DONT EAT THE BLUE LOCTITE! Calling all Mechanics... Cummins Truck Vibration FIX??

What happens here

Using a cordless impact driver (specifically a DeWalt model is shown) for the nuts and a wrench to hold the bolt heads, remove the four bolts that secure the carrier bearing housing to the truck's frame. The presenter emphasizes the need for a wrench in tight spaces to prevent the nuts from spinning. He removes the bolts one by one, noting how easily they come off after soaking. Once the bolts are loose, the driveshaft will drop.

Goal: Detach the carrier bearing housing from the truck frame.
