If I’m being honest I love snap on way more than matco but Michael Is honestly the BEST distributor on the channel.
Right? Michael seems pretty awesome.
He’s a great guy
Yeah he is very knowledgeable
Nahhh snap on is definitely better cuz they actually mostly make most of there shit and Hamilton is definitely the best dealer on the channel then goes matco Michael , mac daddy Michael, then joe Hamilton is definitely got more jokes and lot more funnier in my opinion can never get enough of Hamilton 🤣
Met him at the meet-up, he’s was a pleasure to talk to and made me a few nice little deals on some tools. I live 800 miles away, and he made sure to tell me if I ever have any trouble with the stuff I bought he’d take care of. I’m kind of glad he’s 800 miles away, I’d spend WAY too much money on his truck. But, all the dealers on this channel are super nice guys.
Husker football and Matco Michael make a great Saturday morning!
Clay was nibbling on the blue handled black ratchet and Michael just threw another lure in the pond. 😂
Michael is throwing lures in the pond for all of us 🤣. I'm a obnoxious neon yellow guy but I kinda want blue things now. I think it's working on me, just have to get a matco guy at my new shop all I have is snapon
Balljoint press is my favorite tool for u-joints
Nice stuff!! I see boss lady is not riding with him, must have met sales goals!!!😂😂
There are fewer and fewer actual "Mechanics" around anymore. Mostly what we see are parts replacers. Used to we would rebuild a starter or alternator. I can't tell you how many times I replaced brushes in a starter or alternator or replaced the bearing in an alternator. Used to we could easily get the parts to do this type of work. Nowadays the parts houses only want to sell you a new starter or alternator when it actually only needs a $5 part replaced.
Tools like this are why I love Matco Tools.
We still do a lot of starter/alternator overhauls at my job, especially for tractors like you mentionned and other old heavy machinery where it's easier to source the brushes or diodes bridges for alternators than the actual complete part and much more efficient cost wise for the customer aswell.
Thanks for the info on the filter wrench Micheal. Now I understand why it's taking over 4 months to get the one I ordered off the website. I emailed them last week and was told it would ship end of the he month.
Glad he mentioned those pliers cause I ordered a pair and it’s been over a month or more on getting them and still haven’t got them yet
That socket press is awesome, I really needed that when I was pressing out trunnions on LS rocker arms, really fought the old socket in the vice method when I was replacing mine lol
I have a JSC773 in metallic bronze and I love the color. If Michael was my dealer that box would be gone gone gone.
You guys are right about putting control arms in can’t remember when I had to do just bushings or a ball joint
If ball joints and bushing are bad, Honestly it's easier to replace the whole arm in most cases. Some vehicles control arms don't have serviceable ball joints and bushings. Meaning you'd have to replace the whole control arm regardless if the arm itself was okay. But it's a lot cheaper to replace a bushing and ball joint.
got an old snap on press at work and man does it makes life easy
I got my first matco tool today actually a little 1/4 longer comfort grip non flex head ratchet AFR88G and I really love that ratchet lol
Tool boxes in the same colors as Toyota Tacomas now, nice.
That's a cool press didn't know it existed untill now
It’s not Matco made
@@tomprescott394 yes I know the only thing Matco makes is tool boxes and carts and they also own fluke everything else is rebranded
So I used to work at AutoZone before working at the dealer. Lifetime brake pads ARE CORRECT if you buy them today and in 2 years they go bad you bring them in to swap them out. No issues. Now as for the shops advertising lifetime brakes I bet they're only saying for parts. The labor I assume will have to be paid I'm not sure about that
Matco mike losing that weight he better start dem curls to fill out dem shirt sleeves.
Great T shirt Michael
Nice MAYHEW punch and chisel set
We do a lot of 1310 joints on pto shafts in a bench vice with a piece of cut off pipe and slug of steel. Can be a pain in the ass. Gonna check this tool out.
It’s small enough you won’t have to take the entire shaft out. Save that little time
Just got that new Matco relay tester..It’s awesome!
I am really digging, Michael’s shirt! Thanks Y’all for another great video!
