Whoever this guy is? He needs a raise. Even thought I’ve been working on many cars for many years. It’s so damn nice to have tutorials that are so clearly spoken, great angles and have real world scenarios as we saw. Really love that I found this channel.

If your like me, you missed the star fitting on the very top of the shaft that made removal very easy, put wrench on the nut and then star fitting on the very top of the threaded shaft and loosen, I did cut the bolt off after trying to hold it down with vice grips etc, then called a friend and he told me about the fitting at the very top, hope that's helpful to somebody! Would have saved me a good hour of frustration and fighting as well as the danger of putting my angle grinder In there to cut off.
My 2010 Tacoma had OEM shocks with plastic outer shells so I cut them off with a razor knife and grabbed the stem with a vice grip. I had to grind a flat on one stem to keep it from spinning in the vice grip while I loosened the top nut.
Mine at the top stripped and I tried holding at the outer shell and nothing too going to have to drive it home like that and cut it off with a sawzall or grind the top flat

I love that you guys did a vehicle that rusted and left in the complications that always come up
Nice and concise. You deserve praise.

Had to do the same thing
The best videos by FAR
I REALLY appreciated the wrench size and torque information!
Those Pit Viper safety glasses are sick 😂
How to dou call the tools to cut that screws? Good idea
do you need to lift the truck to do this job? wondering if I could do it with the truck just sitting on the ground?
Thanks, just what I needed to work on my son’s 08 Tacoma.
Thanks for the great video, the great instruction, and for making it succinct!! Ya dun good!
Why you did not use nut splitter tool to cut down your time?
how old is this truck?
What kind of blade was on that grinder?
Out standing! Very informative!

Where exactly did u cut on that nut?
Mine at the top stripped and I tried holding at the outer shell and nothing too going to have to drive it home like that and cut it off with a sawzall or grind the top flat
I love how the botl was actaully rusty and seized. because that's how it is on my truck right now
DAMN!!! I’ve never seen anyone swing a hammer that fast. You must be a NINJA!!! 🥷. Lol. Lol
Very informative and great teaching style!
You make it look really easy..
This guy looks done with being a mechanic 😂😂😂
Great work, thank you!
+Chris Dixon Thank you for visiting us on TH-cam.
Big help! Thank you!
Good job soja nice video
Thanks
A sawzall would have cut through that in a minute, that's what I used for mine.
Your right a sawzall is the only way to go. I wasted time trying different things and then got out the sawzall and was done in 15 seconds.
invest in an induction heater, i didnt have to cut anything...
Great videos but man you guys work on some tore up vehicles with alot of rust. You must be by the ocean
that's a serious rust bucket
