Steve use a crack bar for the castle nut not a ratchet the ratchets can give way and it will hurt you or fly up and dent the car
If you are pushing down unlikely it will fly up and hit the car 😂😂
No obviously didn’t read right if your pushing down and it snaps or slips the socket end will fly up also the landless will go down with hands underneath you obviously don’t use tools or you would know this
Well done Steve. "Its a learning Situation"...
Well diagnosed! Congratulations on getting that sorted
Thank you.
We allways renew the hub, knuckle and bearing after a wheel impact like it had for safety reasons, seen knuckles snap long after repair due to unseen cracks in the casting.
Tip for getting the bottom ball joints out - Use a long bar to lever the arm down with one end under the subframe. If it’s really seized in there you can open the bottom of the knuckle up slightly with a large Wide chisel. It wants to be large otherwise you’ll bottom the chisel out on ball joint first before it has a chance to open up the knuckle a bit. I hope that makes sense. I’m not a fan of ball joint splitters it’s easy to damage the rubber boot.
Thanks. Iv tried the methods you mention. I also haven't bought a splitter for same reason you stated.
Had issues myself with a bent hub. My pug 206 got hit by an hgv that pulled out of a junction without looking. I was in the turn box waiting to turn into the road he was on. Anyhow the damage caused my the impact apart from a dented wing appears to be the front shock/strut so had it replaced. The wheel alignment was improved but still was not right. Closer inspection revealed bent hub assembly. The actual impact was not hard by any means so we were surprised by the hub damage. As you say it's all a learning curve.
ATB Steve
The full strut/shock was changed first. That's when they realised the hub issue. All work done by local garage.
Blimey Steve another problem ticked off well done 👏🏻
Cheers
Your a very intelligent gent. Awesome videos with a wealth of knowledge 👍
Thanks. No one has ever called me intelligent😂
An enjoyable episode 😁.. well worth the watch.
Once you get the new suspension on you can get your geometry setup for the track and corner weights done. The road geometry is not likely to be ideal for track use. Likely this will improve your handling and don't forget about your tyres and pressures. Also you can consider nitrogen in the tyres as the pressure will change less as the tyres are heated
car looks unreal with that bumper spliter combo steve 👌🏻
Thanks I do like it myself. 👌
Great work, not an easy thing to find.
I'd have got a new hub/bearing to fit with that replacement hub carrier though.
Great stuff and bloody useful to know! Get a scissor splitter it's the only one you'll ever need, about £20 for a laser one from Halfords!
Thanks. I definatly need one. When I first got the car it took me an hour to get it out as it was probably on from new.
Great find and fix Steve glad you got it sorted 🤓👌
Thanks.
Nice spot Steve well done and good talk through you are the modern day Haynes manual 👍
Haha thanks I'm glad you liked the vid 👍
Recently subbed, really enjoying your video mate! Hunter as mentioned is definitely the way to go, I've had it done loads of times over the years on past cars but my advice is to ensure the place your taking it to know how to do it properly - the last time I had it done last year on my MK3 Focus, I took it into a place nearby that I hadn't been to before and which had not long had a Hunter system installed, it basically it took them three times to during the session to get it right and one thing that stood out was that they were going by the computer readings before the car was fully in the air and making adjustment across the board - initially they insisted it would be OK but soon became evident during the test drives that it was not as the steering wheel was still off centre to the left & then to the right during the second. The third attempt I then insisted to get all of the readings in the green and as close to 0 as possible, to which paid off but took them a lot longer to do because they messed with the front majorly... all it needed from the very start was the N/S rear camper bolt adjusting going by the first reading with how in the red it was. I've never had this in the past with the other places I usually go, always was spot on the first time.
Nice one steve problem solved keep the videos coming👍
Nice one mate! Look forward to the GFB+ install.
Thanks.
Great video Steve,I think you can forgive yourself for bypassing that bent hub,not easy to pickup, with all the other work you've done as well, you've done an amazing job 😀
Thanks shaun appreciate that
Good stuff Steve glad it’s all sorted buddy
Thank you Wray
nice find steve, shud be much better now on the track :)
Thanks
Well done Steve another great job bud
Hopefully getting my st in the next few months
Going to start, from the start and do mine as well step by step just like you
But thanks to u buddy I'll be able to do alot of it myself
Cheers Steve
Great to see you back mate
Keep up the good work and Education for us petrol heads👍👏👌
Hope it goes well for you thanks for watching and commenting.
These cars are so easy to work on. And obviously watching Steve helps give you an idea of how it’s done 👍🏻
Love your videos mate, also loving my new fiesta st.
Great video mate glad you found the issue 👌
Thank you.
spot on steve, done it again mate!
Such a good video Steve, so interesting and useful too 👍
Thank you.
Got a gfb+ sitting waiting for me to fit 👍 ill be following
Hey Steve good video good job finding it
Thanks. 👍
Love your vids Steve, top bloke!
Your video made me want to listen to the song some cut by trillville. I've heard those slider pins are a bugger on the STs. I've got to tackle my front right.
Great fix Steve 👍
Thanks.
Lovely Jubbly! Literally just did the same on mine!
👌 Thanks.
Glad you got camber sorted but I have a question for you do you know if the drive shaft seals are both the same as in diameter and part number thanks :)
I'm not sure to be honest. Iv never changed them thanks for watching.
Fancy helping me fit my diff in my vxr steve :)
Haha. Sorry I'd probably mess it up.
Good job Steve
Thanks.
