In this video we bring you along to work on the rear trailing arms on a 1993 Chevrolet Lumina! It has been a long time since one of these babies was in the bay at SMA. Luck is with us heavy this day and we push it to the edge. -Enjoy!

UNBELIEVABLE…………
Me and a buddy are about to dive into this right away. Loads of work needs done on her behind.
Trailing arms. I never heard of them until now. Wow. Thanks for the video. That's one less thing I didn't know; and there's still plenty I don't. Peace
I like them gloves, did ya get em off the tool truck or somewhere else
Thats a p o s guy to do something like that..freaking thief..i hate thieves
The car gods are shinning down on ya..gotta love it
I dont think you would know how to act if you worked on a vehicle without any rust..lol..i feel your pain cause i have same issue down here in south jersey
Those were the engines pull one bolt and rock forward to change spark plugs.
I was so invested in those bolts!
i think you shudda otta give us some big nasty ugga dugga anyway….find a piece of steel and ugga on it for us folks out here who don't own a nice repair garage shop and never will……a day without ugga dugga is a day hardly worth livin ….. so don't make that mistake again…..always have a piece of bad metal handy always always always to keep the folks shut in back here at home happy for a couple minutes every day……bob hope always had a joke ready and the divine miss MM always had a boopsie at the ready….so you shud have an ugga dugga at the ready…..no more excuses….ok soldier?
Small Town Auto appreciates videos from the "RustBelt"….Life's good in the south.
I'm getting these replaced on my 93 Lumina next week.. they are not completely snapped in half yet but they are pretty Rusty and bent up looking
1 dollar scratch tickets are like rust, you don't want them, go buy a 5 or 10 dollar ticket, also you should tell people to sub and like at the first of the video that way if people don't watch till the end they still hear it
Now this car is ready for another 50 thousand miles…
Need more mrs O cameos.
Hey man do you know how to put the bumpstops back in when you chang the rear shocks on one of these cars? I changed my shocks and the bumpstop bushing is connected to it but it just popped off when i unbolted the lower bolts on the knucke
I cant believe a 1993 Lumina still exists where you live let alone 2 of them…
Supprised you can get parts for a 93 lumina
Tonight tonight is your night bro Movie reference lol
Yeah sure love living Out in the sticks 3 S's Shoot shovel shut up lol
Those first gen W-Body cars hold up really well. I had a 93 Grand Prix GTP and a 92 Lumina Euro Sport coupe. Both looked almost new underneath! The GTP actually still had some if it's inspection markings on the suspension! My 96 Bonneville SSEi however was an absolute rust bucket! Turns out the H-Body cars had big issues with the wheels wells and strut towers rotting out.
I’m 31 with the same attitude as my man Vinney.
You know working on cars sucks when you're amazed a bolt comes loose with just a torch and an impact
Oh Mr O, you are a star! I couldn't stop grinning all the way through this one!
What great fun that was. All that fun and get to learn some stuff too. Thanks like always Eric O. and thanks for the Arizona shout out!
A Lumina without frozen bolts AND the spring insulator is intact? Pure fiction!😁
The underside of that car was actually pretty darn clean!
I like vinny… Nice addition
Good video. Funny. Love it. You can tell how happy this made you!
Rnnnng……rinnnnnng
Haa Haa – great show. Watched enough of your videos and wrenched enough myself to know how not often that happens. And yes great job sending your friend to get scratch tickets! Guess you didn't wintoo much though 🙂
I was actually excited for you 😂
Smoke, torch, big nasty!
Did they ever pave the roads 2 years later lol
Eric is that a girolift brand truck lift? Looks very similar to the girolift brand lift I used for about a year. Very well built old full hydraulic lift but slower than death.
What's a corn stand ,English viewer
Only lost 2.00 dollars cheer up you have a beautiful wife and kids and you have a great utube channel
No Substitute for smoke wrenches.Esp in your area!!!!!
Hey I like watching your videos on here and I am not the smartest person alive but don’t you think that was a close call with that torch and that gas tank
93 Lumina? Take that straight to the scrap yard
Haaar! When you had to push tha axle ahead to get that last bolt in – my immediate thought was you'd have to realign the steering wheel so the customer wouldn't go in the ditch 'cause they were so used to the dog tracking. LOL
A tip; I keep one of those old fashioned ball joint "pickle forks" handy for putting the hurt on bolts that are hard to move through bushings. The nice tapered tines with a two pound sledge, I haven't had one yet hang up and refuse to move. If you can just get those tines to enter under the bolt head even a little, the two pounder does the rest. Another tip; before wailing away with the two pounder under a rust bucket – put on a hoody!
Is it just me or is the mono leaf springs broken
The failure to win was a mathematical certainty because the winners ALWAYS claim this was the only ticket they ever purchased, therefore you never had any chance of winning once you handed over the 2nd dollar…
I guess they don't have that on the APV . That's what I have the Chevy lumina APV . 1992 still running.
Lotto is a waste of money unless you win 🤣🤣, I dont like gambling like that then just last week someone from my own town won the weekly jackpot, he getting 1k per week for 20 years😥😥😥 why couldn't that be me, oh yeah cause I never play it to begin with
I think you woulda had to purchase the tickets with your lucky hands. Vinnie was obviously not the lucky one that day
