Generally, when "nothing goes wrong" like that and you get that sinking feeling, you realize on the test drive that you were supposed to replace the wheel bearing on the other side!!
Wow, that was a different take on an SMA bearing replacement... Usually it requires 14 different kinds of penetrating oil, a torch, Big Nasty, a few breaker bars, a sledgehammer, several drifts, two assistants, an angle grinder, a Sawzall, and several carefully edited choice words to get the job done. Keep up the great videos!
And this came apart smooth as buttah - for an 11 YO vehicle in the rust belt. But as someone else said up thread, likely NOT from around there initially.
Im up in central ny and once in a while we get lucky but not to often. I just did a rear wheel bearing on a 2015 suby impreza today and i had torches big nasty and my little snappy ph3050b trying to get one air hammer wedged in behind then giving it the beans with big nasty also heated it cherry red about 10 times. It was one of the worst ones ive had in a while. Not fun at all. Especially when u see guys down south just give them a light tap with a small dead blow. Lol
@@dylankinch2735 Having seen Eric's channel for a few years now, I know that even a 3-5 YO car can require Big Nasty, just o remove the bolts at bare minimum. :-) Thus, my comment that this car was originally not from here and not here long enough to develop the crusties.
@@johnhpalmer6098 thats the truth man. Like i said once in a while we get lucky but most of the time around here in utica ny every job is a fight. You may be correct on this being a southern vehicle. Everything went very smooth
Right you are, when you want to know this is where you go. The price is always right when you do it right the first time. Sherlock(Mechanic of Auto) show. Starring Eric and family.
It was a very interesting procedure for me being my own service mechanic on many things gs myself learning more information about things such as this good info and thanks from one gearhead to another skilled professional
I feel robbed - When I read wheel bearing and PT Gasuser - I though Big Nasty, torch and a beating - none of that. Great job Eric - I bet you beat the book rate on that one.
Not much to say on this job, went quite smoothly !!! If only they were all like this, work would be a pleasure !!!!!!! Well done, Eric !!!!!!! Now you can enjoy Mrs. O.'s lunch of 3 pork chops, mashed potato's and cream beef gravy, mixed vegetables with home made french fries and spicy ketchup !!!!
Funny, I think I know my way around your little town, ha ha ha. Each time, you do these pressed-in bearings a little differently. It's nice to see how a skilled tradesman has various options.
Of all the times I’ve heard the phrase “in theory or theoretically “,this is the first time I’ve seen it all come off and go back together flawlessly! Unicorn in the rust belt.
1. NAPA really, really does need to sponsor this channel 2. If this PT Cruiser is going to spend anymore time in upstate NY, I'd like to see a 1 or 2 year chassis follow-up video to see how crusty it gets. She's looking terrific right now. 3. Always a pleasure to see a SMA video notification!
EricO doing wheelbearings wow, i thought those days were gone. In my head i was thinking along the lines of you walking up and down the bays "fix this fix that im going hunting"'. The struggle most be real lol.
Long time ago I worked for a Monro muffller and brake shop as a rookie. Did pads and rotors on all four wheels. Did not pump the brakes. Backed out, and frantically pumped them, lucky there were no cars parked behind me, and went up over the curb. Customer watched the whole thing. PUMP YOUR BRAKES! Learned a nice lesson that day, I always pump them now, and have flashbacks when I back out of my garage when done a brake job.
No brake clean sound effect, no rust, no big nasty, no torch cutting bolts, no fake cuss words, an easy looking job. I'm mildly disappointed. Mildly I tell ya! Lol great work, Mr O
Glad you got a taste of our easy suspension work down this way. I swear there's people who make 80k a year doing nothing but suspension work around here. Love the upload schedule, always happy to watch an SMA video whenever they come out. Keep up the great work Eric.
