Can't stand the tire weights stuck on the outside of the rim. UGH!

@keith_5584 says:

9:25 Tested? Not likely. Dropped in dish soap and slung, yes. People just dont return items near enough so they price used parts so cheap most people eat the cost. Thats like 70% of 3rd party Amazon sellers entire business plan. No QA just hope they are lazy enough to not return.

This is speculation but I think Amazon started to notice how bad it was making them look and added that tag to try and warn you and give pause to how much they have to eat on the return shipping for an item they may even have to pay to dispose of. Garbage is a negative balance by taking up space in a warehouse. In the same space you could have a sellable product.

I call BS on $700. Show us the bill of sale.

@briandow2974 says:

My dad used to sell wheel weights back in the 70's. He had a bubble balancer. They are ok but the spin balance is a tad more accurate. I also did the same process putting new tires on my own side by side. The hardest process is breaking the bead.

@briandow2974 says:

I'm stunned he would do this work in such a nice hoodie! I'd ruin the clothing just pulling the drain plug.

@user-os1xv5oi9q says:

Actually it is the opposite, smaller tires are way harder to mount, at least that has been my experience. 24" tires were way more difficult than 20's. Bummer code doesn't work for discount.

You did right , you only get what you pay for

@NaughtySamurai says:

Americans calling a Range Rover a truck is weird to my ears

@justjonzing3636 says:

I had a similar issue on my 4L 60 transmission on my trailblazer. Only changed the torque converter solenoid and it did the trick. Was previously stuck in third gear and now it works fine.

@jamesdunn3387 says:

The mobile tire service is amazing. Thanks for the great content. I love the high end stuff and I also love this scrappy quick and dirty.

@JacobBaron says:

I've used a bubble balancer. Got major wobbles over 50mph

@charless2684 says:

There's a duplicolor spray paint that matches the silver trim almost perfectly. I used it on my 06

@Jeezey says:

I’ve got a bubble balancer and manual bead breaker. I rarely use it, but with mounting & balancing around $40/tire now… I might go back to doing it myself

@longtime239 says:

Great price and the only way an average person would take that transmission apart would be with all those Schematics that you have that is a scary scary fix for an average person

@sarnieken says:

Proper bargain. Wish my LR experiences where that economic 🙂

@Caladuun says:

I used a bubble balancer back in auto shop (1991) and really it's just as good…..provided you take your time with it and double check when finished. Low buck but does everything an expensive tool would.

@pinkysgarage4517 says:

Sam, I love working on cars, but you do more than I would ever try. It's like you don't have a comfort zone and will attempt to fix anything. The more exotic, the better for you.
Always appreciate and enjoy your ingenuity and hard work while never getting mad – like I often do working on cars!
Keep up the great videos!
And Merry Christmas to you and all your followers.
