after spending a solid 45 minutes "engineering" the simplest most efficient way if repositioning the crossmember.... sawzall and reweld ...
crossmember had 4 Huck bokts in passenger side, 1 inch from the fuel tank ...drivers side , I believe 2 huck bolts and 2 grade 8 bolts.. The driver's side...
From what I understand the upgraded C6 thrust bearing is a simple drop in….if that’s the case, fighting with 8 Huck bolts , moving the crossmember and maybe a little nip/tuck in the bed frame rails with a plasma cutter will grant enough access to the thrust bearing… is it possible to...

definitely not brake related ..it occasionally whistles at idle...no change in either air psi gauge,.I tried to locate the noise from outside ,it appears to be near the bottom of the engine..but of course as I get closer to pinpointing the source it stops,flips me a bird, then starts again as...
there is the difference between us and them ..we do the work ourselves, the labor,the pain, the sweat the joy...if we don't know how to do it, we rely on ourselves to learn as opposed to whipping out a poser check book..... you can't buy respect
statistically they're aren't many 30-somethins' that have half a million to spend on an RV, broadcast their scripted "adventures" all in an suffocating need for self affirmation whose self worth is soley based on the number of "likes" they receive...
