I like how this particular job was done on a rusty, less than pristine set up. It’s easier to work on a vehicle when it’s components are in great condition. This vid shows how easily it can be done even if you run into rust. Great job! Keep it up!

Torque spec “couple bonks with hammer”
Best channel for auto repair. I love how you don’t use pristine vehicles too

I clicked on this video fully expecting a nice, clean, pretty new looking truck being worked on. I am happy to see somebody actually showing what it's going to look like in the real world. Great video just a great help!!

My God have they been driving that truck on a salt flat for 10 years? Great video!

[billyrayvalentine]

Absolutely one of the best video series I've ever seen. Worst case scenario vehicle and a calm, cool, collected mechanic. Thank you 😊!

[stevenm.hollis]

Good video...However, trucks that are found at the bottom of the ocean, well, should probably be left on the bottom.

I love your enthusiasm it’s very inspiring video and very informative thanks for sharing this video.

i always learn something new from your video. like obviously the content at hand but also the subtle techniques like you took apart the wheel bearing while it was on the truck instead of trying to figure out a good way to hold the knuckle when it was off the truck to apply torque to the wheel bearing bolts!

i've learned so much from your videos. thank you!

[roubikazarian]

I like the way he is explaining the entire process.

[bigmancleverman]

great video, quick, straight to the point and no BS.

[angelaheleman]

Thanks for making a realistic video showing the rust. Great vid thanks!

Always amazed at how much rust these Tacoma can accumulate and yet still run and get you from a to b. Love my taco! Thankfully it has far less rust than this old beast

"couple of loving bonks" then out comes the baby sledge

[peterespinoza]

The best video. Full and detailed explanation, furthermore with step by step graphics. Thanks so much.

[paulmiller]

Thank you brother for this video. would have never got this job done without it. make sure you replace the whole hub and bearing assembly when doing this job had to take my large sledge hammer to it to get it free. didnt look to pretty after it was out

[peterhoag]

The 4 hub bolts on my 2011 were 16mm. FYI Great video and TY from VT. And dust cover? Mine was totally gone from rust, TG the center was still there.

I live on the west coast, walking distance to the ocean and my truck looks brand new compared to that rust bucket ha, thanks for posting the video!

[azimsalas]

Thank you so much, this video was a huge help that led to the success of me replacing my hub assembly.

Great video, clean and to the point, thanks!
