Finally the transmission oilcooler and lines are installed. We must move to the other side in front of the radiator as there wasnt enough space for the line-connectors We will also add on the transmission to the lines an 45° Adapter that the line will not be bend through the frame and cab...

I doesn't know if there is another solution than these original nozzles. I was able to got them NOS, so the easiest way to exchange the old ones

Got today the 4l80e transmission oilcooler lines Was an andventure to got them here... coming ultemately via Amazon.com from USA 😂 Of course they deliver this time fast as i am handicaped and can't work on it 😅 7ft - 2,1 meter should work to find a comfortable assembling.

Thanks, fortunately it was a small OP. Right hand was fast recovered so i think the left hand will also recover fast. This year will be follow 2 other Hand Ops. All the years i delay this until it must be done. The GMC Truck will be our retirement vehicle. I must confess i start to have...

Our goverment will reply this acting from trump in the same wise and increase import taxes on any US goods here also in the same high. But until now this are just statements from both sites. We will see what happen in the future. But Trump is not guilty for our other economy problems here like...

I have my second hand op today - it will set me back a bit, but after Trump's announcement of imposing 25% taxes on German goods, the restoration will be over anyway. We currently already have a 45% markup on the purchase price in the USA, another 25% increases the price by 70%. We can't bear...

Unfortunately no progress on the chevy First needed our daily Driver complete new Brake disks and pads. Front was done but rear needed still to exchange. It was the first time where i used our new diagnosis tool for the electric park brake. It dont work like expected, Battery had not enough...

We must prepare us here for the next economy war. If Trump rise up importtaxes on germany industrieproducts will in return here the importtaxes also rise up on us products. That mean any part we need to import for our trucks will be more expensive

This would work if the Torx Screw wasn't already worn out from former replacement in the Volvo Shop. Didnt expect that. A part of just 1 Euro. The Screws should come new with replacement. We was now more than 20 years customer there but about several bad expierence did we change now to another...

Wanted go on with the chevy and than this happened on my daily driver.... Volvo XC70 It is the generator belt - so i spent my weekend on this include the brakes as they needed exchange of worn out. Usually if it can go bad it will do this. Both disk centerbolts needed drill off We also...

We couldn`t finished the Kryptonite Front-End on the Sierra before Hand Op. So we start as fast as it was possible in the last week of the year 2024 and had him finally on his own wheels again on the 4th January. Now the frame is in the shop again moveable. Now the Sierra got a nice...

Now that we have solved the problem with the gearshift, we are in the process of completing the Sierra front axle. There is a hand operation pending and therefore heavy work that requires strength is not possible for the next 6 weeks. The heavy work on the Chevy is all done. After we were...

We needed to adjust the sensor also a bit but with it it work now correct Sorry for the bad quality of pics, made from a video... and the instrument cluster is still with it secure tape on the display it gone through all gears smooth and directly, no comparison to the spongy switching feel...

So small and innocent 😂 To be safe i had ordered 5 .... Also arrieved the energy suspension bushings which fortunsately fit So we can go on

Thanks. I find my english extremly poor, especially in terms of grammar and pronunciation. When i write, i always check the text several times before posting. I avoid conversations, which is somewhat difficult but possible in my job. It is also always funny when i have to call the dealers to ask...

Perfectly expressed, only the last sentence doesn't really make sense in German. What did you actually want to say with “How do you like the new transmission line?”<- my translation tool translates it this way. I suspect that my English is also a bit “bumpy” at times

After a lot of cutting does it fit I am still not satisfy with the wiring of the appliances, but for space reasons we have to live with it The metal flap and the lock will be installed at the last part the shift linkage is ready for a test but since i dropped one of the small adjustment...

You know all that we work on two trucks. Allways if we wait for parts switch we from one to the other. A general question: Is it just me who is too stupid to install these rubber bushings or is it the same for others? I have a press and still can't get them to fit properly. On the Chevy I...

Some Parts arrieved but we had no time this weekend to go on with the truck It must wait. We dont care that the glove box is made in Taiwan. We will destroy it for our customizing 😅 important only the open/close mechanism on it.

Not much progress We start to customize the shiftlinkeage But we need this special bolt (german: Gelenkkopfschraube) in metric as i have not the right thread cutting dies in inch I ordered today as here is no shop which have such material on the shelf. We use the TH400 linkeage as template...