Thank you for watching
Some nice stuff there
Glad this video popped back up! I messaged Matco Michael about how to score a digi camo impact awhile back thru my dbr. And i got one! LOVE IT!! Thanks guys!!
Glad it helped!
I cut an x with my smaller grinder on b joints and I’ll hammer out in a few swings.
If I’m tired it’s getting dry iced and pressed
my warranty for friends has been 5 minutes or 5 miles... which ever came first.... not that anyone ever had a premature failure..
I have broken mine 3 times now it’s always that same pin I’ve noticed they have broken when I put the torque on the bottom jaw instead of the top if that makes sense. The first time you do a service on cat motors I swear the oil filters are like glued on haha they are the worst to get off
As a forklift mechanic all of our electric trucks use to have DC motors in them so I've been replacing brushes for a long time. These new kids that have only delt with AC motors have no clue what brushes even are. We had one kid want to order a whole new drive motor bc he didn't know you could replace the brushes lol
Damn you clay! I bought the serpentine belt kit you shared even though I was already looking into it and my dealer had it for 199 instead of the 210 and now you share that socket press and gonna make be buy that 🤔
I bought a starter for my El Camino from pep boys on a Friday after work cuz they were the only place it was open put it in Friday night by Sunday it wasn't working so I went by my buddy shop he does big truck electric I pulled the starter out he rebuilt it still in the damn truck still working he taught me how to do it but I've never bought a rebuilt starter since but sometimes it's hard to get the parts
I just bought a Cornwell u joint installer and wish I'd seen that first omg!
We've noticed that the after market control arms when you go to put a regular standard ball joint in it that's for the car it doesn't fit it's to big or to small so you have no choice but to put another aftermarket control arm on
If you're interested, Tiger Tool makes a socket C clamp like that Matco, but not made in China like the Matco (made in Canada), in case you want to pick one up. However, the Matco one is deeper, so that is an advantage for it in some cases, but the shallower one would likely be stronger against bends. So, I could see how both would be handy to have.
I’d like to have that snap on roll cart
Love that camo impact.
Those Toyotas are built like tanks
The main thing I see bad with the digital camo is you will never be able to find it once you put it in ur box
Great video !
Thanks
I use the bench press oddly enough with sockets to press the u joints in
I hade someone ask me to check their brakes they just changed but the car won't stop they sold them the little packs of anti seze and told them to put it on the pads well with a full pedal they had no brakes i looked at the roters and they were covered in anti seze sprayed them down with brake cleaner and took it down the road brakes worked fine to many people working on things or selling parts without any idea what they are doing
Most places I worked you often get told nah don’t rebuild that starter or injection pump cause it’ll cost more in labour than the new part which sometimes is definitely true since at 23 I have a bit of experience rebuilding components that would normally be replaced and sent for core but definitely not the experience many of the 50+ year olds I’ve apprenticed under
Grab some axle bearing grease a finger full in each cap. Not to much or when u press it together itll either prevent it from pressing on all the way or it'll force the grease out around the dust seals and ruin them. It'll help a lot for keeping the needles in place if u feel uneasy about them. Slip em in and love tap em to get started holding the joint in the cap while tapping it. And if u press one in to far and the joint doesn't freely move around without force or binding them just whack the yoke once in each side and itll shock them apart ever so to free em up! Done hundreds of u joints they come to u with time
I do not like working on fords either Michael! Sorry Clay. But like you said just gotta do it. Pick up tricks on the way. Still I don’t see why I have to remove rivets on a window regulator or on a filler cap on a e350. Just me
Definitely think about all the different cups you have thats the biggest problem with the ujoint/balljoint press you end up using a freakin socket most the time anyways
I saw the shotgun @12:30
Hey clay can you please do another video on the new us general 34 full bank service cart I just bought one in full black
Thank god michael isnt a snapon dealer because i'd be on the streets!
We're lucky here in Lawrence county PA. we actually have three shops that rebuild starters ,alternators, and generators most electrical stuff. After rebuild they are better than new reman stuff.
Man!! That CAMO!!
