Magnificent!!Thanks this was very informative and helpful

Thanks you saved me a lot of money

I need the chrome wheel well opening trim for the left front (driver's side). Do you still have it?

What is the single white and black wire on the corner left top of the speedo mounting bolt? Ground wires? Thanks!

.....confused by step four........ I thought I was on a roll when I was keeping up with step two,...but then i heard my 10mm roll away someplace.

Is that hydraulic cap has dipstick in it

Nice picture

Should save the transmission crossmember. It’s a double hump one for dual exhaust that bolts onto the 75-77 cars that only had a single hump. Obviously save the 400. That’s a desirable block. The Turbo 400 transmission is worthwhile. Didn’t see if the trim around the quarter glass was decent but 73 was the only year they were stainless steel. 74-77 were plastic. The header panel is a 1 year only piece as are the bumpers and rear valance and taillights. Also since it had a heated back glass, that giant alternator is probably an 80 amp and are difficult to find these days. There are probably other 1 year only parts on it which should be saved if you scrap it. Definitely keep all the rally wheels.

That’s not the original mileage. That instrument cluster is from a 75-77 because it has a 100 MPH speedometer. 73-74 had a 120 MPH speedometer. I’ve owned quite a few GM cars of this era. The square key was for the ignition and the round key did the doors, trunk and glove box. Never saw one that the square key opened the door.

I’m having a really hard time finding the ground strap on my 2011 model. Is there any chance it’s taped to a positive cable? Have you had a look at this for any of the newer x3s by any chance?

Great sense of humour and helpful watch!

im getting brownish discharge from my left rear axle where the rim mounts, the rear 3 pt hitch barely lifts, the front all works fine and fluid shows full by shifters, I was hoping there was more than 1 location for hydraulic fluid?

This is the best video I've seen on this topic. Thank you.

Well - the reason I was doing the spark plugs was engine seemed to lack power. Replacing spark plugs didn’t improve that. The oil was a sign of seals in the turbos was leaking. I ended up replacing both turbos. One turbo expeller was blown down the exhaust pipe.

Helpful video, thank you for making it. I had as much oil coming from the intake as you did, where do you go from here?

Just a word of advice you can make your own much better longer lasting ground cable using 4 gauge battery cable with two crimp clamps

Can the part be called alternator ground cable? It looks the exact same. Please let me know.

Thank you for the video!

Like my older brother use to say back in 1983 as long as you have the body northern calif 🇺🇲

I love that you shot and posted thus, thanks! I wasn't shooting video in 2016 when I took posession of my M152. So, seeing this really takes me back! Thanks 🤘

What’s the part number

What fluid/lube did you use to refill ?? Im In central Oklahoma

Where did you buy these? Do you have a link?

Same problem on my 1710. When you drain the contaminated fluid, what position should the fel rams be in to make sure all fluid is removed?

Thank you!

Great job , informative

This deserves restoration . None around now

Awesome! Before I start mine, how did you loosen the ring around the filler?

4:30 The ground strap should be replaced every 7 years as preventive maint................if not you WILL get stranded someday

Save what you can

Just did my 2018 Explorer. Worked perfectly thanks. The 18 ring does not come off but a screw driver around it worked the rubber free.

Thank you so much this helped so much

Thanks, i was worried this would be an hard job, nope easy peasy. Thank you for this video, my 2019 will appreciate it

I am retrofitting a 351 Buick V-6 into a stretched (11") 1952 M-38. Must the fuel lines run along the frame, or can they be anchored to the underside of the body? My body is sitting on 1" rubber spacers so I have good clearance between frame and body. TIA.

I have a Shibaura SD1840D that looks similar to this. However, I don't see any drain plugs under the tractor. I have a fill hole for the rear lift and frontend loader under the seat and another like yours for the transmission. Both have water, but not sure if these areas are connected. It looks like I might have a drain plug on the right side for the transmission but not sure until I loosen it.

I have a similar issue with a Shibaura SD1840D tractor. It's suppose to be equivalent to a Ford 1400 or 1500. Mine has a reservoir behind the seat for the lifts and (like yours) for the transmission. I recently added some Lucas hydraulic fluid treatment (to the rear) to help with leaks and noticed there was some water in it too. After running a while, fluid started overflowing around the gearshift. However, I added the treatment to the rear reservoir. Wonder if these areas are connected? Also, where are the drain plugs for the hydraulics located?

I had a 73 model J with the 455 in it triple red in the mid 80s I miss that car . It was an awesome car and I did some serious burnouts with it. I beat my friends 67 350 chevelle with it and I remember he was pissed. It was such a cool car

Good thinking and problem solving. Thank you for this video guidance. Much obliged.

Awesome THANKS man. My wife broke her cover, and now I know how to get a used one.

Great video, this is just what I needed to guide me through the replacement on my 2011 Explorer. Much appreciated!

thanks for this! my one mechanic I use said these go bad, yet he checked it last year and said it was fine....sure, bet he did not want to replace as he can't get suvs on his lift!

I get the impression that good luck like that doesn't happen all that often. tHanks for the video

07:46 Real asbestos right there.

Sad salt rusts everything so much. Awesome van.

This is a cool video....tHanks for posting it.

Flares,....belts...starting fluid....yeah yeah......but.....Was there any ice cream!

I had that same type of parking brake on an early Jeep. It worked well when it worked at all.

great video, thanks very much! same year x3, just parked on my driveway, and can not start again, no crank, new battery, and follow your way to test, it looks like not ground cable issue, no idea still.

I need the hood
