Camber on a brand new steer axle

[@56Nine]

I don't own a truck, I will never be in your shop. But, man, I enjoy your videos, both the content and the style. Keep up the good work!

[@paullongley1221]

Great film as usual, and shows us never trust something just because it’s new.

[@Drakonniz]

Love the humor you have on your channel. Can't wait to see more videos. I am a disabled U.S. Army Tank Mechanic. I miss working on heavy equipment. Your videos help me cope. So, thank you.

[@k20a3powered]

Not even gonna lie, I’m not a mechanic, a trucker, or even work in the automotive or trucking industry. But I definitely find all of your videos interesting and informative. Awesome work man!

[@Juror63]

RIGHT! 😂

[@RomeKG471]

" And noooo it's not illegal." Too funny!!

[@badgerpa9]

Thank you Sir for the longer form video. It is not too long for me to watch. Your videos are fun and educational. Stay safe and healthy.

[@coreyhorrocks3504]

Bro you do shit proper, taking care of the gear and getting work done properly. That's why I tune in. Keep on keepin on

[@RenoBusdriver]

Don’t get under any vehicle without jack stands. I drive a transit bus so I find this entertaining. Thank you for bringing us along.

[@johnstickles6789]

Really enjoy your longer videos. Great information.

[@bradwallace6751]

Hey man Brad from Brantford Ontario Canada 27yrs heavy truck tec 👍Yes when it comes to hammers never send a boy to do a man's job lol and put your purse down haha always love to get young tec,s with that !!!!! Yes never had to bother with going to the gym did it 8 hrs a day 👍Love all spring pins and bushing and king pins did So many and So much fun wow 😛 Keep it coming 👍 BVW 👍👍👍👍

[@chrisw.7039]

Man you have got to get someone to make foam replicas of that pointer with a handle. They can add there own tape. I would be the first to buy a box of them. 🤣I can see others supporting you and even using them in their videos. Love your videos. The pointer really gets your point across 🤣🤣🤣

[@2ndspingarage]

Saving the life of tools, smart!

[@donsmith9158]

Heavy work😁

[@sulphurPete]

All Brendon's videos are fascinating educational..thanks buddy.

[@AW-xg4zn]

Love your content. You also remind me a lot of a friend of mine that passed away a few years ago. I miss him. Godspeed, friend.

[@michaelmccluskey1155]

I missed some of what you were saying cuz the music was a bit too loud. Thought you might wanna know. Love the info and the channel!

[@mwhitelaw8569]

Dude That intro IS OUTTA THIS WORLD!!! Lookup tiger tool striking nuts for tierods and such man It'll save the ends of the junk we workin' on

[@johnmorrow1628]

Just use a 7/8 deep nut and weld a plate to the top of it. Then smash it with a sledge hammer works great haven't messed up a TRE yet

[@psinclairjr]

No it's not illegal, great way to end

[@Romuls753]

It's incredibly stupid to think that it is, if it got too bad it could cause a steer tire blowout and flip the whole rig, if not kill multiple people

[@ronnieterry4916]

That was very informative. I notice that Volvo trucks have more shake and vibration on the front end than most other brands of trucks. And I'm talking about at speeds of 65 mph and above.

[@captainrex3320]

Love your videos! You gotta lot of skill, technique, and experience and it shows. Keep up the great quality videos!

[@druewilson1079]

I like the long videos thanks keep being funny enjoy channel

[@SuperMacmando]

Bigger hammer get the torch works almost every time ! Nice job!

[@Thedavidsavage]

Broski I would watch 30 minute videos from ya.

[@thomasglessner6067]

Thanks for sharing. Appreciate your commentary during the video, and Bob's help too.

[@michaelpistilli5823]

I took over a school bus service a lead mechanic. A good number of the buses where experiencing excessive front tire wear due to toe out of specifications in some cause 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch it's not surprising what some duck tape, marker and a tape measure makes

[@garykirk1968]

More disc brake stuff please brother. I deal with mostly older stuff, all drum, but those disc systems are getting old enough im gonna have to learn at some point.

