16:33 which certain instances? Is it on specific vehicles or is it more random?
I agree we rely to much on technology, people are totally lost when it fails.
Well, I’m glad you did the video on putting the control arms on, I now no more about what I will be getting into, it’s not as bad as I thought it would be but, I have to do it in the drive way.
As for the scammers, yeah it’s gotten from just being annoying to criminal, reminds me of the some, not all, just a couple of the “religious “ shows on tv asking for money, “ our ministry can’t go on without your support “ or the “ send your mom in and God will bless you “. First of all, if you need my money to do the Lord’s work, you’re serving the wrong one, 2nd, I’m blessed everyday I wake up, I don’t need to extort God for profit…
maybe they watch you on the interweb
I haven't gotten the funeral services one yet on the east coast of FL. We get alot of Roofing sales and as always the, we will buy your house that really won't and the Indian " Steve " that is from " Microsoft Security " or " IRS "
and this is why I have kept my 2005 Camry. It takes a beating and keeps going. New cars SUCK!
You should of done the PCV valve and the hard brittle hose to it, its a Subaru thing.
I get at least 3 calls a day even though I'm on the do not call list….
When you get the diagnosis of carpal tunnel, trust me you will know before you get diagnosed. Ray I get those phone calls all the time, yes I have fun with them, I can piss off the good humor man, lol.
ive got like over 100 numbers blocked from solicitors/scammers. criminals. cloggin up peoples phones. then theres the goofballs that come to your door even. they also cause some of us even me to have my phone on vibrate only so you're right these scammers are a big problem. because they call you when you're sleeping too and thats a big no no
interesting that subaru has vented brake backplates lol maybe it helps against warped rotors. they dont put effort in these little details for nothing i think
Yeah those robocalls are a big deal!! I get a minimum of six to eight a day, everyday😮😢
Don’t answer the phone. If I get a call from a number that I don’t know, I let it ring and if it’s viable, a voicemail will appear. Problem solved!
Give your customers money back
Bro your still doing it wrong. Go learn
I’m surprised there’s not a kotter pin in the castle bolt instead of a slip pin
The worst thing is answering the scam number because when you answer they will sell your number to someone else telling then that you will pick up the phone. Sign up to the no call list. There is a guy that has 4 different phone numbers and is on the no call list and sues telemarketers for $1500 per violation that calls him continually and makes a living doing it taking them to small claims court. He also goes after Robo callers.
Hey Ray, I think if you have Carpal Tunnel etc, you will be aware of it. It will cause pain in your wrists. Ya can’t miss it.
Concerning the Spam Spam phone calls, my wife & I are Retired & we get probably between 15 to 20 calls a day. Some days more, some days less. They irritate me on a regular basis.
They are very greedy individuals.
It's organized Crime …
I just noticed that there is only one pivot point in that control arm. Interesting..
@10:30 I got a voicemail on my phone yesterday supposedly from the USPS that my mail had been returned twice and to call this number starting with a (6##) area code. Hmmm. My first thought was it looked like one of those offshore ones that keep you on hold and charge you $10.00 per minute. My second thought was that I got a package from "The Jungle Company" the day before AND my mail out of the box! Third thought: How tf does USPS have my cell number?
They are watching you, they know your voice & they are scared of you. bad scammers😡🤣🤣🤣😂🙃 ðŸ˜
That is like asking a car mechanic what is physically wrong with you, Ray, if you start to feel tingle, itch or sharp heating pain in your arm, wrist or hand and fingers, then you are too late. I have over 10 years RSI from my late job and I ignored it too late, now it is irreversible and I do have to live with continue pain and discomfort in both arms including hands up to my back spine down to my buttocks. It is bad. So, feel anything out of the ordinary, go to your doctor. But you do a lot of different movements with your body and no continuous repeated movements like I did, that is a killer… Don't worry, be happy!
It's always better to go with OEM parts, not all after market parts are of equal quality….ie Dorman is just crap now
When i look at modern car suspension systems(Plates on top of plates) I feel confident the Old School 'Upper and Lower A-Frame' was a lot tougher, easier to maintain, and less prone to failure than whats being sold as a Car front end suspension on modern vehicles. (Prime example of plate on plate front suspension 9:25 )
This is not an F1 racer and i think the bushings will outlast the vehicle no matter what position they are tightened in.
Ray, tapered line up tool !
Ray, when they answer push 9, puts you on their no call list. They will call from other numbers, and you have to do this a few times, then it just stops.
Hey Ray it's Steve Certified utube/X doctor. Have a glizzy and see if that helps.
I'm pretty sure the reason the scam callers all hang up on Ray in particular…his number is on a scammer "don't bother with this person" list as they have seen you waste scammer time on your channel! Note the SEPARATE robo caller initial automated system makes the connection (but doesn't have a filtered list of phone numbers), and once transferred to a "closer" Ray's number is flagged as having zero scam potential, "hang up immediately"…and they do. I'll also bet the separate robo caller system gets a small bounty just for a confirmed connection to a human…so they are incentivized to just make that connection.
Hey ray u actually mentioned a new slogan for a shirt. Hammer and screw driver and a bolt logo, "tappy tappy tap" just a thought for a new shirt and/or hat. Thanks for the vids and all u do ray
