I'm retired master mechanic. I would do the same thing to my vehicle. For a customer, I would only quote the job to replace the gaskets on the oil cooler too. But on my own vehicle I would take the chance that I could probably fix it the same way he did.
I have a 2006 lbz now has 422,000 miles but have a coolant leak in that same area 🤔. I will check it out.
Good job. How many miles are on your dad’s truck.
Just under 300k at this point he’s the one owner since factory had the truck since 07 drives it every day
So you got all them gaskets and o rings, loosened up the bolts that hold it to the block then half assed and just replaced 2 of the gaskets 😂.
Only replaced what was leaking it’s been over a year still no problems worked great👍
