1 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: Ron Andanian. You ever notice everybody only wants to tell 2 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: the story about how they got burned or taken advantage of. 3 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to tell the good story. Nobody wants to 4 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: tell the story of Hey, I went to this place 5 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: and they were the absolute best. They treated me right. 6 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: The Car Doctor. I learned how to fix cars at 7 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: a very very young age just by taking things apart. 8 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: I didn't put too many things back together until I 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: was fifteen or sixteen, and I can still see my 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: mom coming out and telling me, listening to you put 11 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: something together, you're out of here. And I was sixteen 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: years old. Welcome to the radio home of Ron and Anian. 13 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: It's the Car Doctor, since this is where car owners 14 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: the world will return to for their definitive opinion on 15 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: automotive repair. If your mechanics giving you a busy signal, 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: pick up the phone and call in. The garage doors 17 00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: are open, but I am here to take your calls 18 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: at A five, five, five six or nine nine hundred 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: and now he running. Hey, it's time to start your 20 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: engines alone and welcome ronin of the Car Doctor. Here 21 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: at five five five six zero nine zero zero eight 22 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: five five five zero nine zero zero the Car Doctor 23 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: seven phone number. Give us a call. Let's talk about 24 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 1: your automobile and or its problem, whatever you got going on, 25 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: whether you want to buy a car, repair a car, 26 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: or just talk about a car you used to have, 27 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: which I do get those phone calls. UM, I have 28 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: to laugh. I guess it really drives people nuts when 29 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: they had that car I had. We've had calls over 30 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: the years. UM. I remember when, in particular, the fellow 31 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,119 Speaker 1: was talking about a car he had twenty four years 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 1: prior and he couldn't understand why it did what it did. 33 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: It was a christ Little Baron that had a stalling issue. 34 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: And it turns out after listening to him, and I 35 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: explained the problem and I went, yeah, I had a 36 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: bad distributor, and he goes, yeah, that's what I understand 37 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: from the guy who bought it two people after me, 38 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: because somebody else sold it and and then they sold it. 39 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: And he said, how did you know that? I said, 40 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: He says, how come I can get a fixed? I said, 41 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: you didn't call me back then? And I was on 42 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: the air probably at that time too. UM been here 43 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: twenty seven years, so we probably could have fixed that car, 44 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: because that's what we do we fix cars. That's what 45 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: this is all about. And it's uh in it's um, 46 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, in its in its essence. Um, that's what 47 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: we're here for. And speaking of which, let's kick the 48 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: garage doors open A five five five zero nine zero. 49 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 1: Let's get over to sylvan in Long Island eighteen Toyota 50 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: wrap for some break questions. Welcome to the car doctor. 51 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: How can I help? Yes, ire on, Uh, I'm trying 52 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 1: to get a look for you know, what's the best 53 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: pads break pads for my um? What have you seen? 54 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: You know, do we have a choice? And the reason 55 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: I asked it like this, Silva is break pads. Break 56 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: pads are kind of one of those things that's they've 57 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: almost become generic in the marketplace today. There's so many 58 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,679 Speaker 1: choices and you know, it's it's it's overwhelming. Uh. And 59 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: I could talk about what I see in North Jersey 60 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: and what I use on a semi regular basis, but 61 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: I'm curious if you've been to any auto part stores 62 00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: to see what brands are out there. Yeah, you know, 63 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: I use the Genonic, But what I find in the 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: path when I you know, when chance the path that 65 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: as a whole as good as the doesn't glab as 66 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: good as the original or is he is he machining 67 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: the rotor or changing the rotor? No, he didn't change 68 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: the roder, okay, So that's the first mistake. You know, 69 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people think a pad slap is an 70 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,519 Speaker 1: acceptable brake repair, and it's not. You know, one of 71 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: the things that machining a rotor or replacing a rotor does, 72 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: and it does a couple of things. One of it 73 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: is it provides a nice, smooth, flat surface for the 74 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: path to sit against in case the rotor has any 75 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: sort of a warper. It's it's it's at a square, 76 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: so to speak. But more importantly, it raises the friction 77 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: level because it's a rougher surface than that shiny smooth rotor. 