Sealing Bats Out Of The Roof
#roofing #repair #bats
Super neat repair on a referral from a prior customer. This was really fun to experience. The ridge vent was not trimmed to size, but instead installed with about one foot hanging over the edge of the ridge. This was just enough of a gap for the bats to crawl through the ridge vent and into the open section of the attic where the hot air escapes. We just removed the ridge vent and cut it to the correct length. It worked out great!
Very happy for this homeowner that we were able to help! Thanks for watching.

Ruined roof from mechanical damage.

Just a random insurance claim inspection in GA. Lot of the mechanical damage boxes are checked on this one. I'm doing my best to say the thing without saying it here, but we all know how this happened. For additional inspection videos check out the other videos on the channel. This will help distinguish between this junk and the real deal. Thanks for watching! Music by Bensound.com/royalty-free...

SWISS CHEESE DA Integra ep24 Hood pins
Просмотров 795 месяцев назад
#swisscheese #daintegra #racecar Motivation is finally here to begin and complete the turbo build. Before we do the sexy part of installing the manifold and snail, we are installing hood pins to have easier access to the engine bay. It's a huge help because our battery shut off is still inside the bay. Music I use: Bensound.com License code: KHHUQIPNZASNV8CB
Treehouse fort out of deck wood

Fast 2005-2021 Frontier Alternator replacement FROM THE SIDE
Great video! The quick tutorial is the way to go. Mine is charging but I can hear a bearing ready to go. Sounds like its coming from the alternator. I think I'm going to go ahead and do it now before I get stranded.
@@brandonwells9384 thanks for watching 😁
I have the NISMO catback coming this week. This would probably help your truck out since you have the CAI on it..
@@PRO4XKEV still on the fence with an exhaust. I want one for gains in power and/or mpg but don’t want the drone at cruising speeds. Let me know how you like the Nismo. They’re stuff is usually great.
Looks good 👍
@@andresgalindo479 Thanks, Andres 😁
The wire clips in the back pop out with a screwdriver. Do that first while the alternator is stable.
the frontier doesn't have the best MPG we already know this, but did you see any big changes after the lift or stayed about the same?
@@jessiesineath7702 I didn’t notice any difference in mpg.
i think im going to get the rough country lift as well, was looking at some cheaper ones on amazon but not feeling too good about them.
Thanks for this video. This was a no nonsense video and unlike some of the other videos on RUclips where people just talk random mumbo jumbo B.S for 10 minutes and keep going off topic. Your video was straight to the point, very informative and explained and filmed in a good way that's easy to understand. It was really helpful. Thank you!
285/70/17 will rub so that’s a no go for me 👎🏻
He killed the sound intentionally for CYA reasons. This way if you do that fix, forget you did it, and run over your dog or drunk friend, then you can't turn around and sue him by saying that he "told" you how to do it.

After you turn off the water supply and before you unbolt the toilet from the floor, quickly pour a 5 gallon bucket's worth of water into the bowl. It will create enough force to suck almost all the water out of the toilet thus making it possible to remove the toilet without spilling water.
Thank you so, so much. We were dreading taking everything off…
Do you know if this messes with the warranty at all, I just recently bought a 2024 pro4x trying to figure out, I’m my warranty will be voided when I install this
@@Thisguy121242 a Nissan Tech assured me it did not. He rode in the truck to check this clunky transmission and we talked about mods. He said you would need to get internal or into engine management (a tune) to void the warranty.
@@TheAdamConners appreciate you
@@Thisguy121242 thanks for watching homey 👍🏽👍🏽
Just a comment. If this repair is being performed under an insurance claim where the goal is to return the building to Pre Lofts condition…. The entire Ridgeboard gets replaced in one piece.
@@anthonyvangelos978 how long you going to fight with SF over that? This guy threw in the towel after 9 months.
I'm gonna try this myself after a shop quoted me $900. Thanks for the video

Congratulations bunch of guys working but no installation instructions at all.
Dammit. I was trying to avoid potentially lifting mine. I am trading in my 17 sr5 in for a 22 pro4x on Saturday. I lifted my tacoma with all new shocks and struts. I'm kind upset I put the money into the tacoma stupidly. My wife and I have a 8 month old and I need more space now lol. Gonna give you a subscribe

So what happens once you can prove these are man made? Are the home owners in on this? Or do you think they’re clueless?
@@SammyBenitez the insurance can do everything to build a case but unless the state takes up the case it goes nowhere. GA seems to condone it my opinion 🤷🏻♂️. Most homeowners have no idea, but some are definitely in on it.

