everyone that's asking where he's at... well I found a answear to that on his Facebook page.
This is what he wrote:
Hey everyone. I’m sure you’ve been wondering where I’ve been and why no new videos lately. Basically, I had a small back injury in October and was recovering from that for about a month. I finally got healed and then my neighbor’s toilet supply line busted in the middle of the night and flooded his place and mine (came under the walls). They had to cut out the lower foot of drywall off my walls in the bathroom, den, and two closets. This has prompted me to do some much needed renovations to my place. I’ve had to move all of my stuff out of my downstairs and into my garage. Thus, I’ve lost my shooting space! The insurance isn’t paying me a ton of money so I’ve decided to do the drywall repair and painting myself. I’ll hire a company to do the hardwood floor install. Anyway, I haven’t really had any time to think about the channel lately. I apologize for this. I guess I’m taking a small break from the channel until this is over and I can move all my stuff back in. I will do a video explaining all of this in more detail. Plus maybe I’ll just do some progress videos as I get this done.
Thank you for posting this, as I was wondering myself and hoping everything's ok. 50sKid, hope you come back to YT, and if not thank you so much for your invaluable contributions for us hard-headed BMW owners!
Good to hear he is ok.
Hope all works out, we miss your videos!
As others have said, thanks for posting this. Glad 50skid is all well.
Me too, Glad to hear he's o.k. Man it scared me.
What's up man. I hope you're ok.i hope you come back and make some videos . i always enjoy watching ...
I used th-cam.com/users/postUgkx4ynqaujg7rZKFapA8s29kTpRszJGa3-K this for the first time today to replace the front wheel bearing on my rwd 98 dodge dakota. This had absolutely no issue removing or reinstalling the lug nuts and it took off the axle nut without any struggle. Sounds like it's got some muscle to it. Time will tell
I think this was the last video 50skid made and it's been over a year. In my opinion, during his break, Jason realized there is more to life than working on BMW's. Working on a car as a hobby is different than working on a car that you need to get to work and get around. I hope Jason buys himself a brand new car and a house with a nice size garage, so he doesn't have to worry about neighbors, space and pressure to work fast. Jason you saved us all so much money and made so many of us do things we never could have imagined to do ourselves on a BMW. Your videos will live for as long as the m52 and m54 engines are on the road. Thank you and God Bless.
TonyS I wish he would make some more videos
Hope youre alright, we all really miss your videos! Thank you for making them you saved me and countless other people so much money and made it easy for us to work on the cars we love.
I’m going with 1/2”. It has wider socket size selection and then I can downsize to a 3/8”. I know I’ll loose some torque but that’s the idea since smaller bolts have lower torque specs.
Just made the same purchase with the same thought
From what I've heard from mechanics is the 3/8 with adapter hits harder than 1/2. I know it goes against the thought but more than one mechanic has said this and tested it. Idk though both will get most jobs done on truck/cars.
@@queefersutherland8495 yep that’s a fact. 3/8 is better.
Great review. I was having my doubts if buying the 1/2 inch or the 3/8s, but this video helped me decide for the 1/2 inch. Thanks a lot man.
I think it would've helped your test on the lug nuts if you used impact sockets on the 3/8.
YES! I bought this the day it came out and had the exact same problems you mentioned the fat end making it harder to get into places. I got a 20V MAXIMUM 1/2 Brushless Impact, its 1" longer, but much more narrower and can get into smaller/easier places.
Brother you should shoot the remodel! One thing that gained my viewership and trust in you, is your transparent honesty. You give us the real experience of what worked and what did not work, and you always follow up and update us when you have made a mistake. I hope the back is getting better, and will keep checking back to hopefully see the results of your remodel, and honestly what ever content you upload!
Your fellow 1 car garage BMW masochist,
Paul
This was exactly the comparison video I was looking for. Thank you!
