I've never noticed clean mineral spirits leaving an oily film on parts. That said, the spirits in your parts washer recirculates, so it's actually spirits mixed with oil and dissolved grease from those parts you've washed previously, whereas the brake cleaner is always fresh and uncontaminated. But in the end it's the same result – the spirits cleans off the vast majority of the crud, and the brake cleaner finishes off the cleaning process so the paint can adhere. 🙂

Eric why not use a wire wheel instead?

I have a 99 OBS Tahoe that is the GMT400 … Are they listed only until 98 to not confuse many people since 99 especially for the Tahoe was a dual body year?

18:15 Just buy new sleeves man!

[Chris Jacobs]

More brake cleaner!!!! MORE!!!

[Phil P.]

Eric. Use a power washer.

When you're scrubbing your hole with a wire brush, you know you need to change your diet.

[Simon Andersson]

What kind of grease are you usig for the poly bushings and is it important to use couse i didt use any

[Sakeenah Auto Solutions]

So no Darth Vader comment…ok

[Rock Forehead]

31:00 I have had good luck taking a drill bits around the inner sleeve. Drill multiple times and then lube the sleeve. Good luck, highway stars!

[witnesszer0]

if you buy the sleeve you can install all the parts new and hold it to the old one for perfect reference i highly suggest it

[Fadi Koka]

I don’t like those bushings they make squeezing noise after couple of months they needs to be greased again

[john smith]

[rvburbank1]

I used to pop those ball joints out with a well placed smack from a ball peen hammer. They flew out haha

[photondebuger45]

[Trey Sleeper]

What happened to the ceiling in the shop? Nice video as usual!

[Alex M]

Eric, you need some pipe wrenches to take those tie-rods apart.

[James Hall]

this was like watching a bad prono, with all that pounding, hammering, and synthetic lube. all it needed was some cheesy music

[Robert Wilson]

are we just ignoring the brake clean bath… hahah been there done that

[Lucas Thompson]

"I see a red door. And I'm about to paint it black"
Heckin yeah Eric!!!!

When i did the poly bushing replacement on the rear UCA, i found a thread somewhere that said to use a hole saw just smaller than the hole to cut the rubber out and then follow up with a wire wheel to clean the bore the rest of the way. Worked great.
