Ok Im an idiot and still cant figure out how to embed a youtube video

Heres a little video/write up deal on how to get a saddle tank out.

 

[Drey]

Any thoughts guys? Or is my acting career in the dumpster before I started?

I actually liked it. I love educational videos. Now do one showing the best way to lower the 205 out of the truck without crushing my skull.

Ya gotta have Mikey to just bear hug it out of there. Thats how we got my 208 down.

241's and 208's aren't that heavy, a 205 I would not do like I did your 208, I'm sure I could do it if I had to but that would be asking for trouble.

heck a 205 is childs play compared to that big ol boat anchor 203. that thing is a royal pain to get in and out of the truck

 

[mikey_d05]

A 205 weighs ~140. That's enough for me to stop and try to figure out a better way. A 203 is closer to 170, that's just too much for me to bench press when it's greasy and awkward.

 

[dbreid]

Ha! I tend to like to keep all my fingers unbroken and my head undented, so I plan to use a crane. There isn't one piece on my truck that is worth more than my own flesh. No bench pressing greasy transfer cases for me!

I'm going to cry FOUL because there were no drive train or mufflers in that truck. You were able to reach the bolts easily with an impact. I bet that job would be two to four times harder with a transfer case and mufflers in that truck.





















Great Vid Btw.

 

[Yobtaf]

Just wondering what cordless impact your using? Looks like it works well.

 

[Drey]

Snap-On 4850HO 1/2" impact

I dont use air anymore. This thing has more snort then any 1/2" air impact we have at the farm and we dont even have a 1/2" AIR at work.
