It can be done obviously, not as comfortable as using a jack lift, but still same results. I only done it couple of times with jacks and stands as him. 👍🏻
Agree, just the ambience and tools and car pieces sounds. However is to long, i think if he could do something similar in 10, 15 or 20 minutes his channel would do so much better.
Hello to all followers of this channel. This simple and thin man is actually as big as a mountain! Rarely in my life have I been able to meet people like him! This man is a just and conscientious man in his work. He came and started work exactly on the day and at the scheduled time. Even though the job was longer than we expected it to be, he didn't ask for any extra money. Thank you very much for the great job you did on Kevin.
Thank you so much. It was real pleasure to meet you and your family. You were very kind to me. I’m very pleased to read your feedback on here. Wasn’t expecting it. All the best for your son in his new endeavour. Kind regards. Kevin-Albert.
Oh no - we figured that one out, anyone bench pressing gearboxes all day as easily as this man is no weed! It takes me about a week to change one clutch in between cups of tea... the number he does in a week is quite something! Nice work
Hello Sir, can you please tell us how much this service cost you? I need a clutch replacement soon aswell, would like to know how this cost, and compare it to a standard mechanic shop. Thank you =)
I must admit, as a mechanic my self. I would flinch if I had to do this more than once a week in a full shop environment. Pay this man well and offer him some dinner, he deserves it.
This takes me back to my kirbside motor days. Wrestling gearboxes on my knees. There's something very satisfying working hard on your own and earning some money. Good luck to you.
Really enjoyed your video you do a nice job. Takes me back to the days when I was doing my clutch on my triumph TR 4. trying to align the transmission shaft back to the engine takes me way back thanks a lot
I love how everyone in the comments who has worked on more than a few cars understands what a tough proposition it is to decide to do clutches in peoples driveways for a living.
I used to have a little business going to peoples houses doing car welding repairs sills chassis patches n stuff back in the 70s .and you could guarantee that after emptying the van and setting up it would dam well chuck it down ,i got fed up after a few years particularly when more electrics were been put all over the veachle ,so i gave it up , hats off to you buddy you've found a niche but health is more important than money backs dont last they easily go then life's a misery take care well done .

@@WMCS I'm curious. A tow dolly isn't very expensive and a lift can be found for around $1000 used. Why are you doing it this way for a living? Don't get me wrong, I do things like this too. However I don't do it for a living but I'm already trying to save up for a lift for my own Repairs
Brother, massive massive respect man. Working outside in cold rainy weather and doing all that stuff alone is just incredible. Wise lesson for other people who are much better off but still complain about their jobs.
Well he is one of the best organised mechanics I have seen in many years, his advantage is that he has energy and an organised brain. Well done young man !
Nonetheless it is great to see how organized and methodical he is. Quick jacks, milwaukee tools, socket trays, torquing the leg nuts, rubber mats, gloves, overalls/jackets and and a hat to keep himself clean and presentable when finished. Well done.
First thing when he pulls up you go outside and offer him a cup of tea or coffee makes me mad when people think they are doing you a favour when you are helping them courtesy cost nothing well done young man 👍

The lesson that we learn is that automotive engineering is still in the dark ages, you have to dismantle a car to change a clutch (which is a consumable). Fantastic work Mr.Williams.

well this is the man i want to fix my car, spot on mate well done hoping you charge the correct amount of money and dont undercharge for such a great service and workman ship.🤩
When I started in the trade, the main workshop didn't have many ramps. All the clutches and gearbox or torque converter removals were done on the floor. Stood me in good stead for when I went as a mobile mechanic. Nice to watch someone who knows what he's doing!
Im an ex professional car mechanic. Done hundreds of clutch jobs. I hated doing it like this guy - bloody hard (and sometimes brutally hard) work. Respect to you mate!
Man..... I can remember doing this stuff 25 years ago. Riding around with a truck load of tools working on cars in peoples yards ans drive ways. I was gettin the bills paid when nobody else had a job. I stayed super busy. Great job young man.
I have done this for few years myself and I used to always crack the wheel nuts before putting axle stands, as being alone would have made one stranded if the nuts won't come off with impact gun and the car is on axle stand and you have no one to press the brake pedal for you. Great work and best of luck.
Much respect. Done quite a few clutches, engines out, etc, my own cars, on drives in the past. Very hard work especially tricky trying to get the gear box married back to the engine when you are on you back.
VW/Audis seem to be the same way. I learned a trick though, replace the front bolts to the bumper with longer ones and you can pull the front clip with out the stands. Not all of us have a dozen of them.
simply amazing ,wow i used to do morris ,austin gboxes in the gutter when i was young so i know how hard what you do is .lovin your vids man ,you and great western truckin r the best on utube by far .lifting the box and linning it up thru clutch splines haha man what fun
Hats off to you, nice work. I have been an auto tech for over 35yrs. last time I did a clutch on my back for a friend in my garage on a 85 vw gti in the mid 90s. I said never again, I didn't have the strength anymore & barley got it back up. I wouldn't dream of having to have to do one on my back these days. Great watching you making it look easy.

Hats off to you, nice work. I have been an auto tech for over 35yrs. last time I did a clutch on my back for a friend in my garage on a 85 vw gti in the mid 90s.
I said never again, I didn't have the strength anymore & barley got it back up. I wouldn't dream of having to have to do one on my back these days. Great watching you making it look easy. All the best to you
