Nice instructional video. Everybody should do a test run when you're not rushed to get the procedure down. The Toyota jack is bare bones and unstable, so I purchased a 6 ton bottle jack that is more stable, with plenty of reach, that also stores in the same area as the original jack. Great tips for all. Be safe!
Great👍 Tips... I've been in flat tire situations where I had No Pipe Extension to increase Leverage Angle and remove lug nuts... Garage Mechanics used impact hammer to install lug nuts... Way Over torqued! Happy Trails...! Gung Fu Cowboy 🇺🇲 San Francisco Chinatown
Helpful video. One tip we could’ve started off with is how to get the damn jack out of side panel! Haha. I found it in the manual. I kept pulling, and you have to twist the knob to lower the jack to loosen it up enough to pull out.
Lifting from the axle tube is a secondary option. I don’t recommend it because the jack is contacting a round surface instead of a flat surface. Had a jack slip out when lifting from the axle tube one time. Luckily the wheel was on and I was not under the vehicle. I try to lift from the frame only.

Ty for the comment! I was having the same problem lol
Jack trick was awesome!
👍
IS the jack steady under the axle? If the vehicle rolls, it seems like it'll slip right off
You can block the other wheels to prevent roll
@4am4life-cc3oh what can I block it with mister ? Can you make a video on chocking tires? Sending love from the island mon
@@kangvbnVisit your local Harbor freight and they sell a rubber wedge chock for this situation.

Make sure it's a hydraulic floor jack and you won't have to go under the vehicle just slide it under and jack it up
“It is called a “Cheater bar” and this gives you leverage.
I’ve kept one in my truck for years.
excellent job. thanks.
@kaelisaac much appreciated..thank you!
Wish you would of demonstrated actually taking of a lug nut, especially the one with the locking mechanism
Hello...thanks for the insight...stay tuned will do a video on that.
Cheers!
Stepping on it is a bad idea. You can hurt yourself or snap the lug.
Just buy hydraulic jack much safer and a jack stand and I have a battery operated impact wrench to take off lug nuts much faster
Did you just say these nuts 😂
Seems so...lol
😂😂😂😂
