I'd like to take a moment and say a prayer for that 4L60E, may she live a long and prosperous life trying to keep up with Marge's right foot! 😂💯

Happiness is finding a bonus sleeperdude video ❤❤❤

Lots of Sleeperdude content this week. Appreciate you and the family.

Josh has the patience of a saint,when that water pump bolt broke most other mechanics would have thrown their tools across the driveway

The wealth of knowledge in Josh’s head is priceless. Time & experience you can’t just skip ahead or replace. Thanks for all your dedication to the channel.

You're the envy of all the men and boys watching who want to be like you, as well as the super hero to your loving wife and kids who depend on you. Good Job! 🎉

Sweet! Got off work early and got home to a surprise midweek sleeper dude episode!

We're seeing a new, matured Josh here. Had heads completely off, and did no porting whatsoever. 😂

I love this generation of Yukons. Thank you Josh and Tosh! Whip that thing 😂

6:24 Josh I’m full on board with you say no more upgrade the injectors headers dual exhaust COME ON’ The perfect family SLEEPER I’m having a hard time controlling myself with comments lol 😆 I love this channel even more. It’s me Eddie P.

Excellent. A Sleeper Dude video on a Wednesday?! Excellent. Thank You Josh and Tosh and Family. Thank You. You made a tough week get so much better. God Bless You All and your Family and Friends and Animals. Love from Hebb's Cross Nova Scotia Canada.

Good thing Wawa got her license, Marge is going to loose hers!!

If you don't get the squeaking stopped, it's the bearing in the water pump. Where you heated that water pump up, It burnt that water pump bearing

Josh, you're a mechanical genius. I'm about twice your age and learned a lot from you.

I like how you fixed the exhaust leak by unbolting the exhaust. Brilliant!

Josh is such a great mechanic and teaching to his kids teaching them everything he knows so hands-on and is very impressive to watch and awesome to watch the kids Always be involved in doing something to help and learn

My brother was a mechanic for 37 years and he would definitely agree with you, hard Charlie that's what he called it. Difficult first easy last.

Thanks for sharing your struggles and family with us again. You two are truly amazing parents with amazing kids. You have truly been blessed

Sleeperdude in the middle.of the week. Well I'll be dipped, oh wrong person! Its impeccable!!

Surprised with a Wednesday video and to make it even better, it’s just over an hour long! Love the content Josh and family.

Glad to see you getting tosh s suv going. Love the channels. Keep up the good work 👍. God bless you all.

Another letter said you're saving money on labor by doing the work yourself, I blew the head gaskets out of my '01 Grand Marquis, and a friend of my brother's gave me a $3000 quote. Good Job!

You have the benefits of a cooperative crew of helpers--everybody contributes, it must be nice to have helpers, they are starting to acquire some useful skills!

Ah, more fun times with the Sleeperdude family!!!

sweet surprise! sleeperdude on Wednesday! and… i got to be thumbs up number 20…

Great job guys. You are going to have to dock Rocky's pay Granny was working and he was hiding somewhere 😅😊❤

The face marge made when she started up was priceless. I have experienced that air pocket problem once. Took me a bit to figure it out.

"Just fix it so I can drive it." Seriously Marge, have you not watched this channel before?? 🤣🤣🤣 Strong work getting Marge up and running again!! Who doesn't love a good squeal in their engine? It'll be fine.

So THAT'S WHAT'S been up with the Marge Barge!

Josh I just wanted to tell you my good friend his wife had the same truck tosh got he was getting engine lights cylinder 5 was over heating it’s a bad design from gm he had it looked at by his inspection guy he said them trucks had a over heating problem on cylinder 5 so they put a spoon type thing they sale it bolts to the end cap on the connecting rod so every time that spoon picks up oil it throws it up in the cylinder like on a Briggs n Stratton motor it worked for a little but he traded the truck in because the new motor was going to be over 5 grand I don’t even think it had a 100,000 miles on it maybe that spoon add on part you may of seen them before I just wanted to tell you before I forget good to see you all I need to watch this episode tonight after work god bless you guys this made my day this video thank you :)

I appreciate your videos so much. I’m good now, but you, your videos, and your family has helped me get through some major depressions in the past.

