I don’t even have a Toyota anymore, and I nearly watched the whole thing because it was just that good. This is by FAR one of the best informational videos I’ve watched on YouTube, period. Thank you!

[damoncrawford]

Thank you for making these vids they mean a lot to me and my family

I just watched the other, longer version but I was curious how you cut so much time out. This is great. I notice you leave out some of the little details but still have all the main concepts. After watching this, I think even as a beginner, I could do the job! Great video ChrisFix I don't know how you made this one even shorter and still have a thorough and complete video but you did it.

Thank you for this video. I won't have to spend $300 now. Such a life saver

Hey Chris I just wanted to let you know I watched a few of your tutorials on how to change brake pads you are the man I did it on my Chrysler 300 rear brakes two weeks in everything good so far

[JamesAutoDude]

And also I'd like to note, its good you're showing the correct procedure of starting the threading of the bolts. I've seen so many people put the bolt into the socket of the ratchet, and try to start threading that way, causing so much damage sometimes. So, awesome work!

Great video. Just wanted to let you know that before I do any repairs etc I first watch your videos.

[JHenry-ttmp]

Thanks for your help. Your video is the absolute best tutorial I have ever seen done. Perfectly put together. Each little step explained in simple terms and in sync with corresponding footage. Subscribed.

Youre a great teacher. Not many out like you. Perfect balance of what to say and put and what not to.

I like how he says consider subscribing doesn't make me feel pressured in subscribing

First hub I ever changed was a PIA, took me like a week and a half to remove the bearing.. Nice video

[Godshole]

Thanks for the time you put into these great little productions. Very clear and straight forward. Much appreciated and your's is the channel I would go to first if I, or anyone  I know, had a car problem.

I pressed my first bearings this morning, thanks to Chris Fix and other channels.  How anyone could press a bearing without power tools is beyond me; Chris must lift weights.  Once I saw how much force is required I bought an electric impact wrench from ChinaFreight Tools, for $38 using a coupon.  It zipped right in.

Thanks for the videos ChrisFix, I learn something new with every video you uploads. KEEP IT UP.

Thanks for this video. Very timely advise with using the slide hammer to get rusted rotors off. I first heard of it from your longer video from a couple of days ago. I just encountered some badly rusted rotors that took 30+ hits with the slide hammer just to get them off. Also, on the outward facing side along the center edge, the was a very think white mineral deposit that I had to chisel off first. Without that slide hammer I don't know what else I would have done. I probably would have resorted to a 10lb sledge and likely would have broke something. Thanks again.

[ScubaCat]

Great video again!  You're pretty lucky on that thing coming out with the slide hammer.  On our rusty windstar, I had to remove the entire knuckle, set it up strategically, and whack it from the back about 8 times with a 6 lb sledge to get it out.

This looked a lot easier than what Eric O has to go though getting a wheel bearing replaced up in upper New York.:D

I dont know if you have already done this but can you do a video on how to clean our a K and N cold air intake (Cone style)
Your descriptions are the best!
