The Duramax gets an upgraded column bearing!

[@coldsause14]

Thanks for the video. I just installed this in about 15 mins tops, and now i have no more noise. Thanks for the recommendation

[@chrismayhand7918]

Wish I would have seen this earlier, just bought 2 of the green bearings to replace on my 2 trucks. Thanks for all the info

[@stevenhoover748]

I installed this a few weeks ago and made a big difference. A bit of a challenge to install, but worth the effort and expense.

[@_N4VE_]

i’ve been getting aloud clunk/rattle too right behind my wheel and was thinking it was the shaft itself! Didn’t know there was a bearing there. gonna get under there and check if that’s wha the clank is coming from! I was worried it was steering component related

[@megastick9324]

My 02 is about ready for this. I’m a big guy and 265lbs, I HATE working under the dash, but if I don’t no one will lol. Thanks for the tip and video, just have to get my gumption up lol.

[@Repomam2000]

This is great! I’m glad this video popped up. Thanks for sharing.

[@bobbyk6761]

Just got mine in. The old one I had to melt out with a propane touch because it broke off flush. New one slipped right in!

[@numbr3t]

I just bought one based off your video to fix my repeated issue! This bearing looks stout!

[@manuelgutierrez7568]

Glad I seen this ordering mine this week.

[@lulop022882]

I have one waiting to be installed. Forgot how easy to was. I recently had replaced with the dorman part and the intermediate shaft. Shouldn’t take long just replacing the bearing.

[@LarryFopps]

Thanks Seth!

[@flinginairos]

I just tried to do the bearing and intermediate shaft the other day and COULD NOT get the shaft loose. I got mad and gave up 😂 I’ll try again and take the pedal out and use a pry bar to get the shaft out. I couldn’t budge it by hand.

[@jackcordeiro]

@@flinginairos it gave me a hard time also, the extra leverage definitely helped. Good luck!

[@stephenfurr8769]

How did you both get that flush??? I can’t get it flush. Just stopped moving.

[@jmill6069]

I had to use a prybar!

[@regjackson38]

What years come with the sensor?

[@burmesebeef]

how did you tighten the set screws in the back side?

[@jmill6069]

Turn your wheel once you put the bolt back in and the seatbelt off.

[@lewisgeer1994]

Thanks for the video. Where is that steering wheel from?

[@jackcordeiro]

Grant performance

[@tyinthesky8347]

What exhaust is on your truck? It’s so quiet…….

[@jackcordeiro]

3” Mbrp downpipe and 5” Mbrp exhaust

[@klumsytone]

How do you remove play in your steering? There’s a dead zone in the steering where nothing happens when you turn the steering wheel left or right. You have to go past that dead zone to turn the wheel.

New steering gear box, RedHead

[@LBZOverlander]

GM gear box has an adjustment bolt. Just loosen the compression nut and adjust with Allen wrench. Lots of videos on this.

[@Legally_its_a_joke]

Definitely try tightening the adjustment key before dropping big bucks on a new box

[@justininman3221]

Where did you order or get your column bearing from?

[@jackcordeiro]

It's from wolff engineering, I put their link in the description

[@LarryFopps]

I stick with the OE style bearing personally on all of my trucks. OEM one lasted nearly 20 years, a replacement $20 factory style one will likely last just as long.

[@northface484]

LOL...

[@kcgworks952]

Sick nasty😂

[@bryontharp5790]

Can't do it on 09 and newer without removing the column so dumb

[@thicccustoms6503]

Damn I really want one but I think my steering wheel position sensor might be in the way😂🤣

[@joeytongue3982]

The company makes one for the steering wheel position sensor also

[@Garage_Beers]

Any change in steering the vehicle too?

[@jackcordeiro]

@@Garage_Beers No, if you are having a steering issue, Diesel Addiction has a nice upgraded steering box that may be worth a try.