78 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: You ever noticed a used rotor has a nice shiny 79 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: glass like appearance, right, It's it's a glaze to it. 80 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: And in a lot of cases today, the outer edge 81 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: of the rotor has a rust lip to it, and 82 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: in some extreme cases, the the face of the rotor 83 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: is starting to delaminate. It's actually starting to rust away 84 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: and fall apart. And yet people will put pads on that. 85 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying you have, But I'm just saying 86 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: to the extreme, I've seen that. And then they come 87 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: back and they say, gee, the car doesn't stop as 88 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: good as it did, just what you said to me. 89 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: The reason is because the brake pad manufacturers are counting 90 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 1: on a rougher surface of the rotor. They want that 91 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: cross hatch or they want they want an unpolished surface 92 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 1: so that it raises the temperature of the brake pad 93 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: the first time it's being used. And what that does 94 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: is that helps raise the temperature of the pad and 95 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: it helps bake and cure the pad and bring all 96 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: the resins, all the glues that are used in the 97 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: process of binding the pad together. Think of it as 98 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: boiling to the surface. You're you're boiling something on the stove, 99 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: You're boiling all the junk up from the bottom of 100 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: the pot. Wipes it away clean and now you're down 101 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: to the friction level surface of the material that much faster, 102 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: and it provides a better stopping power. So you know, 103 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: to just do a pad slap doesn't work. So regardless 104 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: of what I tell you, nothing's gonna work as well 105 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: as the o A unless you you know, unless you 106 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: have a scuffed up rotor, and you know that's just 107 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: that's just the laws of physics. That's just the way 108 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: it works. So you know, put a set of rotors 109 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: on it, or at the very least, machine them. Take 110 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: a very light cut. Just make sure whoever machines them 111 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: good clean bits, the bits are sharp. Make sure that 112 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: the index surface the surface that sits against the rotor. 113 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: You ever, you ever cut a break rotor silva? Okay? 114 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,239 Speaker 1: You ever notice how the way the cones sit against 115 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: the rotor flange. There's always a big cone and a 116 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: little cone. Do you know what? Do you know what 117 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: that's therefore the clamping cones? Do you know why there's 118 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: two different sizes other than the obvious that it has 119 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: to fit the rotor? Do you know that? When they 120 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: when they when they teach you how to use a 121 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: brake leading in class, you want to try and emulator 122 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: get the clamping force around the lug nuts as close 123 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: as possible where the lug nuts come through, because you're 124 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: trying to duplicate the amount of clamp force that the 125 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: wheel has against the rotor against the hub, because you're 126 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: trying to keep it, you know, in the upright position. 127 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: It's if you use the small cones on too big 128 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: of a rotor, you'll actually machine it incorrectly and it'll 129 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: be it will become an issue. But it's the idea 130 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: that everything has a reason for the way it's done 131 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 1: in a break job. So it's it's it's machine the rotor, 132 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: replace the rotor. And then does your brother in law 133 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: when he does it, does he louse all the contact surfaces? Okay? 134 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: You know, and that's important too. You want to lose 135 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: all the contact points. You want to put a little 136 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: deb of uh whatever flavor break paste he's using. And 137 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: I can talk about that for the next hour. Um 138 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: in and of itself, there's so many choices, but it's 139 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: the idea that, you know, just doing pads isn't a 140 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: great idea? That that being said, what brand of brake 141 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: pads do you have exposure to? I used to use 142 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: the semi metallic Autozoome brand. Well, semi metallic. Semi metallic 143 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: was an original equipment. Your car, your your car, your 144 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: RAF four came with ceramics, all right, and you're gonna 145 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: notice a difference in stopping power if you use a 146 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: semi metallic all right, the House brown, the House brand 147 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: auto zone. You know you'd have to see. I know 148 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: what it is. It's a it's a break pads set. Correct. 149 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: You know the expression, brother, you get what you pay for, 150 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: all right, you already know this answer. Um, you know 151 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: it's it's as them. You know, what does the break 152 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: pads said catch you? What does the sixty dollar break 153 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: pads said catch you? Now? I've never sold breaks in 154 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: my forty three years on the basis of a lifetime guarantee. 155 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,239 Speaker 1: I think anybody that buys that thinks that there's ocean 156 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: front property in Arizona. You know it just it just 157 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense to me, because sooner or later 158 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna wear out your brakes. And if you don't, 159 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: then I don't know what you're thinking. Uh, you know, 160 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: spend a little bit more on your brake pads. It's 161 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: worth it. You're worth it, right, machine the rotors do 162 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: it right. Try not to do this. This isn't something 163 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: we want to do in expensively. I'm sorry. It's the 164 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: best answer I got, kiddo. Okay, thank you so much. 165 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: You're very welcome. I can't say enough about doing a 166 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: proper break job. I can tell you what brake pads 167 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: we use I've got three different levels of breakpad I 168 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 1: use in the shop, depending upon I try to meet 169 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: somebody's budget, but I also try to meet the fact 170 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: that throughout it's it's not a question of one stops 171 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: better than the other. It's a matter of longevity. All right, 172 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: All my break jobs stop equally as well.

