    Great series. If there is a crash it should be with huge bus load of priests still drunk from Easter and time molesting little boys

    Used to be normal to use junkyard parts by shops on 20+ year old rigs.
    Surprised there was still a frame in it

    Packing bearings like that sure wastes time….I'll stick with my bearing packer. I do so many 4wd's I use marine grease. Hope you have a brake lathe now.

    Only way to pack a bearing they sell packers but there junk I cant stand them

    Getting in the wrong truck: been there, done that.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Richard Lucy says:

    Big o’ l gob wheel grease never enough! Haha 😛

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars RJB says:

    You can never use too much grease.
    You have to put Mrs. O on camera. It's always nice to see Mrs. O. 🙂

    It's sanitation truck operator.

    If the hub explodes and kills a busload of nuns I think they would call that divine intervention and "skipping a few rungs on the ladder to heaven" I doubt they would be upset.

    8 year old daughter quickly reaches into your tool box and grabs the air nozzle…. that is pretty impressive 😎

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars elwhastrummer says:

    Can't even count how many bearings I've packed over 40 years…and Eric just taught me a better way. Outstanding. You're awesome 👌

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars N. B. P. Davenport says:

    You can't replace everything you might as well buy a new truck

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars B. W says:

    More lube!

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Greer says:

    Nice job saving this truck and you did it for a good price!

    Im in Texas but thinking south of Iowa is better than any thinking

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mylan Berg says:

    Pack it up move away from the rust your all young yet South maybe Colorado

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jo10Mo says:

    Well they keep calling the shop cause you don’t answer the comments. Because I know I have left some question comment and never get a reply

    I jumped in a truck at a stop light thinking it was my boss.the look on his face was priceless.your not Paul is all I said before jumping back out .he started laughing so sorry dude that's fine is all he said

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tanya Anderson says:

    drill a new hole next to the old one and use a hardened Tek Self Drilling Screw to secure the tag . it’s strong enough to hold down roof sheet in a storm it’s strong enough to hold a tiny cable rag

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tanya Anderson says:

    years ago we had a young man come in the the shop and ask if he could purchase the “ special spring “ that installs in the Automatic 3 speed gearbox that turns it into a manual 4 speed gearbox ! lmao
    i shit u not ! it was so tempting to sell him a throttle return spring for $200

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tanya Anderson says:

    iv always always packed the inside hub full of grease . then after packing the new bearings with grease i dunk them in liquid grease then drop them into the hub . i use rubber grease inside and outside of the seal . been doing this for 40 years and iv never had a failure or grease push the bearing seal out ! i spin the rotor and hub while tightening down the axle nut . til it’s tight and then back off the nut 1/4 turn and relighted with my fingers . that’s where it’s pined into place ! speed sensor is also covered in rubber grease when installed .

    "Will realign at the molecular level and shatter killing a bus load of nuns down the road", I think there is a service bulitan for that.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jack002tuber says:

    The bus full of nuns are safe!

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shane Harrison says:

    Lol well the seal was behind the rotor maybe not as it should have been and anchored where it should have been seeing this again I remembered who I knew that did wheel bearing gas like that.

    owwwwww my eye

    I have unlocked and entered an identical ‘92 Jeep Cherokee in 92 and only notched something was wrong when my key didn’t work in the ignition. Later my Jeep was taken on a joyride. The lock on the ignition was punched and the claim adjuster accused me of not locking the door. After a poor fix of the ignition, I had a similar key experience on my own Jeep. I unlocked the door with my Toyota key and was confused when the ignition didn’t work. I then realized I was using my Toyota key. I then tried a wooden popsicle stick which worked to lock and unlock my driver’s side door. I don’t know it this was an OEM defect or the result of the joyride. Makes me wonder on the 3 or 4 times the Jeep drivers door unlocked without the correct key.

    Naw, that lower ball joint joint is not going to explode. It will be fine. Good job and Good nuts and bolts vid, Mr O. I watched all three parts. Trip to the salvage yard is always fun.

    they don't sell loaded calipers anymore.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars William Dawson says:

    Good series

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kevin Willis says:

    Maybe you've done one already and I haven't seen it yet, but it would be interesting to see an alignment video.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lawrence Post says:

    Garbage truck? Meals on wheels!

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Macluvin65 says:

    There is something truly cathartic about watching something truly jacked up, become all shiny new.

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jimmie Cox says:

    I have one better than the wrong car. Years ago my wife had a maroon colored coat. We were stationed in Japan. One morning we went to the electronics store on base. I was looking for a beta machine, (hey I said it was years ago). My wife was looking at her favorite music tapes. When I found the beta machine I wanted, I walked over to my wife and put my arm over her shoulder and said something like, what's a guy got to do for you to buy him a beta machine. From across the store I heard my wife call my name. Damn, she didn't wear the maroon coat today. Not only was I thoroughly embarrassed, but now I have to deal with this lady's husband. He was very understanding when I showed him a picture of my wife wearing a maroon coat. My wife took a little longer to forgive and forget. From that day on I always look closely at what she is wearing. I sometimes even take her picture just to be certain. Yes we are still married and yes the bleeding finally stopped.😆

    You pack the bearings just like my dad taught me.

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Larry Blatterman says:

    Love the California stops!

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars brad howse says:

    Yep I'm an old guy and I love my 2008 Ranger

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tom Bynum says:

    🤣🤣🤣 millennial anti-theft 🤣🤣🤣

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don Love says:

    Perfect amount of grease as evidenced by the queef upon spindle install.
    Bus full of nuns !
    Were they holding refugee babies?

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Travis Smith says:

    As far as the delivery person getting in the wrong vehicle, I've heard one story better. There are only so many key cut combinations. One delivery driver not only got in the wrong vehicle, but was able to drive it away.

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars darkwing4 says:

    When I put on a spindle nut,,, I tighten it as tight as I can make it with my fingers,, Then take it to the first hole for the cotter pin,,, Wah-La,,,, 🙂

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dependable Auto Truck says:

    i never bend the cotter key i just use correct length and drop in how can it come out next time saves a few min. but i know if you did youtube would have a fit

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ryan MacEwen says:

    No, it's the right amount, plus 10.5%

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jut Vaughn says:

    It may pull to the right ever so slightly. No offense.

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Adventures with TTFNCachn says:

    I really get cold chills with those napa crapa parts 🤢. Always better ones out there.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steve Elder says:

    My boss taught me back in 1972 to pack bearings the same way…
    Messy as hell but I've never found any way that is better…
    Watching you took me back….
    Thanks

    Bought a new titan xd and god do I miss a Saturday morning doing some brakes. I need another shitbox
