What's the best tool box you can buy for the money? What is a good beginner tool box?
Learn how Craftsman Tool Boxes are Made from start to finish in the USA! In this video we get a shipment of steel coils then cut the steel so it can be pressed into the shapes for a drawer and for the tool box itself. Then the metal is welded together to create the main structure of the box and each individual drawers. Finally the box and drawers goes to paint which uses an electrophoresis coating which is better than powder coating. And then on the final assembly line, the drawers are mounted into the box and it's all packaged and shipped out to a store near you.

The Turbo Del Sol project has been abandoned for years but now it's time to get her off jack stands and take her out of the storage unit and get her back on the road. In this video I show you how to remove odors from your car after a flood, fix a bad fuel pump, fix seized drum brakes, and then we take the car to the drag strip and dyno to put down some numbers before adding the turbocharger.

My friend had her catalytic converter stolen overnight in the apartment complex parking lot. I got a quote from the dealer for a new oem catalytic converter but it was around $3900 which was more expensive than the value of the car. Since her state has emissions every 2 years I got an inexpensive cat that will work in the meantime. So here is how to replace a stolen cat. This repair has gotten her passed emissions, the exhaust doesnt smell, and the car is now usable saving her around $3700. I would say that is a win!

Learn how to hard wire a dash camera and rear camera in your car or truck. All modern cars have airbags and many people run the power wires to the dash camera incorrectly which can be dangerous. In this video I show you how to hardwire a dash camera in a truck and do a clean install using the factory cigarette lighter adapter in a car so all of the wires are hidden. You can use this video to install any brand of dash camera but in this case I am using the Vantrue E1 and Vantrue N4 Pro with a rear camera and cabin facing camera.

This collaboration with @kalebbrokaw was so amazing I had to share! Some amazing cars at SEMA including @tjhunt_'s widebody BMW which took a ton of work to get that perfect, the widebody twin turbo v8 DeLorean which will get you up to 88mph real fast, the green R34 GTR, a nicely done blue e46 M3, and a green Ferrari F40.

Learn how to replace axle seals on a solid rear axle that is leaking gear oil. You will know the axle seals are bad because gear oil will drip down the tires and sling everywhere. Luckily with this video you can see the process of replacing the axle seals. First you need to drain the differential. Next you need to unscrew the 4 nuts holding in the axle. Then you need to use a slide hammer to pop the axle out and now you have access to the seal. Use a seal puller tool to pop the seal out and then drive the new one in with a large socket or a seal driver tool. Now would be a good time to replace the rear wheel bearing as well and to do that you need to cut the bearing in half to remove it and then use a pipe with a hammer (or a hydraulic press) to press the new one on.
