- In this episode I fight an O2 sensor, properly fix my turn signals, and a few other minor fixes. This one was an experiment in just filming nonstop from beginning to end and cutting it down to what was relevant and interesting. In the end I cut down over an hour of footage to make this episode watchable 👍

I watched this video and fantasied about my USPS owned LLV receiving this level of maintenance.
haha 3 weirdos that want to see this.. thanks for posting, I enjoyed it
Convenient Ed for self-aware tripod duties
Hey, I snagged a brand new door handle assembly, two dashboards, and some other small stuff from an LLV in a junkyard here in PA. I think the mirrors are still at the yard as well. They crushed it legitimately less than a week after it was put in the yard.
If you need anything let me know.
Shame, I would have loved to pick up some minor bits from it. Even just a few photos how certain things are supposed to be. Oh well, sad to hear that it got crushed already. Probably worth a pretty penny in scrap given how much aluminum is in them.
@@PostalDog94 yeah. What photos are you looking for specifically. I might have a photo of it.
The first that comes to mind is how the heater valve is supposed to originally be mounted. Another is what hardware was used to mount the spare tire jack to the passenger side of the bulkhead and where did they store the iron that goes with it. I have the jack and iron, but am lacking the hardware that held it conveniently in place. I also am missing the e-track mount for the spare tire, but there are a lot of aftermarket ones available to pick from
@@PostalDog94 I might be able to ask my friend's neighbor. He works for one of the USPS garages.
That would be awesome! I know USPS typically just removes them from the vehicle as they don't expect or want their carriers to even attempt to change a flat tire out on them. So far I've not been able to find any pics or documentation that even shows it mounted up where it goes
Use a propane torch to heat up the old o2 sensor. It will help get it out a little easier.
I love that O2 sensor socket
It's the best
Those rear shocks are a pain in the back side. You don't have to remove that metal ring on the steering wheel. Most pullers have long enough bolts to accommodate it. There are a lot of damaged horn contacts under the rubber horn button that will also make the horn not work.
It’s just like working on an s10 nice
YES I AM ONE OF THREE WEIRDOS
I would've used a little WD-40 on the O2 sensor. Those are not fun if they decide to snap off
I drive one of those ugly things
Have you ever replaced the the whole battery cable assembly? I just got hired to work on these and of course my first job was to replace the whole battery harness and I am at a loss…cables to battery, starter, engine ground, 2 into one smaller ground to frame and then to ground under coolant jug.. cleaned and buzzed all ground spots to a shine and even a new battery… and I have nothing.. zero power anywhere..checked fuses.. wth am I missing?
Doesn't sound like a grounding issue then. The two main power feeds are on fusable links tied to the alternator stuf
@@PostalDog94 yeah I just don’t get it.. there is zero power and did this outside in torrential downpours today.. I had to go to my new boss and tell him I have no idea what’s going on. Kinda sucks
