  • Have you ever bought some car parts and decided to install them without doing any research beforehand? Well I did, and the result is this multi part series. This all started with what should have been a simple half day install of a crossover steering kit...and unfolded into 8 days of hilarious frustration and self realization.

    I don't know whether to laugh or cry at this. Defo best build content I've seen in a long time. Gets boring just seeing guys and girls get tools go to vehicle do thing and it's done. But this is real and way better....... What could make it super funny would be to have Suppy and his guys come in every now and then and either rib the crap out of you, laugh and just be how we'd all imagine they would watching you stuggle. It would be mean as hell but proper entertaining...... Never change Zac, you the man

    Well done, I was expecting the front axle to make a bunch of noise. I watched the whole thing, some parts twice. This would be the struggle those with a love for cars feel when they don't wrench, it's all over YT. What makes this batter is some real money is being spent on parts.