Good news that the problems sorted
What coilovers have you decided to go with
I think I'm going to keep them as a surprise for the video but their race spec 2 ways with remote resovoir and no one in the UK at least is running them so I'm the first.
Absorbed the video 😃
thanks.
That was lucky not meany people would of spotted this. but you looked really fast on track car went really nice
Thanks. Yeh it went really well but tyres felt shocking. I felt like bamby on ice. 😂
Spark Plug Steve what are you running on it I was going to say hello but every time I spotted you you was talking or driving or filming but love the car looking really nice and can’t wait to see it again and at a different stage
Hi Steven I’ve just done and inner hub and outter housing in a 16 plate st line fiesta parts from ford trader over £520 not a cheap job
Ouch. Used this was £35. Its easy to see why they write off a car when you add up new parts.
Spark Plug Steve they make us use main dealer only part to. But got to pay the bills lol
A crack bar
You're gonna get wear on the inside of your tyres with that negative camber
Once my new suspension turns up I will be running 3+ degrees so. 😳
I’ve been waiting on you doing the gfb mate. I’ve done it twice now. Be interesting to see how you find it.
Hub , had exactly the same issue on vw up after a pot hole smash, new hub bearing, new disc same issue, hub was bent and cracked
Hiya Steve! Shared a track session with you yesterday at Pure Ford on the Welsh Ford session. My first ever track session haha. What lads would you recommend for the Fiesta to use on road and track? DS2500 I was looking at?
Hi Tom what car were you driving.? I have the ds2500 pads. But get the best fluid you can afford. I'm using carbon Lorraine fluid. Ate 200 is good too.
@@Sparkplugsteve I was in a red Fiesta ST :) like I said first time out so was getting used to it but I loved it none the less! Yeah I'm going to order some fluid aswell this week.. The Pagid pads I currently have were just not up to it at all. Can't wait to get out more often now though! :) cheers Steve 👌
Did I pass you on start straight? I remeber a red fiesta there. What power are you running?
@@Sparkplugsteve I think you may have... Or it may have been just after Quarry.. I can't quite remember. I'm Peron 1+ atm :)
Yo Steve how is that worx half inch impact? is it good enoughf to remove wheel nuts/studs ? seen you use it on the hub nut seems fine...
great vid The she could start calling you Mr Fiesta :)
It's not bad but there's more powerful ones available really. It wouldn't crack it lose or fully tighten. Most big bolts or nuts I slacken with a wrench off camera.
Ta for that.. got some other worx 20v gear... just did`nt fancy spending 200 squid on a milwhachkee.. or what eva you call em...
@@Sparkplugsteve
Take it you didnt check for run out with a dti when you originally fitted the new discs?
I never changed dics until time of this video. I don't have a dti but did visual inspect as shown in the vid.
I didnt now you lived in the cynon vally i saw u today in pontypridd driveing passed witherspoons
Yeh that was me.
Nice car mate u got now anyone with cheap exhaust for my mk6 1.2 festa
Thanks and sorry no I don't.
Was you at pure ford? Because I remember seeing one car with the SPS on the number plate
Yes that was me.
How did the hub get so badly bent? Did that side get whacked or was it just some collateral damage from maybe the previous owner swerving to try to miss the accident hitting the curb on that side and still crashing
take a look at part 2 of the yobbo playlist and i explain what was involved in this crash. there was no contact with another car. this one was launched over a pavement in sainsburys car park.
@@Sparkplugsteve I'll go back I must have missed it!
Super 👍
Thanks.
Hey Steve, Could you chat about how much more insurance is for CAT S vehicles (as a % if that's better for you). Cheers.
I transferred from my old daily fiesta st and it didn't cost any extra.
@@Sparkplugsteve Oh nice. I head written off cars were harder to insure.
Love the videos by the way.
bollocks, it makes no difference bud.
@@joneseyce
I've been told these are bad on hubs failing
I'm on my 3rd fiesta and never heard of them having premature failures.
@@Sparkplugsteve it was mentioned to me by a mechanic last week. I can hear rumble thought it maybe a bearing but not sure yet. Maybe your car took a hit on the wheel hubs bend easy nowadays. Amount of salvage ive had with bent hubs is unreal
If anyone’s car ever needs replacement parts would you consider doing it for the channel??? Obviously if you were paid
I would not to be honest. I don't want the responsibility that comes with fixing others cars. I'm not a proffesional so wouldn't want something to go wrong.
Spark Plug Steve fair enough I just thought it might be useful for the content as it gives extra variety of vehicles.
If Steve or any other RUclips mechanic started doing that I would suggest they take out public liability insurance first. It only takes one dissatisfied person to sue and potentially ruin a reputation.
Namnodnol it’s like that at any car garage, people are arseholes.
No 1/2" Breaker Bar Steve? Your uck up ratchet with a Tube on it!
Na iv been doing it for 6 yrs with that wrench. I should buy one though.
Not bad going then lol! What make is the ratchet?
Now you've said done it for years we will hear a load of swearing on your next video when the ratchet gives up the ghost and cracks your hand lol!!
It's just a halfords one. No doubt Il break it now. Haha.
@@Sparkplugsteve Lol...if we see the Video's removed....we will know it's gone ping and you've gone for a warranty claim in your closest store!
What’s the song name @7:00
Nexus riddim I think. Its a free song from RUclips library.
Let me know how to get your adress without it showing to publicly I’ll send you one
Send me what?
A crack bar
Raining AGAIN 😂😂
It makes me feel at home.😂
Spark Plug Steve I was in wales today, Elan valley, devils bridge... guess what? Raining 😂
