Just want to add to this that my 06 monte had a 35mm CV nut but it has the 3.9L V6. So not all will be a 33mm Mine wasn't loose but it sure hummed above 20mph. Just did it today.

Hey autorex. You were a great help with my sunroof on my 2010 f150. I got one question tho. I have everything lined up but the speaker pillars on the front are being weird. The headliner isn't coming all the way down like it's supposed to and the weather stripping seems to be too far away than what I remember

I enjoyed the video very informative however is the torque spec I have for the CV axle nut is 155 foot pounds

You can get bolts off with red loctite on them. It requires heat though. You literally have to melt the loctite to get the bolt off. Otherwise, you are correct, red loctite is impossible to remove . I can't find the exact torque rating on it, but pretty much even the best air tools won't bust it loose without heating. My educated guess? Over a thousand ft lbs of torque.

Is it better to use ac delco or aftermarket hub bearing?

Is the procedure the same for the rear ones?

I was wondering what happened to you. I'm happy your still uploading. I wanted to respond to your vid. on replacing the ignition assembly on the Honda (I thing it was an Odyssey). Are you taking question on this topic? I have a starting issue that I need your advice. Thanks! Craig

Most common starting problem is due to the immobilizer not being programmed to the new key. You can have the stealership program it, or find a buddy or small shop with a high-level scanner. As a last-resort, you can have a locksmith cut a non-chip version of the new key, then stick the key from the old cylinder (or at-least the head of it) somewhere near the immobilizer antenna.

@@AutoRex101 Yeah, that's great advice and one of the options I'd narrowed it down to. Here's the crazy part. I found a link on an Acura forum regarding the key fob issue when it contacts anything metal. Apparently, any metal object like duh other keys on the key chain can interfere with the comms b/t it and the immobilizer. I had only a key ring with the key which was the problem. I took the key off the key ring and voila it fired right up. This is something both Acura and Honda dealers are aware of. Anyone with this type of immobilizer on their Acura or Honda is a potential victim of this and I'll bet the dealers aren't even informing their customers.

You don't put red loctite or any other loctite on the caliper bracket or caliper bolts. Antiseize yes, but not loctite. With the correct torqued on the bolts it will not back out.
