Can you imagine having ChrisFix as your neighbour? ...doorbell rings "HEY GUY, ChrisFix here, and I need about a cup of sugar to make some medium strength cupcakes"
I really enjoy how Chris' wife/mother is presumably totally fine with a driveway full of cars being worked on and a garage full of tools, but bearings in the freezer - thats where they draw the line.
Chris you are the MAN!! I have saved $2700 in car repairs by doing it myself watching your videos. You are one of the best car repair instructors on TH-cam. My car is running so much smoother and with excellent response. Thank you for taking the time to show the world how to do car repairs the RIGHT WAY!!!
@@ADGaming-7619 I'm a mechanic and I have no say in how much I get paid for fixing a car. I get paid a set amount of money for each job I do. The other day I spent 3 hours chasing wires and I only got paid an hour of labor. It's the shop who makes all the money lol. Plus most mechanics/technicians love Chrisfix, ETCG, Humble Mechanic, EE, and that one guy who rails lines of coke and sleeps in his trunk. Even the older guys watch these. You can learn a lot even from DYIers
My dude. I work at a dealership in parts/service, and I think what you do here is amazing. So many customers could save thousands if they simply followed your step by step guides. This is a service to the public and enjoyable to watch for those of us who already know how.
I wonder what your dealership would pay Chris if he decided to apply there...and whether or not Chris would need to list his qualifications...surely he could refer the hiring manager to his TH-cam channel in lieu of listing his many, MANY skills on an app!
anyone else find these soothing af?? literally watching this with a drink. confidence that its helpful and true, but also entertaining. Quality content sir.
While i don't see myself rebuilding the entire front end, this was a very informative video & gave me a better understanding of the front end of the vehicle
You're the man Chris. Your videos helped me fix my car, then my families cars and now I work in an actual shop making $18 an hour and I haven't even got any ASE certs. Your videos videos made it look easy, so I tried. Sure enough I could do it and I enjoy doing it! Thanks man.
I've been doing this for many decades. Even though you're using hand tools and no full fitted workshop it's very clear you know what you're doing. A lot of very good guidance for those that don't. Really good videos Chris.
Chris, Your videos have been so helpful. My son is 16 and just bought his first car and we've been working on it and watching your videos for guidance. Thank you for what you do! Your presentation, quality, and content are unmatched on TH-cam. The videos are easy to watch and extremely informative. Once again, Thank you.
Amazing the knowledge that people can gain ...I wondered about how Chris was as a kid...who did he look up to...how was he introduced to mechanics/cars ...and who ultimately fostered that interest turning it into the thing that helps US...the REST of the world!? Kudos to his mentor and kudo's to Chris for having such a generous spirit to share with us!
I work at a dealership and I started watching your videos when I was a porter at the beginning of 2022.. I’m doing main shop work now on the side and I’ve gotten so much better by watching your videos. Thanks Man !
@@chrisfix I live in Italy, it's very hard to find a shop that rents their tools here, and it's usually a pretty expensive service. When I was younger I used to buy the most expensive tools together with a close friend, by paying 50-50 and then sharing them while needed.
I'm rockin a 94 Integra. I've been slowly replacing bits and pieces of my suspension over the last few years. But after watching this I'm thinking I might just do it all at once so it's done right. But Chris always makes it look much easier than it is.
Thanks for making cars not scary for me. Doing your own work and saving huge amounts of money feels so good. You’re doing a great thing with this channel, Chris.
Man i love watching these kind of videos. 3 months ago i knew nothing about cars, and now i'm working on my car every weekend, replacing this and that, it's awesome!
Hi Chris, like all of your DIY videos, this one is just as amazing! I just recently aquired a 2005 Saturn Ion 2, Pacific Blue, 4 door coupe, with 5 speed manual transmission with over 214,000 miles, in desperate need of having its loose front end steering suspesion replaced. I have a realatively good idea of the time and the work needed to get the job done, and you shared several valuable tips on making it that much more easier. Thank you for being such an inspiration to all and your care and attention to detail. Great work on your step-by-step detailed explaination and excellent video editing. Your videos and your sense of humor make your videos so much fun to watch! Thank you!
@@R.E.HILL_ Maybe you should make a TH-cam channel...I haven't checked, but if you make videos on how to do the stuff he does. Then maybe I'd follow you too and see who does it better, but from what I know. He is very detailed on everything, unlike people that I've watched that just say, it's okay if it breaks, or just keep turning, and if the bolt breaks, buy a new one, etc. Hes professional. It's also a DIY channel. So let it be. Thank you.
