Not only is it nice that you're teaching your kids great skills, but it's even better that they asked "Can I do it?" That shows initiative, and it's awesome to see your Cubs doing that. I'm sure all of us watching know how it's done, but watching them help in the process as well as learning the tools is great, and a tool review to boot is icing on top. 👍
Me too! Especially if they plan on driving in the future. If you can’t work on it (at least basic safety and maintenance) then I don’t believe you should be allowed to drive it.
Ryan I don’t know about that. I also do my own maintenance but it’s also expensive doing an occasional fix when i fee like I own enough tools to make a nascar mechanic jealous. That’s why I hate to watch all these tool channels. I am Kidding though, I agree with u. But sometimes I don laugh wondering if I save any money. My garage is full of everything and I fix everything.
Got the long reach so it could more easily fit under my lowered Mustang while still being able to lift my 96 Bronco higher than any of their other jacks. Complete lifesaver compared to what I had been using.
Great unboxing and demo of the daytona long reach low profile jack in action. I also enjoy how you patiently taught the cubs how to fix the flat. It's so easy to just say, this is taking forever, and just knock it out in a few minutes, but the life lesson is priceless. As the cubs get older, their "curiosity" seems to wain at times. but the cubs are at the right age to absorb these lessons and build some great memories with Dad. Thanks for sharing!
I bought a couple of hockey pucks for mine and cut a v groove down the middle. That way it could sit nicely in the pinch welds of the car and not damage them while jacking it up. one funny thing about the hockey pucks as when I pull up the Jack sometimes I realize I don't see the hockey pocket stuck to the car. LOL
they have torque sticks rated at different ft lbs for impacts. I got a set and I used it on my car all for wheels. I went with the smallest one. I did hand thread the bolts first then low torque them with impacted.. when the car was on ground when with the correct torque value and did that. They stop turning the bolt when it hits the torque value.
When working with the cubs, it's nice to teach (and model) how to do things safely. You know, such as not wearing open-toed shoes when working with heavy items that might be dropped on your foot.
I have this exact jack in the same color and I absolutely love it. I love it for jacking up my modified cars as it can reach right under to the center jacking points, instead of the stupid pinch welds. With the crazy max height, it worked great on my brother-in-laws lifted truck too.
You know that I got to tell you it's great to see your children helping you and learning how to repair a flat. You know that when they get a flat they'll thank you for showing them what to do !!!!!
Please use some jack stands, especially with kids next to/under the wheel wells. "Pro tip, don't ever use an impact to tighten the bolts alright... You could break a lug nut"... Don't ever use an impact to tighten the NUTS... You could break a WHEEL STUD. Also, always use a torque wrench. I understand if you are on the side of the highway. If you are at home or at a friends house use a torque wrench! Thanks for making a review on the rack. Love the jack, just bought one.
I have the same identical one and I love it.i chose this one over the yellow Daytona that costs like $220..this one raises higher and gets real low under the car..
I liked how you are teaching the cubs how to fix a flat tire. You were plugging the tire not patching it. One little trick is to have air in the tire before putting in the plug. Just my input of working on cars for many of years
I make aircraft jacks (anywhere from 3-250 ton) it is very important to bleed out the air for more reasons than just getting the full stroke Maybe its less important on a car jack but air in the lines causes all sorts of issues
Good to see you teaching the boys how to change a tire. I know some men who don't even know where the Jack is in their vehicle. Thank you for the video.
Awesome video! Great review of this jack. My wife historically gets flats taking "short cuts" in not the best areas here in South Jersey. My GM OEM trailer TPMS picked up high temperature on my travel trailer's right rear tire last year. I found a screw that fortunately did not penetrate the tire. Amazing how the screw's road contact heated up that tire quickly. Loved seeing the kids learning vehicle maintenance.
Actually using the plug like that is just a temporary fix. It's a good way to have tire separation. The best way to fix that tire is to take it down and put a patch inside.🎚️🇱🇷🦖🚙
I noticed on mine, the black bar that goes along the saddle arm , one of them wiggles a little, the other one is a bit tighter. Also looks like the one that wiggles doesn’t have that brown grease over it. I sprayed it with some white lithium grease
I was having trouble with my Pittsburgh 1.5 ton jack, I almost went to get this jack. I needed more height for my car, and had a hard time getting my car off jacks. Maybe I will invest in this one just not crazy they are steel but can't have everything
A great lesson to teach the young ones how to. So many kids and teens today would have no clue what to do if they had to do it. They would just get on their app. And wait for road side assistance to fix it.
Have you tried the cross bar for this jack ? ti lifts the whole end of the car . do you ever test 2 post car lifts ? I would like to see a rating on them as I am getting ready to buy one
1) clear the pebbles away from the jack rollers so it can walk freely under the vehicle as you raise it. 2) Use frame blocks to prevent rolling over the thing vertical seam a the jack points 3) Don't let the kids work on anything with open toed sandals 4) lower the car onto a jackstand as a safety. 5) ALWAYS use a torque wrench for the lug nuts
