So let's bust out the floor jacks and the jack stands. Connor Scottish Water Killer. We're gonna get the jack stands and we're gonna pull these front wheels off and we're gonna do a real nice easy pad slat brake job on this particular ramp. I Mean you know you don't have to have jack stands under it? I Could probably avoid that, but because I'm not crawling under it.
and if it was gonna fall since these newer trucks are so high up in the air, it falls, it's not actually going to fall all the way down. And Crush you. but I don't feel like getting a crush today. So I'm putting jack stands under it.
What do you guys think? should a three-ton do it? It's aluminum. Yeah, we'll use the three ton. That could be just fine. Stick that guy right in there.
One more clicked up. Get in there tight.
Ray you should do your videos half in the bag just like Scotty
Brother. You have good content but this was already on your video. That’s one you right take your short. Two your acting like you making fun of Scotty but you actually piggy backing him by even putting him in your title. Three go make another video titled “I quit” just make sure to take Eric this time. He only puts up with you because your a star. Imagine trying to work with him a day. One day.
There's not enough money on Earth to get me under a vehicle held up by Horror Freight, Made in (insert communist country with no quality control here) jacks and jack stands. Especially after the fiasco of the jack stands failing, then the replacement jack stands having welds that failed.
Do yourself a favor-stop supporting countries that hate the US and buy American.
Scotty says forget all that stuff, he recommends this product called "battery in a can"
I can't believe people actually think Scotty is a mechanic. He just plays one on youtube. Its amazing he hasn't killed anyone with his stupidity.
Jack stands
I thought Scotty was funny. But then I found ChrisFix and your channel Ray! I look forward to every upload!
Who, in their right mind, would actually like Scotty K? You need many shovels and a giant front end loader whenever he opens his mouth.
Hydraulic machines are fascinating.
They all perform amazing tasks.
And they all leak.
I really love watching your videos But I'm really disappointed you're not above making fun of other mechanics I had a Lots of respect for you.
Buy a Toyota! Best car ever! Toyota doesn't pay me. You should buy a Toyota. Toyota, Toyota Toyota.
ClickBait!!!!!!!!!!!!
End of cars as we know it! Click Here.
My Scotty impression. 😆
Honestly I watch Ray, Scotty and Eric. All great and unique in there own ways.
I watched one Scotty video and that was enough for me, he's just obnoxious and loud. Did he really say you don't need jack stands on modern trucks because they're high up? If he did that's just bonkers…
I don't get it honestly… is it about scotty talking he is using steel jackstand and not aluminimum LOL?
I helped an associate with the changing of his brake pads on a Ford F150 and the right rear rim was seized onto the axle hub which we tried the shade tree mechanic method to knock it off. That was a no go so sprayed with blaster oil and deep penetration oil and started on the front. We got driver side done but the passenger side front sum one stripped one of the locking lug nut onto the stud. Another no go due to tools available to complete the task so brakes were changed in a cross pattern and have to take to a tire shop to remove the lug and seized rim. Sucks when the repairs do not go as wished cause you can't plan repairs
In my experience a 3 ton jack shouldn't have any problems as long as the jack can handle half of your vehicles weight then 4 in each corner you can fully suspend a truck.
Lotta people also don't take into account weight of tools or stuff in a bed or a heavy work box
I may not agree with Olive Scottie's advice And I really don't watch his channel But but quite a net worth of 10 million dollars he must be doing one thing right
Scott,Lord of miss information,crappy thumbnails and Now
Liability!
And don't forget, according to Scotty, you can just let those calipers just hang from the hose. One of the few I have blocked on YT.
I don't get it. Did Scotty really say it's safe to get under a new truck with no wheel on a jack or did he make a clickbait video and said it was only safe if you leave the wheel on I feel like Scotty would do that (he totally has done stuff like that before lol)
Funnily enough there are times i dont use a jack stand. (Usually when working on a single wheel where i dont have to be under the car at any point) but only with my own jacks. Of which are serviced regularly and get new seals every couple of years.
However i ALWAYS use jack stands when working at some of my friends houses as iv had two of theirs collapse while lifting let alone getting under it.
need to tell your wife…check insurance…OR scream when she sees you under a vehicle without jack stands
It sure would be nice to have level concrete to work on. So jealous!
Who the hell uses those useless jack stands!!!
You starting beef with Scotty bro?
Working under my vectra, I now use two 2ton stands to hold it up, and two extra 2ton stands under the jacking points. Just to feel safe. 8 tons of stand capacity under just one axle on a 1.6 ton car. Extra safe.
Reeeeeee…..
It would be stupid not to use them.
Leave Scotty…ALONE!!!
Scotty who?
I've never wanted to not use jackstands, end of story.
It mite not fall far , but weighs 3 tons , bound to hurt, possibly disable. In this job , staying healthy imparative.
Wow I wouldn’t even think about using an aluminum jack stand.😂
You should return those stands, they did not spell the material correct so you cannot trust the quality.
🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
Scotty fans ARE reeeeeee just like scotty.
Scotty is often wrong. I used to watch his channel, until I started REALLY listening, and realized he was full of 💩. Not to mention, My Husband HATES Scotty's voice. I was watching him mainly because he was in NY State at the time.
THEN, one day, I was reading some of his comments, and someone mentioned Eric O. and South Main Auto. I dropped Scotty like a "hot hot hot" bolt, and was watching Eric O. exclusively. Upon reading through comments on HIS channel, I discovered YOU, @RainmanRaysRepairs. Now I get to watch TWO absolute PROs!!!! Both far away. BOTH "The best of the best of the best SIR"! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Mr. Ray is 1259 miles away from me… Not really doable unless I'm in Fl visiting family.
Mr Eric is 192 miles away. I would only drag my car there if I had an issue no one could figure out, as the towing bill would be over $500.
I'm kinda stuck here. I have TWO finicky, older cars, that no one except Midas wants to work on. I got ONE guy near me who will work on them, but he GROANS every time I pull in.
I take, or tow it to him, when it croaks.
I had it towed to him twice.
1st time was a dead fuel pump, left me at the Doctor's office 4 miles away, tow bill was only $50.
2nd time was the Alternator+battery job. Tow bill was only $80 for almost 20 miles. but it took him A FULL DAY to change the alternator due to rusted bolts and having to torch them out. I had him put on a new set of belts while he was there to make him happier, as he had to take the old, but not worn ones off to do the job anyway. My serpentine belt is a double sided groove…. That sucker is like $120 ALONE.
When my VW gets towed in, It's a MINIMUM of an $800 bill. Every. Stinking. Time.
I always say NO when someone wants me to test a theory with my life….🤔😜
Jack stands are one of the things I'd prefer be made in steel, and not aluminum
Rev up your engines!
It's going to be an ENDLESS MONEY PIT
I don't know why people praise you on this YouTube channel. You're on a pedestal. By the way shave them Sasquatch arms they're disgusting
First you plagiarize from other YouTube mechanics. Now you're making fun of One. Let them do their thing you do your thing quit freaking stealing off people and making fun of them. Freaking loser
Scotty? You mean "Old Yeller"? that guy that keeps shouting and pops up out of the trunk of a car yelling random stuff so (like a broken clock is right twice a day) something is always correct (or at least sounds valid)?
Gave up on him long time ago, can't even remember te name of his channel anymore 😂
