  • DIY four to five lug conversion and wheel bearing replacement. In this video I show you how to do a 4 to 5 lug conversion on a Nissan 240sx owned by UA-camr SaabKyle04, but this applies to any 4 lug car. You can also use this process to go from a 5 to 6 lug on a truck or even 6 to 5 lug if you want. You are basically replacing the wheel bearing and hub assembly so this lug conversion applies to many different cars and trucks.

    Quick tip: When replacing brake rotors, it's usually a good idea to also replace the brake PADS. If the old pads still have plenty of material, at the very least, resurface the pads with some heavy grit sand paper...

    His videos inspire me to do vehicle repairs myself.

    I dunno i don't even have a car or driving license bc im 14 but your videos are just so entertaining since im very intrested what comes to cars and other vehicles that has 4 wheels and bc of your educating and entertaining videos i might be able to get that summer job from the local garage and i dunno about how these things work in america or other countries but in Finland we have this TET-week (työ Elämään Tutustumis. Im too lazy to translate atm but you can translate if with some translator or read my desciption btw) wich is that one school week you go to somewhere you wan't to work for one week and ask if you could go and work for them (without wage wich sucks but we have own day for that work too and they might give you a little tip if done good work) and in here where i live is only 2 car shops one is that garage and other is body shop so thanks to these videos and that my grandfather and father knows lots about cars and they will teach me too im starting to get a hang for this but i've heard that in USA you can get your drivers license when 16 years old and if that's true im so fucking jealous bc in Finland that age is 18

    • @jameshawkins809
      @jameshawkins809 7 років тому

      MudJugBill you're going on personal opinion for you but if you actually loved your job it's not like working. Maybe your management or pay sucks. It also makes your skill set even better since you do it daily so personal projects would have a better fit and finish. I'm an electrician love what I do and just bought my first home and have many projects planned out.

    • @jameshawkins809

Not I'm an electrician and have been one since 2008. Currently building a nightlight for my daughter's room. It is what you make of it and you shouldn't be going around trying to kill the dreams of a 12 year old just because it didn't work out for you.

    The reason it is recommended axle nuts are discarded after use is that many are torqued to yield and so strength is compromised after being torqued. Sometimes this means the nut is permanently stretched so its not even possible to thread it back onto the axle. However, not all are torqued to yield, follow the instructions in your service manual - if it is recommended to replace it, they're cheap, might as well.