The biggest complaint most people are having with Matco is when they release a new flyer and they don’t have the stuff that they’re selling in the flyer on hand and that makes no sense? Everything is back ordered:)
Yeah it happens a lot
Sh#t first time I ever did a ujoint was on a 2003 Chevy Silverado and it had that plastic lock inside. It was on my dads truck and I cracked the ear off. Talk about a bad day because it took a couple months before my dad would let me work on his truck again.
I had a neighbor one time who's not real mechanically inclined was going to do the brakes on his foreign car out remember which one it was and he's trying to get the rotors off and he gave me a call he'd be beaten the hell out of this thing with a hammer going down there took the screw off the rotor fell off he goes I sold that screw but I thought it was not all the way in anyway he just didn't know what he was doing but now he does
It's ok. I bought a Matco box off the Snap-On truck the other day. Well, sort of. Guy at my shop bought a big Snap-On box and traded his old one in. I turned around and bought it back from the Snap-On guy before he even had it loaded.
Why didn't you just buy it from your buddy lol
Probably easier to owe the snap on guy versus his co worker.
There are some driveshafts you can't replace the u joints in,staked in from the factory.Replace the whole driveshaft is the fix when the u joint goes bad in them.The Chevrolet and GMC HD2500 and up 4x4 trucks with the Allison,don't ignore a driveline vibration problem and bad u joint.Ignore these and the repair gets more expensive.Breaks the tailshaft housing where the transfer case goes into,One local transmission repair shop in my area has seen this happen replacing the rear tailshaft housing.The factory GM u joints,torch is needed to get rid of the nylon material holding the cups in
I believe some old d21 nissans were like that
Hated those nylon sealed gms. Thank God they don't use those anymore
How do u set an alignment with worn suspension parts?
I have an advance auto brand ball joint press for u joints,
What is the part number on the od green oakley hats
4
👍👍👍👍
What is the sale price on the black ratchets?
Backwards brake pads tell.me the person that does that figured if a mechanic can do it any body can. Old way of thinking! Thanks for the video
I wonder how well that socket press would work on a set of stuck anchor pins and bushings or if it would be a quick way to install s-cam bushings
Otc has a press for anchor pins and bushings
Matco Michael isn’t wrong, my snap on guy calls matco trade-ins “trophies”, lol
Reminds me I gotta get my u-joints done on my 05 tundra…. She’s a money pit but I love her! 6” on 35” toyos just a pretty truck.
Yeah they are good looking rides
I have better luck rebuilding a starter than trying one of JD'S remanufactured pieces of crap. Took a genuine jd remanufactured starter out of the box a little while ago only to find it still had the hammer marks where someone else already tried it. Last year a remanufactured alternator wouldn't work at all. Gave up trying remaned Jd parts.
Wish I had a Matco distributor
just gearwrench and sunex tools rebranded???? matco makes nothing but toolboxes
@@mikethetoolman8776 eh.. not quite
@@ianloyd6384 ok so list all the tool matco makes themselves- in house??
I put those bastards in the freezer prior to u- joint installation. Keeps those needle bearings in place just long enough.
What kind of shotgun is there on top of the toolbox?
Yesterday, I spent 5 minutes finding a 1/2" wrench I didn't put back in the rack the day before. Why would anyone want to camouflage their tools?
Looks just like a Tiger Tools - Automotive C-Frame Socket Press. They look close to the same design, but is only rated 2.5T vs the 11T with the Matco?
Forged vs machined
Ahh! Makes sense and thanks for pointing it out.
Intro music is about the worst I’ve ever heard but awesome videos
Back in the day we rebuilt everything now parts are just replaced
Parts are like all back ordered or unavailable now and quality is not great.
Yeah I remember rebuilding carbarturs engines transmission rear end front differential soldering radiators and having starters and alternators rewound but not anymore
Do u like the 14.4 ratchet or the m12 from Is Milwaukee
I prefer the 14.4 much more. The battery doesn’t fall out and I like the trigger better than the paddle. Plus the head is smaller. I did a video comparing them. The Milwaukee claims to be stronger but we put that to rest pretty quick
First
Almost every time. Lol. I think I beat you once
@@ianloyd6384 LOL
That has the depth a ball joint press lacks! And why when I use a ball joint press for u joints it's a struggle!
