it is a stiffening plate. all newer motors are using them. give strength to block. great videos... i am a volvo mechanic. i do big jobs all the time. keep making videos. they are awesome.

[@davetate2932]

[@sheilas716]

I have to point out that you are one of the few to actually read and reply to comments. Thank you for taking the time and acknowledging the comments

Nice Larry brings back old memories when I was a auto mechanic thanks for sharing your life with us 🤩🤩

[@kirktitgen6395]

Larry, Excellent video. Your trucking channel is unique and so informative. You can be anything, but you will never be a Steering Wheel Holder.

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@timothyluker7071]

when taking off the oilpan you mentioned a piece of sheetmetal covering the connecting rod caps. incase you never found your answer this is called a windage tray and does a couple of things. It helps scrape excess oil from the bottom of the counter weights as they pass by and prevents oil from splashing onto the counterweights. making sure the counterweights stay perfectly balanced is crucial to maximizing life of bearings, seals, and other components in the bottom end of the engine. this part of the engine is equipt with just the right amount of oil flow in just the right places to keep everything happy no more lubrication is needed and the windage plate should always be replaced or reinstalled if removed, it can only help maintain the life of the components.

[@rickt4552]

Waited a long time to enjoy this in depth teaching vid about this procedure....heard about it a lot thru my Trucking career ...but to see YOU do it was AMAZING...thank you so much ...now...on to the next ....hope it ALL went back together OK .....

[@kens.3729]

You are Both an Incredibly Knowledgeable Truck Mechanic as well as a Top Notch Professional Truck Driver. You could make a Business out of “How to Repair” anything Truck related for truck manufacturers, mechanics, auto repair shops, etc. WOW, your Knowledge is Over the Top, Larry! Thanks for sharing this Incredibly Interesting and Informative Video. I have heard almost ALL the terms and parts you described and we saw by never seen them in place so this has been both eye opening and Cool to see. Thanks Again!

[@cgclemens]

Thanks for the wonderful video. Brings back memories of a bit of wrenching from my younger days. Very informative to help build up one's memory base. Thanks again.

[@dkhumphrey5713]

Great video. Like the way you explain exactly what you’re doing as you go. 👍

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@Roadhogg24]

Hey Larry Great Video! I'm nowhere being mechanically incline,and just watching you explain everyhting in detail was awesome, you would make an excellent mechanic instrutor,very detailed, you explain in easy to understand ,and your patient. Great job, i learned something, thanks,and its great to have you back!

[@KB-gs8zi]

Sir Larry !! Nicely done on the video as you didn't leave much out as far as the take apart is concerned !!! Been under there many times to help the mechanics out while learning what to do when growing up in the Mom & Pop shop in town !! Keep them coming !! Thanks again & KEEP IT SAFE !!

[@mcraige109]

Enjoyed the video. Truly a learning experience. I don’t know how you do it but you have the knowledge and the energy to get it done. On to the next video.

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@hungary191296]

Great video Larry. My wife was watching with me and asked if I had done this when I was in school for Diesel Mechanics. I said I did but back then there weren't all the wires. All good. Looking forward to seeing the other videos.

[@roncristysheehan6876]

Glad you know what you are doing....I watched til the end in amazement how you know where everything will go back together! You are a “Pro”! Cristy

[@loadedtrucker447]

Really interesting video Larry. You are one talented and very skilled truck mechanic!! I had not realized you were quite all that. Lol. I will look for number 2 Tuesday night. Have a good one!

[@bryanharper4426]

I miss wrenching on those trucks. Thanks for the video, brings back a lot of memories.

[@eddiekilby]

Larry you got some handy tools. I wish I would have had back in the day working on R model macks.

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@dapperdan251]

👍Having the right tool for the job makes it go much easier.

[@danapitman2269]

All you need is JBG there helping you and talking non-stop. Then it would REALLY get entertaining! He could do that job with a pair of channellocks and a rusty pocketknife. That’s all he has ever needed to do repairs.

