When is last time you changed trans fluid and filter?

Depends. The 5.3L is an engine option for that year vehicle. If you are swapping one 5.3L for another, your job is made much easier. The engine block and cylinder heads don't change much and should be fine. Where you may face issues is with things such as the engine brackets, intake and exhaust manifolds, and other bolt-on items. It is best to try to use those from the old engine if possible. If you are trying to put a 5.3L in a truck that had a different engine in it, now things get stickier. You may have engine mounting issues. You will probably have to change transmissions or get an adapter. You may need to change out the driveshaft. The exhaust will probably also need to be modified. And, last and most important, the engine computer will need to be reprogrammed for the new powertrain installation, or thing won't even get off the ground.

Is that to take it out or what, You tube has some videos for this.

If the problem is only to one side, Check your front tire to the side your having problems with. It could be a tie rod or steering linkage that is damaged to that side

the term totalisateur refers to the tripmeter. I do nt know your location however the vehicle is most likely a canadian vehicle from Quebec area as the term is french. Now why it came up I am not familiar with the french systems.

Could have damaged the front sensor, but you'll need to get the computer scanned for trouble codes to proceed with testing.

replace shift sensor

follow the fuel line coming from tank ! you will find it !

That could be something like the wrong fluid in the tranny or it could be time for an overhaul. Depends on the mileage and use
