Broken Wheel Stud Replacement - So Easy A Kid Does it

[@honkymonkey9568]

This not only makes Sage comfortable and knowledgeable in order to work on her own car someday but the confidence and self-sufficiency she'll gain will transfer over to other aspects of her life.

[@gailmyers2838]

Sage is adorable. I just want to say that as a woman who was raised by a military dad with 3 older brothers, giving a young woman mechanical knowledge is priceless. I don't know how much money I have saved over the years by knowing a thing or two about cars. I've been quoted thousands for rack and pinion replacement, then went home and replaced the $20 tie rod ends. I was given a quote yesterday for over $400 for wheel hub assembly replacement because I have a broken lug stud (I'll be fixing that myself for about $3). On behalf of women everywhere, thank you for teaching her about cars.

[@MechanicLife]

Thanks Gail! Sounds like you have a wealth of information you can teach as well.

[@bonniej2609]

Also, as a lil-bit-older Female - I Thank The LORD ABOVE - for Giving me a dad who raised me in a Garage🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@fabian4213]

Excellent! The most important thing is you are creating memories with your daughter.

[@oaivpeolgnhp]

Thanks for showing a tutorial from a kids POV makes it easier to understand than all the videos of people hammering the crap out of their wheel

[@saintnificent5532]

Damn! That little kid is a better mechanic than A Lot of ASE mechanics I've run into over the years!

[@MechanicLife]

Right! ;)

[@aldee3018]

i smiled through this whole video, nothing brings kids and adults together better than getting dirty while working on a car. she will always come back to that memory.

[@xdrvpgvdxf978]

Thank you this video was very thorough I only had to watch once and replaced mine

[@JF-sv7qo]

I ❤ it that you have your child involved. This is how tribes passed on knowledge. Hands on. Keep America 👍🏾 GREAT

[@TheRjkborba]

I am jealous of your relationship with you and your daughter, you are an awesome dad

[@MechanicLife]

Shes a great kid!

[@joshuafox935]

Way to be a good father brother! that really warms my heart I do the same thing with my kids 👍👍

[@MechanicLife]

Thanks! Teach kids early and they will have something to serve them all their lives.

[@hawk68686]

That is so cool of you getting your little daughter to help you with mechanical things on a vehicle like that.. HOPEFULLY, she will retain what you have taught her about working on vehicles so if her car does break down, she will know how to fix it. If not she will be able to go back to where you were teaching her how to work on vehicles, she could get herself out of a mess. Good on you Dad. And keep up the great work with you and your daughter. So Awesome.

[@TimothyNIX-nm1dj]

Nothing better than living in Montana ❤❤❤ my dad and his two brothers were born in BUTTE... I lived there in 1987.. great to see your daughter helping like a champion 😃✌🤙

[@matteverts756]

Awesome, I just busted a wheel stud and this probably saved me a bucket of money and a load of stress

[@Brianscoronet]

My dad taught me about car repair years ago, he's been gone 37 years, im 67 and still work on my cars, saved thousands of dollars DIY. My mom was from Montana, but i cant remember what town.

[@johna7450]

She's all Montana! My mom is from Montana and I can definitely see her doing the same thing at that age. Great job!

Came here for help and left with this info and inspiration when I have a kid someday… Father and kid goals!!

[@orboakin8074]

Sir, i can't thank you and your daughter enough for this video😊👍 I just changed one of ny studs on my first car (Pontiac g3 2010). Me and my dad where changing the brake drums when we broke stud. Since we had no power tools, i figured we were done byt your video showed how to do it with just a ratchet! I went and bought a torque wrench and the right sockets and me and my brother and father finally got it done! Thanks!

[@country_kitty]

She's absolutely adorable!🥰 Girls can fix cars too. Good on you for teaching her.👍❤️

[@MechanicLife]

Shes a rockstar for sure!

[@manuelramos4608]

As a young mechanic thats Legit goalssss, can’t wait to have a daughter to show her how to work on cars

[@ferndog1461]

How to have a happy marriage: make sure to tire out the kids with physical labor. Mix in the memory card games. You grow a good child brain. Peace.

[@colefitzpatrick3301]

I needed to know how to do it step by step and i got informed and restored my faith in humanity. When id help my dad do something like this. I would hold the light and get yelled at. Your a great dad!

