In a previous video https://youtu.be/FCy-YcZ2Xs4 we had a look at a rusty crusty Dodge Charger and tried to determine if we could replace the axles in this car with out to many challenges in the way. Well, the best way to see what’s gonna happen is to get started. -Enjoy!

Your the bestâ¤â¤â¤
great job !! fix what you can to help out the family. it is great that you fixed it knowing that you may eat some parts just to help out a family in financial trouble.
Your iron level should be up with all the rust particles you inhaled.ðŸ˜
No Hate, i LOVE YOU MAN
I don't care what anybody else says you're the best in my book!
Eric, you need to patent your favorite New York rust remover spray.
This car hasn't seen much work in a crusty while
Rust 0 Eric O for the win !
You should have had rainman ray come up and help with that one. He’s never seen anything so rusty 😅. Good job gentlemen. Thanks for helping that girl out
With the crazy price of new vehicles I dont blame anyone for fixing what others think is junk.
I wish you would explain why some days no gloves, some days gloves.Same job, part 1, no gloves, next day part 2, gloves.
Good job. Eric
Hi Eric my question is why don't you have some sponsors? Ones that wouldn't affect your impartiality?
Looks very similar to our Manitoba cars. Thanks for the video series .
I am still totally astounded that when a car comes in you don't do a complete restoration on it. At my garage when customer comes in for a wiper blade we put that car on the rotisserie and it don't leave until it's PERFECT!!! LOL
The only thing I don't understand is why Anybody anywhere close to Eric does not go to him first. It seems like He gets a lot of seconds and dealer cant doos, or doos wrong.
Customer knows about the other issues.
you helped her out, customers are like old ladies at bingo, you do a great job and the tell everyone, do a bad job and they tell everyone. You did a great job
Ohhh no u got Vic out. Burn that MF.
Wow, the reluctor ring looks like it is a junky component at only 75k. Excellent repair on a barnacle encrusted Dodge, salvaged from the deeps of the Atlantic Ocean. Eric boldly going where no other mechanic has gone before. Captain Kirk would be proud. Eric deep sixes the almighty greenback so the customers next Stage Coach still pulls in on time. A modern day American hero that keeps his customers ride going, like maintaining the Pony Express.
Great Channel, Great fix and wonderful watching you perform the impossible repairs.
Look at them bolts holding the wheel bearing on dang. There almost gone I can't believe they spray shit on the roads that does that ..they make chargers in awd
Tie rod ends more important than abs, in my opinion. What good is abs if you loose steering completely! 😄
The way he talks there must be a bunch of wannabe tyrant mechanic's that like dictating what customers can & cant drive in leftist states.
The customer’s tears work for me too ! Jobs like this after complete , puts a “sense†of purpose to my knowledge & a smile in the bathroom mirror when I’m trying to wash the rust out of my ears ! I say to myself,,,, that’s the last one I will do like that ! Till next time ! LOL,,, Eric,,, get r Dunn !
lol Ya gotta do what ya gotta do to make em happy.
You helped someone in trouble back on the road for less, but warned her. You're a good man in my eyes.
I was amazed at how lucky you got with that pile….Normally every nut bolt bushing would have been stuck beyond help ..I used to run an appropriate drill bit down the sensor hole to clean them up good … You lucked out and you obviously pass that on to a customer you will likely see again .. Bravo …Hats off to South Main Auto..
I'm guessing no annual vehicle inspection there?
Can’t be tight if it’s liquid.
Always try to help the customer out. Sometimes it works out sometimes not so much. Nice job !!!
Don't you guys have Delta Sonics down there?
That lower ball joint will fail and crash her car.
I admire your tenacity. As regards all the people that you mentioned about charging double et cetera it’s because you have a decent human being and not a cowboy as we would say in the UK that you are just a good man. By the way looking at the general state of that car I don’t think it would pass what we call in the UK and MOT in other words it would be scrap because of the rot! Great videos and please I’ve you with your great videos ðŸ‘ðŸ‘ðŸ‘
I'm glad to be in the south I do get a truck from time to time from new York or Maine and the rust is a beast but to live there and handle the rust everyday more power to you I hope your pay rate compensates for the rust factor
Rust never sleeps. If my new challenger ever gets to looking like that I’ll shoot myself.