why all the other videos dissemble literally everything top and bottom of the knuckle? even shocks. are you telling me all i gotta do is disconnect the ball joint from the top and thats it
@@UnpopularGameGuy yep. The drivers side is pretty pita though. You can’t easily pull the bolt out if the nut is on the wrong side as discussed in the comments. But yeah, no idea why they are removing stuff below the strut
Man I swear I thought for a couple of seconds it was Cassidy Campbell 😂
Thank you so much for this, just got my front brakes done! As an addition, I did not have the caliper compressor tool that you used here, though i had a large C clamp that worked just fine. I'm sure this video helps a lot of folks save a lot of $$$!
@@corydumont1141 nice! Glad it helped you out Cory 👍🏽
Would anything happen if i dont install the spreading clips? They keep falling off
@@eljimy13 yea may get a pad sticking to caliper when brake pedal is not pressed down.
Thanks a lot! With all my recent visits to the shop i realized i was about to cover the technician's son's college tuition, so I've kinda become a tree shade mechanic. This is my next project. Great video. Simple and to the point.
@@eljimy13 glad to help! Thanks for checking us out 😁
Not sure if this is a bad idea but I have used a damp magic eraser to get that off on a few vehicles.
Alternators are like relationships, you think they will last forever , but seldom do 😂

That is spot on video, thank you so much , I’m a technician and that was explained perfectly , I replaced my battery, but removed the positive fuse block and checked , found some green in connectors , but charging now , likely need an alternator soon , so this was extremely helpful, thank you , roger
@@rogergodin6443 hell yea 👍🏽. Thanks for watching bro
Huge thanks dude. Nissan packs everything so tightly on these trucks that most repairs only have one way of working. One note (sorry if it's been covered) - the bottom bracket is only held on to the engine block by one bolt. It shifts on that bolt really easy when prying the alternator out. It's easy to assume the bracket is bent or the store gave you the wrong alternator when it doesn't line up. Just loosen that bolt when installing the alternator. It makes it a little easier. Thanks again for this video.
@@nagosnell thanks for watching and helping 👍🏽👍🏽
I drive a 24 SV rwd Frontier and I'm getting 30mpg on the country roads of east TN where the speed limit is 55 and on the interstate I'm getting 25.6 based on what the truck is telling me. I plan to do some testing after I put some miles on the truck, currently it has less than 500. What are the benefits of a Cold Air Intake?
@@nikonmark37814 how the hell?!? 🤷🏻♂️
@@nikonmark37814 little bump in power and gas mileage.
Great video! I know you’ve streamlined/edited it. Did it take a fair bit of “wiggle” to get the old alternator out. I’ve got all three bolts out but it isn’t wiggling my side to side. Mostly just moving up and down
@@russwehnerjr2077 you’re going to have to push/pull sideways enough to press that …fitted nut? I’m not sure what it’s called but it has to compressed to pull out. When installing the bolt on the new alternator it will press it back out and tighten up. Hard to explain but you aren’t going to hurt anything going hard on the left right motions
@@TheAdamConnersfitted nut? Think I’m at a loss on that. But, I’ll be back at it tomorrow, running out of daylight.
Yeah, my corner looks like this x10. lol.

those poles need to be thrown away lol
@@Dylansupraharris dead grandparents’ 🤷🏻♂️
I did this on my 2007 Frontier and it wasn’t too difficult on the passenger side until I got to the driver side. I replaced struts and control arms. However, when you get to the driver side the steering column is in the way and will not allow enough room to take out the bolt on the control arm. I had to move the steering column which needs to be put back in perfect position. This dude makes it sound like it’s basic auto 101 stuff.
@@AndyLopez-x4k on the drivers side, did you flip-flop the nuts and bolts? My truck had the nut on the side where I didn’t have to pull out anything else. But if was installed the other way around I don’t see any other way to slide the bolt out. Hope that makes sense. I believe it was the rear nut and bolt on the drivers side. Thanks for choking in about that.
@@TheAdamConnersno sir. I’m sure it’s not detrimental to do so but I decided to keep it to engineering specs. I put a leveling kit on it when I first bought it which destroyed my ball joints. I decided to bring it back to stock and checked this video out for a quick reference. Got to the driver side and said F#%!. All good though. Lesson learned.
Yea factory they have the driver side rear bolt where either you a screwed or you have to remove the column. Unless your like me and just cut the damn thing then go back the opposite direction and piss on that factory specs. I see it as a money grab for the dealer to make a lick on the noob who sees that and gets intimidated. Also if a buddy is with you and slightly pulls the column as you wiggle the bolt it will come on out. I helped do one that way also. Not the end of the world but seems someone done changed the creators to the way I’m explaining so if it is then it’s pretty easy.
@@thinkcreate5596 no cutting, I’m better than that. I just marked the position of the steering column and fingered her out. That’s what she said !
@@thinkcreate5596 I’m with you on that. Easy money for the dealer
Did this have an adjustment to require an alignment after?
@@Will-qn5no yea you should always have alignment checked.
Hey would you happen to have the exact tool you used for the ball joint separator or where you got it. I need to get it for mine.

Does screwing into the tree damage it much?
@@debuenzo no from what I understand, the tree will heal the wound with resins and oils. Overtime it strengthens that area.
I wonder if this breaks my lease