I just bought an 08 volvo c30 t5 and the entire suspension needs replaced and both estimates for work was over 3 grand. Nearly half of what I bought the car for. This is pure gold. Got the parts on order since I already had 3/4ths the tools needed for this. Thanks!
I just found your channel about 4 days ago. *I was planning to buy my first car, because I've used the one my father had, but since June I live in another country* I own my drivers license for almost 2 and a half years, and I wasn't interested about learning how to superclean your car, or how to fix a rusty part.. Honestly I thought it is too hard for me, and i'd rather be paying a couple hundreds of dollars for a mecanic instead of doing it myself.. "BTW i don' t have the required tools" - or that's what I've thought- A few days earlier I've found your channel, and I started to be interested, and to feel more confident too. I've inspected a car today(the Chrisfix way) and I've negotiated the price for almost the half of it. I am really excited to see your next videos too, and I just want to say thank you from all of my heart, your channel had changed my thoughts about cars, and fixing them. Thank you Chris :)
Hey Chris, you do good work and make it look easy. I'm right in the middle of a front end rebuild on a 2010 Toyota Sienna van. I started out with hand tools like you did but quickly figured out I needed more. I almost stripped one nut trying to break it loose with a long breaker bar. That's when I figured I needed at least a 1,000 ft lb impact wrench for this job. The prices put me off until I found a 1,180 ft lb Beswell 1/2" impact wrench on Amazon for $39.95. Man! The difference is like day and night! Can't believe I waited this long. I highly recommend that you don't frustrate yourself trying to break loose old rusted bolts. Just go get the impact wrench. It'll pay for itself many times over and you'll be drinking a beer instead of laying under a car cussing.
@@chrisfix Thanks! (I know you showed your impact wrench at the start of your video but maybe some of your viewers will be able to pick one up for themselves and make life a little easier.) There was one nut that stymied me! The passenger side stabilizer bar bottom inside 17mm nut. I guess I just don't have the tools to get it but could not figure any way to get it off. Any ideas? Thanks again!
Next video Hey guys chrisfix here😀 Today i am gonna show you how to build a airplane with simple tools. All you need is a hammer jack and some wrenches😉🤣🤣🤣
É ótimo assistir os vídeos do Chris! Pena que um entusiasta como eu, não tenho acesso a todas as ferramentas, que no nosso país são quase inexistente (como no caso do kit de prensar com o grampo C sextavado) simplesmente não tem lugar pra alugar (Em goiânia não, em SP agora tem Autozone). Abraços!
My favorite part is “I’d get in trouble for that” under his breath so relatable you are my favorite TH-camr weather it was ur mom or ur wife I feel u bro, ur videos are the BEST, you’re a real one
@@spartacussmith7070 technically the Del Sol is based off the CRX, which in turn is based off the Civic. It was sold in foreign markets as "Civic Del Sol" and "CRX Del Sol", only in North America it's called "Del Sol"
I'll be able to do that once the dynos and tuners can open up again! The virus unfortunately changed around a lot of plans around with regards to turbo/supercharging and a lot of other videos, but I have received some good news about when I'll be able to get that done now! Stay tuned!
Oh my, i didnt expect you will notice me! Im sooo happy! You’re such a big inspiration Chris, you are the reason why automotive is my passion, doing DIY on my super budget project car i learn too much from you, just wanna say thank you so much hope you can read this! Oh my im so happy ❤️
ChrisFix ohh i see, but now this is a good news from me knowing that this project is still on going, hoping to see more Entertaining and Very educating videos from you! :)
Actually he's the guy who made me get into cars 2 and a half years ago, before that I wasn't interested in cars, and now I'm starting my business flipping old cars and restoring them.
@@tygill7401 then starting working on cars more? When you get the money buy a cheap project car in bad condition and repair it/mod it/resell it and make a profit.
Chris is like the Mechanic God or Guru his videos taught me how to do body work patching holes, and rust sanding, I just learned how to change inner and outer tie rods now I'm learning how to redo my entire front suspension this is great stuff
This is cool thank you! I'm learning from ZERO here. I had to watch it like 6 times to understand the whole thing, I was stuck on the lower arm installation and then I realized those bushings are not shown in the beginning neither the Strut fork. Thanks man!
@pizza cat lover for drifting a supercharger would fit nicely because it delivers linear power instead of having to deal with more unpredictable turbo output while trying to modulate the throttle
blazar 0 Bruh who doesn’t want a charger on a drift car? that’s literally perfect. the only time you should put a turbo on a drift car is if it’s sequential, has ALS, or you’re a very experienced drifter
BEST...most thorough and exciting hands-on-car video I have ever watched. New fan, new follower. Now about to tear my car apart and hope I can put it back together as easily lol

I've got new suspension for my C4 Corvette coming in soon. I'm gonna be watching this over and over in preparation. Your channel is my favorite resource for working on cars and I always reference your videos before starting work. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how to do all these things! EDIT: I also remember watching this video many times before working on my Crown Vic's suspension as well!
