    Alright, new flexplate is in and seated flush against the engine side. I verified this by spinning the crank until I was certain the entire plate was seated correctly all the way around. I then removed the bolts and put some blue threadlocker on them and hand tightened them back in and gave them...

    Alright I'll keep that in mind when I'm putting it back together. Hopefully if I do this right I won't have to deal with this again haha. That must've been a wild experience with your son :anitoof: Wow that's insane :eek:. It's something that sounds a lot worse than it actually is. The moment...

    Well I decided to take a closer look myself and disconnected the trans from the engine. Thought it was going to be the torque converter but lookie what I found! I wasn't able to tell when I initially took the flexplate cover off because the crack was impossible to see from the angle I was at. I...

    So I just did the test my buddy told me to try out to test for an issue with the torque converter. Based off the test results in the video, what do you guys think about it? Personally, I'm of the belief that it's a torque converter issue now. Anyone think of another test I can do or any other...

    I spoke with a friend of mine and he suggested the torque converter as being part of the issue. Like I said in my reply to Hipster, I checked my trans fluid yesterday and while it's bright red (since I changed it a couple months ago), there are now black streaks when I wipe the dipstick on a rag...

    The sound does seem to appear once the motor/trans has come up to temp. The original problem occurred 2-3 weeks back, and I swapped the lifters and bent rod a week or so ago. I'm in the middle of planning a move between provinces, so it's been a little tricky managing time to work on the truck...

    1995 K1500 5.7 / 350 TBI Engine Knock/Other?

    Hello, For reference as the title says, I have a 1995 K1500 5.7L 4x4 TBI / 350 with a 4L60E transmission in the vehicle. Other than the sound itself, the rest of the vehicle is functioning properly. 154 000km on the clock (I'm in Canada). Don't know if anyone has had this issue before, I just...