When you said "go granny go" it reminded me of the song "Little Old Lady From Pasadena" by Jan and Dean.

Great! You've got the wagon and now the Yukon up and running. Wawa's car is done except for some cosmetics. Great job, Sleeperdude Crew! Don't throw away those parts, that's Ralphie art supplies! I hope you guys are okay through these storms. This last one even made it over the App mtns. Thanks for the extra video! Stay safe!

Ive had the steam vents plugged on my supercharged 5.3 swapped c10 for about 5 yrs now with zero issues…..just make sure you jack up the front passenger tire when your filling the cooling system so that it is properly burped of all and any air pockets

I have the night off! Pizza is in the oven, box of woppers, and some spruce beer soda... bring it, one of nicest family on the KZfaqs.

I feel you about your Thermostat bolt, replaced all hoses etc on my Mark 7 . I said why not replace the Thermostat and housing. Bolt would not move , so I said no new Thermostat and housing! When you Bolt broke I said that could have been me ! You did great work getting it done, most people would have sent to the junkyard.

woohooo i was waiting for the weekend but this is fantastic to yay, much love to you all keep up the great work

Wait a min here hour long Saturday mini armd vide in week now this hour long on the second channel ur really spoiling us u lot are now time to watch this and i shall return with a review great video love the soujd of moms suv love these hour + vids thanks sleeperdude family

I love seeing the 90s-2000s Suburbans being freed from all the 90s-2000s electronics . I remember when I was young we'd get an old 80s Suburban and hot rod it and drop it low and have a great cruiser.

Thanks for the surprise video. Prayers for you all.

wow..I just happened to be searching you-tube, then I saw this surprise. Sleeperdude wednesday. Great!!!

Great time again watch great video 👍

i enjoy that you include the whole family. always worth watching

Glad to see you got the Yukon running. I’m envious, wish mine sounded and ran that strong. Always enjoy watching you get a vehicle back in service.

Ok Wawa...It's an unwritten rule , if you bring your Hot Chocolate in the shop a spoon is not allowed. Use a 10 mm Spanner !

Thank you so much now today is great

At work today saw a bad situation and said 'That's unfortunate ' laughter and thought of you!! Thanks 😊

Who remembers when you could sit or stand in the engine bays while working on motors. Seeing Mr Josh standing there brought back memories

Snuck this one in on us.. Impeccable. LOL

Ralphie: It's leaking oil Josh: That's factory 🤣🤣🤣

Sleeperdude episode in the middle of the week. Pleasant surprise. Love watching you & your beautiful family.

So happy for Marge! 😂 Happy Mother's day I tried to think how much labor would have cost you 😵‍💫 ❤ your family and the channel 🙏🕊️

Ralph is tearing into this job with authority 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

Just what led foot needs mire power lol

Hopefully it runs better, and I love the music that you have.. I loved the exspression on marges face when it first started up …great work josh ….

I was so happy I turned on KZfaq tonight and I saw that there was a sleeper dude on awesome I thought I was going to have to wait till Saturday what a great night this is thanks you guys for sticking one in there every now and then love y'all

let's go

is so nice to see a video of all of you in mid of the week and much better will get to see another one on the weekend and yes we should prey before Marge's drives that suv good job josh god blees u

Nice to see Squeezy getting all up in it on the parts washer. Always impressed by the way you guys just go with the flow and adapt to all the issues.

Great video! i love to watch you guys troubleshoot. Glad you got it working

I love that you include the family in everything you do and love. I hope to be a great father just like you.

Back in the early 90’s I had dual exhaust put on my truck and my dad was so mad at me and I’ll never forget the conversation he had with me. He looked at me and said you know loud exhaust will blow up your engine and at that time I didn’t understand what he meant after the second engine I finally figured it out it wasn’t the exhaust it was my foot and my wanting to hear the exhaust lol.