@@John_Rod Yeah man these guys gotta get out and try. Start slow like changing the oil, then the spark plugs, then the brakes, then timing belt, etc etc
You're by far the best presenter for automotive how to. Very thorough, clear and concise instructions. Thought I was subbed a long time ago but realized I wasn't so corrected that! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
The way you take the time to show different angles and share every detail in video's, it just amazes me everytime. Your on a whole different level then other TH-cam's. Ur style is just ver unique.
Bro you have literally saved my life I'm 17 growing up life's hitting shit happens and I'm lost and your helping me out of alot from showing me how to fix my car
I would love to have been standing on the side of Chris while he was making this video. Especially near the end it sounded like he was nearly shouting with enthusiasm, lol. I can only imagine what his neighbors must think he is doing all the time, 😜. I must say though Chris, your enthusiasm is infectious. I have only watched maybe a handful of your videos so far, but after every one of them, I have gotten so amped up with confidence I can do what was in the video, that it makes me want to nearly just jump up and yell “YEEAAH!, YEEAAH!” Then run through the wall making a cartoon hole outline, to go and fix, or make something. Haha. Thank you so much for your effort and passion for making great videos.
The fact that he uses all of his life time and effort to make this videos to learn to us how to fix our cars without moving an inch is awesome keep up the good work bro
@@SamuelSalzman damn, at mine our senior year we can choose to do half days where half the day we go off to a nearby college and they have a full shop where we get to do everything. But u have it at the actual highschool?
I do love how you explain the pressing of the ball joint and the bearing. Id say inform the viewer that on most cars you're able to get the control arm with the balljoint already pressed in. The same goes for the bearing. Although the bearing will be more common to have to press it in.
"Just give me all the threadlocker you have. Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of threadlocker." What I said was, "Give me all the threadlocker you have". Do you understand?"
Another amazing video ChrisFix! I have no intention of ever taking apart and reinstalling the suspension on any car and yet I watched both videos in their entirety just because you do such a great job at explaining everything, and I’m just curious about the process and all the parts that are involved in the front suspension of a car. Fascinating! Thanks
You make it look very easy to install the whole suspension system by self than what it actually is. Good job bro. Keep doing this, you got one subs from me
Hey Chris! Thanks to your detailed gutting and fresh install of the front suspension, I was able to do mine seamlessly. Your easy to follow guides are phenomenal!
I am pumped now that the suspension is all good and the surprise at the end of the video! We are gonna have some fun with this car!
PS I will have a car meetup in Toronto Canada this Tuesday. Check my stories on TH-cam, Instagram or Facebook page for more info!!!

@@spartacussmith7070 technically the Del Sol is based off the CRX, which in turn is based off the Civic. It was sold in foreign markets as "Civic Del Sol" and "CRX Del Sol", only in North America it's called "Del Sol"
I rewatched part 1 and 2 about 13 times. I can't wait for Rear suspension video
Almost 2 years, and here i am still waiting for the turbo video for this one...
I'll be able to do that once the dynos and tuners can open up again! The virus unfortunately changed around a lot of plans around with regards to turbo/supercharging and a lot of other videos, but I have received some good news about when I'll be able to get that done now! Stay tuned!
Oh my, i didnt expect you will notice me! Im sooo happy! You’re such a big inspiration Chris, you are the reason why automotive is my passion, doing DIY on my super budget project car i learn too much from you, just wanna say thank you so much hope you can read this! Oh my im so happy ❤️
ChrisFix ohh i see, but now this is a good news from me knowing that this project is still on going, hoping to see more Entertaining and Very educating videos from you! :)
@@chrisfix I'm also been waiting for this video for a while now. Stay safe brother and I'll stay tuned!
@@minhpham27 Not sure if the pun was intended or not... but damn it was good 😂
Love how this guys makes everything simple and organized makes me want to build an repair cars for a living
I'm glad you find the videos simple and organized!
Better choice than college...you will always have a job.
Actually he's the guy who made me get into cars 2 and a half years ago, before that I wasn't interested in cars, and now I'm starting my business flipping old cars and restoring them.
@@defalt45 bro what are you serious I started watching him 3 years ago and all I’ve done is give all my friends cheap tune ups
@@tygill7401 then starting working on cars more? When you get the money buy a cheap project car in bad condition and repair it/mod it/resell it and make a profit.
your videos are the best, thank you for making them
Thank you!