Well, 176 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: they don't stop as well, your honor, but they were cheaper, 177 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: and that's why I used them, right. You know, I'd 178 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: be standing in front with a little sign with the 179 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: numbers in front of me.

Here's Ron. Hey, 256 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: let's get over and talk to Kathy and Delaware. Kathy. 257 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor. How can I help? Hi? 258 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: Can you hear me? Yes? Man, I'm fine. Um. Well, 259 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: I bought this really nice little Toyota small Winnebago winn 260 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: a Bagel Class c r V that's like the pickup 261 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: truck with the little you know, trailer thing on the back. Yeah. Yeah, 262 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: they're cool. Yeah, it's really cute. Yeah. So I took 263 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: it through inspection in Delaware and it didn't pass the 264 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 1: great test. I was really a creative the emissions. But 265 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: everything there it went fine, and they said that the 266 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: great rear axle wasn't wasn't working okay, So um, I 267 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: took it to a mechanic who said, you really couldn't 268 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: work on it. Advised me to go to like a 269 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: truck or the mechanics. And I just went there yesterday 270 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: and he looked at the brakes, he said they looked 271 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: pretty good. He said, I'll look at the drums, you know, 272 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: I'll adjust everything, we'll clean them up. And but he 273 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: said everything looks good to me. He said there's no leaking, 274 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: there's no nothing. But then I turned around, went back 275 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: and same exact results with the test that the right 276 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: rear actual is locking up. So the states saying that 277 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: the right side is locking up. On the left side 278 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: is not right, and the front is fine like the 279 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: front two tires or you know, like the stopping the 280 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: ability of the vehicle is great, but it's registering zero 281 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: on the right rear. It's registering zero. It's it's is 282 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: it that the wheel is locking up or is it 283 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: that it's not. It's not applying at all. Um, we're 284 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: trying to interpret what they said. I even went back 285 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: and spoke to them, but it said the rear actual 286 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: is exerting zero pounds pressure. Okay, so they're saying they're 287 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: saying the right rear doesn't work. We're thinking, okay, and yeah, 288 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: it is confusing, right. I remember when Jersey had the 289 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: when when New Jersey actually had a safety program because 290 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: they cared, which now they don't. UM, and I can 291 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: attest to that, being a motor vehicle inspector of New 292 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: Jersey for the better part of twenty five years, that 293 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: UM the brake test was always the hardest I could. 294 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: I couldn't interpret what the state was saying. Uh. Sometimes 295 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: I don't think they knew what they were saying. They 296 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: just they had handed this piece of paper and go, 297 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: here's what the machine says. Nobody really knew how to 298 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: interpret it. So you know, I'm gonna assume dirty word 299 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: that the mechanic that looked at it, you know, pulled 300 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: the drum, the shoes, do they look like they're wearing, 301 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: does the wheel cylinder move? And then are they equally 302 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: adjusted side to side? He referenced anything like that, people 303 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: and everything looked great. And then he went and made 304 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: sure that the drums we're cleaned. Um, everything you know, 305 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: looked in good shape. And then he adjusted both sides 306 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: of the brake in case that was it. But he 307 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: said he didn't see where it was a cylinder and 308 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: he said there was no leaka. So then how about 309 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: this for a test? All right? Let me ask you this. 310 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: In Delaware? Do you can you go to a private 311 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: facility for inspection or has it always got to be 312 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: the state? I don't know that. Um, that would be 313 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: my first question, because sometimes you need somebody who's got 314 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,959 Speaker 1: a vested interest, somebody that's trusted that can work on 315 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: it to get a straight answer. But let's let's diagnose it, right. 316 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: Let's forget about inspection because personally, I don't care what 317 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 1: inspection says. I want to know that you're safe, all right. 318 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: I want to know that you know, the brakes are 319 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: gonna work like they're supposed to work. So you know, 320 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: we can do this a couple of ways. You know, 321 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: we could take a wet road surface, all right and 322 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 1: drive down at a ten mile and jam on the brakes, 323 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: do a panic stuff, all right. Agreed that if we 324 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: if we had a little bit of a slick road, 325 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: and you know you gotta be careful doing this, and 326 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: I would tell you to do this in a gigantic 327 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: parking lot. All right, So you've got rumor around you. Um, 328 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: if if, if the right rear truly is not working, 329 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:20,239 Speaker 1: then the front breaks and the left rear should lock up, agreed, right, 330 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: and and and the right rear would just continue to roll, 331 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: all right. If we see the right rear lock up, 332 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 1: then then we got to ask ourselves what's the state 333 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: actually picking up? All right? Or we could do this 334 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: a little safer, and I kind of like this way better. 