Ball joint press?
You can use a ball joint press for sure and that’s the “normal” but the socket press is much smaller and easy to handle and honestly much easier and faster to use
Clay how did you get the press and Michael didn't have one ?
Lol I kinda wondered that too
Bought it from another dealer when I seen it
You just got to remember I travel and meet dealers all over the place…. When you see something you want, need or haven’t seen you buy it right then. Especially if it is new stuff! Because you know it’s gonna be back ordered !
It’s been out for a pretty good while. I’ve had it for a few months, not sure why he didn’t order one in to try because they are awesome.
The socket press i think is rebranded tiger tool
It’s different (same design) but Tiger tool is a cnc machined think it’s 2.5 ton or something. This one is forged and supposed to take 11 tons
@@KoonTrucking up here in Northern Wisconsin most u joints get cut out with a torch except the aluminum shafts then I use a tiger tool.
Clay if you see this comment where is Hamelin? And snap on Friday ? I like Matco and Michael but just wanted to know what happened to Snapon
Here ya go th-cam.com/video/nXSX-_dSWvU/w-d-xo.html
The problem with matco is my dealer will give me the flyer and i will say I want one of these. They are on back order. Why put it in the dang flyer if it's not available?
I know it sucks
Lifetime warranty means the expected lifespan of the thing ...not for the rest of your life.... LOL.... the exact amount of time as usually in the small print..(1yr-2yr)
Michael on that keto
He’s been on a diet and lost a bunch. Not sure what kind.
How much is that Matco shotgun you silently panned across?
It’s a gaw item on tool tickets
@@KoonTrucking or he's doing tool repos in the hood
Are all of Matco tools made in China? Or just some random stuff like that C frame press? I noticed it says on the box made in China. I personally have no issues with Chinas tools. Quality can be had anywhere in the world. It just depends on the manufacturing process. Some people just don’t understand that.
No they have some USA made stuff (sockets, ratchets etc) they have Taiwan made also like the ADV sockets etc.
@@KoonTrucking that's good to know, the last I heard all of Matcos sockets were now made overseas. What about their wrenches, are they still made in the U.S.A. or .?
The captions said Mac Hoe 😂
Made in China 😳😳 looks like a nice kit though
Could you imagine the price of this especially being forged if it were made in the USA
Is it true all Matco tools are a rebrand? Asking for a friend.
Matco makes toolboxes. But they do not own any tool manufacturing plants from my understanding but they do have tools that are exclusively sold through them that are made to their specs. All companies rebrand tools no matter who it is even snap on
@@KoonTrucking didn’t no they only manufactured tool boxes. Good to know. No hate, just curious.
An they discontinued it
CalVan makes it. You can find those much cheaper
Why is there a shotgun on the truck at @12:17 ? Missed a payment you get shown the gun, miss again he puts a shell in the gun, and finale miss payment you just hope he misses?
Haha it’s a giveaway he’s doing
nothing is lifetime
Made in China
made in china come on MATCO
28:10 the only problem i have with your videos
?? What ya mean ?
@@KoonTrucking that’s when it ends.
Oh I got ya, I was wondering what was wrong with it ! 👍🏻
@@KoonTrucking he is right I thought you would know what i mean
Not a new tool I have had that socket press for 2 years it’s made by tiger tool
Tiger tool is machine vs this one being forged. This one is 11 tons
Very disappointing to discover that Matco rebrands every single tool! Quite depressing makes me want to throw away every “Matco” tool I own
You realize every single tool truck rebrands tools right? Nobody makes every tool they sell. But if it bothers you that bad then toss em!
Not made by Matco, vendor item. Matco doesn’t make any of their tools. Zero! This is a private label company only.
That’s breaking news! Everyone knows that. But Matco gets exclusives on tools that you can’t buy anywhere else for a long time. Like the new ball joint press they have. We have covered that several times on this channel.
I searched the Matco app for that socket c-press. Cant find it.. even searched part #
Who knows they may have decided not to carry them as much but never fear you can buy it from who actually makes it. Search CalVan 201 😉