[@johndowe7003]

That's what I hate about mechanic'ing eventually you gotta learn a bunch of new stuff if you're in it long enough..

[@scpvrr]

I like your voice over explanations. They’re quite helpful.

[@evankibbe590]

I straiten trailer axels when and set the toe and camber on a machine I made !!! So far I have done only 2 on it but it works great 👍 I have never done more than a 8 thousand pound axle and so far I have managed to eliminate tire wear 😊😊😊😊

[@frankiesaotoandmore5872]

Love it bro keep them coming

[@adcengineer3090]

Bend don't need the gym ..man he gets a full workout evey day 😂👌

[@terrypepper7913]

I'm thinking snap on air chisel to pound out those king pins yes ? Same for tie rod ends they all have a catering dot .

[@slantfish65sd]

Great video! Appreciate it. Appreciate your time. Great learning experience

[@johndowe7003]

Glad yer doing long videos , these are perfect. Great for learning. Them new axles are pretty slick compared to the 2.5t rockwells I've worked on 👌

[@markp0752]

People don’t realize how important axle alignment is. Tractors and trailers.

[@KevinR-wt2do]

You are a great truck mechanic, really knowledgeable, work safe and understand the technology. But please look after your back. Obviously strong but if you keep lifting hubs etc you will be plagued with back and spinal issues. 🇦🇺

[@Romuls753]

Idk why but it kinda surprises me to see a semi with a sway bar

[@ToddKing]

4:00 I was always taught that hammer to hammer blows was a no-no. Because hammers are so hard it can cause the face to chip off and send shrapnel flying. You were wearing your safety squints, right?

[@davidmitchell7183]

Back when I was learning auto body, my mentor told me you can always tell the guys that run frame straighteners, because they had their front teeth knocked out from a chain breaking loose. I guess that puts you into the elite class of benders because you got all you teeth.

[@MrTheHillfolk]

I remember the teacher telling me about a guy tightening main bearing caps in a Mack, and the socket stuck on the bolt and came off the ratchet, and then of course it fell off of the main cap right in his open mouth. Lol to this day I tighten stuff with my mouth closed 😝

[@johnanderson591]

Great job thanks 👍

[@fadingbeleifs]

Well this is definitely an interesting video... My company just took me out of my old truck and put me in a brand spanking new 2024 Volvo VNL 860... It's a bare bones fleet spec truck, prison gray on the inside... I got it with 79.6 mi on the odometer, you have to hold the wheel about 40° to the right to go straight, and the truck is all over the road... As of right now it has 460.5 mi on it.. And it's just getting worse, and my fleet maintenance supervisor in not so many words told me I was full of shit, that it was a brand new truck in that nothing should be wrong with it... Yeah fucking right. I wish I knew where you were man so I might be able to swing through with my truck and let you work your magic on it, because it's driving me fucking crazy.

[@TwoAcresandaMule]

Make them drive it around the block?

[@rowdy7870]

Take it to a Volvo dealership you can drive to the parking lot and show them that the steering wheel is way off center

[@wbarney59]

Took me 10 years to learn toe and camber. 4 soda cans and a tape measure for toe. Some king pins have an eccentric. I'd like to work with you. Wouldn't have to learn the hard way.

[@verteup]

great vids love ur content. the volume throughout the video goes up and down. the music gets really loud. please remove the music. i just like to hear the sounds of you working.

[@rockychristakes951]

I don't know why you thought this video was too long. I want to see more!

[@farmerbrown3768]

Back in my driving days they did not have brakes on the steer axle!

[@theessexhunter1305]

Very nice safe work. atb from the UK

[@TechNWRO]

My nuts hurt when you pulled the hub and brake assembly by hand………..☹

[@sergeantpeppers8858]

Longer videos would be great.

