    There are ppl rebuilding leaf batteries to give longer range, and or swapping longer range batteries from late model into older models. (I forget the details)
    Nice work mate. Keep going

    Really nice job on the vid Doug; this is the kind of detail that makes this a realistic DIY job for a decently experienced home mechanic.

    You could’ve used a pallet jack with a few pallets on it to lower, position then re-install the battery . Hope this helps. Thanks for the video

    I'm just about to try this maneuver on our 2013 Leaf, replacing the original battery with a 2022 62kWh. Can't wait to see the range after we're done with the swap. The original battery is still at about 70% SOH so I'm going to use the cells for home backup, which is a nice bonus.

    Someone should soon make an EV battery jack for the same reasons we have transmission jacks and engine removal lifts.

    I have a 2011 Leaf in San Diego in great shape 65K miles, red if you want to go again on this. Only 20 miles of range. We put in a better battery and sell the car and share in profits.

    Please make a video to illustrate how you would do this job. Raising a car on four points is inherently dangerous. If you don’t know what you’re doing, don’t even think about doing this or even doing an oil change.

    You are scaring me putting the car on what is essentially skinny stilts. One good rock and the whole think will come down at an angle. I guess you survived, but add blocking under the tires before getting under it again, please.

    • @tehbonehead
      @tehbonehead 5 місяців тому +4

      Those are jack stands, and unless they're the deadly harbor freight ones, they're fine. They're the accepted method when you don't have a lift. If you position them correctly and are on hard level ground they're very stable. I've supported a 9000# truck with them. If you're worried about it, you shake the bejeezus out of it before you get under.

    • @turbo_brian
      @turbo_brian 5 місяців тому +5

      I mean you should shake any vehicle before you get under it, jack stand or lift.
      But yeah jack stands literally are the correct way to do this in this case, blocking the tires would be less safe because tires can roll.