[@ivankillins8407]

LongHaul Larry is a gentleman and scholar. His videos are educational and entertaining (the facts, events and people MAY BE FRICTION)

[@Jesse-le9bh]

Thanks Larry. Excellent video. You are amazing and you have the tools to do the job. Liked the clutch removal device. Anxious to see the next video...after you’ve rested that is. Take care. Blessings

[@connork5339]

Really great video Larry. I love doing that kind of stuff. Very rewarding when you get it all reassembled and running to spec. Right on.

[@daviddickey4331]

Best video that i've enjoyed in a long time. this channel is rated the best. Larry is The '' Man ''. We all in Richmond truly enjoy watching..... ''Bonecrusher & Family

[@stovebolt448]

This is one of your best videos.....just outstanding.

[@mikehelt30022]

You're boss is lucky to have you Larry. Love your videos and glad you are back up again.

[@tichdaddy1]

Nice work, and great video Larry. You make that work look easy..

[@jamesleake2121]

Good job Larry a lot of hard work but you have it under control looking forward to the next two videos but glad you are back in BIG BLUE and it is running good stay safe Larry

[@danachappell3861]

Now that was a job and a half. All those bolts, gaskets, parts to remember where they go.. wiring.. etc. So glad it's you with the education to do this. I'll just watch and help where I can.. I can change a thermostat, radiator, battery, water pump, alternator, etc. Changing parts hidden behind a manual transmission.. uh.. nope. lol Helped with a tractor once, and that was a freaking nightmare. Got the clutch working again though. lol Laterz!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🐔🚛😉💕🐸

[@jamesg9154]

They tray you are seeing below the crank shaft is the windage tray to keep oil from sloshing on to rotating assembly.

[@cghern75]

Very impressive work here, Larry. Sending you a soda and and burger while you're under there. Take care

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@leupold4089]

Hi Larry, great job as usual, you've got a good selection of tools there, i'am a tool kind of guy myself, some you use a lot some hardly at all like that crows foot wrench but glad you have it when you need it. Take care.

[@ihguy2113]

be careful with that clutch Larry if those dampner springs look like they are shinny or been moving replace the clutch dont worry about the pads . they hardly ever wear out on the ceramic clutches ive seen many clutches go back in thinking they are good then fail 6 months later and always replace the pilot bearing maybe you already knows this have fun have a great day.

[@grilledmortal4096]

Have had a few clutches on big trucks drop torsion springs. Once one dropped a spring so I could not disengage it. Always NEW clutch when tranny out. LHL AMAZING job and by himself on the floor.

[@joestrickland4023]

Wow that's a lot of work Larry my hats off to you on that one can't wait til the next vid

[@stevegarcia5106]

I spent a lot of time under my 68 Chevy pulling the Muncie 4 speed transmission out of that Chevelle on more than one occasion and thought i was special that i could do it all by myself, CHILDS PLAY!!! compared to what you've got going on here lol. Very interesting video Larry, take care brother.

[@khwoods01]

That is a lot of work. Nice job Larry!

[@danbailey4790]

in my old days of racing they called that a windage tray it kept the crank from foaming oil up while spinning and gave a tiny bit of more power

[@brad669]

great video larry i injoyed it awsome to see how big blue all works

[@Bran252]

Boy oh boy! I can't wait till the next video of this series 😈

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@caseylwr]

Great video Larry, you really need a pit to work in, in your workshop.

[@keepupwithspeedy]

so glad you are back and all is well.

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@carolynjones6457]

Very interesting, I have never seen the underneath of a Semi-tractor engine before. (I have helped fix vehicle engines before, but never one that big. David has though, he used to work at a Truck Stop in San Antonio, Texas in his younger days.) In my opinion it actually looks like Big Blue might have had a hairline crack in the block, there was too much oil on the Bell housing for there not to be. I might be wrong, if I am, I know that you will let me know. God Bless You. As always, safe travels. 👍👍. 😄

[@travishelms7067]

you are one hell of a employee. it's one thing to wrench on a company truck but to do these kind of repairs is another. lol awsome job tho. was a truck mechanic for 6 years been driving them now for 5..