335 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: How about if we pulled the right rear drum back off, 336 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: painted the surface, you know, put some type of a 337 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: light coating of a paint material or a blueing material 338 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: like they use in a machine shop on the inside 339 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: contact area of the drum, and went out for a ride, 340 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: drove it, came back, pull the drum back off. If 341 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: the material is still there, then that breaks not being 342 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,040 Speaker 1: applied right the ship. The shoe isn't wiping away on 343 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: the drum surface. Third way a little harder to do 344 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: because not a lot of shops have this, But there 345 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: are hydraulic gauges out there. That you would take out 346 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: the bleeder screw for the wheel cylinder and screw this 347 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: cage in. And you know, typically these hydraulic brake pressure 348 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: gage sets have two gauges in them, and you know 349 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: you would, you know, hook one to the left rear, 350 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: hook one to the right rear. Drive down the road. 351 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what the spec is. If if the 352 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: left rears eleven D, the right rear better B eleven 353 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: hundred and so on, you know, just just to see 354 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 1: as it working. And then the simplest test of all, 355 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: if we put it up in the air, if we 356 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: have somebody pressed on the brake, does the right rear 357 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 1: does the right rear? You can't say that fast? Can 358 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: you the right rear wheel? Can you lock up the 359 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: right rear wheel? You know, is it is it? Does 360 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: it turn still? Um? You know. The last thing I 361 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: want to mention is because I've seen this on older Toyota's, 362 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: that the older Toyotas, and I've even seen it on 363 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: the newer ones. They have what we call a break proportioning, 364 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: a break a rear axle break proportioning valve in English. 365 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: All right, if you ever looked at the car's braking 366 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: system that if it's a front disc rear drum car, 367 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: they they they apply at different rates because of their design, 368 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: how they're how how they're constructed. All right. So the 369 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: manufacturers a million years ago, back when I was in 370 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: high school and I was a kid, and dirt was invented, 371 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: they created something called a proportioning valve. They would they 372 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: would apply part of the system and waited for the 373 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: other half of the system to catch up, and then 374 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 1: they would apply all the brakes evenly. Toyota takes it 375 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: one step further on some of their older trucks, and 376 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if this has one if they were to 377 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: look above the rear axle, follow the brake line coming 378 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,239 Speaker 1: back from the front of the vehicle, does it go 379 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: into I call it it's I know it as a 380 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: prop valvet, proportioning valve to go into a proportioning valve 381 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: that splits the um amount of pressure in the rear 382 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: axle only left to right, all right. So think of 383 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: think of a see saw. Right For a see saw 384 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: to be balanced, it's got to be in the middle, 385 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: all right. What a proportioning valve does is it makes 386 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 1: sure that there's equal pressure to both sides of the 387 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: see saw. If one wheel it gets more pressure than 388 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: the other, that wheel locks up, or that wheel will 389 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 1: get more pressure than the other one. So you could 390 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: look at the shoes, the wheel cylinders, the hardware, the drum, 391 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: the adjustment. You could look at all of that and 392 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: it will always look right. But if you don't look, 393 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: it's typically middle of the axle. You don't look twenty 394 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: four inches into the middle of the car and up, 395 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: you won't see this prop value. You won't know it's there. 396 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: And it might be that after when we let's see 397 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: six when he said, yeah, it's thirty four years old. Yeah, 398 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: maybe we got a problem with the prop valve um. 399 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: But those are the things I'd be looking for, all right. Um, 400 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: But because um, there will be something that they can 401 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: look at and you know, and if they want to 402 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: hear this, yeah, I mean, if they want to hear this, 403 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 1: if they go to you know this this this is 404 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: a live broadcast, but we're also on podcast. They can 405 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: go to car Doctor Show dot com and follow the 406 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: podcast trail.

