Just did one in 3 hours on a 2002 2500HD 4x4 6.0.. Removed fender liner, dropped the front of the front prop shaft, removed O2 sensor. Did not disturb front diff. This was with a GM part. I did cut one of the original lines to get it apart as a time saver. Not a job for someone with anger management issues, lol. Edit: left front wheel off of course.

I used to try to do things without removing other parts to allow for clearance. Now with age and wisdom, I have found just tear it down to where you have room to work and put it all back together. It sucks but usually less swearing and the job gets done faster in the long run.

After watching a few videos on this, I tackled this last night. Unplugged crankshaft positioning sensor and another something plugged in around motor mount. Clips, 2 bolts holding line to block, 1 13mm bolt holding line to block by motor mount. Installed opposite i took out. Nothing else, worked it out the back over cross member, didn't take that long. 2009 silverado 2500 4x4. Did spring for felpro gasket for block.

Saw a post with a guy that carefully cut off the factory crimp where the rubber meets the metal line (where they almost all typically leak). He then installed some 3/8" high pressure trans hose (400psi) and clamped it. Cheaper and probably a much better fix.

Everyone makes this seem so hard but all you need is to bend the 90° to a 45 like the other line, where it goes under mount. Then get two people and pull it through. I did this on 4wd and didn't remove anything but oil line.

They also leak where the 2 lines come together in the bracket for ppl that can’t seem to find where the leak is. And if you have 4 wheel drive which is more of a pain drop your exhaust that’s over by the oil filter or driver side so it comes out easier through the back by twisting as you go.
@rydplrs714 жыл бұрын
mxr I didn’t drop the exhaust, I had the other manifold off a month ago and broke 2 bolts. I wasn’t doing that again.
@mxr75864 жыл бұрын
rydplrs I took the exhaust off where it connects to the manifold down by the tranny. It’s good to have a torch to heat them up quick and they come apart but I didn’t have to. I anti seize everything I take apart so later it’s not a problem for the future if it has to come apart again.
@rydplrs714 жыл бұрын
mxr I have torches too, but in the road salt zone they don’t always win. I’m not sure why you took the y pipe off unless you have aftermarket exhaust. There was plenty of room to get by.

While your video is good quality, your like the 4th video not to show the actual install, which now I feel there's a good reason.

Now that would be a video i would love to see if the tech doesn't blow is brains out trying to get new lines on. I can testify to the fact that Never again will I ever replace these oil lines on this beast!

If your truck has a six inch lift it’s a easy job. My six inch lift move the front diff down 6 six inches and the diff top mount is cut off due to the lift and front diff mounts from the bottom side. Which then makes this job a breeze.

On 4wd its not so bad. Just unplug 4wd solenoid, undo plastic rivet holding that wire to the axle, undo plastic rivet on drivers side by pumpkin, unbolt both driver side axle mounting bolts, loosen the pass side almost all the way, remove bolt holding harness to front lower side of engine, remove knock sensor connector, remove sleeve from connector, wiggle and bring the oil filter side out from the front.

Oil cooler lines are on the driver side. Tranny cooler lines are on the passenger side. Plenty of vids to watch. Worst part of the job is the oil residue underneath the car you deal with snaking the line thru the chassis. Have a potable led work light and head gear light. Wear safety glasses and backlava head wear to keep from getting your face oily and dirty from falling debris. Since you'll have the skid plates off, use engine degreaser and blue dawn soap solution to power Wash the Undercarriage. I bought the line from AutoZone due to the lifetime warranty. $32 + tax. You can get it done and save money.

@ghostyAutoDetailing Sounds like yours is a transmission cooler line leak. The oil cooler is on the driver's side of the radiator. Same process for both the transmission fluid and the engine oil cooler lines.