[@andrewbaldwin2359]

I wish I could be your gopher. But I bet I know how much you would hate it. I am just a lowly passenger and light truck alignment tech. But I can’t wait to hopefully be here your at. I think I can. But I diff your loose button style, I rock that too. My alignment old man who still has a few tricks to show me. I’m ranting but I wish I could pick your Brain!

[@Volvosemitruckmechanic4926]

Get a disc brake hub puller. Makes removing and installing disc brake hubs 1000x easier.

[@williamschmidt395]

I need to get my w9 down to ya…can’t hardly trust anyone to align a 4 axle truck these days

[@TwoAcresandaMule]

I wanna see you drop them hubs off there lol. I bet it was a soft enough landing

[@burgegerm7878]

I was surprised that I saw made in Sweden on one of the boxes. I though these North American Volvo trucks were using mostly American components.

[@kmbriggs2693]

Ive seen camber as high as 3 degrees pos. On GMC top kick trucks. I would bend em down to 1 deg.

[@cmonster2639]

The scribe line on the second tire on this video was off. What would cause that and what did you do to fix it? Keep bendin brother.

[@htownblue11]

Hahaha. Hit it with your purse! 😂😂😂😂. Nice.

[@00DDS]

Hey man what’s the torque specs for the spindle. Ohh about tree fiddy.

[@colecook986]

Where’s the link for the merch??

[@phprofYT]

Don't EVER get under ANYTHING without safety in place. Check it twice and have a trusted buddy check it. Don't ask how I know.

[@ricksardella3436]

Great videos i have just watched couple hours lol

[@MrTheHillfolk]

6:54 whos the guy who put a sway bar on that truck? Hes lucky he doesnt wreck!!

[@bendinwithbendon]

The vnls and a few others come with a sway bar

[@Ar1k1]

Awesome videos thanks for posting them. I really like them.

[@tyrandolph5465]

What r u talking about?

[@earleclemans4836]

Do you have part number for tire scribing. Tool?

[@danielbartell]

Do they ever make a semi whereas a four-wheel drive system front wheels can steer and be the drive Wheels

[@notme6071]

Yes.

[@gregoryfairchild2460]

Too much Camber can push or pull to one side. Without positive caster the steering wheel wont try to return to center. Feel like a bad bearing/ball joint etc

[@midbc1midbc199]

Remember guys always lift with your back.......can't go home without aches and pains or it just wouldn't be right

[@JOHNPHUFNAGEL]

that's sad that you have to adjust a brand-new part that was never used. You should be able to put it on and go.

[@snail2171]

4:12 You have nice equipped shop and lot of knowledge but need one small thing to learn. Read the manufacturer manual how to install or uninstall parts before hammering and destroying customer parts. To remove king pin from axle you need to support axle right near king pin with jack. Not everyone who has electric guitar is a rock star but everyone with impact gun is mechanic.

[@brentmiller3951]

How big is your shop..he seems to get plenty of customers .there are more than one way to do things

[@stevebell4906]

Lets see that link to all of your videos ....Bullshit King!

[@WilliamPayneNZ]

I don’t think that overly matters considering he replaced everything with brand new parts.

[@bryantmoon9186]

Perfect ending 😂

[@woodystreeservicePNW]

We need the follow up video bendin!!!

[@SOU6900]

Do you use a torque multiplier for the 600 foot pound?

[@leejohnson6173]

Can do 600 with a 4ft torque wrench no problem..my one inch drive goes up to 750..

[@workinprogress3942]

Hate it when i go through Hell to get the great numbers that makes it drive well .And some 1/2 ass FEA guy cranks shit around and set it up like it 1965

[@thisisyourcaptainspeaking2259]

I'm sure the manufactrer performs this same adjustment.

[@drewcagno]

My dude! I've got a 3/4" torque wrench at work, but holy hell, what's that bad boy like 6 feet long?

The 1,000ft/lb ones are 6' long!

No

ILEGAL,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, That's usually about the time I tell the customer to get their POS the F out of my shop. The other word not to say in my shop is "Certified", that might just get your truck moved out of the shop in pieces with a forklift so you can take it to the "certified" guy
