    Awesome video! The only thing I'd say is that it's good to drill the hole extra deep. This can greatly aid in removing the bolt, especially if you have to spin & pull it. Cheers!

      Yep good advice. And easily doable with modern brushless drills

    Good work on this video. As Usual. Quite comprehensive.
    I also wonder why the 5 piece bolts have so many bits. The bolt you have seems like a much smarter design.

      Thanks again mate! I assume the extra parts are to aid removal by preventing sleeve mangling. Or maybe to hold the sleeve in with a softer material so when pulling it out after undoing the bolt, it actually goes. The only bolts I've seen here with the extra plastic parts on the sleeve are the Hilti high-load bolts, like 20mm wide. In this vid I wasn't able to get the sleeve out, as happens, because it gets deformed and just wedges in there by itself. Which sucks because I remove these all the time but never when the camera's rolling

      Also, I was going to link to one of your vids for the wedge bolt removal technique, do you have a preference? Maybe the Tahoe rebolt?

    Noticed the spanner break at the end have you ever tried the Bacho ratchet spanners they're great and 4 sizes in 1

      No I haven't! Is that Bahco or a different brand? Bahco's pretty nice

    Great video content!! @MountainMullet I noticed you switched drills from two years ago. Are you finding the Bosch is better/faster than the dewalt? Do you have preferable drill bits?

    • @MountainMullet

      I have many drills now! I test them on my other channel. I think they're basically the same. DeWalt in general a bit faster drilling but Bosch seems a bit better made & more durable. But all the main tool companies are competitive so there's no huge differences between them (aside from Hilti. Those drills are something else)
