It's good to see the struggle that goes into filming in a shop. At least there's no crazy amounts of rust like at South Main Auto. Brian on East Main St makes it look less intimidating. :)
tylough I thought about not making a video on it. This Jeep doesn’t have a lot of rust but I work on plenty of vehicles that have just as much rust as the ones Eric O works on. He has a great channel BTW I have been subscribed to him since he had about 10k subs. It’s not intimidating by any means with the right tools. Thanks
I'm glad you made the video. Yeah I've been following Eric since sometime in late 2015. He's quite the entertainer!
I hate rust lol makes me want to bring a old crusty michigan century to cali to have a cali tech see the struggles 😂
Good video and explanation, thanks 🧰👨🔧👍
awesome info. now I'd feel confident doing it myself. thanks for taking the time to video this.
Rebel Rouser Thanks and you are welcome! I wasn’t going to video it but just thought what the heck we will see how it goes.
Very nice Brian. I felt just like I was at work.....LOL Lot of good info!
Camaro Time Thanks! I wasn’t planning on making a video about it but thought what the heck.
great video! thank you!
That snap on kits looks nice. But the price for us DIY guys wow. The hook is neat may have to make one.
Ouzo Lou Garage The Kit is nice but like I said in the video it’s not for DIYers. They only cost $12 for the caliper hooks.
I'm not a mechanic not even close but I attempted all of what you did but the lower ball joints and I wish I would of seen your video 1st would of been a great help
Thank you! That’s why I make these types of videos.
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you and you are welcome
Hi Brian, great video. Very helpful. I have a question: what/which grease did you use on the ball joint before installing it?
@@marvinottley5539 Thanks! Funny thing is I literally just dropped a video on the Icon Ball Joint Press. I use Amsoil Synthetic Multi Purpose Grease on everything I grease.
Great video I was hoping you were going to use power built
Thanks for the feedback. I thought it looked like silicone grease and I used 3M Silicone Paste instead. What are your thoughts?
@@marvinottley5539 I wouldn’t use a paste. I would use a good high temp grease.
3:08 I use cardboard and boxes sometimes a 5 gallon bucket with a couple pieces cardboard in the bottom to catch stuff and keep it from bouncing into my shins.
saneauto Sounds like a good idea! Thanks
I'll add this to the list of things I'm not going to try. Good instructional video though.
Zach Barker It looks a lot harder then it really is. Thanks

Hey how did those Detroit axle brand shocks hold up ?
They were good for about 2 years and then started leaking. For the price though I think they did well.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing thanks for the quick reply! I might look into something a step up from 2 years 😄
You need some H20 lol
Ouzo Lou Garage Yeah I did it was a hot day and that quick strut about killed me. I had no help and really needed a second set of hands.
Snap-on master ball joint press is $800 now 😢
Yes but when you do them daily or even weekly it’s money well spent. The most stuck ball joints come out easily with it. It saves you time and frustration.
Forgot to wear your goggles?😢
Yeah I have always been bad about that
