6 years later, this is still good! No frills straight to the point not some millenial talking for 15 minutes about a damn clamp.
hit me like a thunderbolt...excellent simplicity...thats how they work!!!!!
Nice one, thanks, a super quick video but shows you everything you need to know :)
Exactly what I just needed for a CV Boot repair. Thanks for the quick video
Damn dude….I’ve been f’n around with these clamps for way too long!! Finally gave in and KZread’d it. Saved my ass today. Thanks. I’m having (another) beer for you !!!
It is even better when using pliers made for these type of clamps. The tool pushes the ear down while compressing it. Folding the ear down flat, making it less likely to loosen over time. Kudos for a short well made video.
Thanky ou PTW saved my cv boot job on my work vehicle and other cars. Also PTW is located in Melbourne Boronia ppl. Im ordering these ooetiker CRIMP clamps as we speak. Previously bought the basic double loop band clamps not crimp style from repco.. after i tried to do my cv boots i finally understand why at checkout the repco guy said ' i really wish u luck with these ' with a grin.. only these crimp style can handle the hard torque of wheel rotation day in day out. The basic bands kept leaking and if i tried to do it too tight the tabs will break. These type Crimp is the way to go. Im sure the repco ones do work but not suitable for my vehicle.
oh wow! 30 seconds of good work. Without trash talking. Good job!
Yup, just what I needed. Thanks for the vid.
Yes, finally a video that you can see
Perfectly presented.
No nonsense video. To the point!
BAMM....just what i NEEDED THANKS
Very good video
Thank you!
Thank you so much 🙌🏼
OMG so easy when you know how. Cheers.
Thank you 👍👌
Best video on youtube
But how do you remove it?
this is 😎 cool👍
Thank you
Looks clean and easy but when your under your car where there is very little room and space it that much harder
You could spray the boots and even all rubber / plastic parts underneath the vehicle with 303 Protectant to resist drying out and cracking .

Ty...shi like this is what makes it worth it to read the comments where all the pro tips are
Any way you can do this without the tool? I want to reboot my axle, and I don't want to buy a tool and use it twice and have it just laying there for the rest of time.
Where can I purchase these stretch ears?Pretty cool video. Thanks so much for the information.

New here, aren't they pre-installed with new cars?
Wow is it really that easy?

If it's the outer one you can do It with the axle removed from the vehicle. For the inner one it might sometimes be a pain in the ass to get good grip and access while the band keeps unclipping itself... my outer one was this easy, my inner one was a ridiculous battle
how to release this one?
Could you reuse it?
Why wasn't this video 7 minutes long in order to explain? Seems like everything on youtube is.....it's just like. COMEONE GET TO IT! :D Great job!
Not tight enough though? Two tools needed one to tighten band second for crimp.
where do you buy the clamps? can not find

special tool looks deceptively like my ceramic tile clipper
no one points out which direction of clamp, towards front or rear of car.
Balls I have these and I’ve just spent £12 on a clamp tool 😂
Video could’ve been way shorter 🙄

Bad idea.. You should use the proper tool not pincer..
This clamp unfortunately is a cheap Chinese knockoff of the original Oetiker clamp, and was designed to make it "universal". So the teeth are located on the top part and go down - straight into the rubber. The clamp is a horrible design, with the tension applied teeth start bending closer to 90 degree angle and create holes. Oetiker has teeth facing up, not down, and unfortunately is not universal because of the design. However it is about 10 times stronger compared to the one shown here
THAT IS THE WRONG TOOL FOR THE JOB!

That tool is designed specifically for the job. It even has a side clamping provision in the tool for clamping from a 90 degree angle if required. Maybe you are thinking the cheap tools made of plate steel are the correct or better tool?

@@DNAPaints NO. you are completely WRONG... the tool is missing the center crimp, that is required to do the job right. WRONG WRONG WRONG..... This is why the internet is completely full of BS! You and the people who make the video. IF you don't know for sure what the hell you are doing you have no business trying to tell others how to do anything. Hopefully, you and all the idiots that post shit like this will be kicked off the web for good.

@@vw4x4 You seem like a very angry and opinionated troll that relies on insults, name calling and the like to compensate for your insecurities. Perhaps you should vent somewhere else where someone may care and those of us that don't care for your unqualified advice don't have to endure your hatred of the world and people trying to make a go of it.

@@scott3519 Actually, while it's hard to know which position is closer to the current best practices.. Your comment was missing something important. An informed rebuttal with even a single counterpoint to the comment's claims. For example, is the center crimp important? etc. etc. Nor did you or anyone here frankly list your qualifications and experience in years or hours of training, etc. You may be correct, but because at least VV listed one detail he sure seemed to think was important.. and yours was only addressing hurt feelings and tone, your comment applies more to you than VV. Sorry. The only thing that helps your case is that you were second. If lives are at stake with a vehicle part.. being passionate when needed doesn't bother me one bit. Ego can be dented and die. Don't defend it. It's just a story we tell ourselves, about ourselves.. it's not who we are really. Dissenting opinions only hurt if you have tied an opinion to your personal identity or ego. This is religion if so.. and not flexible opinions bending to new data.. which is science.

@@tastingtoastgaming1590 Accepted you are correct on a number of points. I don't believe anyone in this discussion (as is often the case with social media) has stated any qualifications. No engineering qualifications or psychology for that matter. I guess my reply was reactive as I felt the initial comment was unqualified, emotional and attacking with no grounds for making the claim other than having a personal preference for doing it a certain way. Unfortunately, these kinds of comments are often posted by competitors. I actually find it strange myself when people post unsolicited comments and statements with little or no understanding or explanation. I apologise for my harsh personal comments, they were uncalled for. For the record, I have been a qualified automotive engineer for over 30 years and have worked specifically in automotive driveline industry for over 15 of those years as well as being a qualified automotive teacher. The tool and clamps demonstrated in the video are correct and fit for purpose. Lives are always at stake with vehicle repairs and maintenance, which makes it more unfortunate when a correct repair method is being demonstrated and it receives comments saying that it is not right.
