    Excellent video. Just did this on my 2018 Silverado and all I can say is I’m glad I was in the comfort of my garage vs. in a dark parking lot somewhere or on the side of the road. Definitely more involved than what I think it should be for a battery replacement.

      I always have a small toolkit but now I need to make sure I have dedicated tools that I know will get this job on the road. Mainly enough extensions to reach down but wow that's involved for a battery change.

    GM certainly could have designed this easier in my opinion.

      @@TheSundaeDrive Exactly right. I changed mine out a little over a year ago and didn't realize how much time it would take. I was able to just loosen the screws on my overflow for the antifreeze and get the old battery out and the new in. I bought a 7 year battery so I wouldn't have to worry about it for awhile. I keep my vehicles for around 15-20 years before I purchase another one due to the high cost of vehicles. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

    You don't have to touch the coolant reservoir. Look at other videos showing that you rotate the battery and pull it forward and then up and out.

    1/13/24. Had to use your video to help me remove this dang thing. Luckily I ran across your video. I used it followed every step and voila. This thing is way more complicated than it should be. You did make a comment about how nice that Gm put that cushion on the cross bar to help reduce the pain of you accidentally hit it. But,that may be true. But what else is true. Is that they totally screwed us the way they put this battery in that position. Anyway,Thank you for doing that video. I truly appreciate it and you. 👊🏽🤓👍🏽

    Hey I know this isn't the correct video but since it's your most recent one I'm commenting her for visibility.
    I'm looking for a 6L80 "Billet" converter. My 2015 is in desperate need of a converter and I've heard from multiple people that this is the one to get. I saw you said that it was linked in the appropriate video but the link provided does not seem to be the correct TC. I'm not very knowledgeable on all of this in general so maybe there's something I'm missing..

      It was pretty simple adding the 2nd battery, Keyline 12V 140 amp dual battery isolator kit, 2 fuses, 2nd battery…just got to remember to put the ground from 2nd batteries through the Chevy ground loop next to original battery
