Do you torque lug nuts?, Nothing to do with charging battery or., airing up a tire 🤔🙄🙏✝️. FOR THE WIFE 🌹♥️. HAPPY SAINT PATRICKS DAY☘️☘️

[@coreybabcock2023]

Please be careful getting the chargers wet I did that with one and it shorted out the Milwaukee charger I'm referring to

[@fff3136]

You should get a bed cap for that ranger should be able find them cheap keep the snow off your tools ect

[@RoadsideRescue]

good idea.

[@coreybabcock2023]

Definitely agree cause you'll get your tools Rusty and nasty quicker

[@stefanobio7045]

​@@coreybabcock2023 Spray WD40 on all the tools after using them and they will be fine. Best regards, Stefano (UK).

[@doug1883]

Seems like he must keep his tools inside then brings them out when they are needed but yeah it would be a good idea!

[@erikrobles5727]

Then it’s just a van ??

[@SuperBabyBuffalo]

Very encouraging to see another mobile mechanic doing well. Gives me hope for my own business. Keep it up!

[@joshmallon5754]

Always verify customer concern with a test drive before. Great videos as always 👍👍

[@brenthann2623]

and that was a job well done.

[@porkchopjp]

hope they gave you a great tip for working in that weather!

[@saqibnawaz5139]

Vry wonderful professional on site both front brake installed on tough rainy snowy day it cleared but commuting to operation site was demanding job welldone by roadside rescue

[@dougsweldingfabrication953]

Brrrrrrrrrrrr.... Nothing about this repair looked fun. Nice job and keep it up !

[@BADD400]

Job well done.

[@patgrace2857]

I did not see u push back the piston

[@jeanclaudevandam4974]

If you turn the wheel towards you you can get much better access to the hardware.

[@MsJhook]

Another job well done

[@kingofkings2934]

Need to get you a 2.5 ton aluimuim jack from harbor frieght it's a good jack and it will save your back totally worth it.

[@PatricksDIY]

Why did you not put the rotor screws back in? I noticed you omitted them after you put everything back together on both sides.

[@omgitsrickatier]

Because they are literally useless on studded hubs. He just saved the next mechanic a ton of hassle. Most Hondas have them probably for assembly purposes in the factory. I did myself a favor and threw them away on my crv when I changed the rotors last.

[@MrMustangMan]

that's why i do stuff myself....

[@marqueskates5873]

@@MrMustangMan that screw is useless for day to day ware. Used only for assembly at the factory.

[@randyanderson4360]

Working in the snow is the meaning of the title right?

[@petergarofolo9385]

Excellent video 👍 👍 👍

[@RoadsideRescue]

Thank you 👍

[@paulmarciello6822]

Love the video! Not sure if you did after but always torque the wheels

[@adamlambert3892]

So I really admire your attention to detail greasing the slides brake pads cleaning the rotors etc. but did you set her up for an appointment for a inner fender liner? That’s not a poke at you not criticizing you just you know stating more future work

[@doug1883]

Another great video keep it up!

[@banger881]

I was doing my neighbors 2007 Honda odyssey brake job at the front in California the car was from out of state with over 220k miles the screws were welded 3 out of 4 so I drilled the the disk rotors screws when you take them off make sure you throw them away it doesn't need it lol😅😂

[@Amen.22]

Yes, you’re correct. Those screws are to hold the rotor on while the vehicle is being assembled at the factory. They’re not needed after they leave the factory.

[@kevinkobayashi]

how long do brakes last? when do they wear out? how many miles can a person go before changing them? does it matter on how a person drives before that first change etc?

[@MrMustangMan]

depends how one drives, quality of the original brake pads..... i have 6 years and 60k miles on the pads i'm using.... getting ready to change them this spring....

[@justinthegarden8963]

I have a question 🙋‍♂️ do you not need to bleed the breaks or do you not show it? I’m about to do this job on a 2018 Nissan Altima. Should I worry about bleeding the breaks?