Thank you for uploading this video and demonstrating some of the pros and cons between the two stubby impacts and with the old m18 compact impact. Were you using a chrome socket or an impact socket on the 3/8"? If you were using chrome, i think that would also affect the performance since impact sockets are typically heavier and are made with a softer metal so to absorb and transfer the impacting percussions more effectively.
Hope all's well with you Jason, you been quiet on youtube for while. Don't stay away too long buddy and Happy New Year.
I hope he's soon back, his E46 tutorials are best on whole TH-cam.
You are a great mechanic sir. Thank you for taking out time and doing all you do sir. God bless you
I ordered the 3/8's stubby impact. Get it tomorrow.
How are things with you, haven't uploaded any videos in a while? Hope all is well, thank you for all the great how-to videos and reviews you have done. Always looking forward to a new one from ya. Again hope all is well.
Awesome review! I'm a look into the 1/2 now instead of the 3/8.
50skid, come back!!! We miss you, man!
picked up a 1/2" with a 6.0ah battery and it's the bees knees
These stubby's are beasts, you can almost pull an entire engine with it apart and undo bolts on wheels and suspension. The small size and weight is a joy to use.
Question: I have a 2000 bmw 323i and my cruise control turns off about 60, where should i start? And Thank You for the Great Videos :)
We miss you, 50sKid!
are there any difference between the smaller battery and the bigger ones besides the weight. I just got mine with the big battery and contemplating of getting the small one as well.
Honestly I'm willing to donate just because he's literally saved me thousands on repair bills.... We should do a gofundme for his dry wall etc back injury stuff
What happened to him?
come back 50skid!! We miss your videos!
Would you recommend putting torque sticks on the half inch stubby?
I think this might be perfect for a home shop. Just enough power for lug nuts and small enough for tight places.
50s kid I like your videos and I hope you come out with new ones, you had save me lots of money thank you!! Please make new videos!!! Be safe
Just ordered the m13 stubby 1/2 inch I got a lot of m12 batteries with the 6ah battery it will last a long time for my needs
There are many good tool reviews for Milwaukee cordless impacts on TH-cam but his are the best. I see the last update below was 6 months ago, I hope The 50s kid is doing well.
Great comparison. I was debating between 1/2" and 3/8" model and your wheel test settled it for me. Thank you!
I am in the same boat, so which did you choose and why?
I am in the same boat, so which did you choose and why?
@@cardo1111 I went 1/2" drive. Easier to step down to 3/8". To have a 3/8" and adapt up to 1/2" in a pinch would work, but didn't seem like a good long-term solution, especially for removing wheels often.
itzjere I appreciate the response, that makes sense. I have a 1/2" impact from another brand, it works well for lug nuts but it is about 8" long. I still think I would go with the 1/2" stubby for the reasons you point out and living in the Northeast U.S. corrosion is always an issue the extra power from the larger anvil can't hurt.
@@cardo1111 oh yes. I used to live in the Northeast. Changing wheels twice a year for winter tires and back makes a lot of sense.
I have a bunch Milwaukee tools I like to see test about new Tools to see if they are worth buying. Sometimes A tool store in Fairbanks will have Tools demo. That’s why I bought Milwaukee 18 volt fuel 1/2 impact.
how do you put a rear strut bar on an 02 BMW 325ci convertible? I can’t seem to find the strut towers at all.
I just bought the m18 impact mid torque for working on my wheels. Is that ideal for under the hood as well or do i need the stubby? Thanks for your input! New sub!!
i know this is unrelated to the video but i have an issue. My e46 330 is have hesitation when accelerating from 2.5k to around 5k it used to be just bad 3k but now its worse. I thought it could be my vanos and maybe its just gotten worse over time, but i noticed it got worse since i put a siemens MAF sensor in from the junkyard (btw this solved like 3 different issue for me including getting rid of my check engine light) i also have a super old air filter too. So i was thinking could it just be that its dirty and thats why it hesitates in the higher rpm. I have also read that because the MAF is a hot film style it cant really be cleaned with breaking it. I was going to buy drvanos' rebuilt unit and see but if its just a dirty maf and there is a way to clean it without breaking it then i would rather do that for now. Hopefully you see this question i need some help. 2004 e46 330 6spd smg.
