- čas přidán 1. 05. 2023
- In this video I bring you along as I work on a customers F-250 that had a customer complaint of, "hard to steer and it makes a lot of noise." Didn't take long to see the front axle joints are locked up solid! It trashed one of the lock out hubs too. Oh and it needs some brakes. Come along as we make the rust fly.
-Enjoy!

This is the way mechanics talk to themselves while they work even when there's no camera or anyone else in the shop
That Snap-On ratchet costs more than your high school teacher made in a week 🤣
Bet you’re teacher regrets saying that when he brings his car for fixing
Eric O., part mechanic, part archaeologist. Well done!
An auto mechanic is the only profession that requires an outlay of thousands of dollars in tools before he can even get work!
Teacher said he wouldn't amount to anything. Now he's fixing the teachers car for Billions of dollars
Man, I give you credit. I would've spent like 2 hours cleaning up that dirt show before even looking for bolts. My brain would've exploded otherwise. Great stuff fixing this!
Those old wheel cylinder hones that have been lying unused in the bottom drawer for 20 years work pretty good for cleaning the rusty ujoint holes.
I like when you said " next thing you know, your whole tool box is empty." I've been there so many times!
I changed my first u-joint 50 years ago and had no idea that the chant would help free up a stiff joint. Thanks so much for that revelation! I now feel complete.
Your monologues just get better and better the older you get. Reminiscing about high school days, days with your dad…best Regards Eric
Love your videos. I am a DIYer from the Buffalo area. Only locals can appreciate the extra efforts needed here to get anything done after years of salt exposure.
My absolute favorite mechanic channel. You young men can learn a lot from Eric. His professionalism is top notch.
I swear I can smell the rust in the air. You sir hit the jackpot. A beautiful wife and children. Healthy kids who are good people. A nice house and a good living life. Your a millionaire to most of us. I to have a beautiful wife that still loves me after 37 years. Great kids and great grand kids. Bravo sir in my book your highly successful.
Watching you work on the “crusty rusty” vehicles always makes me grateful to work on my CA car, so thank you!!! Keep up your excellent work, enjoyable video as always. Best to Mrs. O!
Probably not the best episode to watch with a migraine, but my meds helped. I can say, being from northern Indiana, that I don't miss the salt induced rust at all. Great video Eric.
Can’t get enough of this channel. Top notch, second to none. Love the Archimedes lever quote.
Started working on cars in the 70s. This is the first time I heard the chant!! Must have been living a sheltered life. Love the videos.
This is an Academy Award performance. I have watched for years … and this is one of the best.
I'm glad you showed actually pressing the joints, I got yelled at numerous times on my own video same subject for assuming it was simple enough people just knew. Great video as always sir!
