I always change the fluid after 400 miles. Yes it will have fine metallics.

If the rearend gear set was new…and the backlash set right…I wouldn’t worry about redoing gearlube….you can however service it on 80-90k intervals and see good life….what I don’t see is the vent hose …that’s important and should be mounted high especially if you dock boats with your truck

My 2001 gm 10 bolt rear end has the g80 locker in it and I have a drain plug to drain and fill fluid I only replace cover gasket once it leaks I change my fluid every 10k

I have the same problem with my 1000 gallon propane tank. I tried lifting it with the car hydraulic jack to reposition it and just made it worse. This was about 3 years ago. It's been working fine despite my best efforts to "fix" it.

Awesome video subbed and liked.

That was horrible to watch you clean that mating service and toque those bolts down

just fuckin tap one yourself cunt fucking lazy generation

The term is "case hardening" not "hard casing".

You stole someones delivery of insulation! 😅

Amazing video I love your stuff!

Make a drain bolt yourself

The usual reason is that they don't want home mechanics to work on it.

Oh yeah, break in fluid change for sure…the only truck I’ve ever done that with is my duramax, can you guess why?😁

Some do have drain bolts. Most companies will have a recommendation on break in period for ring and pinion generally i like to change the oil and inspect the gears at 500 miles. Also i dont run synthetic gear oil in differentials that is quite a debated topic. I do use synthetic in some diffs actually but not many.

The theory for older vehicles was that the gear oil is going to last as long as you drive the vehicle and if you wanted to change said oil, you would want to check the gears for irregular wear- at least that's what I was taught.

To answer your first question. Don’t ask a mechanic. Ask an engineer.

American cars don't come with drain bolts 😂🤣😂

Because engineers are retarded.

I've read a manual before that said you need to change after 50,000 or after so many months but Idk many people that ever do it I don't

Rotational torque 😂

Just drill a hole, weld on a nut and plug it. Bingo drain hole.

You don't need to change the intervals for rear end replace regularly. Engine break in gets from cam, berring and most of all cylinder mating surfaces the rear end if properly installed has much less friction with thicker oil.

See this all the time in heatpumps- but they are usually vertical like ' ride the lightning'

On old cars it's so you would be forced to visually inspect the planetary gears, on new cars it's so you have to go to the dealership. New Honda all wheel drives still have drain bolts.

I guess you never heard of a ball peen hammer 😂

It forces one to clean the rear instead of just draining the oil and leaving the metal behind. (No separate filter) And yes it's a good idea change the oil far more often than anyone says or doesn't say.

Why a 2X4 is not 2 inches by four inches, etc.

Commenting so i remember to check here after any major fires occur.

Get this man a beer!!! Saved me a bunch of time and frustration. Best video by far.

I do find it weird that cars and light trucks don't have differential drain plugs but medium duty and heavy duty semi trucks do Yet.. you'll still never see anyone do a fluid service on their own semi truck's differential lmao

I am pretty decent with gear setups, but watched your video as a refresher. Man, for not knowing how to repair the rear, you did a hell of a job and better than what I have seen in a HD truck shop.

My pfp car has a drain plug on the diff I wonder why others don’t

Have you ever heard a rear end click only when under load? Or is this likely driveshaft u-joints?

Yes after break in 500 miles drain and inspect after a recent overhaul thats how i do it for my customers!

2019 Honda CR-V AWD, Model LX - Could not find the plug taped for connection. Missing on the wiring harness on my car. I am a pretty good mechanic, so I know what I am looking for. Anyone else run into this problem.

Great video, I'm rebuilding mine next week and will be watching this a lot to get through it. Haha, nice job!

Hun, there's an error code 10-54 on the thermostat. Uh oh.

Once found a mouse fried between the bus bars of two phases, could have easily ended in catastrophe.

We had a raccoon across the buss bars of a 480v 3 phase panel. Took forever to get the stink out of the control room

looks like the 10KW frog

It's so you clean out debris, dummy. Need to inspect the splines.

They want the vehicle to break. look at 1990 & past with equipment, grease fitting all over the place.

He got the juice 😂

Pro homeowner shit. No biggie. Cut, strip, reattach. Ignore the horror. Enjoy the heat.

That'll do it

I have pulled probably hundreds of mice out of condensers, or outdoor units. I have yet to pull one out of a furnace. LMAO

Thats error code 44, loss of rodent life.

I saw the droppings in the upper part

Soon as it started "its probably a rat"

Had a bug get into my PS4 back in the day and touch the wrong spots and fry my power supply, two days after I bought the damned thing, was an easy and fairly cheap fix, but it smelled like it was burning for months after that lol
