No anger involved doing this big job. Years ago i worked as a young boy in a garage you would hear a macanic losing the plot with a tough bolt then it snaps and the customer foots the bigger bill because of the man hours to fix it fantastic content again boys.

Thanks Richard, i've never seen the point in losing the plot its only nuts and bolts at the end of the day.

@colinturner6628 Жыл бұрын

It looks to me that the black anodised rings were for removing the bearing and the silver rings are for putting the new bearing in, the rings should clamp nice and snug on the new bearing and have no movement once the two halves of the rings are bolted together.

@HomeBuilt Жыл бұрын

Its a great tool, done a few of these now since the video came out. Turns out a lot of garages refuse to do them or want to charge crazy prices for it.

Ive had tgis for years, came from machine mart i think. I did see Lidl had extendable ratchets in this week in 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2.

@Taz6688 Жыл бұрын

The Gen2 bearing setup can be a nightmare, they can come right out, others feel like they are welded in, be careful on the removal tools, some are all black finish, other silver and black, but they can be silver for taking out or black, cheap sets don't always have the instructions like genuine tools.
