I'm 73 and started my working career as a gofer at a body shop that my Uncle worked at. My Uncle was a master at engineering with no formal education in it. He built a frame machine from some old truck trans to be able to gear the pulling and winches. His was amazing and is still in use today. I gotta say the Chinese frame puller is impressive. I like watching cars being put back on the road again so I just subbed and liked. Keep up the good work.
Welcome to the group.His brothers are working at the family's shop and pretty much do frame work.(23rd Garage).They do Awesome frame straightening,and repairs.
The amount of experience Vtune has is what makes the difference. Impressive.
@@conor7154 pretty sure he’s not a ground dwelling rodent😜 but he did go fer parts when asked
@@conor7154 it’s so unfair though that they have to do the same stuff all the time. Almost like Groundhog Day.
The main problem i see with pulling bent metal is, it loses its strength and i hope no one gets hurt if they are in a accident with such a reworked car.
If you can do more of these type of projects and some like the quick fixes you did on the bmw's, I'm sure you will get to a million subs just like that. Your framework skills are what most of us know you for and appreciate. Keep them coming. ♥️🇿🇦
yes i follow him for the frame work and ofcourse the mclaren :D
You don’t need excuses when your doing repairs. You have the skills like nobody else. This is where your King and shine.
Hi my name is Dan I'm on my old ladys phone anyway that frame puller has been around about 1950s u look like you know your way around a car REMEMBER that tipe of puller can hart you put a blanket over the change if something brakes it will pull the change an clamp down not at you good luck
We rep 👉🇿🇦🤫, vTuned is Goated i seen how he assisted Goonsquad on that lamborghini urus 👌
I need one of those for my stuff it’s impressive
This is what I like. Back to basics repair. Also, for a young guy to be doing old school frame work this is pleasurable to see. Happy New Year and be safe
If anyone following you knows you are a framer. Really satisfying to watch your results. I enjoy this content and channel very much.
Best wishes V
I hope we see more video's like this. I like seeing you fix stuff. I would rather see a few video's that transform a basic people mover from crashed to cash. Everything doesn't need to be a high end sports car or ground up build.
nah vtuned moved past buckets we want more unobtainable rebuilds
I'm not a body person but that looks like potent little tool. Back in the '70's body shops mostly just had holes in the floor to tie a car down and pulled with a couple of posts and a Port-A-Power. Must have been much tougher back in the day. All that said, Your knowledge and skill is what makes the most difference.
We all know you are SUPER talented at framing so this was nice to see. You literally gave up more content than Goonzquad does. They spend way to much time talking and advertising Dang Sauce. Thanks Ben great video.
I know metal wants to return to its original shape but the care you used not to overstretch all your pulls which makes your replacement fit so much better. You truly are an artist.
my dad used a huge telephone pole buried beside the shop door. Not so much for frames but many many bumpers. Back then the bumpers were super heavy duty. he straightened a lot of them using the car in reverse and or in drive with chains to that pole. body work dollies made from train track too. When Ben said that his car looked like it had been hit by a train I laughed because that were words my dad would and DID say. I thought that this chinese machine would probably fail but NO ... pretty cool .
Your knowledge of frame pulling is outstanding!
It was about time you got yourself a frame machine and this one worked a lot better than you expected. It will be a valuable addition to your shop and it's easily stored when not in use.
Excellent frame machine I’m impressed kind regards to you and everyone out there Mark from the U.K. 🇬🇧
Wish I had this when I was rebuilding my badly damaged speed 3. I would have spent $1,800 on it for sure! Glad you took the time to review it. Seems like a handy body tool to have.
Ben, great, realistic content. You have a great channel man, keep it up.
You can always upgrade the power pack and ram if you feel that it's a little weak
Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful and blessed day.😇
Great video Ben, I love when you are making us discover new tools like this impressive little pulling machine! 👍
I was skeptical of the frame machine until I saw it in action, pretty impressive...
That's one snazzy job done there, also love how flexible that frame machine is to handle different angles of pulling ! As usual, thanx for sharing :)
That's an awesome demonstration of not only a nice new tool,but your skills.I hope you and all the viewers have a great New Year!
Ben from looking at the setup I believe the white belt wraps around the tower and then you hook up the chains to the pulling tools. I could be wrong but your way worked so awesome bro. Loving that new frame machine.
Actually, a nice frame machine that is portable and has power for not too much money. WIN-WIN all the way around.
Edit: The car sub frame looks good and just the side pillar and door jams need straightening out. You make it all look easy.
Cannot wait to see the Ferrari 599 updates either from your or Sam.
As an ex-auto body repairman in the 70s and 80s, you are doing a great job with this car, and where was that frame machine back then? It's a very cool rig!
It's fascinating to watch these tools make the life of the technician so much easier to work with crashed metal panels.
Two thumbs way up, sir!
Really enjoyed watching your technique Ben. I'm looking forward to seeing your progress on this project. There really isn't much structure to these unibody cars. Now I know why they rot out so fast up here in Central New York state where they use so much road salt in the winter.