[@johnathandougherty]

6:12....."Wait! We need to drink some water. It is very hot outside." Love it. Good on you dad for teaching her some car repair.👍👍👍

[@evangeline5871]

Awesomeness! I used to help my father work on trucks & cars now I'm 50 and I just do it myself. Love my father❤🌹🙂 yepperz, he is also teaching his grandchildren too. Totally magnificent!! Keep up the great work! & keep learning Sage!! Thank you for water reminder also. 🙂

[@andrewjackomos363]

Thank you for this. With daughters and grand daughters stuck overseas due to Covid for past 20 months this is the best medicine.

[@ktpowerwashing]

Fantastic video! You helped me to replace 2 broken lugs on my trailer. A little easier on my end since no brake assembly. Thank you Both for your help. And Definitely for the water suggestion, it was 104° during my repair.

Very cool!

My "little" girl is getting married next summer. Enjoy those young years. I'm enjoying these years too, but its different. I immediately recognized that hub cap as a 70's GM truck. Had several years ago. Thanks for the video.

@@MechanicLife The stud doesn't want to come out. I tried with or without the punch and it seems to be stuck or something. I put W40 and waited a bit still nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks

Man this makes me excited for the future helping my kids learn to work on stuff themselves!

[@MechanicLife]

Pretty cool!

[@michaelfrick3687]

Well done! Thanks for the demo. And what a great Father you are, teaching your daughter valuable Life Lessons like: 1. Do it yourself. 2. Girls can learn, appreciate and do things which are typically for boys only. Kudos to you!

[@ballershanelle]

When women do more in any field, men stop complaining and what not about how hard or long something takes. Last night, My befriend mechanic was bitoching all this and that and it's almost sun down, cry cry cry about doing my brakes. He was trimming as I was mowing around at 5pm. I went in after cutting grass and put a pot roast in the oven and veggies, walked back out and put on the front brakes of my truck within 40 minutes. He was peddling around. I got in around 7 to finish cooking for both of US to eat and showered. Guess what he did: walked away slowly, washed up, and sat down to eat. Nothing came out about wut can't be done. He did thank me for cooking on a Friday nite. I work everyday and there's no time restraints or whatever excuse when things have to be done. We expose the true mentality of folk when others see the job vs it being just a guy's job. We need more females in plumbing, home contracting and auto. Bravo for teaching you child to be independent, if needed, in auto maintenance

[@karenhowell7850]

Teaching children how things are done is a great gift.

[@MechanicLife]

Right!

[@dougreid2351]

Thanks. Sage was a refreshing & fun note in a useful video.

[@anonymousanonymous9606]

Thank you! I was on a road trip with the family when my wheel started wobbling. Pulled over and saw several sheared! Thought "Well, looks simple but I don't know how to actually do it." Googled and found your video! You and your kid helped save the world today! :D Thanks.

[@MechanicLife]

Thats awesome! Good on your for taking it on yourself too.

[@davidbatin1699]

She's adorable & daddy's little girl. More little boys & girls should be taught the basic auto mechanics.

[@jatagdc]

This is awesome brother! Way to go Sage! I have 3 girls myself. Definitely planning some daddy/daughter time like this.

[@catherinefisher624]

I loved this video! My dad wouldn't let us drive till we learned how to change a tire and I'm proud to say that I've changed a lot of tires in my lifetime on not only my trucks but on friends' vehicles as well! I've even taught two people how to change tires on their cars when they were stranded & had no clue what to do. I've got a seized lug nut on my old 1986 Ford F-150 & am watching lug bolt replacement videos just in case anything bad happens, and that's how I stumbled upon this video. You have a new subscriber now! Keep up the great work! (And hopefully I won't need to replace my lug bolt but I like knowing that I can if I have to).

[@MechanicLife]

Thanks! That it a great story. Thanks for sharing!!:)

[@catherinefisher624]

I also really liked that she highly encourages us to stay hydrated - smart girl!

[@rototiller78]

Gosh, I hope your daughter stays excited to be helpful. My 3 kids were excited to be helpful til about 8 and now that they are teens or pre teens, they throw massive tantrums whenever asked to do anything. Godspeed Sir.

That is a very good point!
