I know at some point someone sent Ray a pair of nippers which are the proper tool to cut those hydraulic line hose clamps (dikes are designed to cut wires, not straps) but a pair of tin snips also works.
we don't have to see everything, we understand
It is fantastic, how he in every case, and immediatly, seems to know exactly what to unscrew, even though he works with all brands of cars and with all models!!
The speed at which you undid that second but and bolt clearly shows that you're a (happily) married man
Why in the world would they tie together two such critical systems as brakes and steering for the sake of saving a tiny bit of space?!
Those were rough to work on in the army especially since I was in the field most of the time when they went bad
Like the calipers mine are old school not digital like yours
Next time, use a socket of the appropriate size to push the retaining clip into the hydro assembly.
Ray Ray sounds like a distressed turkey do do do do laughing my ass off
I've always laughed at people that "save money" by reusing O-rings.
This is definitely why you always replace your fluids, unfortunately everyone forgets the differentials, brake, and power steering fluid until it becomes acidic and causes leaks and then people complain that it's expensive, when maintenance is cheaper and will can prevent seal and hose failure.
I wish to never repeat failed powersteering and brake pressure loss again…not fun on these vans when going down hill
Nuts and bolts go hand-in-hand. If you say you’re taking off a bolt instead of a nut, we know what you mean.
Wouldn't it be better to drain the master cylinder and steering fluid reservoir first before reinstalling so the new booster doesn't get contaminated?
Lol, I thought I was the only one who did the "bring out your dead" thing with rotors 🤷♂️
I put black tape around my universals, They work much better Like your videos
The rear rotors did look good enough to not valid a machining though. But no big deal replacing them either.
I first thought about the power steering fluid entering the brake system and that would mean a serious brake system flush and replacement of all brake system components.
However if you'd encounter a Citroën from the 80's then the same fluid could be for both brakes and power steering. Yet another French way of doing things. Never ever have ordinary brake fluid in those vehicles.
GM never ceases to come up with gimmicky crap ideas that make no sense to anyone who has to work on the things later lol
Ya Ray is back
Cannot but think that mixing brake fluid and power steering fluid creates a dangerous situation and expensive repairs. Like car accidents unnecessarily.
What kind of a scammer “recommends” half worn rotors are replaced? What cock.
Thank you!!!
Just a quick question, why do I continually see you struggle with a screwdriver on worm gear clamps instead using a 5/16 socket?
Brake fluid change intervals vary from 2 to 5 years. Everyone should be aware of this 'critical' maintenance item.
I'm not sure if I hated the hydro-boost or the master cylinder/ABS module combination like the one on the Chevy Cavalier and Pontiac Sunfire.
I love your attitude Ray, I'm not nearly as jovial as you are working and running into problems. Of course I'm in Canada where you're always fighting rusty parts ans snow, salt etc. Any apprentice would be lucky to train under you!
Man that is one gigantisized clip de geezuss!
Keep the video’s coming. Your doing great
Do those to hard lines present a problem if they rub?
Hydro boost brakes… Got to love them…
Your wobbly bits seemed extra wobbly there, maybe time to see the ToolDoctor – Hi from the UK btw
Much worse
That was a awful do-de-do. 😂😂
Nuts!
17.30 i dont thing the tangs engaged in groove
What a cool guy you are any other mechanic would of made them take all gear out back first to make van lighter
I wish those stainless braided flex lines at the master were more common. The solid lines can often be a struggle to get started while trying to get the correct angle. Having a bad back & knees that part always hurts.
I don't know about your colleagues but you got me doing the same thing you do when you are coping with the phone 😅
Saving the caps is a great idea. The problem is remembering where you put them when you need one.
Your speciality! Cargo vans!😂
watching this video and many like it, I am suprised the big wigs tool suppliers havent come up with a video camera like a smaller version of the go pro with a 7 inch screen so the likes of Ray can set the cam up in hard to see places and work off the screen
Is The Engine a Diesel To Have a Hydro Boost Brake System…
There is a cable lift behind have you fixed it?
From the vids I've seen so far you need a magnet tray for your bolts and nuts. Easier to keep up with them and you can toss and they'll stick to the tray's magnet. Might help you a lot keeping up with them. Just a suggestion.
First time seeing a hydro boost brake system. I always thought larger 2500 and 3500 work vans and trucks would do better with air brakes. More stopping power with the heavy loads most carry
That’s nice bang your wrench on the customers vehicle!
WTH? Those rotors had ample meat on them and could easily have been machined a couple of times.
Where are you from man this is America we do not do things in millimeters you sound American we do things in inches we described things in inches not mm nobody knows what the hell that is
