[@jefft4629]

Thanks BJ, learn something new every day. Your 'Tangents' channel is certainly aptly named!! Keep 'em coming!

[@tangentsbhb]

Haha glad to hear it!

[@jefft4629]

Maybe link a coupon code to your 97 grain bread! JK @@tangentsbhb

50 years of spannering and I have never heard of that one before! Quite timely too; I am about to pull the engine on my Series 3 Land Rover so I now know what to do if the spigot bearing is shot! Thanks a lot.

[@tangentsbhb]

Well Im glad its now on your radar!

[@peem1244]

Gives a whole new meaning to 'packed lunch'. 😂😂

[@tangentsbhb]

🤣🤣

[@peteraitken6494]

Never seen that done before works really well lol who would have thought ,you learn something everyday great trick mate 👍👌❤️

[@tangentsbhb]

I think for me it was something like a rumor but once I searched it it seemed like a popular proven method. Glad to showcase it!

[@robertalexander2506]

Good idea, not messy like grease!

[@tangentsbhb]

Yeah really easy clean up!

[@scottmoto]

LOL. Honestly, I was skeptical. That's pretty cool.

[@tangentsbhb]

It can now be put in your back pocket in case you need it 😉

[@Retirement_Life]

Cool trick. Never seen this before!

[@tangentsbhb]

Im not sure how widely known the trick is but I was happy to showcase it!

[@upsidedowndog1256]

I have always just used grease. Cheap bread may work better (no grains, just mush). That bearing looks like it was ready for sure!

[@tangentsbhb]

Yeah I wanted cheap bread but refused to go buy an entire loaf lol

[@malcolmclenton1663]

Amazing !😲

[@tangentsbhb]

Worked really well!

[@wolfburgherr5433]

wow!! 👍nice to know. thanks

[@tangentsbhb]

🤘🤘

[@S2NAZ]

I used a small pilot bearing slide hammer and they came out in seconds 😁

[@tangentsbhb]

Definitely the right tool but I wanted to try this way for fun!

[@davidparker3346]

I always used very thick grease.

[@tangentsbhb]

Also good

[@DocJonesGarage]

Nice trick

[@tangentsbhb]

I was very surprised how easy it was!

[@mikekovacs8981]

I think you need to compare the nice looking caraway seed rye to cheapo white bread LOL

[@tangentsbhb]

Hmm, i wonder how I could set that test up as it would be hilarious

[@XJRabbits]

Let it eat!

[@tangentsbhb]

Didn't even need the big hammer

[@paulwhite7475]

I use grease

[@tangentsbhb]

well now you have bread as an option

[@llandor]

Now I just picture some italian mechanic using focaccia on his Alfa Romeo

[@tangentsbhb]

😂😂😂😂 I mean it's only proper! Perhaps seaweed wrap on Japanese cars would work best over there.

[@llandor]

@@tangentsbhb Now that I think about it, I wouldn't be surprised if rise also worked, just uncooked so it doesn't squish that much...

[@MrNiklas1967]

Hi buddy

[@iamrichrocker]

one wonders how the dude who first tried this came up with the idea? during lunch i assume..

[@tangentsbhb]

Hahaha I'm sure it was a real eureka moment!

[@bertbog5088]

Another good reason if you want to live a long and healthy life don't eat bread :(

[@tangentsbhb]

What is life without bread?
