In a previous video https://youtu.be/gMHYnWLQ5As I started to replace the rotted subframe on a 14 Subaru and received a lot of push back saying I was ripping off the customer because it wasn't rotted. If you feel comfortable saying this subframe is safe and would like to install it on your car I'll happily save it for you 😁
Cheers!

Was it really rotted?! https://youtube.com/shorts/WOf91EL9znE?feature=share
How much did the job cost? https://youtube.com/shorts/URubuTYKFb0?feature=share

There seems to be some questions of my Integrity folks. A couple of people sent me some nasty emails about the Subaru subframe saying that I was ripping the person off because you can't fail for surface rust in New York state and that is a true statement. However, when the side of the subframe is completely Swiss cheese and you can stick your Hammer through it on both sides, well, that you can fail for, trust me. same thing here.
Completely rotted out. You can see straight through it. so I guess before you judge my character and rectitude, rest assured folks, I don't change those things for the fun of it.
Looks like scrap metal
I would not like to replace one of those either
Ohh hey look its the guy who ignores his comments
They don't know the difference between a subframe and a submarine
lots of stupid viewers….Trust me
Na that trash
Oh wow! I can see through that and people can be annoying sometimes.
Haters gonna hate. Keep doing your job as you have been.
Bruh tell those people to catch the first bus to that hot place.
Creepers who question your integrity are not fans and they do not do quality work like you do. I believe every community would be a better place if they had at least one mechanic with your integrity.
Come to the mid west, thats one winter
My daughter saburu frame rusted out. Honest mechanic alerted her. She traded it in. Detroit
Excellent work man. Keep up the great professionalism. A master at what you do.
No a sub frame like that you could be sued for if you passed. Lol not sure if that's true but if somebody really wanted to push it they could get your license to do inspections revoked.
why even bother with trolls…screw them
Did you say. SUBARU???? 😂🤣😂🤣😂😍
NOW … thats the SUBARU's I remember!!
"""but they have such great snow flakes Commercials""
I knew there was a reason, it had to be something like this. Often a video doesn't tell the whole story. The most irritating thing about rust is how even with good maintenance, you're racing the clock.
Just use duct tape.
here is the fun thing with inspections you can fail a car if you deam it unsafe and that is unsafe. Just because it will pass by the letter of the law dosen't mean you are doing the person any favors by passing an unsafe car, if they don't like it take it to someone else.
Who are these people thinking Mr.O would rip someone off.
Eric stop justifying your actions to ghosts on the internet . Remember your a mechanic God . Do not bow to fools !
Love your show .
Australia Loves ya 2
Not even scrap metal
Let's stop and rethink that folks only can have an opinion based on they own knowledge, and sometimes that isn't enough or even can't compared to your mechanic skills or experience señor , so let them be happy 😁 and we all can be happy watching your videos like we have been doing it especially when Hanna jumps as a helper lol it sounds like me and my daughter working together lol
Cheers from new Orleans boss ….
Nelson the buster here ……..
Opinions are like assholes everyone has one unless they've ever done work like that they need to shut up.
Everyone’s a expert on those Interwebs . I know I don’t want it work that damn hard for nothing either
You’ve shared enough gold to the effect, if Eric O told me the sky was falling… I’d keep my behind inside. Don’t argue with trolls. They’re living in your head rent free. Dont give ‘em the satisfaction
Fuck them. You’re one of the, if not the best shops out there.
glad the customer chose an honest, conscience mechaic.
All Subarus need to be scrapped
Anybody that's ever changed one of them knows you didn't change it for the fun of it.🤣
Are used to watch the guy all the time he’s cool
Damn Eric, anyone questioning your integrity should get off the computer….Tires Plus (or "minus" My sister in law learned when her LR wheel spontaneously detached from her car less than a week after having all 4 replaced) probably doesn't like their "Junior Assistant Parts Installer" using their computer for YouTube.
I can't tell you how much help you've been to me, recently especially so as I have just started wrapping up the 08 Dodge Grand Nemesis SxxT. Your engine swap saved me more time than I can even begin to tabulate.
Compared to my 67 D200 Sweptline Camper Special, this van is comedically engineered. MOPAR has become SUBPAR
easilly plated and repaired without removal so yeah you ripped them off.
Nobody wants to change subframe s for the hell it.Armchair Mechanic's pipe down.
Copy that brother that surely wasn't road worthy god bless you
Good job
You keeping the roads safe in USA we in the U.K. have the M.O.T. After a new car is 3y old Every year after that
Sketchy shops and idiots with milwaukee hand tools trying to call out an actual mechanic.
wait you have an integra with a subaru subframe?
I wouldn't even give this the time of day man let em email
Too many keyboard warriors
let em know something then 😉
The instigators will never stop keep doing what you do. great videos and tons of useful information for all those who appreciate it keep doing a great job 👍🏻
Same thing happened to our Subaru
even with surface rust
the whole thing is covered in it means it going to cancer out sos just good preventive matance
Sir. I am a certified YouTube rust engineer and I applaud you for keeping your customers safe and doing what is needed to do that. 🫡
Ripping people off is normal.
