That's not fixing a "Defect", that's just removing the function of LS. So I wonder why they were doing that to begin with?

the only thing that doesn't cost anything is cleanliness, which none of these shops take seriously. dump it on the ground, mess around with it on the ground and then throw it back in, weighing a bit more for all the dirt and dust now in gears and bearings. No excuse for that. I know this is mostly on the owner but each worker could do their small part to insure a better rebuild that will last longer without all that dust ending up in the works.

@@AffordBindEquipment Did you watch the full video? They rinsed it and had cloths at hand at every step. I mean, sure, there's no way no particle at all passed, but it's not like you described it either.

[@AffordBindEquipment]

@@dragmahk working on cardboard on the ground and the cloths they used being put on the dirty cardboard does not give one much confidence in the cleanliness of the job. bearings can't tolerate any dust or dirt, which will cause them to grind themselves to death.

Pakistan, India they are number#1 smartest people in the entire world this brothers so talented they can't fix anything I telling you this anything, cleaning, repair no matter what worst or destroying is the situation they fixed and Putting grand new, mechanics they are masters I don't know in this earth what countries can't defeat them but ! Wow I giving alots credits to this great country they have a gifts in each bothers hands they love to work in peace I see alots videos uuuuuuuiiiiiiii that is very impressive work really we need people like them in America, God bless you all brothers and yours beautiful countries.

Ok guys this bit of gear is about $300.000 so only drop all the parts in clean dirt. And if the bolts are tight get a bigger hammer. And if we have parts left over we can put them in next week because it will probably be back.

[@joedebosco3047]

What problem were they having with this diff? As a retired mechanic I was dismayed at what I saw here. Filing the teeth off the LSD friction plate! Why, you now have rendered limited slip useless. Using a cold chisel to hammer a bearing into place! I see one fellow broke off the bolt head on diff housing, but showed not replacing it. And, no gaskets!!! But, you have to give them an A+ for effort. They only can do with what one has on hand! I enjoyed the various responses.

[@kkuenzel56]

Why in the Hell would they cut off the internal splines of the limited slip differential clutches???!!! Makes no sense!

this is an awesome approach to mechanical engineering - most unorthodox in places yet excellent nonetheless and at a fraction of the price the main dealer would charge. These guys are superb mechanics and you can only give them maximum respect.

These guys are awesome, without a doubt. But imagine how much more efficient they would be with modern hand tools. Chrome sockets, shallow, mid length & deep. 6 & 12 point. Same with impact sockets. Long handle ratchets. A 3/8, 1/2 & even a 3/4 inch impact guns. Pry bars with ergonomic handles, dead blow hammers, a hydraulic press, shop tables. These guys would be unstoppable.

The men working together are the efficiency, that is their secret. You don't need all that shit when you have help.. The US is based on one man show, and some poor bastard will be at it for hours with fancy tools.. They make the job easier by having people do different things, clean gaskets, extract bolts, machine things, that's way more efficient than a one man show mobile mechanic

[@ShaneHm2]

I 99% agree with that comment, my only other side is that they have such a strong work ethic using what they can and if get to see all this easy modern stuff will they just choose to use new stock of parts and not refurbish any more like they are doing. In western countries (I am from Australia a western one) all we do is take out the old throw it away for scrap iron / whatever metal and then install a new part of the local autoparts store. Rarely do we rebuild it etc

As the chief safety officer and engineer for the country, I approve the use of the special safety pyjamas and safety sandals. Likewise, the use of the speciality scouring sand used as the floor covering is a welcome sight, as this sand, when introduced into the gear axial will clean and scour all the bearings, this making returns less expensive.

[@javeedsultan8484]

@@educatedmanholecoverbyrich8890 Hello and nice to meet you I have read and taken on board your comments How ever on closer inspection I have noticed the following 1) if you observe the safety sandals more closely you will see some workers are using unbranded sandals, and therefore not certified for use as safety Sandals s (ee note 1 for further info) 2) we accept your explanation regarding the secondary use of sand and thank you for your considered response We did have a whistleblower with a complaint, were were about to speak to the whistleblowers Manager directly, who assured us, he would supply a tube of vaseline FOC to the whistleblower A long term plan is being implemented next week to easy the concerns of the whistleblower, starting Monday all whistleblowers ars able, (free from any consequences ) to change from a whistle to a bell for singling break times As we all know the only Sandals certified as compliant are Bata Chaplal.
