This video is (Part 2) of a series I’m doing with my 2003 Honda Pilot. This series covers the reconditioning of the front suspension, engine, transmission, and subframe on this vehicle. In this installment I cover the replacement of the front wheel bearings, front struts, inner CV boots, front brakes, and cleaning and painting of the remaining components. I also cover engine washing and stud replacement.

  1. I gotta question if anyone can help the struts on my car make a lot of noise when compressed my cars 17 years old probably original struts but when I hit bumps they make a sound like a turbo car best I can describe the sound. No leaks car sits level on all four corners just not silent are the starting to ware out or are they still fine.

  2. Rats! Just an occasional DIYer here that just did pads & rotors and wheel bearings
    & seals (while I had it all apart) on my truck, but never thought to use silicone lubricant
    on the slide pins. After packing the new bearings with Timken wheel bearing grease I
    continued using it to grease the slide pins.

  3. Hopefully you see this Eric, I watch a lot of videos and they’ve given me a lot of advisement on how to fix and handle stuff on my own 2004 CRV- I do auto body but dabble in some mechanic on my one cars. But my coolant temp sensor, my driver side lock switch isn’t working both aren’t working and I don’t know where I can’ start the troubleshooting some help would be appreciated if you have any ideas

  4. You seemed to be in an excellent mood, and the refresh/result was spot on 😀
    Just an alignment of the new parts and it's never been so good.
    Ok when it was new it was nearly as good as your work ha ha 😀
    That gravity race removal tool seems obvious, but clever ideas always do.

  5. Paper trick alone made this worth the price of admission. Just did sway bar links, lower arms, and steering links on an 07 Pilot. I really wish I had a lift in my garage because I know for a fact all my leak chasing is going to end at main seals because. Because.

    27:20 what is that tool/fastener removal technique? Always looking for more alternatives to easy-outs.

  6. I remember when I replaced the wheel studs on my dad's 04 Venture about five or six years ago. It was actually from one of your older videos, back in your previous shop, that I learned how to remove and replace them. A nice stroll down memory lane.

  7. Eric,-love the way u work!! Liked u showed strut u had moved, loved u cleaned/painted dust shield/hub. EXACTLY what I would do. If u have it apart, DO IT RIGHT!! U ROCK AS USUAL! 🌲Happy Holidays! 🎅 It's gonna be a whole new vehicle. I live in PA so I KNOW u bust ur butt!!🖖

  8. Oh I've seen south main auto repair do something like that to remove the race. It's pretty neat. As a matter of fact, I just saw him do that on the video he posted today on a subaru wheel bearing replacement. Have you seen his channel? I don't watch his channel as much as yours, but I wanna say his name is also Eric lol.

  9. I must have missed previous mention of a supercharger. That should make for an interesting pilot. Lots of fun coming out of that strange start. Love that bearing tool!

  10. Eric that clicking tapping tool you have there do have link to it cause I need a better one I don't like mine where you just turn it back and forth

  11. Another great video, always look forward to Monday and Friday for new material. The formatting for step selection is GREAT !Love the new tool ( race remover ) . Question does this require acetylene or can you a map torch ?
    BTW – the rolled abrasive you used is called Emery cloth.

  12. I don't use silicone paste on brake caliper slide pins. I use KY and my 15 yrs old car stops better then when new🤪

  13. I completely understand your appreciation for that cart. There is nothing better than a truly effective tool, especially when you're doing physically demanding work.
