[ExodusFaces]

I think I should start making auto repair videos. I can't afford going to shops, so i HAVE to learn as a matter of necessity. I'll record myself the first time I do any repairs. Uncut. Swearing and bleeding included

[ExodusFaces]

GLASSES?! I don't need no stinking glasses! .... my eye itches

[chrisj52688]

that is a tight ass shirt

[johntrebec]

I'd take all those tools

[jonbirks]

Was this filmed in 1972?

[jayguy173]

@jonbirks looks like a late 80s early 90s quality of filming and hair styles

[maxixe]

He is correct in all places except for one ... I do not have only one set of eyes, but two.

[mustluvbikes]

Hail the mullet, may it ever linger like the glug, glug of a water bong and the smell of stale beer!!!

[yumyumsashimi]

Come on mullet man get to the point.

[vaccaro905]

@yumyumsashimi haha thats what im saying

[XysteRST205]

With a mullet like that you are certainly look the biggest tool lol

[smith284]

Where do you find the "cheap" tool he used to hold the rod while turning the damper nut. The one that was like a socket over a socket. What is it Called? I cant find it anywhere!

[11dbelt]

@smith284 did you ever find out what it is called?? Im doing this job now, and ran into the same problem

[alanator]

@11dbelt I think the tool you are talking about is a hex rotary broach

[UlfrIronwood]

Car companies worked VERY hard to make sure that top nut couldn't be removed without special tools. They hide it under immovable engine components AND make it fucking spin in place! Fuck car companies.

[vetteburna]

@UlfrIronwood The reason they do that is to prevent idiots from unbolting the center top nut while the strud is mounted on the car and having the whole thing blowup in your face. Its extremely dangerous to do this yourself.

[bubba0465]

ok i gotta problem. i have a 1998 chevy k1500 4x4 and its got a 3 inch body lift and i have not done anything to the truck since i bought it. can any one tell me why it rides like i have no suspension at all?

[jeanjones9154]

Shocks are blown or the lift was done wrong go to a shop and ask them to see if it's down properly if it is then check the shocks.

[tugguy85]

its a tire problem

[ShannonVenasse]

it's only easy to do your own repairs if you have an older car and ALL those expensive tools!

[sblspawn]

did you change the tires recently,must be the balance.

[69fordgreenmonster]

no the tires are not new but you might be right

[69fordgreenmonster]

[TheTarrMan]

[69fordgreenmonster]

thanks a lot for the info i think you r right

[TheGuyOnDownStreet]

it might be your transmission. is it an automatic? its most likely your transmission. maybe somethings wrong with your upper gears such ass 3rd or 4th gear or a syncronizer gear.

[69fordgreenmonster]
