I think that is called a Stilson wrench. My dad had several, most of them he found on the highway because people kept forgetting to take them off the bumper after use. But the one Andrew had there is ginormous.

@@MaximusMerideus Single din and double din refer to the size of the radio. Single din radios are 2 inches high, and double dins are 4 inches high. Single din is a typical radio, the size that will typically be in older vehicles. Double din is basically just a double tall radio, which is a common size for touch screen radios.

Andrew was telling Cody when I walk up front take your paw and push this button. Lol
hey Andrew, im a bit late to this party, but i watch at least one of your videos a day haha :P anyways, for getting the hub assembly out of those dodges, i usually jam a socket between the ear of the ujoint and the axle tube, then fire the truck up and steer into the socket. it ends up pressing the hub assembly out :) usually just takes one good push on either side and they fall out.
for the exhaust hangers, i grab wd40 and spray a bit inside the rubber hole, and the hanger will slip right in/out. i know it was cold AF, but it should still work haha! love seeing these maintenance videos. ive tried to weld up small leaks on things before, and it is incredibly difficult haha! i usually end up chasing the leak around for quite a while.
cheers Andrew!
That is a good tip to remove the wheel bearing. Thanks.
Spit my coffee out lol "that's a pretty professional radio install". Camarata your a savage.
I have learned to not be drinking or eating ANYTHING when watching this master mic-a-nic at work.....
Ya.. And he said it with a straight face ! 😂😂😂
When he said "I got one more thing to do to this truck. I got a new radio for it" I had a Vietnam flashback.
For a split second I thought I was having the most intense déjà vu in the history of recorded time.
I was hoping he was going to get rid of those hideous tail lights
"The previous owner jacked up the wiring"
Bold of you to assume Dodge wiring wasn't jacked up from the factory

8:17 "I think I can straighten it out with a wrench". Proceeds to get the Biggest F'ing Wrench i've ever seen.
“Alright. That’s a pretty professional radio install there” LMAO
you cannot buy one of those because it is hand crafted
This is the Andrew we know and love!
Not once in any video does this guy ask to subscribe, these videos are the best on UA-cam
I was going through video withdrawal. It was rough. But then: instant relief! Andrew has posted!
I love that he said "If you have a rusty car, they should just give you a new one; no matter how old it is."
They did there was a class action law suit .. google it
