I make videos about projects or hobbies of mine. Just looking to share and give back to some of the other TH-camrs out there.
US General Pro 5 Drawer Tool Cart Mod
US General Pro 5 drawer tool cart lift supports (shocks) were blown and I replaced with new ones off Amazon. Wanted the top of the cart to open up full 90⁰ like the new series 2 tool carts at Harbor Freight with little modification.
Easy mod. Cost was about $15

2013 Fusion Trunk Project
มุมมอง 4.3K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Added gas struts to my Ford Fusion. Couldn't find a kit so I got creative. For less than $20 I am happy! Amazon link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017FVAJP2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Did you end up fixing this? I have the same fridge and had the same power outage from a thunder storm and it won’t cool. I replaced the compressor and still not getting cold.
@@leop1193 yes. It's still running today. I still use it in my kitchen.
Thank you. I just got a used US General Pro box exactly like yours but without any gas struts. I am getting some tonight. Thanks for the link.
Dk i need a hub bearing that comes with the sensor or its build in the knuckle
the blue one bc the other one looks kinda alien
thanks for the info! I've been looking for the correct size struts.
How did you find your leak?
Did you put it in Break Service Mode?
Nope, all was fine without doing that.
@@joudomsouk my caliper barley came off because I could get those small screw that are covered with those plastic screws. Also, in the process of screwing this up, the electoral plug to the roter came undone. Now, the red brake light on the dash is blinking whilst the yellow electric bolt light is on. Says service now and won’t go off my doing the steps it takes to engage and disengage in brake service mode. Not sure what to do. And if you did this without BSM, I’m not sure what I did wrong.
What’s the arms called ? I have a trunk that got pushed in bending the main arms and can’t find the part number
Come up
Fantastic job, man!
Nice, are they strong enough to hang some tools with a magnet up there? Or should be more than 45 lbs rating?

The gas strut should always be fitted with the piston pointing down. You have your gas struts installed upside down.
I gave this a whirl and bought the OTUAYAUTO 15 inch Gas Strut - 200N/45Lbs Universal Lift Support from the link above and ran into some issues with my Gen 1 US General Pro 5 Drawer. Firstly, the stock supports were 60N. These 200N/45 were far too strong and were bending the lower sheet metal anchor point, and I even have a butcher block wooden top attached on top of the lid. I would recommend going for more around 100N max. With the near vertical extended height, you just don't need much pressure to hold it up - even the stocker at 60N would hold it if they were longer. I ended up getting some 5/16" SS fender washers (x2 each side) to go on both sides of the mount stud on the bottom to reinforce. The second issue was, they are a little bit too long on the compressed length. The top would not close completely and was sitting up about an inch when fully compressed, and yes, I did confirm both end fasteners were completely screwed down tightly. Seems the required length would be more like a little under approx 9" compression length. I however did find that the stud length on both ends of the support struts were approx 7.80mm and the threaded hole in the end fasteners were 11.30mm. Being plastic, I took them to my bench sander and slowly sanded the threaded surface until the depth of the holes were exactly 7.80mm. By doing both ends, that reduced the compressed length by approx 7mm ( a little over 1/4") which gave me just enough to allow the lid to close on the 3/16" thick rubber bumpers I added to the lid where the corners would normally hit. Just made it so I didn't have to return them. But again, if I had my choice, I would highly recommend going with supports more in the 100N range each. I hope this helps the next guy, but thanks for the idea Johnny!
Thanks for the tip. I have the series 1Tool cart and this is a very helpful Mod to get the top at more of 90 deg. angle. Very nice!!
Thank you for sharing the HUB buster!
Should of used a jack under that tool!
Did you get any abs lights on
No
I had to remove the spindle knuckle and put it in a 60 ton press to get it out. 7 years in the northeast salt did a number on it .
What size axle nut was that ?
32mm I believe.
Typically 32mm/ 1¼" socket
Is that awd
Yes
Yup, those things seize on bad! It took me almost an hour but using 'brute force and ignorance'.. I won! It was a great idea by Ford to create a nice 'dirt well' in the back of the assembly! Nice video, thanks.
That's awesome, if only I can find someone to do it now. Lol
Did you need to put the parking brake in service mode to change the rear hub bearing?
I did not. No issues.
Recommend doing that... So calipers pistons reset to proper position automatically
How do you put it in service mode?
Where did you get the new hub assembly?

Was it a humming noise
Yes. Kind of like a whirling noise.
it gets worse, just wait a while! It almost sounds like a tailpipe in contact with a panel somewhere!
Is there an ABS cap on this bearing hub for the 2013 model ?
The sensor is not attached to the hub. I didn't need to remove the sensor at all. I hope this helps.
*I have used this freezer for about six months now, and it works great.>>>**nub.best/fh4f** I had to leave my chest freezer when I moved and my new setup required an upright freezer. This freezer has met all my expectations. Thank you.*
I have basically same Fridge, except with water and ice dispenser, what amount of R134A did you use? I seen 3.5 to 5 oz
I used a kitchen scale and I think it was somewhere around 5oz I used out of an 8oz can.
Thanks for the feed back
Doing this same repair today, thx for posting!!!!
I'm in process with this on a free fridge I got from someone else. How did you most effectively find the freon leak? After your project do you wish you had hired someone to do it? Just curious as I'm about to take this on.
Bill Patterson trial and error mostly. I wasted a bottle of freon before I figured to search for a leak. I followed the copper lines until I felt where it was leaking from. I am happy I took this on. I learned a lot from this project. And I saved a good amount of money. It is still running strong to this day!
Thanks so much for the reply. I've ordered the tools. We'll see what happens.
Wtf. You could of just use Leak detection spray.
@@michaelnowak1011 a great example of "you don't know what you don't know". I just didn't know.
@@tandbappliance I didn't. I ended up giving the fridge away.
thank you
what kind of freon did u use? r134a?
Patrick Dugan yes. 134a
Thanks again!
Hi. Where did you get that tap on service tool from? Thanks
