I get surprised whenever Dan's facial hair gets shaved then reappears like magic in another episode. Where can i get equip-able facial hair, Dan? Don't be telling me it's Dollar Shave Club.
As a guy with an LS swapped E36 M3 it’s bad ass seeing you guys go through this process. I laughed when you said I don’t know how anyone does RTABs by themselves. Fire... fire and drilling 👌
Find any catfish Camaro, if it has an engine only and no trans, you’ll pay close to $600-800. Depends on location. Here in Michigan I’ve found a few Camaros that don’t run but still have an engine in them for about that price
Thank you for showing all the frustrating parts that inevitably show up when working on cars. All "car shows" I grew up watching on Saturday morning would just cut from a product plug on the workbench to the final clicks on the rachet. Working on cars is almost always a battle of will against siezed bolts and frustration.
I just have to say Monday to Friday I wake up before 8am to watch hoonigan and go back to sleep after. Literally if I get asked what do you wake up for the only answer is Hoonigan. Love you guys
This is my favorite segment from Hoonigan! Dan is like the "other" me if I had no kids and the budget of Ken Block. It took me five years to complete my E30.
dan the man with the master plan, every video gets better and better. i cant afford any of this but i love learning all about this stuff, thank you hoonigans!!!
Would of personally done the reinforcement plates for the subframe and trailing arms while it was all out. Only gonna cause issues down the line! Done it on mine and it’s solid with all the power flex bushes
i love all the crazy baddassery on this channel. but seeing a more serious build series like this is so cool. i love that i can see both types of content on the same channel. fun crazy hooning and legit building from knowlegable people. ill be a hoonigan channel fan for life.
the amount of videos you guys are pumping out is awesome. I've never really been into the building part of cars but i really enjoy watching all the builds you have done. now i wait for a update on vinnys car and see if he actually gets done before scotto.
My first car was an 02 Chevy Cavalier Coupe slammed down to about an 1" to 1.5" on tien coil-overs! Drove it daily in TN, made driving REALLY engaging! LOL Beached it on speed bumps, scrapped on driveways and 3 wheeled it going up the steep af driveway to my town house.... Practical? NO. Fun? Hell Yes! Oh and no engine mods, just a B&M short shifter and a beck arnley clutch with an AEM intake... lol
steve o can't handle being yelled at? Here's a way to avoid that, ask questions and don't do dumb shit. Hope it helps and your feelings didn't get hurt.
OGskunkMASTA I can handle being yelled at but it seems the Hoonigans guys are setting different tones for different vids IE build biology and such. Maybe you should've picked that up, kid.
Can't wait for the next episode. This project is turning out great so far. Because of this series I know now how much of a pain replacing bushings can be haha 😂
I've dropped and redone both subframes on my E46 with nothing but jackstands. The bushings do tend to be a pain, especially since I didn't have a press. One trick is to cut the inner steel tube with a reciprocating saw. It'll collapse, reducing it's diameter, and taking pressure off the outside of the bushing and it'll slide out much mroe easily. When all else fails, blowtorch!
TheHoonigans Weelllll here’s some of the biggest names in LA, but honestly the only one who I know drives a somewhat sporty car is David Dobrick. I love William Osman an unhealthy amount, but he drives a freaking Ford Taurus wagon. But here’s the rest of huge RUclipsrs in that general area. Shane Dawson, Conner Fronta, Trisha Peytas, Jenna marbles, Tyler Oakley, Kingsley, GiGi Gorgeous, Sawyer Hartman, Rhett and Link
Who doesn't love a Danger Dan project..? Always impressive to hear his ideas on the projects from the scumbags. Super talented guy and will one day be HHIC! Watch out, Ken!
Ball Joint press is your friend, especially for something like a control arm that is awkward and heavy. In the shop the tech would leave something like that on the car (if possible) and remove one at a time. No cheap, but it is the right tool for the job.
Lol, if you buy the proper tools you can easily replace all the bushings in a day by yourself. I did it without the proper tools and a fractured finger, it just took me like a month. Also, if you guys googled it you'd realize you only need to remove the gas tank if you are welding in reinforcements for the subframe and rtab and even then it's not recommended.
