Visit www.EVsecrets.com & grab my new EV Conversion book + video package!

The car is now ready for the arrival of the electric motor!

In this video (the longest yet) I go about fixing up anything that hasn't yet been done in anticipation of the new motor!

I fixed the last of the rust on the bottom of the passenger door, I replaced the steering rack boot, put fresh oil in the gearbox, installed the stereo and broke a lot of tools!

The motor has been shipped (well, airfreighted) and the CV Boot got the better of me, so now there's nothing left to do but wait...

  • mate, invest in some decent tools. You'll have them for the rest of your life and they will serve you well repairing and servicing your vehicles. I just watched you trying to get off a drive shaft nut with a 300mm shifter bought from super-shit auto....I know you're a kiwi but come on :)

  • as with others comments - fantastic videos - well done all of u - so good 2 c how its done rather than just promo look wot I did vids of ev conversion. Go Kiwi!

  • another comment on getting off hard nuts - from anutha Kiwi dyier - put a length of pipe on the end of the spanner - increases the length of the lever - easy peasy then.

  • Bro, take the cotter pin out of the spindle nut, pop the plastic hub out of the wheel, put the wheel back on the car, put the car down, and use a breaker bar and proper socket to loosen the nut.

  • I laughed!

  • at 7:10, the key is to use your back. keep your legs completely out of it!