I kept wondering where the Yukon had gone. I'll be facing the same job on my G8 some day. Nice to know it can be done without messing with the oil pump. Thanks for showing me the way!

Josh mentioning the wind whipping almost the exact same time I get a weather statement saying that we have a tornado watch in effect til 4am. Nice work guys! 💙🙏🏻

I love the attention to detail you take. I had the same issue, getting hot, after I did the exact same thing to mine. VVT delete 550 cam kit from truck Norris. Ended up being an air pocket

Nice! It’s been a while since we got a mid week video!! Thanks y’all!!❤

It's a long ways infor the lifter's! Great job guy's! Love watching your awesome family!

Hylomar has been around forever, I remember my grandfather using it in England back in the 80 s and it being old school back then! Supposedly tried and true product!

3:38 Marge Bo Duke’n the yookun on the school drop off🇦🇺🤙🏼

i had the afm lifter fail on my tahoe. got it all ripped part and the lift wasnt even collapsed. its been sitting in my backyard in pieces since 2022. from what i heard those plastic lifter trays can get worn. maybe ill try replacing that. great video like always. thanks for all the entertainment

Nice work ! Watching the expressions on Wawa's face when Tosh is driving is PRICELESS !!!!!

Thanks family! Always great to see a new Sleeperdude video! Sure made this Wednesday a better one!!

🤠🤠🤠Josh, as Gomer Pyle would say, "Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!!" Thanks for the extra vidja, hard work, patience, and gettin er done. John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee, y'all.

I used a spark plug cleaner when I was 16, I'm almost 67 now. They do work well.

Saw a hack where they used a bolt and a zip tie to keep the hose clamps open! Looked cool!

Josh, I'm glad you got to work on the kid hauler 9000 and show us how to deal with one of the issues of this LS engine. A lot of us are driving these newer GM products, racking up the miles, and are wondering what can happen. Marge's eyes popped open wide when she cranked it. Priceless reaction! Love the goat sticker on the back window. Must be a Rocky special!! Thanks for this worthwhile episode!

You just made my week Josh with a 2nd mid week surprise video. First a pew pew review video (awesome) and now this one just over an hour!! It’s just what the doctor ordered lol. Favorite part when Ralphie says it’s leaking oil and you say.. that’s factory. I’m continuously impressed by Ralphie’s knowledge and attention to detail. Can’t wait for the next video. ❤

With a little perseverance and patience the Yukon is now a quicker grocery hauler!!! keep your drivers licence and registration handy Tosh and smile at the nice policeman LOL...that was a very informative video ...thanks for sharing your time with us...Karl from eastern Canada👍👍👍👍

You better have the casing store number on speed dial, cause those " Poor Casings don't have a chance" !! Great Job and sounds FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!

I'm praying nothing horrible happens to my mom's car it's a 2019 chevy traverse with the 3.6l LFY W v6 with the 9T65 nine speed automatic but it does only have almost 33,000 miles on it because my family most of the time uses our other car which is a 2019 chevy bolt which had the battery replaced under the recall. When do drive our traverse we call a truck and we don't beat on it and it gets out of it's own way for having 310hp and awd when merging onto the highway. I'm in new jersey so most of our highway limits are 55 to 65. Love you guys content!

I have a 2001 Chevy Z71 4x4 that has 245,000 miles on the original 5.3 vortex and still idles as smooth as the day I drove it off the dealers lot.

Marge call'n for the "end days" on her SUV was so funny, I was thinking the same thing Marge! Those AMISH broke the engine mounts long before Marge got her. Fantastic job on the LS gang, she sounded good without the exhaust too! Really enjoyed this one. I had a 1995 Chevy Caprice with the LS-1, I loved that motor and she ran fast and good for a long time! I did use good oil and changed it every 3k my self!

Awesome video!!! Really should've thought about doing the timing chain and oil pump brother 🤨🤨. Hope y'all have a blessed week!

