I just subscribed to your channel, this is the best video I've seen step by step with detailed instructions. This is exactly how you learn to work on your car and save hundreds of dollars. Something as easy as replacing your Rotors and brake pads, a mechanic will charge close to a thousand dollars. When you do the work yourself, it makes you feel good and proud of yourself. I'm loving these videos.
Thank you very much, it really does mean a lot!!!! I'm very glad the videos help. And thank you for subscribing 🙏
thank you for detailed procedure - I will replace it this weekend by your excellent video!
Thanks again for another great video. I have learned a lot from watching your videos. You have given me the confidence of doing work on my truck and saving me money!
That's awesome. I'm very glad to hear that!!!! Let me know if you have any questions
I'm thinking this could possibly relate to the Nissan Frontier as well I'm going to have to check it out
Definitely an easy job
Congrats on 3k subscribers
Thank you
Hey man, I love your videos. The way you explain every detail is so clear. I was just wondering if you could do a video on how to install ambient lighting in the 5th gen Altima
I mean like the light strips that you put in the crevices of the car including the door. If you can do that please let me know when. I would love to do it on my 2014 Nissan Altima
At the current moment, we don't have any lighting projects on the production schedule.
Ok thank you. Please take it into consideration
I been doing mechanic work since I was 16. I feel bad for people with one car that have to work on their own cars then end up getting the wrong part at the store. Reminder: auto part vendors usually don't know much about cars.
Sounds like there was an incident. What happened?
I know you said you don’t have anything about lighting on the schedule, but could you please think about adding it. I would greatly appreciate it
Understood
This guy!!!! Coming through with more needed info💯🤙!! I do have a question: Tires/Rims where did you get them and do you have a link for them?
Thank you very much. Discount Tire (Splice): www.discounttire.com/buy-wheels/liquid-metal-splice/p/61711
@@mcgurrentertainment You're welcome and thank you!! Awesome!!! 🤙
Anytime
Should they both be replaced at the same time?
It's ideal to do both. Plus, you only need to do the alignment once, if both are done at the same time.