They were loose, and I replaced 491 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: them with the replaced or aftermarket type that have the 492 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 1: grease fittings, and so I grease at every time that 493 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: it gets an oil change. M h yeah. Um. And 494 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 1: is this only at your driveway or is it, you know, 495 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: anywhere on a right turn type of a pothole situation. Right, yeah, 496 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: it's anywhere in a right turn. It doesn't It doesn't 497 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: do it every single time. It seems to have to 498 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: be just in a certain position, and it doesn't have 499 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: to be a real big pothole or anything just you know, 500 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: like a major crack in the pavement or something of 501 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: that nature. Noises are tough, But let me ask you 502 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: this question. Does it does it? Is it a deep 503 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: rooted clunk or does it sound? And when I'm really 504 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: asking you is do you think it's a body noise 505 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: or do you think it's a suspension noise? It's a 506 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: it sounds more suspension. It's a deep noise like when 507 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: you have a stabilizer link or a ball joint. That's bad. 508 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: Something that's in the major suspension component that's that's worn. 509 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: When you when you look at this, are you jacking 510 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: it up? You know? Putting it on a jackstand type 511 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: of a thing and trying to find the problem that way, 512 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: or by some weird chance to have a drive on 513 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: lift that you can see everything it's at at at 514 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: road high geometry, so to speak. Yeah, I've got a 515 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 1: drive on the hoist. Okay, that's good. I'm I'm surprised, 516 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: but that's good. So when you when you look at this, 517 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: and obviously you're pulling, poking and prodding, what does the 518 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: lower control arm look like on that side as far 519 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:54,959 Speaker 1: as that rear bushing, Yeah, it looks fine. It doesn't 520 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: look worn or anything. If you if you take a 521 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: pride bar and try and move pushing, if you put 522 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: any load on it, yeah, okay, and it doesn't move. 523 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: It doesn't seem to move. Nor have you tried tightening 524 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: the cradle bolts. Yeah, I've tried tightening every bolt on 525 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: that side. Everything seems to be tight. Um, even the 526 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: steering shaft, the universal joint in there. I checked that 527 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: to see if that was loose. Um. So you've done 528 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: a strut? You've car ever been in an accident? Not? No, 529 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: not that I'm aware of. I've owned it probably for 530 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: five years now. Has the clunk always been there since 531 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: you've owned it. No, just the last year. I would say, Okay, well, 532 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: you've done struts and they're tight, and you've done a 533 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: sway bar link and that's tight. The cradle is tight, 534 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: the the control arm, the rear bushing is good. The 535 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: front mounting bolt. Have you tried tightening that front mounting 536 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: bolt for the control arm? Yeah, it's all right, And 537 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: the ball joint doesn't move. There's no play in the 538 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: ball joint where the stud goes into the knuckle. That's 539 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: that bolt. I think I tried tightening to well that bolt, 540 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: that bolt, you know, it's not so much I'm expecting 541 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: that bolt to be loose. But what I'm what I'm 542 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: wondering is is the bottom of the knuckle where that 543 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: stud comes in because they tend to rust, and Wisconsin 544 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: sort of a high rust area because of the salt 545 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: and the corrosion the snow. And I'm wondering if I'm 546 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: wondering if that ball joint, if the stud is loosing 547 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: the knuckle. When we're thinking of pinch bolt, but just 548 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: a regular stud. You're saying, right, well, that is a 549 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: pinch bolt set up. But I'm not I'm obviously concerned 550 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:53,959 Speaker 1: about the bolt in the way it pinches the knuckle. 551 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: But I'm wondering if that stud is loose in the 552 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: knuckle itself. Listen, you you've got the ability, You've got 553 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: a unique opportunity. You can do something most people can't. 554 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: You can take that right front wheel off, put it 555 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: on a jackstand or a block of wood under the 556 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: control arm the way that cars going down the road. 557 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: Get the tire off so you can get a good 558 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: look at everything. Obviously the other four tires are being 559 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: supported by the hoist, and really get a look at 560 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:23,600 Speaker 1: the geometry and see what's going on. Something's moving, Something's 561 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: got to be moving. Brother, you know, there's there There's 562 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: nothing else left. Uh the The only other thing I 563 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: can think of is the sway bar cracked under the 564 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: bushing that holds it to the cross member to the 565 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: to the cradle. Mhm. Yeah, I've looked at that. That 566 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: seems to be good too, you know. But but well, 567 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: to look at that you