Astonishing for some of us to see a '05 vehicle that hasn't rusted into oblivion! Nice work Clay and Wally.
🤣”What is it, Bill?” Awesome content gentlemen. I have this same exact problem and will get on it asap thanks to you guys👍🏾
Hey Clay I own a diesel repair shop as well and our tech's always complain when they have to work on junk. But I always remind them that someone else's junk pays the bills, and if it was easy everyone would be doing it. Great videos!
You are exactly right. Bring that junk to our shop we love money !
Well Clay, this was a great video, and true Heli-coil repair does a fine job for the repair. But that don't mean I gotta like it. LOL!!! I hate putting Heli-coils in a stripped out bolt hole. Love the video! And tell Wally to quit setting down on the job!!!! LOL!!!!
Good video clay y'all have a good one stay safe 👍
In my opinion I think a 6.0 and the 7.3 are great motors
Good informational video guys
Lot of times,we get the mig welder out to extract broken off bolts.Basically weld a nut on and the broken off bolt comes out the first time usually
Great job!
Using a tap guide will help guide the tap until it gets started. A tap guide can be made from a steel block with a clearance hole for the tap drilled square thru the block on a drill press. I made several guides to tap hicoils for holley carbs on dodge trucks.
I actually have one and one comes in the helicoil kit ....... just lazy !
Great video! I got a 6.0 with stripped/cross-threaded bolts so this is incredibly helpful. Will this work with the fuel rail bolt holes as well?
Good Video thanks
My nephew has a 6.0 diesel he did head studs and new heads with the cab on
Nice fix. Now I just have to figure out how to do this on an E350 van. Hahahaha
Go through the doghouse
About to redo all my bolt holes my truck leaks so bad i hate the smell of burt oil. Of coarse id have a broken and stripped bolt for the rears
Is it normal for them to strip, if so, why? Finally, good video.
People not using a torque wrench. It’s too easy to look specs up so really no excuse other than being lazy.
Thanks for the torque settings...
Nice video! Damn that's a nice ring! Did you win the Superbowl!? 😂
Thanks guys…got down to the 11 bolt and broke while tightening
2005 6.0L
It’s easy fix.
yup, easily happens when yeah try to swap out an injector at 8pm, after couple hang ups and realize suns comin up soon you gotta head to work lol
only reason to strip a 6.0 valve cover is abuse and cross threading. i have worked on that motor while i was at ford more then i like to remember. seen alot of them threads wreaked as well as the torx bolts messed up on the oil rails. good job making it right again
People are too lazy to torque stuff I don’t understand either. It’s way too easy to look up specs and do it right the first time. It only takes a few mins to do it right
@@KoonTrucking they usually don't think too
How did you do the helicoils on the passenger side on the bottom... those are the ones that I have that are stripped?
What’s the part number great video I need get this done
If you would use a keen sert you will never have to worry about the threads ever coming out but good video
Did miss where you listed the correct insert? link?
How do you get the back lower passenger side ones 😂🤦🏻
You said wally doesn't do anything!!! LOL clever bill doing something else...
Is there a certain size helicoil?
There the ticket used them a few times use black tread locker it ain't never coming back out
This is one tuff crowd hating on Fords and making fun of Duramax's I didn't see any Dodge comments oh well the night is still young. Broken bolts fix broken wallets any day of the week.
Dam ..this video is awsome
Wouldn't have happened if it was a Duramax. Lol... Awesome video like usual. I always enjoy watching them
No the Allen bolt would just be a circle when you get to it
I have a 6.4 how do you reach the top of the back on the left side I broke the head of the stud off
It’s hard to reach but you can do it
There’s no way a drill is going to fit back there but we’ll see
Still a better engine than the 6.4 lol
Freeeee, free falling
At least it ain't a head gasket or cooler lines😂
No kidding
Can I get nappa part number?
Your diesel might be old if it has oil rails. LOL
You wear a ring?😬
that's dangerous asf
Ford is JUNK. Thank God for Chevys.