To save anyone the hassle of 11:00-11:20, the trailing arm bushings are soloable. I've done them 2-3 times on different E36s, with the trailing arm still on the car no less (which is good because the RTABs [like the FCABs] are a regular wear item in the suspension). BimmerWorld, Turner and a few other vendors sell a version of tool, which is essentially a glorified puller. I later modified mine to insert new bushings for the rear subframe.
For anyone who is doing bushings without a press, the easiest way to get them out is to just cut the metal sleeve out with a hacksaw. Put the blade through the bushing (might have to cut/burn some rubber out to make room) and then install the handle onto the blade. Cut through the bushing sleeve to the control arm or subframe etc and then drive it out with a hammer.
Love the videos! Im a mechanic myself. Working on a 1st gen DSM and a 95 F150 right now. I have the terrible addiction of buying "driveable projects" and ending up asking the wife for a ride more often than she likes 😂😂😂
I am only 15 and my dad bought a 1999 35th Anniversary Ford Mustang I didn't know what to do with it until I came across the Hoonigans now I am turning it into my project/daily
There are a few tools (all same basic design) for the rtab bushings. Uses a threaded rod, and some sized metal blocks to push the bushings out. Takes 5 min per rta.
unknown and integrate the cage into their mounts. Actually very important since they’ll trash the car and they also have powerflex installed.... Eventually all E46 suffer from this: ruclips.net/video/QRmGwbBlJf8/видео.html
Cody Jarvis with the abuse these cars get and especially with an engine upgrade like this, not think about FD, I can’t imagine that this floor would hold up very long. Fairly easy to do, so why not? flic.kr/p/u9RQN4
Love watching this shit, helps me to pick up some ideas for the E36 project me and my old man are doing. After watching the process for doing the RTABs, I am so not looking forward to doing that part, will probably be worse because ours have already separated.
I have had some bushings and friction fitted parts that have tested the limits of the press I use. My father in law and I had that thing maxed out and nothing was budging then while everything was under load we hit it with the oxy acetylene and BOOM! Problem solved. Kinda scary actually
A hydraulic press is such a luxury, we used to do this with a drill a hacksaw blade and a hammer and lots of sweat in our eyes and elbow grease, sometimes without a workbench and without a vice :(
Dan you should have gotten the rear trailing arm bushing tool! You can get them from ECS tuning, bavauto, fcp euro, etc. By myself I can have the rear trailing arm bushings out in 5 minutes. Worth the $$ and time to buy the tool.
Am I the only one excited for when they take this beast to the track and do some mad skids with the twerk stallion and vins s14. It's gonna be some hilarious content, can't wait
ADA - ask Dan anything! Post your questions below, and Dan might answer them in his next Bonus Channel Q+A.
TheHoonigans why go through the trouble of finding an m3 when most m parts are coming out?
dan when scoto gonna finish his audi and the rest of his cars
What the best part of being Dan?
TheHoonigans what's the best way to deal with lowering the car without sacrificing the steering angle?
TheHoonigans how did you learn to work on cars and how long have you been doing it
Should Dan bring the power beard back??
yes he should
Please, yes. Yes.
TheHoonigans yes when I first saw him in frame I was like noooooooo!
Its hard to look at his naked man child face. Dan grow that shit back fam.
Yep he looked like a badass with it man
I get surprised whenever Dan's facial hair gets shaved then reappears like magic in another episode. Where can i get equip-able facial hair, Dan? Don't be telling me it's Dollar Shave Club.
I wanted to ask Dan what he feeds his mustache. If you look at the beginning and end of this episode, you'll notice the difference.
gotta love the quick release beard
probably feeds it with Brads improper booger welds
The quality of the content on this channel keeps getting better and better and the videos get more entertaining!!! Keep up the work guys
Mate this mechanic cant even fit a diff in a BMW you call that good i call it bull shit CHANNEL just a cheap skate fitter
As a guy with an LS swapped E36 M3 it’s bad ass seeing you guys go through this process. I laughed when you said I don’t know how anyone does RTABs by themselves. Fire... fire and drilling 👌
y'all are really making me want a project car that I can't afford. please, stop it. XD
We like to call it carcaine. It's a helluva drug.
im in the same boat buddy lolol
They already got me in it lol
Lol I'm wanting a e30 for some weird reason now😕
Try Jeeps for project cars.... JEEP (Just Empty Every Pocket)
I wish I had money to buy a ls engine and follow along. Dan's videos = class in sesson!
