I had to drop the starter, unbolt the positive battery cable (where it tethers to the chassis) and try just about every conceivable angle to get the damn thing out!!
@@aaronfixes8400 man it was not an easy job at all. Some videos really make it look like cakewalk but surely isnt. When said and done i ended up removing heat sheild on side of motor block (just 6 screws,simple) also the starter (two long bolts) even then it fought me the entire time but its really just that heat sheild that comes attached to the motor mount. Without it job would be simple. Appriciate your video
Acceleration made the engine "jump" or move under the hood, alternatively you can have someone standing outside looking at the engine while the other puts it in drive, hold your foot on the brake and press the gas pedal at the same time to see if the engine moves without vehicle moving ( just another method to diagnose). Try at your own risk*
Look at all that room on the two-wheel drive I just got done doing my Denali all wheel drive and man what a job
Is ok to remove the heat shield?
Super easy did it on 2 post pulled starter and slid it out
How do you do it without removing exhaust manifold if it is rubbing
I live in Florida how much you charge to do this job on a 09 Tahoe 2wd?

So you didnt actually use thay 15mm ratcheting wrench? Just used it to balance weight with jack to oil pan?
Correct! Just to distribute weight

How did you determine it was passenger side mount? What were the symptoms?

Well for the passenger side you would need to do it In reverse.
Also lower suspension on right side do to more wear
LoL getting it back in is giving me hell
4 wd is fun! Yes
Thanks bro it did help..

Did anyone have problems with the bolts🤔bout to do mines 🙏😁
Pro tip you don't need a jack just have your wire hold the gas pedal in reverse at 1500rpm
great job
