Question

Whats the trick? Whats the magical secret for making this happen. Do I need to take the engine out? Do I need to just sell the truck and scrap it? Why is replacing a line crucial to the life of the engine completely impossible? Why is this quoted at a $1000.00 repair for a $50.00 dolar part? It's a work truck it doesn't even have power windows it should be easy to work on so a guy can get back to work. Why is it clipped on inside where it is impossible to see, or impossible to take off?
What company sells magical shrinking rays so I can shrink my arms and get to work on this engine? Is there any surgeons in town who can chop my arms off and add a few extra inches?
This is not right. There is little to no information availabe online as to how to get this repaired.
Why is everything under my 2004 silverado caked in rust? I paid 30k for this truck in 04 and every single piece of it needs completely torn appart and re-built due to rust and extremely poor components.
I can't sell this to somebody. It would be criminal to try and sell this truck to someone. Even if I get the line replaced upgrading to a propper aluminum anti corrosive line and get this thing running again how long until the next crucial line rusts through?
The brake lines look like burried nails. I can't just rob another human being and look them in the eyes and sell them this truck. Are my breaks gonna completely loose pressure on day? The emergency brake is rusted or non existent as well...
This truck was purchased in Omaha NE, where it is needed for outdoor use and snow removal. Why do I look at other cars on the street, older models than mine, and they are not completely rusted out underneath?
The engine only has 104k miles on it. I don't have a garage. I dont have access to a lift this is my only vehicle. Is it going to be equally impossible to replace the other lines that are rusted through?
I saw a video about newer models rusting out in the dealership lot. They video explained that the Silverados with a made in mexico sticker were obviously showing more rust than the stickers claiming made in USA.
What's the secret here. Be honest.