Find any catfish Camaro, if it has an engine only and no trans, you’ll pay close to $600-800. Depends on location. Here in Michigan I’ve found a few Camaros that don’t run but still have an engine in them for about that price
@@notawizard6867 to the moon🚀
Hands down my favourite show on this channel. Yard party is a close second though.
Watching that diff assembly thrown together was awesome. Looks like a more advanced Torsen system. Very cool.
jpierce91 when that expert was talking about the diff I was like ...... mhmmm, yeah....got it. Lmao.
Thank you for showing all the frustrating parts that inevitably show up when working on cars. All "car shows" I grew up watching on Saturday morning would just cut from a product plug on the workbench to the final clicks on the rachet. Working on cars is almost always a battle of will against siezed bolts and frustration.
what a really really smart tip he gave about the jack under the front so the car doesnt possibly tip off the lift.
I just have to say Monday to Friday I wake up before 8am to watch hoonigan and go back to sleep after. Literally if I get asked what do you wake up for the only answer is Hoonigan. Love you guys
This is my favorite segment from Hoonigan! Dan is like the "other" me if I had no kids and the budget of Ken Block. It took me five years to complete my E30.
I enjoy that there's no random explosions of emotion between employees in this automotive series..."part falls"..."watch out"..."work continues".
dan the man with the master plan, every video gets better and better. i cant afford any of this but i love learning all about this stuff, thank you hoonigans!!!
The new production and quality of work is insane guys. You are better than anything you see on TV. Keep up the bad ass work.
Belleville washers/springs are what make landmines go BOOM! They keep the firing pin & pressure plate elevated above the primer until it's stepped on.
I need a new diff. Every time I try and get my E36 on BC's out of the school carpark one wheel goes in the air! Thanks for the show Dan!
Would of personally done the reinforcement plates for the subframe and trailing arms while it was all out. Only gonna cause issues down the line! Done it on mine and it’s solid with all the power flex bushes
5 months later sorry... Would really like to hear more about this. Did you guys check the subframe retainer threads or anything?
Two episodes with Dan in one day. Best. Day. Ever.
Man I was waiting for Danger Dan to get another Zac special done to his face... Where's Dollar Shave Club when I needed them haha
Love that you guys are rocking the Harbor Freight tools... true budget build. top to bottom.
Im rewatching the season while my FEA is running. Thank you for getting me through this hour
i love all the crazy baddassery on this channel. but seeing a more serious build series like this is so cool. i love that i can see both types of content on the same channel. fun crazy hooning and legit building from knowlegable people. ill be a hoonigan channel fan for life.
Danger Dan is the MAN! All his stuff is sick and I dont know shit about cars just learning as much as I can, Keep it up!
the amount of videos you guys are pumping out is awesome. I've never really been into the building part of cars but i really enjoy watching all the builds you have done. now i wait for a update on vinnys car and see if he actually gets done before scotto.
I’m happy you guys added this show, I was so disappointed with garage garage this week but this makes up for it
Literally everything you guys post is just shy of God-tier awesome. Thank you.
I love love how you guys explain the parts and show the parts. The editing is 🔥🔥 as well.
Thanks guys!!
Hell yeah! Finally Hoonigans put respect on a e36
thanks dan i have an e36 in my driveway since 7 years and you just motivated me to do something about it
Now this is interesting.
I did trailing arm bushings once as a noob. Hell on earth. Ended up using a drill and a metal saw.
I love Dan, kind hearted and hard working.
Danger Dan is by far the most down to earth hooligan . 2thumbs up
My first car was an 02 Chevy Cavalier Coupe slammed down to about an 1" to 1.5" on tien coil-overs! Drove it daily in TN, made driving REALLY engaging! LOL
Beached it on speed bumps, scrapped on driveways and 3 wheeled it going up the steep af driveway to my town house.... Practical? NO. Fun? Hell Yes!