have to take you have 568 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: to either take the bushing apart or disconnect the link 569 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: and try turning the outer end of the bar. Is 570 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: it tight to the inner side of the bar. If 571 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, it's like twisting of pretzel. Uh. 572 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: You know, if it's cracked under the bushing, one side 573 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: is gonna move on the other side, won't I see? 574 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: Which means you know, yeah, is it is the sway 575 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: bar cracked under the bushing. I see, all right? And 576 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: then just for giggles, what's have you looked at the 577 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: left side? I know you say the noise is the 578 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: right front? What have you look at the left side? 579 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: It is the left side. It's on the right turn 580 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: that it does it? But I see what you're saying. 581 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: Does it just sound like? Um? And then and then 582 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: my last thought is could we have Could it be 583 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: an issue with the way the rack is mounted? Could 584 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: the rack be shifting somehow? I checked those bolts too, 585 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: They're they're really tough to get at. I think I 586 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: went through the engine compartment and looked at those, you know, 587 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: and they don't have to be loose. Listen. I can't 588 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: tell you how many times in my career I found 589 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: bolts that are tightened. The components still moves because it's 590 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 1: either compressed thinner than its original dimension, or something's cracked 591 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: broken that I can't see, and it still allows that 592 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: you know, the bolts bottomed out, it can't at any 593 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: tighter and the objects still moves, So can I move 594 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: that rack? You know? So, And like I said, I 595 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: would look at the other side. You know, I can't 596 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: tell you how many times I found that where I'm thinking, yeah, 597 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: it's right side, right side, left side, left side, and 598 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: it's the other side. You know, I guess, I guess. 599 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: The The key component comes back to is are we 600 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: sure it's the front? That's pretty easy that you could. 601 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: You know, um that you can tell the front wheel, 602 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: get it, it's before the back wheels right, Okay, So 603 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: then it's it's you know, steering front, steering, suspension. Angle 604 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:44,240 Speaker 1: in geometry goes through radical changes on compression, rebound and 605 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,720 Speaker 1: and turns, and you just got to think of every 606 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: phase that those components are in, how their angles and 607 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,760 Speaker 1: the geometry changes, and it just gives you a different 608 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: way to look at it to try and find the clunk. 609 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 1: But the fact that you've got to drive on, brother, 610 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:02,439 Speaker 1: you're ahead of everybody, So all right, give it a poke, 611 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: give it a poke around and see what else you 612 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: can find.

Oh six forward ranger, Yes, Rich, Chuck and help, 692 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: Hey Ron, you have a six ranger and it took 693 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: in for something unrelated. Uh, And the mccanic told me 694 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: that my harmonic dampeners loose and in to six it, 695 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 1: i'd also have to replace the drive shaft and would 696 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: like to know is is that true? And clust over 697 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars to do this? Well, why what is he? 698 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: What is he seeing about the drive shift? And you know, 699 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it could be a true statement. You know, 700 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 1: I've learned over my over, over my mechanical career to 701 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:40,839 Speaker 1: respect drive shafts a whole lot more than I did 702 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,319 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, because they create some very 703 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: unique issues. They can be out of balance, they can 704 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: be too short, too long, um, you know, bad you 705 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: joints are the obvious, easy one. But there's a lot 706 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:56,360 Speaker 1: of things that a drive shaft can affect on a vehicle, 707 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 1: back on rear wheel drive vehicles when they existed that 708 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, I've seen a lot of funny things happened. 709 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: Did he give a specific reason why? No? And I 710 00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,120 Speaker 1: should have asked, Yeah, And what's wrong with the damper. 711 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 1: Is it that the bolt is loose on the crank 712 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: or is it that the outer ring is spinning on 713 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: the on the balance or stubb. Okay, so it needs 714 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: a damper. That's obvious, so we can we can assume 715 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: maybe he is this a sticker and automatic stick So 716 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, is he seeing a bad you join on 717 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: the drive shaft and you know you just misunderstood him 718 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: to think say that it had something to do with 719 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: the balancer or is the shaft out of balance? Does 720 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 1: he see missing weight? You know, there's a weights or 721 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: spot well to to the to the to the shaft, 722 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: and you know, does he see a missing weight? The 723 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: weld is broken and it's missing a weight, And maybe 724 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: