This is it folks! That last and final episode of the Chevy Tahoe. It’s time for this baby to hit the armor all shop then on to live at it’s final resting ground in the salt belt of NY! To bad really, it seems like a pretty decent vehicle despite the mileage. -Enjoy!

Put a belt on the thing
The block is cracked near motor mount
I do enjoy the videos with some Mrs O vs Mr O banter 🤗
Your the bestâ¤â¤â¤
Was getting worried part way thru that the Tubes was gonna stop me for age verification. 🤔
Im impressed Eric! He knows word for work to manic Monday! Lol
I'm 3 years late on these, but I liked them!
Nice dress Mrs O
I would need to do the Timing belt and tensioners and pulleys noise would drive me insane other than that good for another 100,000 miles engine sounds good enough and it's clean treat her to regular oil changes and you have a 350 thousand mile motor before it has to go off and be scrapped I was wrong in part two.
Well can't be right all the time I'm married and under the thumb happy wife happy life 😂
That gear oil had an additive in it
2 out of 3 ain't bad 🎶🎶🎶 L o L 😊😊😊
Your the bestâ¤â¤â¤
Great vid with nice camera work and editing. You really sucked me in which really helps the learning experience. I was so locked in that I was terrified you were not going to take me for a test drive at the end. And after a full three part mini-series. I mean I dont think I even fast forwarded that much/GREAT CONTENT.!!! I'm telling you if you would have just cut the vid without a test drive I would have never watched again. LOL. But you delivered…!😊
Did you torque to factory specs
That belt or pulley has been driving me nuts gor 3 videos 😂.
The used car guy wants 11k for that thing? 15 year old Chevy truck with 250k on it. I hope he finds a sucker and makes a hefty profit.
Hunting , Fishing and a good woman is all you need in life. Looks like you hit the trifecta
Great videos! And usefull information.
Your the bestâ¤â¤â¤
fine job
I have a 05 Silverado 4×4, 2500HD with 8.1L , Allison Trans. With 293359.7 miles.
I found all three parts interesting, and I can't believe someone put the wrong switch in it.
Anyone would assume that it was the correct switch. Like you said, though, it's a auction car. You made putting that part in easy. That's experience for you, and of course, the lovely Mrs. O was there to assist.
Fun one but still a Chevy
Gutless? Really?
is there a reason you use napa over o'reilly or advance, or autozone or rock auto, etc?
That's a southern truck for sure.. Great job Eric!
I know I'm late to this video but did you get a new switch from dealer, aftermarket from Napper or from junk yard with differential?
Watched parts 1-3 today. Tues. Jan 28th 2025.
sweet channel…i pick up some new technique every time…
U kissed Valintino?
Looked up the Fluid Transfer Pump by the part number and amazon wanted 125… come down and find your link and the price drops to 99.00, You save me 26 bucks Thanks….
I thought ny state had rust issues on the frame.
Great job
Not only dose miss O hunt but helps on fixing vehicles you are a lucky man and she is good looking too lol love the channel and the sarcasm and comments have a great day
I was doing shit just like you just did when i was 60 Lifting crap instead of using a jack.
Lumbar fusion at 64.
I turned 65 in the hospital after 1 of 2 additional surgeries. Titaninum fron my shoulder height to my pelvic bones.

In January 2025 I'm on LTD getting my muscles un- atrophy.
