Hey from an one old man to another really liked your video . What happened to you you just disappeared? Wish you did a follow up on the rear differential I have the same situation on my 79 and was hopping you would show what was wrong with yours so I could see if I want to go that far or just put it back together and sell it. Well wish you’d come back and do some more videos on the vette . I hope your still with us.

Do you have a video of a C3 1970 Corvette Replacing just the rear axle/differential gasket without removing the entire axle/differential from the Corvette. Thanks for your videos

Old man where did you go?

You are going to have to heat up and burn that rubber bushing out beats taking that assembly off

A little humor,but painful to watch😅

Does anyone know what happened to this guy? Good vids and he did every video needed to remove the rear but dang man didn’t do a video removing the rear end itself? Hope he is ok but I dunno…

Was it hard getting that bolt that broke in half on the rear drivers side center spring mount out of the case? Any ideas on how to prevent that from happening? Liked your video. Thanks for doing it.

It's not to do that at all and it's the diff it's self and you got to take the spring and all the half shafts and everything off of it and you got two bolt on each side that has to come off and you got four bolts on top that need to come out and you need to take off the exhaust to drop it out of the car

Oh yell you don't have grease fittings on your u joints on the Corvette

I ve worked on real cars sent's I was 5 years old so I know all about cars and I am also related to Louise Chevrolet so yes I know all about them and sometimes the bolts brake or strip so you got to be careful

I am doing that right now I ve got to put it all back together now and I hope nothing goes wrong I have a 1977 Corvette sent's I was 16 years old and I never had to do anything to it but now all I am doing is working on it all the time because I let it set in a garage and that is because my grandpa got me this car

Still working on the Corvette? Miss the videos.

Put an open end in the nut and use an impact on the bolt. It will sheer the cotter pin right off. No use fighting with them. Like you said, it takes longer to remove the cotter pin than take off the nuts and bolts.

Thanks for another video. When is the next one?

I love your videos. I’m about to do shocks, strut rods, and diff snubber on my 66 Stingray. I’ve definitely gotten some good tips from your videos. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Any ideas on how to reconnect the differential bracket? Took it off fairly easily but putting it back on, the bolt holes are not ligning up with the frame holes. I can't get the middle bolt aligned and back in and it is so close!. I have tried jacking up the bracket but it is not budging. It does align if I take out the rubber bushing on the front bolt but can't go without that! 😆

Can u remove the body bushings n put new one on a 79 c3

Great energy. Good luck!

Using side cutters to grip (not cut) the cotter pin works better than needle nose pliers.

Pretty sure the distributor cover was part of the routing of the spark plug wires. The wires ran from the plugs, through a metal sleeve below the exhaust manifold, to back of engine, and up the cover to distributor. Having said that, since you have an ACCELL coil and not OEM design, not sure the cover will fit.

all the efforted you explained is greatly appreciated

No need to remove the differential bracket. There's just enough room on the passenger side at the differential and drive shaft connection that you can get at the drive shaft bolts. The rear of the car has to be raised so both wheels turn. Look up through the gap between the drive shaft and the bracket and have someone slowly turn the wheel until the drive shaft bolt comes into view. Remove the bolt and have the wheel rotated until the next bolt on the drive shaft comes into view. Removing the differential bracket is way too much work.

I think that distributor shield maybe to shield against noise coming thru the radio (electromagnetic noise maybe)? Mine came without it lol. But I’m still chasing down some electric issues so no radio yet so can’t check if I need it yet. Also heard of “cheap insurance” emergency cable release kit you can install I n case the main cable snaps.

Have the exact same problem. Waiting for your next video hope you're OK.

Can't wait for the next one! 🤘😁

A lot of times the black gloves are a little thicker than the surgical gloves, so a little more durable....they still tear, just not as easy.

Ratcheting wrenches are definitely a life saver in small spaces. I highly recommended some!

Hey Old man! New subscriber....you're only two away from 200!!! I've got my second 77 that I've just started on, and plan on doing a frame off restoration in a couple of years, so keep making these videos and I know I'll keep watching them! I never did the rear end on my first one, so these videos will come in handy when I get ready to do all of this. As for what kind of mechanic am I? I graduated from Universal Technical Institute, then worked for BMW for around 5 years....after I did my first C3, so I'm not quite God level, but I've gotten my fair share of experience. 😁🤘

Well done. I like your format. Good angles with the camera and explanations. My project is a 1970 Corvette, which has been taken apart, so this is helpful for me to see how it is suppose to go back together

They made c-2 till 67 in 6& was the first year of the c-3

This is an underappreciated channel. Keep up the great work! Love the videos and great video editing. Never boring and it seems like we never miss the details.

I just started doing this on my 1975. looks like I'm going out and buying more saw blades.

Great video. Beautiful car.

They are all hard to come out, some people are better at video editing.

Thank you. very much. great video

My cable seems a bit long, what would you suggest to make it shorter or can you show me how to snake it through so it’s just the right length ?

Hello, all right, my name is João Paulo and I have a problem here in Brazil with a 78 Corvettewhat happens when I lifted the rear part I noticed that the rear axle on the left part is coming out of the differential and there is a lot of play in the wheel what could it be

my son and I are rebuilding a 1978 C3 and I can't tell you how much I appreciate your videos. 😃

I wish you were my neighbor. I hope your channel continues to grow.

Your awesome and give great advice and details about the classic car in my opinion. I'm on my second C3 and definitely happy to subscribe

"while we're there." The 3 most expensive words ever uttered and simultaneously, the 3 words to cause a project to become endless. (from experience here and all over over the planet......)

NEW SUBSCRIBER!! Just came across your channel. Enjoyed the show, got a 1978 corvette I’m going to start on, next week on my channel. Keep up the great work, I’ll be watching.

welcome to the club

Anxious to watch this however I'm not getting any volume.

Hi, i like those todo Videos, but i have a little criticism...the screwing sequences at the beginning are very very long...looking how to unbold 2 Screws is a little boring, please do not misunderstood, its only the effect that it has to me....as an 3 decade Vette Owner 😉

You need to change the title of your video to strut rods, not tie rods. Thanks.

Keep up the great work 👍 I'm currently using your videos as a reference for taking my 72 apart

Sadly soon all combustion cars and trucks including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Car washs will be forbidden too because they are climate killers, now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.!!! (BABVVEN & TEBBVEN laws)!!!!

good info thanks

Spiders love them C3s