[@joshruner1348]

semi-metallic pads will eat rotors. I only use ceramic pads for customers, less likely to destroy the rotors.

[@erikrobles5727]

At this point it almost feels like he’s makeing the videos because he has too not because he wants to or enjoys doing it

[@Estes316]

Let me grab a ranch!😂

[@DustySteel]

Was she at least grateful to have her vehicle working safely now?

[@tyronesmith3812]

A mobile mechanic's job is to fix cars for money. That's it. Whether the customers are grateful or not is not our problem.

[@coreybabcock2023]

​@@tyronesmith3812 well I do mobile mechanic and care about the people no matter what that's why my prices are so low cause I understand time's are tough enough and I'm struggling too so it's a win win for me and the customer and never a call back too

[@DustySteel]

@@tyronesmith3812 I care about the people, that’s why I help them; money or not. I’ve helped people for free before because I’ve been there and know what it’s like.

[@jdtractorman7445]

I've often wondered if the businesses that own these parking lots mind if you do repairs in them?

[@RoadsideRescue]

not once has anyone from the business ever said anything. A few times ive been yelled at by people parking and stuff but never had a problem with a repair...

[@lifeofmarco8656]

Dude what state do you live in? Those mountains in the background look so beautiful

[@RoadsideRescue]

Utah

[@raskull35]

Hey Ernest! I was wondering if you could post a link to the leather gloves you’re wearing in the most recent videos? They seem to be holding up pretty good! Thank you!

[@RoadsideRescue]

bought em at ace or something. Just a generic pair of deer leather i think. They are Kinco brand. but next pair im definitly buying a 40$ pair instead of these (25$) fyi. Since leather seems to be what I like.

[@raskull35]

@@RoadsideRescue Oh gotcha! Thank you!

[@roshi98]

Why do I get the feeling that a kid got in big trouble for off-roading in mom's van after you worked on this vehicle?

[@davidc7196]

I missed the screw on the rotor

[@coreybabcock2023]

Not a big deal

[@Jon_2218]

Not telling you how to do your job, but did you put that rotor screw back in?

[@hmccall3]

Not necessary. They're only there to hold the rotor on while it rolls down the assembly line.

[@someusername121]

It’s really common to not bother. Like the other guy said they’re just there to make assembly easier.

[@MrMustangMan]

i always put my rotor clips back on....

[@drew5992]

You never torque??

[@John.Paulis]

How much would that job cost?

[@RoadsideRescue]

probably 300-400

[@John.Paulis]

@@RoadsideRescue wow that’s really good for less than an 8 hour work day 👍🏻

[@craigjorgensen4637]

Does anyone resurface rotors anymore? 😊

[@MrMustangMan]

nope

[@tyler755]

I'm always concerned with the mobile mechanics who don't use a torque wrench and instead just crank the impact on everything lol

[@M.TTT.]

Honestly its their fault for being lazy, unintelligent, and careless to let their vehicle get in such bad shape. They should face the consequences, but they'll probably never learn.

[@frankvetere4423]

Not picking on you Ernest, but do you torque lug nuts 🤔.I just didn't see you 🙄. TRY to show it, liability issue 🤔😉🙏✝️. Better safe than sorry, 🇺🇲 FROM AN OLD MAN IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA 😎♥️. For the wife 🌹❤️✝️🙏😉. It's March 17,wed. 2023👍🤗

[@Amen.22]

I think the torquing lug nuts thing started because of quick lube type places leaving lug nuts loose and wheels falling off while driving, resulting in lawsuits. Torquing lug nuts was probably the result of lawyers getting involved. I’m 69 and I’ve never torqued lug nuts, and I’ve never heard of anyone else doing it either. Now I guess you have to torque everything, even though I don’t think it’s necessary.

[@Enjoyinqtheoutdoors]

Titles have been really exaggerated/misleading recently. Makes me not want to watch. Waiting for something to happen that matches the title and nothing like it happens makes me want to unsub and not watch another one. Just honest thought and opinion.

[@Dustin6980]

So why was it a bad day?