Very fine job sir!
@@chrisfix one day I'm gonna buy my own set of tools and my own car to repair it! At least the cheaper parts, cuz some replacements are expensive!
Chris is like the Mechanic God or Guru his videos taught me how to do body work patching holes, and rust sanding, I just learned how to change inner and outer tie rods now I'm learning how to redo my entire front suspension this is great stuff
Chris: And I bought a ebay turbo kit for the Honda
Me: *surprised Pikachu face*
Omega LTU i heard they were wu tang war whistlers but it could be nagasaki noisey bois
@@sean0611 The nagasaki noisey bois about to rip!!!!!
Everyone: man you need VERY expensive tools to fix cars
Chrisfix: hold my soapy wooder/beer
Minimaster 56 lmfaoooo😂😂😂
Torque wrenches are hundreds of dollars my dude.
@@Brunghis you can get a cheap reliable one from amazon
@@elias8294 or rent one
Noir A I link the professional torque wrench I use in the description and it’s under $100.
I don't need replace my front suspension, but it was soo satisfying.
I dont even have a car
Same hahah
@@eathanrichards6363 bruh same here
This is cool thank you! I'm learning from ZERO here. I had to watch it like 6 times to understand the whole thing, I was stuck on the lower arm installation and then I realized those bushings are not shown in the beginning neither the Strut fork. Thanks man!
now it just needs a fresh coat of paint and a detail, maybe a tune up, and you’ll have a perfect Honda DelSol.
Exactly
That turbo kit and a decent exhaust would be great.
Please do a video on how to paint a car sometime in the future
ChrisFix are you going to wrap the del sol or paint it
@@MrPhatties kolam
.
Chris we need a video on putting a supercharger on the drift stang that’d be so sick
Alec W yes!
He is going to, he also bought a new engine for the supercharger
pizza cat lover nah, not for this application
@pizza cat lover for drifting a supercharger would fit nicely because it delivers linear power instead of having to deal with more unpredictable turbo output while trying to modulate the throttle
blazar 0 Bruh who doesn’t want a charger on a drift car? that’s literally perfect. the only time you should put a turbo on a drift car is if it’s sequential, has ALS, or you’re a very experienced drifter
Hell yes! So stoked for the turbo build.
BEST...most thorough and exciting hands-on-car video I have ever watched. New fan, new follower. Now about to tear my car apart and hope I can put it back together as easily lol
Welcome aboard! Thanks a lot!
This is why I love Chris fix. He does every job using tools readily available to just about anyone. Keep up the good work Chris 👍
I have to sleep... "hey guys" nope "chrisfix here" dang. Sleep will have to wait. So worth it!
Neighbors kid: "Mommy.. why is that man yelling to himself again outside while using enthusiastic gestures?"
Neighbor Parent: "We've talked about this before honey, it's not polite to stare while youtubers are creating content".
What a meme
I've got new suspension for my C4 Corvette coming in soon. I'm gonna be watching this over and over in preparation. Your channel is my favorite resource for working on cars and I always reference your videos before starting work. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how to do all these things!
EDIT: I also remember watching this video many times before working on my Crown Vic's suspension as well!
Man I miss my vic. How did it go?
Anyone else just watch the videos for satisfaction rather then actully doing what he’s doing 😂
Joe Bidion Oh absolutely. I find it very cathartic. There’s no in hell I’m actually doing this shit in real life though.
Yep. I wish there were more time and more money for me to do that though.
Why? Everything he did is pretty simple.
@@John_Rod Yeah man these guys gotta get out and try. Start slow like changing the oil, then the spark plugs, then the brakes, then timing belt, etc etc
J Rodriguez I don’t have the time or an appropriate place to fully redo the front suspension on a car. I wish I did, but alas I do not.
You're by far the best presenter for automotive how to. Very thorough, clear and concise instructions. Thought I was subbed a long time ago but realized I wasn't so corrected that! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
The way you take the time to show different angles and share every detail in video's, it just amazes me everytime. Your on a whole different level then other TH-cam's. Ur style is just ver unique.
Very
Thanks a lot!
Bro you have literally saved my life I'm 17 growing up life's hitting shit happens and I'm lost and your helping me out of alot from showing me how to fix my car
I would love to have been standing on the side of Chris while he was making this video. Especially near the end it sounded like he was nearly shouting with enthusiasm, lol. I can only imagine what his neighbors must think he is doing all the time, 😜. I must say though Chris, your enthusiasm is infectious. I have only watched maybe a handful of your videos so far, but after every one of them, I have gotten so amped up with confidence I can do what was in the video, that it makes me want to nearly just jump up and yell “YEEAAH!, YEEAAH!” Then run through the wall making a cartoon hole outline, to go and fix, or make something. Haha. Thank you so much for your effort and passion for making great videos.
