Great work, I had to swap the one on my FailBlazer because it sounded like chubaka 😂
At least that wrong part you had wasn't as heavy as the rear hatch😅... I'm just saying.
Great video👍🏾
I did the connections on the back, the top front bolt to hold it, then the other ones, I didn't even try that lower bolt first. You are a brave man 👊🏾

Been there, done that before on an 05'. And if the Thermostat ever goes out you'll have to pull that Alternator back off in-order to get to the Thermostat housing assembly. Replacing the Thermostat is a real bugger on these 4.2 Trailblazers!

You made that look easy! Great video!

[@TheDaninator]

Thank you! 😎👍

[@DrShankenstein]

When putting the nut on the pigtail, I would have dropped that not 10 times before getting it on. As always thanks for posting! Hope you're doing well

[@thrillbilly9785]

Nice work bro! The only thing left squeaking on that truck is your old bones climbing into it for a drive.

[@TheDaninator]

You got that right!

[@RainUwU42]

Probably a stupid question, but what tools/parts do you think I'd need to put a flowmaster on a 03 Yukon XL?

[@TheDaninator]

Hack saw to cut out old muffler, some exhaust clamps (or a welder) and maybe some pipe adapters depending on the diameter of the muffler inlet/outlet, and basic mechanics tools.

Hello thank you so much for your videos. My Trailblazer has a rattling metal noise in the front end in the rear when it hits bumps I replace all the bushing the arms the sway bar links new shocks and it's still making seems like something's loose like a metal rod or something is making a noise only when it hits bump. Can you help or give me some advice. Thank you.

[@TheDaninator]

Interesting. My brother in law had a rattle in the front end of his truck, and it was the brake pads. They were just floating in the caliper without the hardware to hold them in place.

[@LaPurr]

Sounds like the exhaust manifold has a crack in it?