Good job. One of the first things I tried to my son was how to change a tire. Since he was the one who most likely to be out with mom he would need to be the Man and help change the tire. I made sure wife knew how when we were dating. That helped keep him focused, your boys seemed much more interested. They're not always going to have those nice power tools.
Clearly a paid hit if you ask me. I think you had someone flatten that tire while you were off somewhere else establishing an alibi. Probably shopping for that very same jack. Yeah, you took out a contract on that tire, no doubt about it.
I've never used a torque wrench putting on a tire and never lost a lug nut yet (in over 50 years of driving) and on a 5 bolt was taught to put them back on in a "star" pattern and then snug and then actually tighten them up. guess it all depends on how you learned it. Agree with the "get a pair of shoes"... i like my feet and my steel toes. :)
Why not get the Quinn digital torture wrench adapter from Harbor freight the are surprisingly accurate and fit on you 1/2 inch breaker bar and are about $30 had mine compared to the torque wrench at my local tire shop
you plugged the tire, not patch :) Good job though.. I've done this many times. I prefer the all metal tools rather than those with a plastic handle. I found a set on Amazon that's nice.
While my regular gray 3 ton Pittsburgh jack works fine for most things but I've been considering a Daytona long low jack for a while now. I think I'll pull the trigger this weekend. Also, have you reviewed the Quinn digital torque wrenches yet? If not, this would've been the perfect time for the 1/2" unit. I have both the 3/8" and 1/2". They're awesome!
I finally caved and bought the 3 ton low profile Daytona, I got it specifically got it for working on my moms car because it sits so low to the ground and my old one broke
My issue with those harbor freight patch kits, is that it only had about enough glue for a couple of those patches. That, and the tools bend when you put them in the tire. LOL
I don't like changing tires anymore without a jackstand. Had a car fall off a jack without a tire once. (That was also why I don't use scissor jacks anymore)
I need to get that Jack. Does it lift higher than the top of the line Daytona? Fyi you don't need to leave the car/SUV on the ground to break the lug nuts. If you are using a impact.
I just got mine today. Only down side is super heavy. Will be a hassle when needing to change the oil every 3 years. Recommend 2 people to not hurt yourself
I am looking for a low profile floor jack but I don’t want a 100lbs model as they are challenging to move around. I am not a professional but I do use this a couple times a year. Any suggestions? An aluminum model maybe?
Bear, would you recommend this jack over the daytona super duty? The harbor freight by me are sell these low profile long reach for 170$ the super duty tend to stay at 230$
Awesome job teaching the kids how to do necessities! Even though I can gauge it close myself, personally i choose to use torque wrench especially for my fwd or awd cars to the suggested precise torque to prevent immature hub wear and bearing damage. Take it to any "professional" shop and witness the "unprofessional" air gun tightening and bye bye your hub bearings in 5-10K miles
One time I had a small piece of sheet metal in the tire and the tire was real old and bald it could not be patched I waited until the tire deflated then I used liquid crazy glue around the metal to seal it long enough to go get a new set of tires. Worked great not a long term fix by a long shot Crazy glue's Achilles heal is heat. It breaks down fast under heat. So it was back roads only.
I've looked at those jacks from time to time. I have a 3 ton jack that has iron wheels and is a little taller than this one so I have to take steps sometimes to get it under where I need it. Also, when working with things as heavy as wheel and tire assemblies, real shoes might be a good idea rather than crocs or slippers. :o)
It is good the kids are learning the basics. My daughter is 13 and does brakes and oil changes. I'd just stop giving bad or wrong info to the public. First you had a small child hand tightening. He should give it a very slight torque. He isn't as strong as you. If the wheel had a lip on the back and he didn't get it flush and you put the vehicles weight sets in the position. The your only tightening it like that. Easy accident or broken lugs. Your one hand pro home mechanic technique wasn't a good example for them either. Like how it didn't work for you. Just do it right. So your fast and efficient. I worked for gm as a Chevrolet and Cadillac dealership tech for 8 years. Now I'm at a high performance shop for the past 3 years. I guess having a degree and experience in automotive made me anal on what others do. Keep up the good work.
1. I'd use a piece of 2 x 4 for the uni-body on the Jeep. 2. Ya. use a torque wrench. #100 is enough. 3. I was wondering about the patch kit.I use to use a more expensive set up like that working in my dad's garage.
I'm glad you teach the kids how to change a tire . So many snowflakes nowadays have no idea how to do it . I guess kids nowadays aren't gear heads like when I was a kid growing up with muscle cars everywhere . Remember Nickey Chevrolet in Chicago ? And Mr,.Norm's Dodge ? My old man was a mechanic for Chevrolet . I learned to solder leaking radiators , do clutches , brakes , setting solid litters , u joints, rebuild Harley Davidson transmissions , etc.....Now people can't even change wiper blades . 2 high school professor friends of mine couldn't get their motorcycles to start ... I got them running . What was wrong ? Both were out of gas . Brain surgeons eh ? And they talk down to me because I don't have a diploma . Screw that . Teamsters paid me well . God Bless Jimmy Hoffa for my pension checks . . Who's the real dummy who can't check his gas level ? 🤣😂🤣😂

