Great video, informed me that I really do not want to attempt this by myself and will be worth the $s for an install by a competent shop.

Very complicated install. I’m happy I paid the $300 install fee for my Truxx leveling. Good video. You know what you’re doing.

Would you consider doing a playlist of “general” car maintenance guides to this Ridgeline? Things like changing brakes, transmission fluid change/flush, differential fluid, oil change, along those lines?
@eddiesspeedgarage3 жыл бұрын
Yes we just decided to keep my wife’s passport so there’s a few things on that that will be relevant across the siblings. And first up is a front brake and rotor change. Thank you for your suggestion

Question, how did the alignment shop do the alignment since their system only compares what "factory spec tolorances" should be in order to dial in the alignment? Can they modify the alignment data to compensate for the kit? Great step by step. Looks straight forward. Just basic strut removal.

Great video! Would you happen to have the torque specs? axle nut, control arm, ball joint etc. ?

What is the exact tool name and if you can get the part number for removing the lower control arm? I rented a Lower Ball Joint Puller from parts store and it wouldn't fit. Minute 5:12 of your video shows the tool you used. Thanks a million

It’s a ball joint separator from harbor freight. I did have to open it up some to fit the ball joint correctly
@Gearboxrb00017 Жыл бұрын
@@eddiesspeedgarage Once you bought if from Harbor Freight, grinded it to be a larger opening to fit the ball joint spindle just above the boot? Thank You for the follow up.

Nice tutorial Eddie. Did you encounter any problems getting the alignment back to specs? Traxda makes a 2 piece strut cap with 2 degrees of adjustment to help the process but requires trimming down the strut studs which I don’t want to do.

I took it to Belle tire gave them the manufacturer specific alignment requirements and it’s just fine. No change in ride.

Do you remember approximately how many turns it was to adjust your headlights back down to stock. I have a 2020 Black Edition like yours...thanks in advance.

I don’t sorry but it didn’t take much since the headlights have a definite cut off.

Is it 35mm or 36mm for the axle nut?
@Gearboxrb00017 Жыл бұрын
36mm I just removed the nut with a 6 point 36mm impact socket. Rented it from a parts store.

You may have to make the opening of the fork wider. These tools vary quite a bit