100% agree.
My brain:
How To Install A COMPLETELY New Car Or Truck In Your Front Suspension
I think its the other way round
@Nathan craft that’s exactly the point
This guys is seriously amazing, I’ve watched so many videos from him. Honestly so easy to follow and understand. I’m glad he has such a great channel.
Thanks a lot!
The fact that he uses all of his life time and effort to make this videos to learn to us how to fix our cars without moving an inch is awesome keep up the good work bro
Drinking game: everytime he says "medium strength thread locker" take a shot.
I’d have alcohol poisoning halfway in 😂
Drunk asf 🥴

We watch your videos in my high school auto shop class.
Your high school offers auto shop classes??!!
@@jnic2003 yeah, we have a full shop with 5 lifts. We can bring in our own cars as well to work on.
@@SamuelSalzman damn, at mine our senior year we can choose to do half days where half the day we go off to a nearby college and they have a full shop where we get to do everything. But u have it at the actual highschool?
I put my balljoint in the freezer and found bits of it in my meatloaf dinner.... Thanks mom
I do love how you explain the pressing of the ball joint and the bearing. Id say inform the viewer that on most cars you're able to get the control arm with the balljoint already pressed in. The same goes for the bearing. Although the bearing will be more common to have to press it in.
It's nice when they have parts like that but good to show regardless!
Tighten lug nuts in a _Chris_ - cross pattern
I see Your reference XD
Bruh
Man I love your enthusiasm! You make repairs like this seem approachable and less scary. Thanks for doing what you do!
Parts guy: how much threadlocker do you need?
ChrisFix: Yes
Joe Montes I’ll take your entire stock
😁😁😁 that made me laugh out loud, nice one.
"Just give me all the threadlocker you have. Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of threadlocker." What I said was, "Give me all the threadlocker you have". Do you understand?"
@@stupidrainbo I understood that reference.
@@stupidrainbo I wanted to write that comment but then I saw yours.
Another amazing video ChrisFix! I have no intention of ever taking apart and reinstalling the suspension on any car and yet I watched both videos in their entirety just because you do such a great job at explaining everything, and I’m just curious about the process and all the parts that are involved in the front suspension of a car. Fascinating! Thanks
Yeah it just help understand what people are talking about - I never understood what tie rods were etc.
"Lightly tap it with a hammer" *WHAP WHAP WHAP WHAP WHAP* Perfect! XDXDXDXDXDXD
18:34
tappy tap tap
Feeling cute. Might change my whole suspension. Idk
😂😂😂😂😂
Feeling cute might do a suspension delete later
Wife - Honey our neighbors talking to his car again.. should we call the police..
Husband - oh dont be alarmed that's thats CHRIS!
Cops: Hey we had a noise complaint...
Chris: Hey guys Chris Fix here and today...
I'm a 50+ years old lady. I'm watching your video and learning really cool stuff. Thank you❤❤❤
Me: Mom can I put a car part in the freezer.
Mom: No you will get into trouble.

He still bought his dreamcar lol

Yes, I am too. Come on chrisfix. Put on the Turbo already
Meeeeee.....
You make it look very easy to install the whole suspension system by self than what it actually is. Good job bro. Keep doing this, you got one subs from me
(light cough) (inhales)
HEY GUYS CHRISFIX HERE!
"Hooolyyy Smokes", I love it when you can hear the excitement in his voice.
Omg! These 7 days of wait for this vid felt like 70 days! Finallly!
I have to say this is the most instructive video on car maintenance I have ever seen. Very easy to understand. Thank you.
Thank you for helping me learn and grow as an Automotive Repairist!!!
You helped me a lot throughout my journey!
That’s what I like to hear! Glad the video was helpful!!!
Quick question Chris,
When are you gonna put the turbo kit in the Del Sol?
Yeah
Bump
Install it in the hummer
@@nbarrager turbo diesel, now that's an idea
do it ASAP please
Compressing a 6 hour job in less than 30 minutes, epic job.
Took well over a hundred hours but the result was worth it!
@@chrisfix A hundred hours? Yikes. I told my wife I only needed her car for 8.
It took 100 hrs cuz he was recording and editing
It was so good the 26 minutes I watched felt like it went by in 5 minutes.
@@the.rico.network depends. Is your car from the north or south? Lol
Hey Chris! Thanks to your detailed gutting and fresh install of the front suspension, I was able to do mine seamlessly. Your easy to follow guides are phenomenal!