Kidding though, I agree with u. But sometimes I don laugh wondering if I save any money. My garage is full of everything and I fix everything.
@@donotrobme9295 right. and sometimes your garage is so full of tools, you can't even find anything. so you end up buying it again. lol
I thought loosening the lugnuts prior to lifting the car was only done when using hand tools lol i stopped doing that when i got power tools
Might be true but habits die hard.
that is correct. seen cars fall off before when people used breaker cars to loosen while the car was lifted
Got the long reach so it could more easily fit under my lowered Mustang while still being able to lift my 96 Bronco higher than any of their other jacks. Complete lifesaver compared to what I had been using.
Great unboxing and demo of the daytona long reach low profile jack in action. I also enjoy how you patiently taught the cubs how to fix the flat. It's so easy to just say, this is taking forever, and just knock it out in a few minutes, but the life lesson is priceless. As the cubs get older, their "curiosity" seems to wain at times. but the cubs are at the right age to absorb these lessons and build some great memories with Dad. Thanks for sharing!
I bought a couple of hockey pucks for mine and cut a v groove down the middle. That way it could sit nicely in the pinch welds of the car and not damage them while jacking it up. one funny thing about the hockey pucks as when I pull up the Jack sometimes I realize I don't see the hockey pocket stuck to the car.

I just bought this Jack that you're talking about here from harbor freight last week only I got it in my favorite color blue.
I really love that you're teaching the kids how to change a tire the right way. Bonus points for no ugga-duggas on tightening the bolts.
Grand Slam! Taught your kids and grown adults multiple leasons all at once. So much in such a short vid. Great Job 👏
You know that I got to tell you it's great to see your children helping you and learning how to repair a flat. You know that when they get a flat they'll thank you for showing them what to do !!!!!
Have same green one and will be using it today. Perfect timing for video. I had to purge mine and add oil but it lifts smooth, fast and high.
Nice! Good to see the young ones learning early.
Please use some jack stands, especially with kids next to/under the wheel wells. "Pro tip, don't ever use an impact to tighten the bolts alright... You could break a lug nut"... Don't ever use an impact to tighten the NUTS... You could break a WHEEL STUD. Also, always use a torque wrench. I understand if you are on the side of the highway.

Thanks for making a review on the rack. Love the jack, just bought one.
Good to see bear cubs learning and working.
I just got mine in the purple metallic color. I’m in absolute love with the color!
I have the same identical one and I love it.i chose this one over the yellow Daytona that costs like $220..this one raises higher and gets real low under the car..
Love the family time bonding

Might get the rapid pump this weekend in that green love that green💯
bought the yellow daytona to go under my low-slung 99 miata & lowered 98 formula firebird & i love it! great jack!

