LOL.....🤣 "That's the torque spec. When your arm slams into the wheel well" Byt the way, Happy Birthday Jimmy.

You got that right! Haha, thank you!

@sirsparksalot 11 ай бұрын

When manufacturers warranty expires their inputs on labor rates should expire also. An hour is spent pulling on/off the lift and test drive.

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Exactly! These times are for brand experienced mechanics on 2-3 year old cars at most.

@dangleebols 11 ай бұрын

First 😊 😊 😊 Hope you had a brilliant birthday with your family, did you treat yourself to anything nice? ………..but now its time to get back in the boat!

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Yes! Thank you, we went to dinner a couple times and almost bought an ice cream cake. But at $33 we decided on a couple flavors of ice cream and my wife made a cake, $12.00. Haha win!

Jimmy! Never been a fan of those Milwaukee ratchet I'm the only one in the shop that has the Snap-on Longneck brushless and I also have the seal head Matco and I got to tell you they are so much better than the Milwaukee. I can't stand Antiquated Milwaukee paddle switches. I understand saving money on impact sockets but the Milwaukee prices are pretty much in line now with the other manufacturer so you're not really saving much

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Yeah, not long ago the SO wasn’t as good, but it been improved lately. I think my long 3/8 Milwaukee was $239 because I had a battery and charger already. I just like having one battery type so there is always one charged. Not a great tool, could be much better, but it works and has a 5 year warranty. Rethink it once it’s out of warranty though. ;)

@mlieser1230 11 ай бұрын

Those hub bolts sure were stubborn. If it was a GM product with the yellow Loctite it would have really been a battle. Have you considered one of the right angle air impacts for situations like this? Eric O at South Main uses the Astro right angle with quite a lot of success up in the rust belt. Hope you enjoyed your birthday weekend!

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

I’ve looked at them, I see Capri and Astro sell the same or similar one rebranded. Might get one eventually.

Jimmy I had to give up pulling wrenches because of MY rusty knuckles . lol

@wallyg.2409 11 ай бұрын

Jimmy, just wondering why don't break out the air tools once in a while. Those cordless tools are for convenience and sometimes not all they're crack up to be.

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

I just prefer not having to grab the air hose, once in a while when it’s really needed. Otherwise all electric.

@oldbiker9739 11 ай бұрын

rust is the new loc-tight on them ford bolts , my 2015 mustang GT has longer bolts then necessary all over the place ,,and I don't know why .

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Yeah, they love having 4-6 threads sticking thru to get her rust. :/

@joehyundaitech7961 11 ай бұрын

and this is the reason why I will not part with any of my air ratchets

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

I have a Snap On knuckle buster, great ratchet. Just be careful, haha.

@jasonlecreux1175 11 ай бұрын

Another Honda tech here, sadly rear hub bearings on the newer generation Hondas seize really bad. It’s almost like they are welded together. I’ve seen a tech pop a wheel stud out and use a bolt to push against the knuckle to try and push it out, and he cracked the knuckle through the backing plate. I also don’t know if it’s true as to why those spacers are between the caliper bracket and knuckle, at least up north here in Canada after 4 years the spacers are unable to be removed in 1 piece they seize in so badly.

@jasonlecreux1175 11 ай бұрын

Mind you, I honestly don’t think manufacturers consider the northern/rust areas of the world. I’ve seen some 5 year old cars be completely rusted away

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Yeah, rust and corrosion are our nemesis for sure! Manufacturers want to make it thru warranty.

@matthewsetzer9896 5 ай бұрын

Nice job ,Jimmy. Any advice for an owner of a 2017 fusion like myself ?

@JimmyMakingitwork 5 ай бұрын

They are good cars, just keep up with the oil, change it before the manufacturer recommends and if anything like a noise starts, have it looked at. Nothing really unusual to watch for on them. :)

@joehyundaitech7961 11 ай бұрын

Jim hi would you check it this way in the front as well ?

@JimmyMakingitwork 11 ай бұрын

Yeah, any bad races results in a chatter in the spring.

@user-lg2gf9wd2n 24 күн бұрын

Considering having a shop do this as I dont have the tools to get myself out of the jams you did. What did you charge for this job?

@JimmyMakingitwork 24 күн бұрын

It is about 2 hours labor plus parts. So roughly $500 or so all together. It can vary by area though.

@1DrunkSocialite 6 ай бұрын

So what it like for the awd fusions? Same procedure?

@JimmyMakingitwork 6 ай бұрын

Yes. very similar but there will be an axle to deal with that may make access to the hub retaining bolts a little trickier. Usually extensions and swivel sockets will help with that.

@1DrunkSocialite 6 ай бұрын

@@JimmyMakingitwork Thanks for the quick reply. I was starting to work on mine then noticed there's a whole axle back there lol
