to-do" commentary and 10% banter/chemistry with wifey struck a good balance. Quick question. 01 Silverado 2500hd 4x4 and just recieved that same detroit axle kit and one thing that drew my attention was how not so heavy duty the upper control arms at least appear to me by comparison to whats on the truck just like the one you replaced in the video. So i was curious if its just a looks can be decieving thing or if it is just a lighter duty swap?

Thanks so much for the feedback on the video! It was a lot of sweat making it, but worth it:) I too noticed the lighter upper control arms. I haven’t had any issues with them so far, but I did notice the non-greasable ball joints squeak on one side within a couple of months. If I had it to do all over again, I would have looked for uppers that have the zerk fittings. That’s my thoughts so far, hope that helps!

Well done video, but watching you put dirty parts back made me cringe!!! A little Dawn dishwashing soap, and a powerwasher go a long way, but I'm a clean freak.

Thanks for watching and commenting, and yeah, I probably should’ve taken some time to clean them. I’ll keep that in mind next video:)

Great way to ruin the sector shaft on the gearbox hitting it with a air hammer

I am amazed you never pressure-washed the area you worked on , Detroit parts are not going to last , not watching whole video

There was definitely room for improvement in this video. The Detroit parts have done fairly well so far, but time will tell. Have a great day!

if had say a bench vice and some proper wrenches you wouldn't need to jack hammer your stuff
