    I love the fact that he does this all on jack stands and a creeper. Amazing talent and shows the younger gen that you don’t need a lift to get it done.

    • @AidanTemplin
      @AidanTemplin  11 місяців тому +13

      Ahh man thank you for saying this! I’ve wanted a lift forever, just like the rest of us, but working on the ground is what I’ve done my whole life so I’ll continue to do it until I’m in a position to upgrade to a lift!

    • @DannysGarage
      @DannysGarage 11 місяців тому +2

      @@AidanTemplin the other thing to consider is how much real estate a lift takes up... I had two lifts up in a relatively small shop and they completely took over the space. Sure you gain some vertical storage by being able to stack cars, but the lift columns do take up a surprising amount of space, even with a two-post clear-floor lift.

    This video truly represents how the content you produce is out of this world. The combination of (i) the difficulty of the task you did (swap an entire engine, deep clean, full maintenance and much much more) and (ii) the stunning video you shot (clean, different, stylish, joyful) is absurd. Mind blowing. I congratulate you on having such a good taste, Aidan. Man, in some sense we believe you deserve a lot more subscribers but in another we feel lucky to be among the 66k fortunate viewers.

    An incredible balance of Cinematography and motoring, both are my favourite things.I just had to subscribe.
    Im a bmw head, i have a e90 320i a 4 cylinder its been parked for some time now, the water circulation system failed and consequently the engine got damaged, I badly wish to be able to do an engine swap with the same quality i saw in this video unfortunately my current financial situation doesn’t allow.
    Im very hopeful for the future though, your content motivates me to keep faith in my e90. I appreciate that. I hope this channel grows more and you receive more blessings.

    Taking the bumper off and removing the entire front assembly with the headlights still attached is much more efficient if you end up having to do this again. The bumper is attached with some 8mm screws to plastics underneath and in fender area and then two torx bolts. Once you remove the bumper remove the 6 nuts on the chassis arms and the two on either side. unplug the headlights, remove the indicators and remove the trims. the front will come right out! Super easy and makes reinstall much easier.
