It’s crazy to see how good your production quality has gotten over the years
When the customer gets the bill this is how easy they see it as. We all know what it really took to get to the finished product.
That Transformers sound got me feeling the nostalgia!
I can smell the gear oil through my screen LOL
When I see here is a lot of experience and a lot of specialty tools that’s why I would always have a differential built by a pro like this guy
Thank you for wire wheeling the fasteners. It made me happy.
i was expecting to do this on my sequoia, until i saw im short a few bearing pullers. lol! awesome video as always.

I recently had my diffs re-geared, and it was pretty expensive, but watching all the work that goes into it makes it feel worth it! Haha I took them out myself and put them back in, but I’m definitely not experienced enough to do a re-gear
Another great video, wish your shop was in my town. Keep up the amazing work!
There's a whole year of automotive training condensed into a 2 minute video here. Bravo!
When a guy bust out a file on new parts, you know he knows.
This dude plays no games, some thorough work right there
This guy is a real professional. Notice the lack of Snap-On.
Insane level of knowledge and precision! Good work man.
I can definitely appreciate your skill at your craft. Both the mechanical side, and the videography side. Keep up the great work brother! 🤜🤛
That’s a serious set of skills you got there young man!👍
Kinda miss this kind of work. The pay was meh at best, but it was awesome. Except for the days filled to the brim with contracts
Thats a Craftsman right there!!😊❤
