Didn't expect to see that much struggle on an "Easiest" video :D
Appreciate you left all that in though. :)

Always change the bushings it's pure fun!! I change by my self, the front trapezes ones in the Mk5 Gti and it's challenging. I put the purples powerflex and made a huge handling diference. I hope new videos changinng new ones. There are a lot. Good video!!!

Thank you. The perfect video to show me why I cannot find a shop around to do this job on my 2000 buick century.

Just a heads up for anyone looking to buy this tool. It doesn't work on a MK6 Jetta platform. The video says nonspecifically MK6 platforms but this doesn't include the Jettas. I had to pay for return shipping after ordering this part based on this video's comments on it working on MK6 platforms. ECS will not confirm this working on MK6 Jettas.

Lesson one of working on any vw, Never assume the job will be easy bcuz your VW will.make sure it takes 10 days lol when in doubt CUT IT OUT BRING OUT THE GRINDER SAW BOI

[Liquidboof]

This is exactly what I need right now! unfortunately what I don't need is a $300 price tag on something I'll probably only need once...

[SpikesMavic]

Great vid, have just borrowed my mates tool, exactly the same has yours, but the 2 set screws that screw the bar into the subframe is missing, have tried 6mm with a 1mm pitch and 6mm with a 1.25 pitch but neither fit, any chance you could check the size of yours for me ?. cheers . Spike

[keldockery]

Not everybody have that neither do we want to wait how ever one it takes to order that

[hector]

I’m too poor to afford that 😮‍💨 cool tool

[quangdog]

Buying $275 tool in order to install $45 in parts.... any chance you can offer a rental program for this set? I only ever intend to do this job 1 time.

[codenamegordieray]

Yup. I subbed.
And thank you, even though you had so many problems and it took you 10hours for bla blah and you don't have any idea what you're doing I went ahead and subscribed to you and commented on your thread so you could feel that someone likes you🙄🙄.
Poor guys🤔🤔. I guess I should offer a job, or at least career advice 😁🤣🤣.
I'm just screwing around, I like it but I don't even know how you got on my screen, but I'm glad you did. Thank you

Do you know if the STEEL Kit comes with that "Steady Bar" like the Aluminum Kit? In the picture on your website, it doesn't look like it does. Would appreciate 👍

[Bakkerr]

Would this tool work on a 2011 Jetta 2.5? My subframe looks a little different.

[amapolasola]

Did you put grease on new bushing ?...i can see white stuff on new ...

[davidreaver]

great tool. would be great if there was a way to just rent one

[justinrockhill]

Will this tool work on a mk6.5 facelift 1.4t?

[ablemosley]

Thanks, will the subframe bushings cause your car to bottom out when bad

[carwerks]

FYI this will not work on mk7 steel frame

[YungRemy]