Just a Suggestion.. when you're pulling using that bolt through the body panel.... you are bending the head of the bolt because you are attaching one end of the chain to it, putting all the force on one side... This will cause the bolt to fail much quicker than if you pull it straight by attaching the middle of the chain to it and then looping both ends of the chain around the pulling tower... this will pull the bolt evenly from two sides.. and there will be much less chance of snapping the head off the bolt and having everything come apart...
Dude! I’ve been enjoying
Mechanic jack team videos for the longest time watching them Repair frame damaged Nissans For quite some time now. Then all of a sudden I stumbled on this video watching you pull the frame on this Sentra. Man, I got to say, this is an awesome video! I definitely want to get this tool! Thank you for uploading this!
Badass video. I’ve never done frame work and I have always stayed away from frame damage cars. Dude made it look so easy
Love your videos and how the mustang is coming along, I admire your attention to detail, doing it right from the start and making it your way. I look forward to see the final prodct.
This frame-straightening process is quite interesting art....obviously, a lot of knowledge/practical experience is required to perform it well. 👍
Super impressed by this machine.. it did better then I expected for sure. Maybe it’s just the skills of the user.
Anytime you pull a frame straight I am glued to the video 👀 GOOD STUFF
I want that frame machine and I don't even do body work! It looks like a great machine to have around in the garage! A new toy!
I would enjoy seeing more videos with this machine...and your opinion about any shortfalls. Are there any modifications you suggest to make it more effective? Are there any other accessories (hooks, etc.) that you think are necessary?
I don't think this machine will do any worse than my old tree and come-a-long frame machine. My way works and I am sure that will work better than my way.
Ben, Here in Brazil we also have this same type of machine, and they work well. You just have to pay attention to the materials. The tempering of clamps and accessories must be ideal. It was a great investment.
Always nice to see Ben working his magic on a badly damaged frame. Nice frame machine, perfect for the small shop or garage.
When I saw the 5 ton sticker on the machine,I had my doubts. For this job,it seemed more than adeguate. Thanks for sharing.
The only thing that worries me about that frame machine is that it only clamps to the sill on only one side, would have been better clamping onto the sill on both sides.
The car definitely needs supporting level on both sides otherwise it could be permanently twisted if the new rocker is welded in with one side of car dangling down Lol.
Been watching V tuned since the hellcat never disappoints also it helps a lot of you ever want to give it a try you get good tips on the tools and what procedures keep it bro you got all the potential
I give you all the respect it's amazing to see you doing all the work by yourself keep up the good work
Hey Ben. You have given me just what i was looking for, confidence in doing my first job! Thanks. You the man!
Very impressed. You do more with less than others. Imagine buying an expensive machine but not knowing how to use it!!
Now this was worth every penny 👌🏽 and you save alot of room for your shop
Well I'm impressed! You don't hesitate to start slicing and dicing a vehicle. You definately have a gift. Thanks Tennessee.
Hey keep on doing these videos. You just inspired something I forgot about learning almost 20 yrs ago
Seems like Vevor makes a lot of things, we bought a Vevor egg peeler that removes the shell from eggs, seems far away from a frame machine
Nice job Ben, your work ethic is beyond reproach.
Ben that was awesome watching you pull the door frame out with your new frame puller. Thanks for sharing your video and looking forward to see meny new builds in the new year. Peace bro.
Ben you make everything look so easy great work
That would save me alot on the small pulls wouldn't have to take everything to frame shop, bet it would work really well on polaris side by side repairs
It looks great, but I think it needs an extension, that reaches to the other side and with two more clamp would hold the car much better.
Thought I wasn't going to notice the new scene transitions? I love seeing the improvement on the presentation!
You are making this look so easy, my friend. While I agree, this machine is a beast. I am amazed by the talent you possess. 👍
I dunno what it is that's so satisfying about watching a frame get straightened out
It's because it is being made 'right', 'true' and 'straight'.
That a freaking wicked frame machine, awesome stuff mate 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘Cheers from Melbourne Australia

Ben Fix your ref link. You showed us a great affordable tool. It's only right that Vevor knows that you are sending customers their way.
Where did u purchase frame machine?
broken link
@@beeski_on_30sfinally77 fixed the link
Dam Ben you killing it with all these uploads let's keep it going 👏
I was watching to see when your cheap frame puller metal would shatter and fly through your mclaren, but actually watching you use that, it is pretty damn impressive. I'm used to the standard like your dad has or the goozquad even, but as you said, amazing for something that can store in the corner of your garage and still pull a large car.
Nissan Boron UHSS is some strong stuff and no fun to drill, but the vevor puller did a great job pulling it!
Good job Ben. Nice content. Im excited to see your projects being done one by one, the vstang, s2k , nissan flips, Vrarri, and other. Kudos to you and your family
here goes the scammers post
This is the best video up to date. With minimum of tools you accomplished a miracle here.
