Questioning my life choices…

[geetar]

I did one this week on a Dodge. It was evaporator core but I did heater core too while I was in there.

When I did it I think we had something like 200 labeled ziploc baggies of screws, nuts, bolts etc.

As suggested by the youtube video that coached me through my endeavor, I used egg cartons and numbered the slots for the particular screws for each step. Reverse for re-assembly. Didn't have any extras, and up til then, the extent of my mechanic resume only included brakes, oil, and wiper blades. Thank goodness for Youtube!

*Disclaimer: I have put a rear end in a couch a time or two, also

I love finding ways to challenge myself with this truck. I’ve done all kinds of fun stuff! The next thing is going to be injectors.

I had to go back to page one to find out why it's so complicated. I finally found the reason "13 Ram 2500". I thought those trucks came with an assembly manual well as a full factory repair manual?

Pretty sure he just missed some commas.

"it is getting painted, suspension upgrades, and new camshafts (every 10-15 k miles) In the engine"

that is correct. sorry I didn't proof read before I submitted my comment.

I was just saving you a headache.

engineers and mechanics don’t get along.

It always amazes me where engineers put oil filters on some vehicles...

You and I must define "fun" differently .
