Love the reference to bad obsession motor sport in the last episode, they referenced you guys today with the lemon squash storage next to their seats 😂😂and the Ave ref with the torque settings, love it
I've had 6 manual cars, 5 auto cars, 3 manual bikes, 3 manual 4x4s driving very remote Oz - they are all good. Auto is better in peak hour traffic, pulling a heavy trailer across a slippery paddock on a hillside, taming my 800hp FG XR6T.
I can't fault him too much. The shipping to Australia is so expensive that it's probable that they don't have as much experience with our parts suppliers as they do their own. So, when you only remember the bad things (like most humans) and you don't have that huge of a pool of experience to draw from, there's bound to be more bad than good that will come to mind. In contrast, I can't think of a single thing I own that I know for sure was made in Australia. So... If I bought one thing, and it was crap, I'd could end up with an exaggeratedly negative opinion.
@@TheBrokenLife Couldn't agree more mate especially when you consider that postage on some items may cost more than the item that you want to purchase, it can be prohibitive to get stuff from the US.
@@EarrGasmm he's never really negative about any company specifally... most professionals aren't. But I've heard digs at America/Americans multiple times.. in good fun mostly though it seems.
I got a look inside that bit of a Ford Ranger auto a while back, and by crikey wasn't it's hydraulic motherboard complicated. No wonder they're so prone to failure and so expensive to fix. I mean replace.
Nice, really like the tech sections, I watch you tube for whats out there to learn, I watch Skid Factory because of Al's shiny and wonderful disposition and wit.........Love me so Turbo Yoda!
My F350 got a shift kit when it got a high torque rebuild, shifts fast and hard. Great for when under load, makes those that don't understand the mod think something is wrong. Modified diesel so don't really want the transmission eating itself in the name of being smooth.
So is older stuff like those transmission generally considered "stronger" because the metal formulation was stronger than they use today, or because the materials used were considered at the time to be weak so they waaaay overbuilt the components? @The Skid Factory
Hey Al... do you ever have to worry about the transmission case getting twisted or warped out of shape enough to distort and affect the valve body operation?
@@jaydunbar7538 I just reckon they'd tell us if supercheap sponsored them. And like Al has said on a few comments the tools are pretty cheap, and those tool chest's go 50% off from time to time. Not like I know facts or anything :) (P.s.The mcm boys used ryobi for years before they sponsored them, which is part of my thought pattern)
@@25LQW probably something like that as far as I know Al doesnt have a sponsorship with anyone yet, not like MCM and Ryobi, I think his Milwaukee tools were his from before YT.
@@25LQW ah fair, then seems all the people asking their opinion on toolpro pointless because you arent generally gonna shit on your sponsor. Problem I have is I cant give anybody's opinion credibility if they're sponsored by that company.
@@MrJaiimez The battery tools are pretty good. They are working with them to give feedback and improve design. They all are so similar, the ratchet skin is identical to the Milwaukee but with 1 additional screw. But Milwaukee one is 3x the price.
Al are you certified AvE torque lol and show the fun part of automatic transmission fun ness the part where the pros make their special tools because the factory tools suck hind tit

I know it is kind of randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream newly released movies online?
Love the torque specs!
Two clicks of the elbow!
Old school torque wrench!
@@motoxray how many ugga duggas is that?
@@AlexNZL Metric or Imperial ugga duggas?
I'm 100% certain I'll never swap a valve body but I watch every Skid Factory vid regardless :)

Love these quick tech vids. Enjoying a cold Mexican lemon squash in my skid factory coozie as I watch

@@nordic5490 Cute story but what has any of that got to do with this guy enjoying a lemon squash?
Needs more dragons in your story
Jeff Symons eh, replied to the wrong comment... uh
Just finished a Bad Obsession video and this pops up = ) AvE also "clicked"...
Must be Christmas!
But no "keep your **** in a vice" sign off... 😂
A great day for sure!
Lemon squash holder reference.
Skid factory episode and a binky episode on the same day. Today was a good day
I overdosed...:D
@@truthseeker8483 from lemon squashes or bracket building? ;D
@@blockbertus Both.... :P
Love these quick tech segments because it's always little bits of info to learn on how things can be slightly different in other cars.
10/10 torque wrench impresson :P
Laughed at the AvE "click" torque spec reference 👌
Finally some thing positive about American companies from your opinion. 🦅🇺🇸

What are you on about? They've been singing the praises of Hughes for months. What American companies has he been negative about?

