The VTM-4 fluid is transmission fluid. Use your favorite brand. NAPA sells Eneos dual pump fluid if you don't want to buy from dealership. Amazon sells many different suction guns or fluid extractors You can pour the lubricant into them then force into differential or transfer case. If you own a Pilot don't forget to service the transfer case!
Thanks for watching! I think your comment was meant for a different video.
Doggone it. I was having trouble removing the fork so I went to UA-cam, found your video at the top and you didn't show how you got the fork off when you were having problems.
You have to pull the bolt all the way out of the clamp portion. The bolt captures the strut tube in a groove.
I'll stay with fluids from Honda
Yep.
What is he using please explain in detail.
It’s a bearing separator…
Great video, I bough mine in November 2021, evidently it had little maintenance done, I've been doing the service myself, only thing I haven't changed is this fluid, I had to change the differential, (had my mechanic do this one, since I don't have the room and back there I did not have the skills), did not ask if he changed said differential fluid. That's a great dog assistance by the way. Great job!
Thanks for watching!
Is there any reason to get 4 6-ton ones when I already have a set of 3-ton ones?
Depends on what you’re working on. The 6 tons are taller which work much better with trucks and suvs.
Man ! Thank you so much you just save me lot money on my 4 runner ..
Great to hear!
does the white cap funnel comes with the oil when you purchased it?
It came with some gear oil I purchased a while back. It does not come with the Honda fluid but you may be able to find something similar at your local auto parts store.
I have the same mower @luca and Bentley outdoors
Thanks for watching!
I like the 6 ton (different brand) because of the wider base.
Thanks for watching!
Just did mine,got allot of help from this video thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome! Thanks for watching.
To answer about the pattern, it wasn't great but not terrible. It should be higher up on the drive (convex) side. Ecgs and Timmy the tool man have s 98 min video on it. They set the Pinon and carrier using measurements without the seals or sleeve installed, verify good settings, then add those things in end retighten to the measurements that produced a good pattern
Thanks for watching! It was quiet so I was happy with it. New owner likes it too!
So there's a large side cover seal on the passenger side. Trying to replace it. How do I remove the old seal and install the new one?
Have you came across anyone who figured out how to bleed abs system I just purchased a brake booster and still goes to floor don’t wanna buy anything else and wanna obtain factory abs system
What model year is yours?
Hello, are the 3 tons, Craftsman ?
Yeah, older Craftsman.
I have the same Craftsman, and I want to upgrade them, after I watch this I’ll buy the 6 tons lol thanks
I wish things would be this easy for oil as well.
Absolutely!
Thanks for sharing this. I will probably be doing this today.
Thanks for watching!
No
Why? If it isn’t old, and you’re just doing a repair, it’s totally ok to reuse it. Throw your money away if you want lol.
Thank you been looking for some new jack stands
Thanks for watching!
My 2004 Pilot does not have a transfer case. On '03 to '05 Pilots, transfer is done in the transmission itself

Did you need to replace any of the clamps?
I did not have to replace any clamps.
What is the washer's size? Thanks! Great video!!! (Does the fill plug have a washer?)
Try this but verify fitment first. a.co/d/dvBdoXZ
Great video! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
That's what I use.👍
Right on!
Tried this with an even smaller cup on a 2023 Ridgeline. Didn't work, because the crossmember is in the way of the cup, no clearance. What vehicle is in the video?
This was a 2009 Ridgeline. Our 2016 Pilot is different, and I use an old bent license plate as a drain trough.
Try this ua-cam.com/users/shortsvji0Peort-0?si=r8j08wZFptQIRJD4
@@kauffmansgarage I have plenty of old license plates that I can use as drain troughs. I will let you know how it works, thank you!
Good idea, I've been using a 1 gallon freezer bag. The cup looks like it's easier to handle.
@@johnlopez3001 that’s a great idea too!
If you don't know what the torque specs are then why are you filming it?