I just got a new to me 2007 sierra 1500 and was looking at the jacks yesterday.
I like the green color jack. You gotta teach that bear cub how to use a four point wrench first so he can truly appreciate a torque wrench 😆
You are teaching the young cub well!
Had a GF that would pick up nails and screws with her Civic. One tire had 5 of these in it. So, yep, they work.
that's the best story. I'm gonna get some of these and keep em for emergencies
@@asm42 you're gonna get some GF's? 🤔
Actually using the plug like that is just a temporary fix. It's a good way to have tire separation. The best way to fix that tire is to take it down and put a patch inside.🎚️🇱🇷🦖🚙
Nice job, these kids already know more about the care and upkeep of a car than 99% of the young drivers today. It should be taught in schools.
Patch many tires while still on the vehicle and still mostly inflated.
I noticed on mine, the black bar that goes along the saddle arm , one of them wiggles a little, the other one is a bit tighter. Also looks like the one that wiggles doesn’t have that brown grease over it. I sprayed it with some white lithium grease
I love seeing those cubs being taught the right way to do this
That color is my favorite, My US general tool boxes are that color.
That's the one I wanted, might sell my low profile and get the long reach.
Love the videos. Keep them coming. Greetings from Los Angeles California
Good video for the cubs to learn how to change and repair a tire

Under rated channel!! You are awesome brother bear!
Nice to see you closing in on a well-deserved 100,000 subs 👍🏽
Love seeing the kids involved, teach them young 👍😁
Reminds me of when my Dad showed me how to change a tire with hand tools ........ nice video dude
Gotta get you one of those nice tire inflators with in line gauge. Way more convenient.
Really!!!!! Teaching the children to change a tire with slides on very wise.
Just seen these yesterday floor models on sale goin back to get 1 now
Any opinion on the Torque Limiting Extension Bar Set from Harbor Freight when tightening the bolts on a tire?
Works great on actual air guns... Not good on electric or high BPM devices.
Got one and I Lo e it. Got low profile and high profile cars and trucks. Works great. I think I am going to get another one.
Have you tried the cross bar for this jack ? ti lifts the whole end of the car . do you ever test 2 post car lifts ? I would like to see a rating on them as I am getting ready to buy one
It’s very important for fathers to be there for their sons. ❤️
You can use an impact to put lug nuts on as long as you start them by hand first and dont go past two ugga duggas
Ah, Another SMA fan.
@@catmanzrt how big and nasty are you? Eric o is the man lol. I thought that was etcg tho could be wrong.

Anything else
@@matthewlawson5634 I hope they wiped wheel lugs because they fell into sand. Not good for threading if they did not.
I'm surprised with all the tools you own you don't have a digital tire gauge good to see you teaching the Cubs how to change a tire

Yeah he didn’t have any screws that matched that one because he lost them in a boating accident after the one got misplaced! 😎
Good vid dude! Gotta teach em! Is that jack still holding up? Been looking to get one
I got the same in Orange. Love it!

Would you go with the low pro long reach or the super duty?
Um... I did go with the long reach, lol. But I had a specific need for the extra height.
@@denoftools probably what I’ll go with. I need the extra height for my truck plus easier to get under the car.
My issue with those harbor freight patch kits, is that it only had about enough glue for a couple of those patches. That, and the tools bend when you put them in the tire. LOL
I never once used the glue/rubber cement and the plugs still work
@@danh2134 I haven't used it for some either, however the glue does act as a lubricant to make it easier to push the patch him.
I don't like changing tires anymore without a jackstand. Had a car fall off a jack without a tire once. (That was also why I don't use scissor jacks anymore)
Pro tip: paint the handle white before you try to use it in Vegas!
I have the exact same jack. Love 💘 it.
I have a bunch of them screws very mean buggers
I need to get that Jack. Does it lift higher than the top of the line Daytona? Fyi you don't need to leave the car/SUV on the ground to break the lug nuts. If you are using a impact.
force of habit
Let's make this tire great again.
I just got mine today. Only down side is super heavy. Will be a hassle when needing to change the oil every 3 years. Recommend 2 people to not hurt yourself

Aluminum "racing" jacks and there is now a 2 ton jack that is half the weight of this one.
I got one of those(orange) earlier this year.
Bear, would you recommend this jack over the daytona super duty? The harbor freight by me are sell these low profile long reach for 170$ the super duty tend to stay at 230$
I thought of Randy Savage when you showed the plug.
Awesome job teaching the kids how to do necessities! Even though I can gauge it close myself, personally i choose to use torque wrench especially for my fwd or awd cars to the suggested precise torque to prevent immature hub wear and bearing damage.

Unless they're tightening axle bearing nuts rather than lug nuts, or shouldn't cause premature wear and damage.

I got tired of using a torque wrench and invested in a decent set of torque sticks, haven't looked back.
That's a tire plug, not a patch but seems like a nice jack especially for the price
