Great video but remember any time you’re going to change the oil pan gasket General Motors has a defect gasket on your oil pump, remove the oil pump spout because there is a gasket there that actually cracks or breaks in half and it will give you low oil pressure readings. Remember to buy that gasket at the dealership so that way you cannot go wrong because if you buy it from China or from somebody else that makes it you are going to run across some issues and the dealership Has improved on the O-ring and also on the oil pan there is a shield where the oil spout head goes down into the bottom of the oil pan you need to remove it to clean in there because you’ll find a lot of metal shavings sometimes also that will give you an idea if you have some serious issues with bearings or the block. That’s just my suggestion and another thing before you’re going to work underneath the car and it’s full of grease go to a local car wash use their degreaser for about 10 minutes all underneath the lower A-frame the lower of the motor just soak it let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes and then go back and Pressure wash all the degreaser and you will see it will clean it all up and you won’t get that much crap in your eyes but I highly recommend to go to Harbor freight somewhere cheap and buy you a plastic face shield to keep any sand or anything from falling in your eyes that’s all I have my brothers and sisters God bless you all and remember Jesus Christ is coming very very soon so repent because I wanna see you in heaven with me one day God bless you all take care don’t forget except the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ✝️✝️✝️
Why didn't he use High Tack on the pan & gasket bottom? Once in place it is in place. Having not sprayed the block should you ever need to remove it again, hopefully not, it will come off with the same effort as the first time. Also, all the pan bolt threads need to be wire wheeled and if possible, run a tap down the threads as well. Maybe the issue as to why pans continue to leak. To get true torque setting this step shouldn't be avoided. One last point, use a Scotchgard pad by hand or 90 degree die grinder with a Scotchgard disk. Micro scratches on steel not such a big deal, aluminum different story. The whole point is do it right the first time, no? But than again, do what you feel is best, LOL. PS: Protective gear, your head, hands, elbows, ears and eyes. Ck out the nice dent on his right elbow.
FOR ALL U WHO ARE THINKING ABOUT PAYING SOMEONE TO DO THIS IT IS NOT HARD ITS TIME CONSUMING GET UR EXPERIENCE IN AND LEARN UR TRUCK SPECIALLY IF U LOVE IT
Great video. I’ve been looking for 2 days for this take apart and this was PERFECT. thank you. I was wondering why my pan didn’t come down. The Haynes guide said nothing in regards to the steering rack. Again. Thank you.
To make it easier to remove oil sensor plug, just loosen it so that the clip on the plug faces down. Way easier than trying to pic it with clip on top.
Nice job. I hope you caught the fact that you didn't tighten the pan to bell housing bolts before you ended the video. I believe those are torqued to 37 ft-lbs. I'm gonna try to tackle this job this week.
Thanks for the video. Video is informative and helpful. The music is annoying, had to keep muting and un-muting. You might think you need to fill the silence but you really don't. We came here to learn how to do this, it's that simple.
I assume the job would be very similar if not the same for a 2002 silverado 3500 dually?!Also your music would be awesome if it was used for some of the wood lathe videos I watch
Now I get why they want $600+ to change a dang oil pan gasket. 5.3L 4x4. Love my truck but I'll just keep toppin off my oil for the slow leak. Gonna drive my money pit til it dies. We've had a good run. 🥴
Literally takes less than 4 hours to drop the pan on a 4wd, you can even do it without dropping the diff all the way… stop being lazy and take care of your shit the right way lol you obviously don’t love it that much
Physical copy of Haynes repair manual is like $20-$30 at most autoparts stores, It has all the information on everything about the truck, I buy one and keep in the trunk of every vehicle ive owned .

Thanks for the advice here. Do you have the part number for that other oil pump gasket you mention?
Been getting low oil pressure readings I hope this helps me out
same problem . my mechanic charges me 200 cash and the gasket 70 total 270 .. you are doing a super job I congratulate you !!
200 that’s to chip in Illinois they charge me 700.
I now .. and took it to the workshop where he works. Now I want to give it more new parts.. 2001 the chevy but it goes everywhere
Damn I'd be taking my truck to him every time haha

Nicely done
How long did it take
Great video
Aw man, you gotta put 2WD/RWD in the title 🤷
Isn’t that hard to take a transfer case out
@@lukebland7470 It has nothing to do with the transfer case and everything to do with the front differential on a 4x4 getting in the way.

About how long did this job take you?

Got a 2003, 5.3 4x4 myself, my oil pan and transmission pans are both leaking all over, about a $900 job
I just changed mine, it was hard but these trucks are good trucks. $70 to diy.
@@Jesse43511 Major kudos!
Did you find it easier to work from the front? I wont be able to go any higher than my ramps, I will have to work from the front.
Did you seriously go ahead and end this video without showing that piece of cardboard with the bolt pattern sequence.???? Commmonn.....
So the 7 bolt at the front half of the oil pan are 18 ftlb and the other 7 on the back side are 106 ftlb?
All the pan bolts are 18 ft lbs except of the two long ones in the back are 106 INCH lb lol rip to anyone who did 106ftlb.
Hey what is the torque sequence? Where did you get the information for it?
Physical copy of Haynes repair manual is like $20-$30 at most autoparts stores, It has all the information on everything about the truck, I buy one and keep in the trunk of every vehicle ive owned .
Doesn't say what engine this is..why ?
Because the sequence and work would be the same for all the v8s
@@johncrankshaft2886 the same for a 4.3???
@@CM-kr2be all LS family V8s from 98-2014 share this layout, the 4.3 v6 for those years would be different.
No need to touch the rack at all.
Really so i can take the pan down without taking that and the front differential down?
If it's 2wd, you do not have to touch the rack and pinion
@@deidrequeen3288 i had to on mine, 01 silverado 5.3 2wd not enough room to pull pan out.
Easier thru the top
Anybody know what size the 2 bolts are under the plastic little nipples are
18 I believe bro and the smaller ones are 10
Engine size anyone?
4.8, five.3, .6.0 my five is broken on my computer
