You know what is really impressive about Dave? He's quiet. Not in a scary sort of way, but in a doesn't see the need to convince the job to get done sort of way. Very impressive Dave!

@MickayG 26 дней назад

He's the "imma just gonna do my job" type of guy, not attracting any attention to himself. He also seems like the kind of guy that moves slow, but works methodical and efficient and gets more done than most while working at 75% speed. I had a colleague like that, didn't say much and talked and moved "kinda" slow... but wasn't yapping the whole day, just minded himself and his work and got more done than anyone else... AND cleaned up after himself. Best guy to do a job with, 'ol' reliable'.

When I worked in Germany the TUV test includes body alignment ! Drive this and it's a 10 year ban. Grrrr

@fallenshallrise 26 дней назад

This is what freaks me out with all types of vehicles. We are counting on the reaction time of others so we don't die and it doesn't help when people have no brakes and no tread on their tires (or the wrong tires) so even if the driver has above average skill and reacts quickly to a situation they have no control are plowing into people anyway. Also why do people who "upgrade" their cars with aftermarket rims always cheap out on tires from some brand nobody has heard of like Xeneos or Zufang or something. There's a similar Nissan Pathfinder in my neighborhood rolling on mis-aligned cheap alloys with bald tires. "Upgraded" but dirty and never maintained.

All it needed was a rotted out frame full of spray foam and tape. Considering how they manage tyres, I bet they never changed the brake fluid either, and it's water content helped rust out the line.

My father used to get 80,000 miles out of a cheap set of bias ply tires on his 1965 Volkswagen. That was the only car in our family that got that many miles off of a set of tires. I had a 2003 Impala LS that needed new tires every 25,000 miles. When the tires were being replaced on that Impala the rack and pinion steering gear unit also had to be replaced because it started leaking fluid. So it was a set of tires, rack and pinion, and wheel alignment. The total bill for that Impala was about $2,500.00. I sold that car.

@dangingerich2559 26 дней назад

No one does a better job on interiors than our Hispanic businesses. Uncle Emilio is now my good friend, even did a seamless repair on my Tesla white rear seat. The local Tesla body shop saw his work and marveled at it. They redid my '71 Ghia Convertible and my '68 Chevelle, look and smell better than new. It's a pretty little truck.

That wasn't the inner carcass of the tire. What you were seeing is the NAZ or BAZ strips. The actual first stage (or inner carcass) doesn't really have the structural strength, so a thin strip of a specific rubber compound - about an inch wide, is wrapped around that first stage, then the plies, then the tread. STILL; however, probably time to think of a new tire or two...

Great video! In my youth I was truck road service and fixed flats on semi's. I use to tell the driver " I can see the air in those tires" ! Your narration at the parts washer sounded like my ex- wife!

ROUGH TRUCK! When I get those tough seals, I use a stiff putty knife with a dead blow or an oscillating tool with a scraper blade.. That's not a posi rear end. What's with the reluctor ring on the ring gear? I would pull the spider pinion shaft and check the side gears. They may be frozen to the carrier.

@isaiahwelch8066 26 дней назад

The reluctor ring is for the electronic system on the differential, in terms of the locking axle. Way it works is, the reluctor ring is used in conjunction with the ABS and vehicle speed sensors to essentially tell if one wheel is abnormally turning faster than the other. Under normal conditions, whenever a car or truck makes a turn, the outer wheel, which is on the opposite side being turned into, e.g., a left turn, with the right rear wheel turning faster than the left, is programmed into the software logic for the vehicle ECU. That way, the axle doesn't lock up under normal conditions and cause "Poor Man's Posi Hop."

@Digidoc316 26 дней назад

@@isaiahwelch8066 Thanks for the heads up on the reluctor ring but I'm still not understanding. Yes, the wheel speed sensors and the differential reluctor can send data to the computer but, without clutch packs or a solonoid-actuated locking mechanism, how does the rear end lock up? More importantly, why was it locked up when Dave held one wheel and Ray couldn't spin the other wheel?

I would deflate before I worked on it, too risky.

When I was young, I got tires (and rims) from salvage yards. Saved me a good penny. Sometimes tires were not even properly driven on (those tiny rubber threads still on it) and that for around 10-25 % of the new price ( and, being on a rim and balanced even cheaper still).

And this, kids, is why there's a thing called annual vehicle inspections. At least in the civilised world.

@jtjones4727 26 дней назад

I live in a state (Alabama) without any type of vehicle inspections. I'm not sure about Florida, I don't think they have them either. In fact a lot of these Southern states don't have inspections. That's how you end up with all these cars with straight pipe exhausts with no catalysts driving around on bald maypops, engine light has been on for so long the bulb has burned out. Makes you think.

None in Western Australia which is why we can run around in shit boxes but we don't get rust

@mllarson 26 дней назад

Minnesota also doesn't have inspections, at least not where I live. Maybe the Twin Shitties is different, but none in the rural areas.

Good one Ray. It’s cool to see you guys working together. Those tires are crazy . Back in the day the I never used gloves in the washing. You just clean your hands in the clean nozzle fluid. But it did dry crack my hands. A little jergines lotion fixed that..

@TokuHer0 26 дней назад

If you do make a "more entertaining than watching painted grass dry" t-shirt, I think the "Slightly More..." part of the phrase really puts the cherry on top

@jiminsav 26 дней назад

So, while you were cleaning that diff cover, I went out and painted my grass. and your right, it was better then watching it dry.

They made a lot of black and silver f150's in 2005. I bought one new! It was a great truck for the 75k i put on it.

once my brother wanted help changing a flat. when i opened the trunk for the spare tire it was so badly worn the sun reflected off the exposed steel belts it nearly blinded me.

I think it was just an ironic lapse. I know this guy. Went to school with him. Very smart. He an his brother border on genius. He may have been duped. My boss sure cracked up...told the story till he passed.

Got an 08 of the same flavor. Got the diff bolts out except one. Couldn’t get my dry wall silicone cutting knife out by last bolt one . Totally wedged in by last bolt. Started wrenching on said bolt and snapped. Resealed everything except for said bolt. No leaks to date . Next time I reseal will weld a washer then weld a nut Ray style. Don’t wedge your nuts.
