  • How do You align the bolts to the alternator - I have been trying and trying.

  • @sansonj72 Sometimes you have to wiggle the alternator around a bit as you turn the bolt.

  • wonderin if a duramax diesel motor would fit in a 98 K2500 chasis??? Has a 5.7 350 in it now... If it works, how easy or hard to do?

  • @18WheelTerrorist I'm not 100% sure. I'm not aware of or have seen anyone make this kind of a swap. You may want to check out an automotive forum for your vehicle to see if there's someone out there that has done this. They may be able to tell you exactly what you would need.

  • can you please do a video for the removal and replacement of intake manifold and carburetor for an old chevy. I have a 83 K20 and need to do this, but cannot find any videos or decent how-to's. I like your tutorials best, they are very detailed.

  • @starbuary10 I will be doing this in the future. I have an 86 GMC Jimmy of my own that I am going to upgrade the heads, cam, intake and carb on but that won't be until later in 2010.

see all

  • Big help thanks Man!

  • THANK A LOT I DIDNT HAVE A CLUE HOW TO DO THIS...BIG HELP MAN..

  • Awesome video. Just changed out the alternator on my 2003 Silverado. Instructions were perfect. Thanks!

  • Great video!! Very helpful. 

  • Fantastic video. I canceled my appt at the mechanic after watching this and decided to try it on my own. The worst issue I had was getting the bolt holes lined up. 30 minutes later and I was done. Great service to the common man you provide.

  • Great video. It was a big help with changing out the alternator and serpentine belt on my 93 Suburban. =)