What you can dislike i dont understand...this is a man with big knowlege who works in extreme rust area and its extremly difficult to work on thouse cars...in my area is a lot of old vehicles and they are rusty till that stage that if you want to do a clutch job and need to remove sub frame you cant back that frame....chasis will worp... I want to see these people who dislike these videos...to make their own.. Keep up with good work you are awersome!cheers.. P.S. this post is abouth all videos ...
Good segment, Eric. Thanks. I plan on stopping by your shop this August on my way to Canada. Just want to shake your hand and buy some merch. Cheers from Moyock, NC.
There's another guy who does youtube car repair videos who has said he can't understand why anyone would want to watch someone else just removing bolts so he leaves that part out of his videos. Well dang, the way you do it that's often the most interesting part of the whole video!
What a comedian you are. Everytime I use Brake clean spray I expect the music. I like the way you take the time to explain yourself in your own special way. Keep up the great work and stay safe up there.👍👍👍
Great video as always I was hoping for Big Nasty in there maybe to put the tire on 😎. More videos like theses please!! I don’t watch cable anymore just the sma channel! It’s your delivery and entertainment that we come here for!! Thanks Dr. O!
Nice to see something went easy for you! Put a red light in Josh’s stall so he knows there’s a high quality video production being filmed at that moment.
Waited for the other shoe to drop - yep, the RIGHT shoe did drop. Tisk tisk tisk. Time for you and Mrs O to come to South Texas and come take care of our rusty rides here. We do need a Diesel mechanic since most of the smaller shops won't touch them.
I once put the wavy washer under the nut.... Discovered it many years later when I was taking it apart for something else... Sometimes I worry about myself. I didnt know bearings like these existed before watching this channel. Ive only ever dealt with hub bearings or axle bearings in solid axles.
Thanks to you I'm becoming a better Mechanic everyday and I'm just being in the business for 1 1/2 year. I have a long way to go but I'm getting ready for this amazing trip.
That's one of the reasons he started this show. All the vehicles he was working on were not done right and he knew he could show anyone how to do it right. Sherlock (Mechanic of Auto) show. Starring Eric and family.
It’s my goal to one day visit New York and bring my rust free car to Eric and have him do some maintenance on it 😂 I don’t even have surface rust being an Arizona vehicle
Bought an 02 PT Touring, new. What a piece! It ate brakes, tires and clutches. Headlight multi switch died. About 48 k started using oil. Turns out it was a known issue. Chrysler solution was telling you oil consumption of 1 qt per 500 miles was acceptable! My numerous Nissans used 0 in 3k! My mechanic buddy told me the cure was pulling the pistons, throwing them in the trash because the oil rings would be coked solid. That solution was good for another 40k or so. Changed to 15/40 oil which reduced consumption to 1 1/2 quarts in 3k. Drove till 100k and got rid of it.
I am a retired mechanic, in 1984 I made a tool very close to the one that you are using. However, I made the tool so as I would not need a slide hammer. I still have the tool.
@20:30: I‘ve had that „heck of a ride“ once after the shop forgot to prime the brakes on my motorcycle. Scary moment when you grab the front brake and they‘ve replaced it with the easy-squeeze version. 😂😳 At least I was able to go between the lanes and stop after pumping it twice without resistance. No accident or damage. Since then I have always done a quick brake check after any service on any vehicle.
Live in the UK and I f?! *Ing hate pt cruisers, got a shock of a dodgy plug wire on one and got a dodgy foot from another! Don't envy you dude, every one I've worked on stuff NEVER works out that easy. Keep up the excellent work, nice to see another pro at work 😁
I love this video. Well done, Eric. I almost got lost when you turned right instead of left. Woah! Then you turned left and I knew where we were. Whew. And nothing went wrong. Must be an import from the South where salt is only used in the kitchen. Thanks for taking us along Eric. Love your videos.
I keep trying to get my brake clean to do that sound effect but I must be doing something wrong. I'll keep trying because everyone says I should be learning from these videos. Thanks Eric!
