Tony (AV Boys) Broke the "White Cracker" 4 Eye Fox, But HOW bad did he break it?

[@mikebas7325]

Another high-quality repair by the Lucore group. Love these videos, the in-depth process is much appreciated for a backyard car guy like me. Been watching this channel for a while and for some reason it took until now to finally subscribe.

[@LucoreAuto]

Well we appreciate you continuing to watch what we do Sir, and officially welcome you aboard. We are very fortunate with what we do and work on and the ability to share it with folks, not many shops get to work on the wide range of things we do.

[@billyray8062]

Haha Austin, "you think we can just glue some teeth back in"? Don`t worry, Tony WILL break it again!! Great job as always guys!!

28 to 35 on the pinion depth shim always pretty close on a ford 8.8 I always set mine at 20 inch lbs on the pinion and if you can beat the carrier in with a dead blow the carrier pre load is just right

Some times if you don't break anything, your not trying hard enough. Demolished third member and twisted axle. Tony apparently tried really hard.