Because I’m not concerned with it. You can look them up if they are important to you. Been doing this stuff all my life and while torque specs are important, they are irrelevant in some situations when you are experienced.
@@kauffmansgarage It's 32
You could index the drain and fill plugs and the housing
Thanks for the video! I've been dragging my feet all winter on doing shocks on my Tahoe... Now just have to get motivated before the heat gets here 😂
Thanks for watching! Pretty easy job.
what tire size are you running and did you have to modify suspension for it ?
Tires are 225 70 15 General Grabbers and I only installed new struts. No lift. Thanks for watching!
Tengo el mismo problema lo noy hacer
Great video! Whats the name of the rack? Going to see if the seller has another. Thanks!
Hey, thanks for watching! I bought it on Amazon and here is the link a.co/d/5pPq0wN
To dispel any further confusion, use the labels of drivers front, passenger front.....NOT left and right because that's completely dependent on which way the direction the is standing. After ALL THAT, you never said whether or not you fixed the soft pedal....wtf???
Left or right is as if you’re sitting in the drivers seat. Standard reference in the automotive world but I see your point. Yes, this fixed the soft pedal.
@@kauffmansgarage Yes, I understand standards, I spent 10 years in the industry as a service writer/ service manager, but there are many, many people out here that have zero experience in the industry and have no idea what that standard is....EVERYONE know drivers' side, passenger side. Glad it fixed your issue.
Except it's not only people from America watching. Left and right is just common sense that it's from the perspective of sitting in the car and considering that's universal whether it's a right or left hand drive, it is way more logical than your opinion
@@bradsaint9779 Right on!
Got GT radials on my F150 great tires👍
Good to hear!
Question how often do you need to change the diff fluid? I have a 2007 awd, runs grwat has 260k tho ive owned it since 175k and never have changed it lol oops on my part but it runs great and just haven't never really worried with it but after seeing this video I'm wondering about it
Consult your owners manual, but I would change every 30k miles if it were me.
Ruby!
Ruby tha dawg 😁
Do you have new coil part number?
This is the one I used a.co/d/577VYWQ
Thank you
Sweet old school 1st gen CRV ! Love my Honda’s 2011 pilot. 2014 Ridgeline and my favorite beater 2005 CRV with 210k
Right on!
Great video! Appreciate you! Fill it till ya spill it!
Thanks for watching!
I own a 2011 pilot and have put a deposit down on a 2014 Ridgeline. Great succinct video. Will be very helpful for future maintenance projects for both.
Glad it was helpful!
Anglais Good morning my 2020 crv displays "AWD verifier 4RM" on the dashboard, do you have an idea? THANKS
I do not, sorry I can’t help.
Hey yeah bro I just bought the metallic purple 3 ton jack and 2 pairs of gray 6 ton jack stands. Already they are paying off! I’m excited for all the jobs I’m about to do
Congrats! Makes a difference for sure.
I sharpened blades on my bench grinder for many years. Now I use a flap disk on my angle grinder. Faster, cooler and easier to duplicate the existing angle.
Yep, going that route next since this mower works pretty good. Didn’t want to spend a lot of time on it until I knew how it was going to function. Great tip!
I thought you had a new concoction for the ultrasonic cleaner or maybe your machines run better in high caffeine test fuel! 😉👍
😂
love these old snappers I got 33 inch 1985 model..
They’re tough old machines for sure. Built better back then!
Thanks, this just sold me to get the 6 tons for my Tacoma.
Thanks for watching!
Getting ready for a rotor purchase and was curious why the two sizes. Maybe one for the 2WD and the other for 4WD?
Either that or for 4 cylinder models.
How have they held up?
So far so good!
Correction: This is a vertical shaft engine, not a horizontal.
Fantastic. I was hoping it was this simple. I'll be doing the same thing but I'll clean up the tubing a bit to make space for an air compressor.
It was very simple!
for the paint, when u were running the diff did you apply some resistance to the input flange?
Yes, preload was set during the install process and checked with the torque wrench.