Yeah.... a Double combo video, just what I needed on a sunday instead of bloody football!!!!!....this video also reminded me how good an idea it is to use Rust Prevention sprays....
Was nice to see the brake clean make an appearance. But you forgot the sheep sound with the film! Come on Eric your slipping. My life is simple, I look forward to little things like that. 😂
Keep rolling out those videos your advice is the best advice due to I have my own shop in Chicago but your videos Is what keep me going with all these cars that we have in Chicago
Big salt mine in the southern tier. NY DOT spreads like it they get it for free. NY Roads and Bridges are getting destroyed. There is an alternative made with beets, it doesn't aid corrosion. It's cheaper to use than replacing bridges and roads.
I replaced the whole assy from my low mileage spare front end. A month later that bearing cooked too. Can't find a new assy so I'm doing the new bearing per your video. 150k plus miles on the car. Everything came off easy on the first try so this time was easy also. Great video.
Man you made that look so easy. Great video. I had to replace one on a friend's pt cruiser in my parking lot and had a heck of a time with the lower control arm.
I was waiting for something to go sideways, figuring maybe some other shop loosened all the hardware and bolts but couldn't get the bearing out so the owner passed it on to you. Must be a nice to fix cars south of the rust belt... Good and instructional, as always. Thanks, Eric!
always enjoy this channel, wish scotty kilmer would take a drive north from tennesee and visit you and do a collaboration you guys are knowledgeable and funny its what we all need in these crazy times
Today you lucked out that everything went your way and that must have been nice. Also so glad the brake clean was back I miss it when you don't have to use it and I love the outro music. Stay safe.
Greetings Eric, I've been in automotive repair since I was a youngster and I'm always learning more thanks for taking us along with you and sharing your knowledge. 👍
Two months ago I did front brake pads and rotors on my moms 07 Honda Accord with the big 3.0, I put it in reverse to back out of the driveway (forgot to pump the brakes first), talk about panic, I had a garage 50ft behind me. I yanked the e brake and slammed it in park which made quite the racket with the parking paw grinding. I quickly looked around to make sure no one saw me. I knew better, just forgot. He's right folks, do not forget to pump them up. It's not for the faint of heart.
My man!!!! I am not a mechanic but i love watching you doing your thing! Respect to you and your family. If i lived in your area, i would ABSOLUTLY BE HAPPY TO GIVE YOU MY BUSINESS> and i love the song you used for the test drive. BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY......and thanks for sharing.
That can't be a PT cruiser, never seen one so clean! Did a rear hub/bearing assembly on one once, other than the parts store selling me the wrong part at first (different abs tone ring depending on disc or drum brakes in the rear) it was a pretty quick job.
I worked on this platform since 2003 I can do these jobs blindfolded ! The Turbo SRT4 neons are an amazing car And even though I'm an old fart , i built one for myself and enjoy drag racing it 11.50 @ 125 MPH in the quarter WITH a front wheel drive manual trans 4 cylinder is crazy fun!
You know you're an SMA fan when you know the way back to the shop!
I was thinking the same thing!
I look forward to seeing the Dollar General and the ball field.
And just about all of downtown !
Handy to know when you live in the England. 🤷♂️
And the “big road”
Eric, when you retire from SMA, you can open a shop down South. Every day will be like a holiday.

Been there, done that (on my own car). 😛
@@michaelblacktree Would be a lot worse waste of time if you replaced a perfectly good bearing in a gear box, say 1st gear, when it should be 4th?
The thing us, if that was the wrong bearing, the way it came apart it needed to be replace anyway . Cause it would have went bad very soon
🤣🤣🤣👌👌👌
I always replace both if one goes bad the other isn’t usually to far behind.

Bought an 02 PT Touring, new. What a piece! It ate brakes, tires and clutches. Headlight multi switch died. About 48 k started using oil. Turns out it was a known issue.