also i have heard it could be my cats too
Awesome tools I only have Milwaukee as well but off question I seen your other videos and I didn't see one where you had the fuel pump cut out switch location on a 2001 BMW X5 4.4 I any help would be appreciated thanks 50s kids
Good Video
i have all 3 Sizes : 1/4, 3/8 , 1/2
the 3/8 seems weaker than the 1/2 "
also when i slide the 4.0 battery to the 1/2 impact its a Tight Fit ??? do not know if it is normal - will try the 2.0 battery
I do not think they are 250 ibs/ft
more like 150 ibs/ft
Can someone explain what's the difference between brushless and fuel impact driver?
Hey 50sKid, what a bummer about your flood. You could keep the camera rolling while you repair the house. Edit them in the future for DIY home restoration and such. I have an E46 and sub'ed for future reference.
Hello thank you for your videos they really help and get the job done easy hope to see more videos soon and maybe a desktop stream where to buy quality parts for low price
Hi Great Video :-) was just wondering what is the size of your garage? thank you :-)
Great review 50sKid! For the snug on feature on the 3/8 stubby, what torque does it tighten to? Do you think it’s low enough to use on water pump bolts or a valve cover nut?
I believe it's 10 lb-ft
Hey 50sKid can you when you get w chance make a video on electrical problems with the E46. this seems to be common. The issue I am having is my passenger door randomly shows as open on the gauge cluster while the door is closed. I did notice that if I hold the window up switch it does make it go away. Also sometimes the turn signal works from the outside but doesn't show anything on the cluster no click no light. Other times the side air bag light or the seat belt light go on when they're not suppose to.
Thank you
Get your hands on the schematics and start checking your wires one by one
I don’t know what to do. Do I get 1/2 or 3/8. The only large bolts I’m gonna be taking off is lug nuts on a fiesta so there not that highly torqued. So will maybe a 3/8 be better as it’ll mainly be for smaller tasks and the odd lug nuts when I take wheels off.
I don't have any power tools I can only afford one...will the 3/8 stubby replace the cordless ratchet
Not sure if you'll see this but I accidentally poured 1/4 a qaurt of oil in my transmission.... should I flush it???
Can u use a 1/2 inch stubby for brake jobs and suspension jobs?
When you just held it up next to the m18 version, it didn’t look that much shorter
Great video, the difference on the Milwaukee m12 3/8 is that your using Grey Pneumatic thin wall light weight impact sockets and they don’t pack a punch as Grey Pneumatic original heavy 3/8 impact sockets. I have both versions in 3/8 & 1/2 thin wall and heavy impact sockets, and I can tell the difference in the punch they put out. Try the 3/8 version with a heavy 3/8 impact socket and you will see the difference as night & day. Keep the videos coming.
Es verdad Miguel, yo tengo la 3/8 stubby y trate de sacar un Link kit de un sonata era un socket 19mm corto cromado y no lo aflojó, busque una 19 mm 3/8 impacto larga y saco la tuerca, es como tu dices parece que al ser más pesada tiene más masa y la ayuda .
Ramon A. Pagan Kercado yep that’s the trick always use the right tools to get the job done right, I’m glad it worked out for you, keep up the good work.
Ramon A. Pagan Kercado also always use CR-MO impact sockets it will also save the anvil on your impact wrench it’s more forgiving than CR-V impact sockets.
You got me there! I did have that thought afterwards but I didn’t want to go reshoot it lol
@@50sKid dude we need an update. Where you been?
looking forward to your return
Are they gonna make M18 stubbies?
Ugh man please come back, did your e46 just stop having problems or something???