These tech tip videos are my favorite part of the skid factory
nice shout out to Jeff

Great job Al - thanks for sharing! Auto trans = Black Magic. Could you imagine it coming to you as a box of parts - no thanks. Cheers.

I love how yous share all of you knowledge
Love this show boys! 🤟🏻 cam from tassie!
Awesome video lads!!

Love the tech talk. Thanks, fellas
Al spending his whole life just trying to get rid of cars lol
Woody slippin on the exposure with the close ups lol great vid guys!
New Camera who dis.....

Lemon Squash reference in latest Blinky build vijayoo
Love your work, keep them coming.....🤠
The valve body is a fluid computer that controls the transmission. Thats how i explain it
Thanks al!
Best program ever
im waiting for hotrodders to start using DCTs in drag racing.
Nice info, Looks like a c4 box
Really useful 👍👍
Is that a wnvld customs poster of a gt86 i see on the wall? 🤔
Love this channel
Did you guys see Bad Obsession Motorsport video? There’s a sneaky lemon squash reference!
Me Before I Even Watch Video:
HAVE MY LIKE!!!
What transmission is that?
You almost look like you know what you're doing there! Looking good in that hat!
Hey Al... do you ever have to worry about the transmission case getting twisted or warped out of shape enough to distort and affect the valve body operation?
If that were to happen, you'd probably have lots and lots of parts laying on the ground as well.
Damn the BS that goes on in the comment section💩 just ridiculous 🙈great video much love
If the valve body is a forward manual why is the vacuum modular still in the gearbox?
About 13 minutes into the ep when turbo Yoda said usually it activated my hey google!
So the short is: Go to Hughes when you don't know what the heck is going on. Thank you but I will keep flicking the stick.
Great info and vlog. My brain hurts 🤔.
Thanks for sharing guys.
Automatic transmissions Power comes in, magic happens, power comes out
U got sumptin works on skid marks in my shorts!!!???
Click click! Torqued good
Your a fucken legend love to have a solo with you 👌🏼🍻
Nice. I'm getting stressed by keeping up with the video output.
Very damn cool
You need an Automagic in it ))
How many click of the elbow in one uggah duggah? 7?
Somewhat unrelated - how do you like the toolpro tools? I'm looking at expanding my collection of tools, just for normal car maintenence.
How do you guys rate the toolpro power tools?
How are you liking the toolPRO gear?
Why bother asking, it's not like they could tell the truth if they don't like it.
@@jaydunbar7538 I don't think they sponsor them...
@@johnjosephson9277 so you think all the other tools broke all at once? Seems to me that it being a paid product placement is a far higher likelihood
@@jaydunbar7538 I just reckon they'd tell us if supercheap sponsored them. And like Al has said on a few comments the tools are pretty cheap, and those tool chest's go 50% off from time to time.
Not like I know facts or anything :)
(P.s.The mcm boys used ryobi for years before they sponsored them, which is part of my thought pattern)
👍🏼🤘🏼😎
No idea what most of that meant, but watched it anyway cause Skid Factory...
I think I spent more time listening to you guys than listening my gf 😅
and thats how it should be.
TH400?
Ah, automatic gearboxes, na... Night all
ToolPro tools are excellent value for money.
Yessss
We want iron lion King
Seeing less Milwaukee tools in al’s grubby paws, any reason why?
Because they died and he hasn't bought any more.
@@25LQW probably something like that as far as I know Al doesnt have a sponsorship with anyone yet, not like MCM and Ryobi, I think his Milwaukee tools were his from before YT.
@@MrJaiimez they have toolpro sponsorship. But that didn't stop the Milwaukee stuff breaking and batteries not holding any type of useful charge.
@@25LQW ah fair, then seems all the people asking their opinion on toolpro pointless because you arent generally gonna shit on your sponsor.

Bonus points for saying "shift kit" so many times without once saying "shit kift" 😎
Click Click. Torque until your hand goes click.
