    Yeah there is just one at each wheel but managed to scrounge up another 3 so left with one short. Just gonna try and drag the one wheel. Only need to go a few feet to get the cab back under the canopy while I start pulling apart the motor. Duramax having a hard time getting her to slide.

    If I need to cage the parking brakes, that requires a bolt in each rear wheel chamber or just one of the chambers per wheel?

    Thanks for the resource, I’ll be pulling oil pan today or tomorrow to see what else I can find. I cut the oil filter open and didn’t find anything there.

    So still having an issue with low power and rough idle at times. Sometimes it starts and runs rough and other times it fires right up and runs great.

    much to my chagrin....

    Edited to remove my first question…tapatalk app doesn’t display signatures and was curious which variant @serpico760 has but I see now. Still curious if they all say 330 hp. Do all 5 ton models have the upgraded tune? (please excuse the sidebar question) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ugh, read the whole thread to get a better understanding of the swap and this book had a terrible ending. Looks like I’m a few years late on this…guess I’ll start looking for shop that can install an R&P.