Remember while yes they will run on the compact batteries they won’t have anywhere near the power as if you use the xc 3.0 4.0 6.0
You actually get the most power from the xc 4.0 as the individual cells used in that battery allow the most amp draw out of all the xc packs.
hey man. got an issue, nothing to do with this version of video. I have an E39 with a GM3 issue. can you help out RQ. All the door say they are open on the dashboard. Yet all doors are closed. I dont have INPA or anything. I need to fix this issue without a computer. I have checked all micro switches and they work as they should. Nothing broken and circuits are fine. Checked the wiring for any grounding issues. This is where my problems comes in. Would it be best if i disconnect the battery and run a test wire from the negative terminal and test probe the earth lines from these microswitches. every door does not have bare metal showing and getting a ground test is almost impossible. Furthermore, how the hell can i test the power line where by the GM3 is involved. I have x3 GM3 units and tbh, I cannot confirm any of them to be compatible with my TDS. 2 came with the car and the 3rd i bought myself. The only thing that works WITHOUT remote keyfob and shows to fully functional is the boot. This shows to be functional on the DASHBOARD but the doors DONT. They say defect is present. Once i can figure out why my doors say they are open then I can MOT. I need some old school testing to be taught. Can you do this to a friends E39 and run tests.??? petrol diesel makes no difference the wiring is the same almost. Fuses and relays are my biggest concern right now. Fixed the wiring loom in the arse end and repd my wiring from a doner 523i and fitted right into the 525tds just fine. All rear electrics are now good and no rocket boosters present on the dashboard now! If need be I can upload a video for you to see what I am talking about. Then I can upload all the fixes done or works completed. I am having too many brain farts right now and im screwed for financing. please help if you can. merry christmas.
you are using wrong sockets and extension with the 3/8s impact. You get some tourque loss in non impact rated sockets and extensions.
hope youre doing well brother and all your stuff gets figured out. we miss the content man
I’m confused most people show the 3/8” ripping off lugnuts set to 200 ftlbs. Yours is struggling at 80 w/o extensions. Is it the socket or adaptor your using?
Trying to pick out either the 3/8” or 1/2” for rotations, break jobs, and steering work.
He's using a wrong socket on 3/8..
...he has to use impact socket...that's what happen..Other videos with
3/8 lug nuts comes off very fast...
Where are you? Is everything okay?
hey can you do a video on rear bumper removal pls
Who has the best price online with that exact combo kit?
Where you been, bud???
I was wondering the same thing..
check his Facebook; @@strivezoul

Same tool except for drive socket, yet the 1/2in costs more?
Why didn't you use the 3rd setting. I was wondering why they were struggling so much. On 3rd they come off easy. But is it that you just don't want them to come out fast. Just seriously asking I've taken lugnuts that are torqued over 120ft lbs with the 3/8s. Please don't tell me you think this was their top torque strength. My stubby never struggles this hard. Just honestly asking. Since ive done a few toyota shocks and it got it done, no issues, Great video 👍
Is he OK? I can't see recent posts from his Facebook
Hey man I was wondering if you can make a video for steering wheel angle sensor. Thanks.
I second this, I have the bifecta, and am not sure if I should perform an alignment, steering wheel calibration, or both? Neither are very DIY friendly as they both take specialty tools. Dealers wants $300 for both. I was also wondering if there was a way to "check" the angle sensor to see if its bad... May be my actual problem. Steering wheel is very slightly off center, but not much, and not sure what sort of angle out would cause the bifecta, or if my angle sensor is bad. We miss you, hope all is well, love your videos!
hello I congratulate you for having a great channel where you teach us and share things we do not know about the bmw thanks ... I have a question change the transmission of my car 2000 bmw 328i that I have to do now reset the line and someone does it for me or I can do it myself what happens is the car comes well reverse but when I give it forward it only serves the first velosity does not enter the second is automatic you would help me a lot if you would tell me what to do thank you ....
Been a while hope all is well
Anybody knows what happened with him ? It’s been over a year now .
Nice tools, but if an extension is often needed it takes away some of the versatility of having a compact tool.
5:25 or you can also use a mid length socket.