I stopped halfway through mowed my yard real quick its been raining everyday nearly and came back in to watch the rest I sure hope that squeak gets fixed easily I am a bit worried and yall did such a great job is it good to have the exhaust off ? I am such a worry wart on these things Marge cracked me up extra 15 mins of sleep ha ha its so funny Josh is the slow driver It seems the rebuild worked great you will never be able to keep up with her in the beetle ❤I didnt realize the old girl was down for seven months It seems my dad a terrible mechanic said you need a certain amount of back pressure from the exhaust but you know lots more happy to see granny supervising she loves yall so much bless her heart. Thank you for sharing its Always a beautiful thing to see yall here and I love my glow in the dark keyring and the hat fits my noggin I too had a pretty big cap in the service , Josh I guess its all of that brain power we got huh 😂 ❤❤❤ love yall

You're an awesome mechanic Josh. Pleasure to watch.

Awesome job. Sounds great. Loved the look on Wawa's face as she looked at mom driving, 😂😂😂. I could hear her thinking "this woman is crazy " hahahaha. Love you all so much. Your videos always put a smile on my face. Thanks for sharing and I'll see you later.

10:43 HAA haa haa ha ha ha LOL!! I can't help but just LOVE good ol Marge speaking up full voice and I have only a comprehension of about 40% of what she's saying!! LOL. Love you Tosh!!!

Great job Josh, working on your personal stuff because it is broke is never much fun. But with the new performance mods it will be more fun to drive, so well worth the effort. Great video!

I did a flush on a 2000 gmc Jimmy. Ended up having to put the front end up on ramps to get the air pocket out. It worked good. Great video. 😊

Good Morning Josh. Very Well Done to You Achieving this Incredible Detailed Mechanical Engineering of this Beautiful SUV of Marges. I really liked your Step by Step Narration of the Process of Changing the Camshaft and replacing the Lifter. This is what a really Love about this Amasing Channel, Everybody who involved and Watching and Listening to what you are Showing and Teaching anyone who might need to know, what to do. I really did like the moment when Marge started the Engine, we heard that Incredible Roar from Exhaust System. She sounds really Awesome, to see Marge with a Big Smile on her Face was a Picture to see. So Lovely to see Ralphie, Wa Wa and Squeezy all getting Involved with this Excellents hands on Project that has taken this length of time. It was well worth the Hard Work, Effort, Strength, Determination, Grit and to Just carry on to Complete this Incredible and also Life Changing Stepping Stone that You Congquered, just like , if it was a Battle that the SLEEPER DUDE FAMILY!!!!! wanted to Fight and Win and become Successful in AMERICA!!!! of today 2024. I am Very Proud of all of You Gorgeous people. Total Big, Big Respect to all of You. JONATHAN/ ENGLAND..

Just another great video guys......thanks for the episode.

Love watching each and every video and this one was awesome. You have a happy wife so you're having a happy life. Love the way it sounds.

SPEEDI UK .... I used to use Hylamar blue gasket sealant on anything that had a gasket joint seal I remember reading it was designed for aero engines ...there is a hylamar Red that hardens .... still loving your channel and the crazy mixture of content you all contribute into it

Last summer I had to do the same win my Hemi 5.7. Went with stage 2 comp cam. While I was in there I replaced the springs, did a valve job, DOD delete just like you. Then, added the Hellcat oil pump for better oil pressure. I had a buddy do the tuning for me. She runs strong.

Awesome job. I had that same type of squeal on my '05 Avalanche. Turned out the front crackshaft pully had a wobble and replaced that then the squeal went away

42:08 show me the rain I love the sound of the rain. It’s so relaxing to me.

Smart decision on getting rid of that troublesome cylinder de-activation nonsense. Even smarter decision on the camshaft upgrade. When those lifters go, they go in a bad way. At least it was only one of them. Great repairs!!!

Great job! Seriously this could have been a main channel video, real nice!

Solid work! I had a airpocket PITA recently as well similar issue.

Awesome repair !!! Too bad for the water pump bolt, but nice it got hot in the driveway and not in town.