[@bobmcl2008]

Hi Larry, glad the St Cloud Gazette did not have a report concerning LongHaul Larry found under a thousand pound transmission. :-) PS oil pan baffles are a big deal in the racing world. They do not want that oil slowing down performance. Must be a couple racers at Cummins. That's for you guys that take the on ramps too fast. Who knows??

[@LongHaulLarry]

😁

[@ATLASVARIAN]

It looked more like a lower engine "Girdle" helps to strengthen the bottom end from flexing too much, i had a 98 Jeep Grand cherokee with the 4.0 inline 6 that had one its just to stiffen the lower end due to large amounts of torque apllied to rotation assembly and mains. Just my take.

[@TexSavage]

Fascinating, I can’t wait for the next episodes.

[@LongHaulLarry]

Thanks

[@truckerjr9929]

Looking good thanks for the video can't wait for the next part.

[@OverKillPlusOne]

Crows foot is the wrench, great little tool to have to save your bacon.

[@delmarreilkoff2946]

I knew the problem was with the truck. How do I know it’s big blue, well that’s easy...you could see the blue cab when you took the clutch off, plus your working on a ComeApart , I mean Cummins engine which big blue has. Good video Larry.

[@SIRO1953PR]

Hi Larry, I am very impressed with your mechanic skills. The owner of ADL should be very proud of having someone like you in his truck Co.

[@mediccoy]

Clutch tool you showed is called a crows foot wrench I believe.

[@Hooptierescue]

Yup crows foot.

[@LongHaulLarry]

👍

[@jamessalazar8755]

Thanks Larry another awesome video,be safe .

[@grilledmortal4096]

LHL CRAZY man on the floor. Used to do clutches even machined many many flywheels Everything new when tranny out. The wear might be fine but the rest will bite ya. Very good Job . Especially alone. Impressive. Put a new clutch on a skidoo. More fun than that you Knuckle head!

[@LongHaulLarry]

Not worried about it done many and that clutch looked almost new . Boss asked if should be replaced told him no

[@rickevans6468]

Great video Larry . I use to do that for a living and I enjoyed every minute of it but glad it's over hahahah.. GOD BLESS Rick

Thanks

[@wheelerbradley]

That tray is your windage tray to keep the oil from whipping up from hitting the spinning crank.

[@StormChaserCalebkime]

Stay Safe Sir. Enjoy all your videos. Happy New year's.

[@petermurrell5221]

Great video and sounds 👏🔥💯👍

[@OverKillPlusOne]

Also the plate is a windage plate, you don’t want oil from the pan getting whipped up and aerated by the crank. Very common!

[@redstickrowdy]

Great video Larry. That was really interesting. I like to work on cars but it sure is getting harder and harder with all the electronics and emissions controls being added...speaking of which, this is just my theory. Larry mentioned that Big Blue uses a lot of DEF. so I’m thinking that larry notices the DEF system was rigged in a way “to make it work” by the dealer or previous owner, but in truth it won’t pass a rigorous DOT inspection making it illegal to drive. The dealer or previous owner had to fix It right because what they did was illegal. The secrecy was to avoid legal issues until it is fixed. Just a thought.

[@pc287]

👍👍 nice video!!

Thank you,this was very informative, do you show how to install rear seal?

[@brentgalye2936]

Splash shield, helps prevent oil from foaming.

[@donkuhl5103]

Did you find something else wrong when you pulled the bell housing? There was alot of silence.

[@LongHaulLarry]

No was just looking at it trying to find reason gasket failed

[@bobbynewman5017]

That was very interesting. That plate across the bottom of the engine, is it a block stiffener maybe?

[@cuznjo1]

not sure if it was you or jbg that said that the boss is looking to move his operation. seeing you do this work, i am thinking that the new shop will have a garage in it, and that you might become the head mechanic there

[@MrWolf2212]

Will the live feed be deleted after is over or we can watch it later on?

[@jeffgannon1]

Did I miss a video or something? Are these repairs to fix the leak you have talked about before?