So basically I’m just going to order a 1/2 and a 3/8 adapter lol
a
Exactly if buying a impact always opt for 1/2”
Budget Boost DIY i use a 1/2” stubby all the time. Rarely ever need a 3/8” drive impact. Usually only use a 1/4” drive or 1/2” drive.
3/8 drive with a 1/2 adapter would be heavier than a 1/2 drive, and stronger than the reducer
Hey I have BMW e46
The eml light and traction and break lights all turned on and now the car can not go more than 2000rpm do you know what I would to do with it
7mood_k24 24 throttle body most likely happened to me. Try resetting the throttle body/gas pedal with the key sequence
I have both 1/2 and 3/8 stubby and 1/2 mid torque, 1/2 high torque
Thanks nice demonstration
U ok.. jus wondering. Haven't seen a vid in 2 months... Hope all is well.......
That m18 2.0 battery lasts longer because it's comprised of 5 18650 batteries as the m12 compact 2.0 battery only has 3 inside.
its been two years man where are you now
There good I use it everyday it wouldn't break my harmonic balancer witch pissed me off and surprised me besides that its good and hits pretty hard
i hope mans okay... its been long time since last post.
So is there much physical size difference in the 3/8 and the 1/2.
James F No just the anvil size everything else is the same.
Awesome review
Whered ya go man
You are not making videos anymore, bro?
You have 2654? I have 2754 it has auto mode but in fwd ir doesn't stop tightening a bolt just tightens it like it's in mode 1 is this the way its supposed to work or is something wrong with it?
4th mode is suppose to tighten up to 10lbs. Basically for small fasteners only.
It definitely is a lot more than more like 40 ft lbs maybe I'll send it back or not it's not a big issue for me
I ordered the 3/8 version last week, for $135 it was a no brainer.
Still helping ppl like me till this day
Do the new stubby impacts come in M18 or only M12?
12 only
Nice 👍 good job. I like your channel.
Why have there been no videos in so long I have missed them
for having max 250 ft lbs I expected both to remove lug nuts far more easily than this! TY I guess this means I should go for a 18 or 20v impact
If you only buy one impact wrench, a high impact is definitely the way to go. One of these small ones is nice for tight areas though, but it is easier to make do with handtools on such things than to break open rusted nuts on heavier equipment by hand..
Oh, and 20V is usually a marketing gimmick, some companies use the higher deviation of 18V tools because it sounds more powerful.
@@WeldingForJesus I got the m12 stubby 3/8. It removed an axle nut for me already so I think it should do everything I need it to.
@@dummkompf If you can make do with just that then it is awesome. After all; money saved is money earned and considering the price on tools these days it quickly adds up.
I bought my first impact wrench because doing lug nuts on my truck was wearing me out, around 700 Nm x 96 by hand. 🤢 I got the 1/2" stubby as a light duty complement later on, and it is a great tool where it is usable.
good info thank you,
Where are you man ???????
I purchased 3/8 stubby with 4ah battery and in disappointed, struggles with almost all lug nuts
Use a thick walled impact socket. That should work and if it Still doesn't work, than put a 1/2 adapter on it and you will still get more torque. Hope this helps
Please come back !
What would you suggest to buy an m12 stubby or an m12 ratchet?
Both, each has their own benefits
if you are going to have just one, buy the 3/8 mid torque....decent size and a lot more power
M12 ratchet for me, the older 3/8 is my favorite
50sKid curious to know why the older ratchet?
bhadz100 the new one is really nice but it’s got a bigger head so it doesn’t get in everywhere the old one did and it’s much heavier. The earlier model is my preferred 3/8. But the newer 1/4 one is still the same smaller size as it was before and to be honest, that is the one I always use because it sounds nicer!
What do you recommend for me to carry on my SUV? I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 1995 Integra. I'd like to have it for changing out flats on the Integra though but I don't want to own both.
the 3/8 or 1/2 " mid torque shld be able to do the job just fine. unless you wanna use the big boys which is way heavier.
Joe does it just come down to the impact socket size I'll need to carry for each car?
Great vid
The End?
