    I just did this yesterday with my 2007, guided by my Dad's expert advice (30+ years in machine maintenance). Nice to see that this video matched with his directions 100%.

    Wondering if this would apply to an 05 2WD Ranger? I'm assuming so. Thanks.

    Hello I have a question about a older video of yours from 10 months ago. The video is the Chevy silverado oil change you did. I was wondering since I bought one about a week ago and theres a bolt missing on the Oil pan I would assume? Its not the drain plug you took out in the video but the one close to it on the pan. I was wondering if thats a second oil drain plug I cant find anything about there being 2 Oil drain plugs but the one thats “Missing” is actually broke off inside. I just didnt know if thats a second drain plug or it goes to something else I dont want to attempt to fix the bolt until I know I have not changed My oil yet because of that bolt. Thank you.

    My abs sensor rubs the new rotor. Any idea what i did wrong?

    Probably the wrong rotor. There are rotors for the models with abs on all 4 wheels and other rotors for models with abs on only 2 wheels

    I just had rotor that the speed sensor disk on the back wasn't pressed on fully from the manufacturer. I carefully pressed it on fully and no more rubbing
