    I have been a car mechanic for almost 30years and I find these videos fantastic because I know nothing about trucks or trailer’s but it looks heavy and hard work. Best video’s on CZcams 🍺

    At last! How effing refreshing to watch a real person/yootoober who says it nice and straight re negative comments etc. None of us are forced to watch, and if you don't like it, jog on and click on something else! I don't have a TV now. Got fed up with spending £100s a year for licences etc only to be presented with bilge such as I'm A Desperate British Got No Talent Celebrity/Attention Seeking Wannabe Who Can't Dance, Has No X Factor, Voice, Charisma And Wants To Get Out Of Big Brothers House blah yada. I prefer to watch real people doing real things whilst educating and entertaining us......
    I was an HGV driver from 1990-2018, and for 9 years was an owner driver, although I always pulled other companies trailers. People like Chris kept my wheels turning throughout, which was always hugely appreciated.
    This is my first visit to the channel, and it won't be the last. Cheers.

    Idk man, it seems like you do quality work to me. Obviously you have to keep the train moving without fucking around. If it wasn't quality, you would have to go back and fix your work all the time. You work hard for your family and you seem to find time to record it which is impressive. Very skilled.

    Best thing to do with people who moan about you is just completely ignore them, don't reply to them and don't even comment on them. They will soon move onto another channel to see if they can get a rise out of someone else. Keep up the good work Chris.

    What you’ve got to remember mate is that even if God posted a perfect 30 minute video some prick would have a moan about it. Some people are full time moaners and they genuinely get a buzz from bringing others down. 99% of comments I see are people same as me who just like the stuff you post. Keep it up and never change 👍.

    Professional strugglers we are matey. I work on trucks and trailers or Lorries in New Zealand. Just spend heaps on my time pulling a sized bearing on the SAF axle, yep designing a puller because the customer doesn't want to spend the money on a new hub and bearings but needs to get the drum off to replace the linings. Great video btw, keep up the good work, there's lots of strugglers out there too.

    I did a set of rear shoes and drums last night on an old 55 reg Scania. Both of the drums were seized on solid, to the point where all the jacking points either stripped out, or cracked open the drum. I had to sledge hammer them off, whilst my mate had a crow bar and scaffold tube behind the spigot. I thought to myself "I'm a professional struggler tonight". Keep up the good work mate.