Oh and no engine mods, just a B&M short shifter and a beck arnley clutch with an AEM intake... lol
Dan the man, no green eggs or ham, just him straight cooking in an L.S frying pan!
This is dope. Glad no one is yelling at me and I get to learn some shit.
steve o THATS A WRAPPPPPPPPP
Corey 01 lol I can dig it in their hype channel but sometimes I just wanna learn how to become the sketch daddy
steve o can't handle being yelled at? Here's a way to avoid that, ask questions and don't do dumb shit. Hope it helps and your feelings didn't get hurt.
OGskunkMASTA I can handle being yelled at but it seems the Hoonigans guys are setting different tones for different vids IE build biology and such. Maybe you should've picked that up, kid.
Pumphrey?
I love these videos so much! I found it easier to melt my bushing out with a torch since I don't have a hydraulic press.
Can't wait for the next episode. This project is turning out great so far. Because of this series I know now how much of a pain replacing bushings can be haha 😂
Danger Dan is doing a killer job on this show! Keep up the awesome work ⚒
Next time fab up a RTAB tool, makes life muuuuch easier. Loving this build series, thanks guys!
I've dropped and redone both subframes on my E46 with nothing but jackstands. The bushings do tend to be a pain, especially since I didn't have a press.

Hey love what y’all are doing and I want u to keep doing that! And do more collabs with you tubers in La and have them bring there cars to the lot!!!
Which ones do you suggest?
TheHoonigans you should do a collab with Mighty Car Mods. I know they are not from LA, but they are cool.
TheHoonigans Donut Media maybe?
TheHoonigans Weelllll here’s some of the biggest names in LA, but honestly the only one who I know drives a somewhat sporty car is David Dobrick. I love William Osman an unhealthy amount, but he drives a freaking Ford Taurus wagon.
But here’s the rest of huge RUclipsrs in that general area. Shane Dawson, Conner Fronta, Trisha Peytas, Jenna marbles, Tyler Oakley, Kingsley, GiGi Gorgeous, Sawyer Hartman, Rhett and Link
Get some fledgling RUclipsrs in and help them fix their cars... like mine! lol
your work space is so clean and organized, i love it.
Who doesn't love a Danger Dan project..? Always impressive to hear his ideas on the projects from the scumbags. Super talented guy and will one day be HHIC! Watch out, Ken!
Editing on point. This is a good series. I look forward to Tuesdays now
Ball Joint press is your friend, especially for something like a control arm that is awkward and heavy. In the shop the tech would leave something like that on the car (if possible) and remove one at a time. No cheap, but it is the right tool for the job.
i changed the trailing arm bushings in my 97 bmw e36. and i do agree, they are a pain in the ass...
love these in depth tech-full episodes - please keep making more knuckle busters!!
Watching from South Africa! Never miss this show!
Lol, if you buy the proper tools you can easily replace all the bushings in a day by yourself. I did it without the proper tools and a fractured finger, it just took me like a month. Also, if you guys googled it you'd realize you only need to remove the gas tank if you are welding in reinforcements for the subframe and rtab and even then it's not recommended.
Two episodes with Dan today. Double the Dan...DOUBLE THE DANGER.
So many build ideas, this winters gonna be sick 🤘🏻 M3’s looking rad boys!!!
Damn bro, this show is hella epic. I always save this show for when i'm eating dinner. Perfect eating and chillin show lmao
Tainted Donut I thought I was the only one who did this. 😂
love it 4 eatin ass

I feel myself getting smarter every time i watch Dan build anything!!
Love the videos! Im a mechanic myself. Working on a 1st gen DSM and a 95 F150 right now. I have the terrible addiction of buying "driveable projects" and ending up asking the wife for a ride more often than she likes 😂😂😂
Hands down best show on the roster right now
Really love this series! Dan does a great job with his episodes!