Lakeside Autobody has a similar machine and uses it frequently on his channel. He does amazing work with it.
pretty nice little machine! compact is what i like about it and still seems to work great
awesome video. it's very educational to see everything you do in detail.
Watching your videos makes me believe that I could do my own project car. That frame machine seems perfect for anyone and price point is perfect
Impressive machine in the right hands...
Happy New Year. All the best for 2023 from Queensland Australia.
Love how you cover in 1 video what the goonzquad would do in 10 parts video
That thing would be a monster if it had an additional clamp rail so you could clamp the car on both pinch welds....great idea for small pulls in a small shop.
Great find Ben! You’ve found a workable solution for the Nissan and I dare say anything else you want to fix. Take care and Happy New Years. See you in the next installment.
Your skills are top tier man! Love all your content but especially the regular frame work
Wow….that frame machine is impressive! Great asset to your shop!
This is very ideal and well thought especially with space limits in your shop
What a hard-working man. Keep up the good job. Love what you’re doing!!
Looks like you found a pretty good little rack machine there Ben! Happy New Years to you and your family! 🥳🎉🎆
Like to see how this works with a real steel frame such as a truck frame. Very interested in seeing that put to the test
Pickup truck frames aren't hard to pull or push. They're easier than doing a mangled unibody but many shops just grab a straight frame off a salvage truck or SUV because cab and body swaps are quick and easy.
We did lots of pickups and SUVs where I used to work (building one out of several from Copart and salvage) and if doing one for yourself it's a nice way to swap a 1500 cab onto a 2500 or 3500 frame and running gear. My F100 is an F350 underneath, my C-20 rocks C-30 dually running gear and my six banger K1500 2WD has a LS 5.3 4x4 frame and running gear. There's no law saying ya can't upgrade your drivetrain and suspension and the lower tax hit makes me smile. Wreckers often go through two or more cabs before getting scrapped.
You really know you're stuff a pleasure to watch you buy a frame michene and show us it work, new sub god bless you and your knowledge
Loving the idea to buy a parts car the same colour. It's what I used to do and it really helped speed things up.
Very high skills according to your age!!! RESPECT!!!
I got to say I wasn't impressed with this frame puller sitting in pieces on the floor but it was more than capable of doing this job. Seems to be the right tool for your shop as it can be dismantled and put away without taking up much space. Seems to be just what you needed, good job. Now complete a few of those Nissans and get them sold or put to use!
I don't know from who you studied to pulling likse this, i just love watching your job and videos, it is so satisfying, even it is doesn't matter the build what car it would be, it could be like this sh**t car, but I just love to watch your work. Wish I was near to you, to helping you in my free time just for nothing.
Holy geez!!!! What a nice frame machine. I will be checking out the link. Thank you so much for being this to my attention. I hope you get a kick back from sales. Great video.
Can I suggest looping a second chain or blanket around the chain under tension. If the bolt or clamp breaks loose it absorbs the energy and prevents bolts or clamps flying past your head!
If he had to, vTuned could straighten just about anything using only a hammer. He's that talented!
Innovation is the mother of invention! Congratulations on being so innovative.👍Very cool Frame puller
"Be nice to wash our hands in there" LOL !!!!!!
Very helpful, thanks for the video, looking forward to a reasonable priced frame machine.
As an insurance adjuster, I will say that we’ve been instructed to replace the whole door for damage like this. Anytime a dent is deep enough to even be suspected of affecting the intrusion beam, my company wants us to replace. The only time we do a pull, is on structural components like the rails/rear body or quarter. but in this video they’re pulling the uniside so that makes sense.
How much would it cost to replace the door?
With your experience with frame machines, you’ve probably got a good head start with using these cheap Chinese units.
Dear Sir !! ............What A Fantastic Vlog !! .............. GodBless You & A Happy New Year !! ................. Peace
That's a nice little tower puller. Gets the job done.
I use a Car o Liner MK5 with twin towers at my shop.
It's a copy of a design so ancient the patents are long expired. They work fine and can be used with accessories from many fanufacturers. Good video!
I live in Knoxville and need some Sentra parts. My gf wrecked her’s Monday in the snow. Let me know if you’re selling a front bumper and passenger headlight
That machine work very well easy pulling happy New Year everyone be safe peace
Great work as always....finally i see this framemachine in action i been eyeing one of this but wanted to see how it performed specifically from someone like you that know what they doing thanks
Ben enjoy your work you can see you really know how these cars are built great video
Brilliant work, thanks for sharing.
Hey there. Nice job, nice tool. Was wondering why pull it out if you are going to be replacing the lower beam anyways? Was it mostly to demonstrate the tool?
Outstanding item repair starting with new equipment. Your the man Ben. Don’t let Yuri know
Bro, I have to give it to you, you are the true MVP, frame machines in general are dangerous, and I would never trust a frame machine from vevor, after seeing the reputation on how they weld their equipment.
