Greetings Nation,
I'm have some mechanical ability, and I don't think of myself of as a beginner, but the lower hose on my 2012 Colorado looks impossible to replace. I've searched the 355 site, and there's great posts on hose manufacturers and rubbing issues, but I couldn't find anything on lower hose swapping for idiots LOL. It seems like I have to remove the alternator or remove the wheel wells or have 48" long skinny arms. I do not have access to a lift, so I'm on jack stands, I can't even get the channel locks up there to grab the clamp...what a battle.....please educate the new guy, what's the trick to easily replacing that lower hose?
