- In this video, I screwed up the axle threads trying to get my steering knuckle off. Instead of replacing the axle, watch this video and do this. The Die Set Kit is listed below.

Who knew such an obscure video would be an absolute life saver!
You know about it now lol
You are an absolute legend. Saved me $200 on replacing the driveshaft. Thank you so much 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Glad to help

great video, recently had to do the same on my bmw 335i axle threads. Just figured I would add for anyone else trying this that it helps quite a bit to use some light oil like machine oil or 3in1 as you go as well as spinning the die a full rotation and backing it off a half rotation at a time to increase your odds of making a clean cut as well as the opportunity to remove any shaving so they don't continue to be dragged along the threads as your continue to work the die up the shaft
Yea it helps. I really didn’t want to pull that axle. $20.00 die set fixed it for sure
This just happened to me today so it must definitely help thanks man
Yea it’s a quick fix for sure. If you got an extra set of hands have someone hold that axle if you had it out like I did.
Thanks for This video, helped us alot
Appreciate it bro! I just ordered a kit like this and hopefully it works. My wheel is still completely attached though. I just took the center wheel cap off for access, as I don’t have the tools to take the wheel/rotor etc off
You can rent tools at auto zone they are usually free. Meaning you put a deposit down finish the job and bring the tools back and you get your money back
@@MendandMake I didn’t know that. Thank you. worst case scenario I can do that, an extended hex drive should do the trick though..
big enough opening to fit.
@@MendandMake got the re-threading nut all the way down, and so smooth I’m able to do it with my fingers. Thing is, I may have ruined the threads on my new axle nut, as it’s not going on, even though they’re the same size. Could I leave the Re-threading nut on and drive my car until my new axle nut comes in??
Sir you are badass kickass. You badass kickass hard working person you.
Your exaggerating.
@@MendandMake because you're being a badass kickass hard working person in the video. Lol.
You should have installed the axle to the rotor as if it was ready drive, that way you could have had the axle not fight you during the threading.
True. I was trying to make sure I could fix it. If it wasn’t gonna work I would of had to take off the axle
Where you get the die set
I didn’t know it was gonna work or not. Wasn’t trying to reattach anything to it if that’s what your saying
This may just save my bacon this weekend. Thank you for the video
It will lol
So… did it work?
@@MendandMake worked like a charm
My man! My man! Did you go one size smaller? Was the Nut Thread Size M25 x 1.5 and you brought it down to M24 x 1.5 ?
Didn’t need to
Been driving it about a year. No problems
@@MendandMake Thanks! You're making the world a better place my friend!
Just trying to help lol
Is the axle bolt size the same on a Honda Accord ex
I’m not sure. I never owned one. A lot of the parts are the same though
NICE!
I hope this will work on a 1977 Corvette my spendel thread is striped like that was and I hope they make a kit like that for my car
I’m sure they do. Just get the replacement nut and see what size you need. Then look at the die sizes
My thread is all gone can it be repair still or rethread?
Yes for sure. Buy the kit consider subscribing for more fix it vids
how can you be sure the threads "match"? wouldn't a thread-file be safer?
It seems to be holding up fine
Are they all right hand threads? All mfg? Bmw?
Yep righty tighty
He decided to put oul in afrer its half way in lol
