Hey, Chris. I wanted to ask you something pertaining to this video. After you break the bolts/nuts loose initially, is it good practice to soak them with pb blaster? I had a water pump bolt break on me one time, so I hammered a socket on the exposed remainder of the bolt, and once I finally got it to break loose, I soaked it with pb blaster, so as to lubricate the housing as the bolt was being extracted. Saved the threads, and new pump bolted up like a charm. Just something to think about

Nice video content! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you thought about - Patlarny Vehicle History Principle (do a search on google? It is an awesome one of a kind product for discovering how to repair your car the simple way minus the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my good mate called Gray at very last got amazing success with it.

I have an 89 Pontiac Grand Am. I put the new shocks on the back (they have one bolt inside the trunk that screws straight down) one of these unscrewed at the top and every time I hit a bump jumps to the height of the clearance that is loose. Makes a racket. Okay, so I tried to tighten it down inside the trunk with the top bolt and the whole damn shock housing turns. What on Earth.

I learned how to change my rotors and brake pads from Cris Fix, and so far it's been great.
I was shopping around to get a better price on my rear shocks on my Toyota minivan.
I am gonna do it myself.
Thanks so much for the great videos, may God bless you man.

Hey ChrisFix! I have changed my 2012 Lexus IS250 brakes + Rotors, Front Struts by watching your videos. Thank you so much.
My question is: My Torque wrench is messed up. Is there a way it can be fixed? Or I have to buy a new wrench?
Thank you for your response.

my car front shock on left not working properly.
So when I will change is need to change the both shock absorber from front.
Or if I change only that one is not working is it fine.
Some people say it's better to change both one

Im stuck! I have a 06 Nissan Sentra and my 17mm bolt continually spins as the nut spins with it, and with the nut being covered at all angles but 2, its very hard to keep it held in place to loosen the bolt. Any suggestions or tips?

I have a 2006 Nissan Pathfinder which I want to change the rear shocks, but the bottom nut House a steal housing around it. The space is small and my wrench can't grab it. Any idea how to remove those bottom bolts and nuts? Thanks!
