    The Ford dealership should have a lock retainer clip. No need to even pull the door panel. It would be nice to fix that for them.✝️❤️

    I enjoy watching your videos. I see you used purple lube for the brake pins. I’m curious, I heard and read comments about using that grease on the pins is not good because the pin that have a rubber on the tip gets swells and the then get stuck. Is that true. ? Keep doing your videos 👍👍👍👍

    What’s the charge on rotor resurfacing. Been awhile since I bought new rotors but last I remember about 45$ new. But with inflation…

    I think this is my favorite one so far. Ray uses his knowledge and experience to help a customer stretch their limited dollars but keep their vehicle safe. That’s a partner a family can trust. RE: “Be aggressive” addendum – Hilarious! Moar buddy participation on videos, please.

    Reckless driving while filming. Nice! just FYI police can watch this and give you a ticket in FL.

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dr.Cosmar says:

    If my wheel breaks because my mechanic throws it, I think it was meant to be, and I'll just go ahead and buy a new one…no complaints…."thanks for the drop test bro, good looking out…"

    Did you happen to notice that when you were removing the driver's side steering rod that the end of the steering rack shaft was wobbling around in the rack body?

    So last year I drove from Niagara falls to Vancouver across Canada and I don't remember seeing a single vehicle on the side of the road. (I wouldn't be shocked if there were a few, it just didn't register as a memory)

    Last week, I drove from Nashville to Niagara falls and I counted 41 abandoned vehicles on the side of the road.

    It is wild the lax laws on vehicle safety in many states.
