    Sage is adorable. I just want to say that as a woman who was raised by a military dad with 3 older brothers, giving a young woman mechanical knowledge is priceless. I don't know how much money I have saved over the years by knowing a thing or two about cars. I've been quoted thousands for rack and pinion replacement, then went home and replaced the $20 tie rod ends. I was given a quote yesterday for over $400 for wheel hub assembly replacement because I have a broken lug stud (I'll be fixing that myself for about $3). On behalf of women everywhere, thank you for teaching her about cars.

Since we had no power tools, i figured we were done byt your video showed how to do it with just a ratchet! I went and bought a torque wrench and the right sockets and me and my brother and father finally got it done! Thanks!

      When women do more in any field, men stop complaining and what not about how hard or long something takes. Last night, My befriend mechanic was bitoching all this and that and it's almost sun down, cry cry cry about doing my brakes. He was trimming as I was mowing around at 5pm. I went in after cutting grass and put a pot roast in the oven and veggies, walked back out and put on the front brakes of my truck within 40 minutes. He was peddling around. I got in around 7 to finish cooking for both of US to eat and showered. Guess what he did: walked away slowly, washed up, and sat down to eat. Nothing came out about wut can't be done. He did thank me for cooking on a Friday nite. I work everyday and there's no time restraints or whatever excuse when things have to be done. We expose the true mentality of folk when others see the job vs it being just a guy's job. We need more females in plumbing, home contracting and auto.
      Bravo for teaching you child to be independent, if needed, in auto maintenance

    I loved this video! My dad wouldn't let us drive till we learned how to change a tire and I'm proud to say that I've changed a lot of tires in my lifetime on not only my trucks but on friends' vehicles as well! I've even taught two people how to change tires on their cars when they were stranded & had no clue what to do. I've got a seized lug nut on my old 1986 Ford F-150 & am watching lug bolt replacement videos just in case anything bad happens, and that's how I stumbled upon this video. You have a new subscriber now! Keep up the great work! (And hopefully I won't need to replace my lug bolt but I like knowing that I can if I have to).

    Good job by you both.
    Question: if you hammer the stud so it sits in the hub but isn't quite flush, would the tightening of the lug nuts flush it against the hub?