I am only 15 and my dad bought a 1999 35th Anniversary Ford Mustang I didn't know what to do with it until I came across the Hoonigans now I am turning it into my project/daily
Never really followed a build on youtube till now. You guys are doing it right. Interested to to see what hood you're gonna need with that intake.
I can’t wait too se this car done I’ve been waiting for a week to see you work on this
There are a few tools (all same basic design) for the rtab bushings. Uses a threaded rod, and some sized metal blocks to push the bushings out. Takes 5 min per rta.
Youuuuuu should reinforce the subframe mounts in the rear, they usually are the first and most lethal things to break
unknown and integrate the cage into their mounts. Actually very important since they’ll trash the car and they also have powerflex installed....
Eventually all E46 suffer from this: ruclips.net/video/QRmGwbBlJf8/видео.html
sircox68 idk what dan wants to use the car for but fd and some pro ams say you can’t tie the cage in with the subframe
Cody Jarvis with the abuse these cars get and especially with an engine upgrade like this, not think about FD, I can’t imagine that this floor would hold up very long. Fairly easy to do, so why not? flic.kr/p/u9RQN4
loving knuckle busters learning a lot
This show is so dope! Loving the new format and shows keep up the good work Hoons!
Love watching this shit, helps me to pick up some ideas for the E36 project me and my old man are doing. After watching the process for doing the RTABs, I am so not looking forward to doing that part, will probably be worse because ours have already separated.
Great episode. I need a wavtrak for my M3! It's best to the Rear Trailing arm bushing while on the car with a special press and 1/2" impact.
I love the diff explanation. Thank you for that.
I have had some bushings and friction fitted parts that have tested the limits of the press I use. My father in law and I had that thing maxed out and nothing was budging then while everything was under load we hit it with the oxy acetylene and BOOM! Problem solved. Kinda scary actually
I've had a CV stuck in the hub a few times. Maxed out the press at like 25T of pressure.
This was a Subaru by the way.
Thanks for the diff disassembly! Supergood episode
Best day fo the week!!!! Knuckle Busters for life!
Nice job with the edits and the whole video in general honestly 😁
So good, loving this build series... Dan the man!
yalls are doing shit not even tv companys have done love you guys
👊
From Dan the man to Dan the baby man
Danger Dan rocking the Harbor Freight socket set
Diff breakdown was cool! Never seen it like that.
Wow those bushings came out like butter compared to what I had to do to my s14s
Danger Dan without a beard isn't just that dangerous. Epic work anyway Dan! 😎
I have never disassembled one of these the only type I've ever worked on are clutch pack type LSD It's a trip how these work
You're a wizard, Dan.
I'm a what?
A WIZARD!!
But I'm just Dan?
Well Just Dan, you are a wizard
best way to start off the month
Noone could never replace Dan
A hydraulic press is such a luxury, we used to do this with a drill a hacksaw blade and a hammer and lots of sweat in our eyes and elbow grease, sometimes without a workbench and without a vice :(
Dan I love your tool brand choice. Nice to see someone NOT bragging about how you have to use SnapOn cause everything else sucks. 🤘🤘
Dan you should have gotten the rear trailing arm bushing tool! You can get them from ECS tuning, bavauto, fcp euro, etc. By myself I can have the rear trailing arm bushings out in 5 minutes. Worth the $$ and time to buy the tool.
loving this build so far!
love how knowledgeable these videos are, keep it up guys!
that diff assembly was some good ASMR
Dan is the only dude worth watching.
Next time try throwing those bushings into the freezer for a few hours. It's a trick we use in our shop for wheel studs, bushings, balljoints etc.
Am I the only one excited for when they take this beast to the track and do some mad skids with the twerk stallion and vins s14. It's gonna be some hilarious content, can't wait
awesome project. seems like the Hoonigans have stepped up the projects. might see an actual track build finished.
Time to sit back and enjoy a good video
whats up
and you got that right
Make this an hr show can’t stop watching it 😩😩😩 thnks dan n hoonigans
Dan put in hella work this episode good shit brotha
Can’t wait see this done!
KNUCKLE BUSTERS!! LOVE DANGERDAN3!!! HOONIGAN GOODD LUCKK!