he's thinking, or maybe he's thinking there was something else 725 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: he saw with the shaft that the vibration, you know, 726 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: think of it like this. The harmonic balancer is on 727 00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 1: this end of the engine. The drive shafts on this end. Yeah, 728 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,839 Speaker 1: you know, you know, um, what's the word I'm looking for? 729 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: Torsional vibration? Okay, uh, you know, tortional there's none of 730 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: that right now, there's no vibration at all. Something thinking 731 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: maybe I just drive it until I start feeling well well. 732 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: But you know, maybe he's looking for a reason on 733 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,439 Speaker 1: why the balance are failed. Maybe it's a vibration level 734 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: that you can feel. You know. Sometimes your butt's not 735 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: as sensitive as the parts on the car. Hard as 736 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 1: it might be to believe, um, you know, but it's 737 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 1: just it just works that way. So the real question 738 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: is what makes him think, Because I've got to tell 739 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 1: you I can honestly say, and I don't want to. 740 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,839 Speaker 1: I don't want to disparage this guy because he might 741 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 1: be right. He might be seeing something. I can't remember 742 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: ever saying, hey, you need a balance or in a 743 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 1: dry shift, you got you gotta give me a reason. 744 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 1: You gotta tell me the you know, there's gotta be 745 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: something there that he saw. Uh, you know, it's I 746 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,879 Speaker 1: can remember saying somebody needs a balancer and a crankshaft, 747 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 1: and then they needed a drive shaft, and the the 748 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 1: issue was somebody did a modification. And actually what happened 749 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 1: was it was a vehicle. Go where you ever look 750 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: at a leaf spring and you see the bolt that 751 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: goes through the bottom of the leaf spring to center 752 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: the dif on the rear leaf springs that it's square. 753 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: So one of those one of those broke. All right, 754 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,399 Speaker 1: long long story short from a million years ago. One 755 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 1: of those broke and the rear slid forwards. Somehow it 756 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: moved and it pushed the drive shaft in, and it 757 00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: pushed the drive shift in enough that it came into 758 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 1: hard contact with the tail shift of the trans, which somehow. 759 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: The only theory we had was we it loaded the 760 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 1: input shift the output shaft of the trans into the input, 761 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: the input into the back of the crank, and it 762 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: wiped out the balancer. And you know, we we ended 763 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 1: up fixing all of it. We put a drive shift in. It, 764 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 1: fixed the leaf spring, the trans is okay. We put 765 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 1: a crank in a balancer, and then the car went 766 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: down the road. Never saw it again. It's possible, Um, 767 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 1: So it's not necessarily you have to replace the drive 768 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 1: shaft only if there's a joint problem. Yeah, I mean 769 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not. Let me say it like this. 770 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: If he sees nothing wrong with the drive shaft and 771 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: he's changing the drive shaft with the balancer because for 772 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: lack of a better way to put it, that's the 773 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: that's the mechanical church he went to. I know, of 774 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: no mechanical reason why changing a drive shaft and a 775 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 1: balance or go together unless it's not like they're balanced. 776 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 1: It's not that this one has an effect on that. 777 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: A flywheel, that's a different conversation. You know. Now we're 778 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: talking about if it's an internally balanced engine or an 779 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: externally balanced engine. And you know we have that conversation 780 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: with regards to balancers and flywheels. That's a whole another story. 781 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 1: But a drive shaft, there's got to be something going 782 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: on there. Unless he just started, Yeah, so I should 783 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: ask him. And if he starts hum humming, and right, 784 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: if he starts some of the humming a humminging, he's 785 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 1: trying to buy lawn furniture in time for Memorial Day. 786 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: So um, you know that's that's listen. I gotta tell you. 787 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 1: And I want to say this for everybody. If if 788 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 1: a mechanic tells you you need something, you should not 789 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: be afraid to say why. It's it's it's not a 790 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: bad thing. Um. You know, It's like I you know, 791 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: you go to the doctor if the doctor told you 792 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 1: you needed to, you know, amputate your left foot, and 793 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: you went in for a head cold. W don't you say, 794 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,439 Speaker 1: why right, you know, same thing. You have a couple 795 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,919 Speaker 1: of crack CV joints. I'll take in to get those 796 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 1: look at that. I'll ask them at that time. Why 797 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: how long? How long you have been going to this guy? 798 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,959 Speaker 1: Oh no, I have won't been there a couple of times, 799 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 1: maybe over the last couple of years. So you know 800 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 1: this is this is that.
