    I work with fridge slides all the time, and the ball bearings are a necessary addition for longevity in our off road vehicles. The pieces that hold the ball bearings get deflected from the bouncing, then fall apart. Getting the bearings on there helps spread that load.

Check the LCD display as that is how you can set the temperature when on 12V. If the blue indicator light is not "on" then there is no 12V power.

    Gday Matt Enjoy all your videos on the Colorado. Where you mounted the breather hose bracket on the firewall is the space I have fitted a Provent catch can.( I tried a HPD brand, looks nice & shiny, but absolutely useless at catching oil vapour). Space is limited for a catch can, and the supplied hoses/ bracket dictate it’s mounting position. The breather bracket could go elsewhere as it doesn’t take up a lot of area.

  • @craigcoleman967
    @craigcoleman967 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well-presented and very informative video Matt. Taking photos before you dismantle is a great idea. I'd suggest taking photos of both sides. I just took photos of one side thinking they're identical but they're not and it can get a little confusing trying to mirror image the photos in your head. I've just done the full kit - new drums, shoes, wheel cylinders and shoe retaining pins. All went smoothly. Biggest drama was getting the old drum off. One shoe had ground itself 5mm into the drum and even with the adjuster fully backed off, nothing I did would allow the drum to release. I ended up having to unscrew the wheel cylinder and drill out the back of the shoe retaining pins. Eventually I was able to remove the drum!

    G’day Matt, thanks for showing the boot replacement and going into the little details that eliminate any areas that could bring the job to a halt due to confusion because of a missing step. It’s not uncommon for these to be damaged off road, but to just perish and split, it’s a good idea to regularly inspect the underside of the vehicle for damage. Thanks mate, I like your videos. 👍🇦🇺
