    Scotty Kilmer scotty its a brand called grip tight and a brand called gator grip socket and wrenches that is very similiar to it, and craftsmans got a brand that similiar too and u dont have to turn a bolt with a screwdriver and pliers to torque it on and take it off, try one of these and make a video and tell me what u think.

    Scotty Kilmer Hi my name is Ralph I was watching this video, I am trying to find the way to remove a rounded oxygen sensor long short story a new customer call me today (mobile mechanic )since he took the car to a certified mechanic shop and charge him $700 dollars to change the sensors and try to change the o2 sensors and guess what the mechanic told the customer the sensors were replaced but the problem still persists and guess what the super duper master knuckle head mechanic round the sensors and still the same old ones in the cars. Oh by the way the customer's son found about the scam before the came to me and he is only 13 years old how about that. So customer told me the long story . I couldn't believe it how some mechanics have the nuts to do that . But the best part is I have little to no room to work is a Nissan frontier 2002 v6 so the downstream sensors are burried between the cats and tranny I could only and maybe fit a pair of pliers to try. I hope everything is ok and have a blessed day .

    I just got back from taking my car to the mechanics because my AWD and ABS disabled and they said I needed a new wheel hub sensor on drivers side. I wasn't feeling to upto the job so I asked how much it would be, they told me $255 for the part and About $400 for labor. I got out of there ASAP I later went and bought the part for $65 and did it myself in about an hour and a half! They also told me my power steering was leaking and to replace something ( I forgot what ) they wanted $1200 for just that job!!!!! So now to change steering rack and pinion seals :/ but thanks for your informative videos! They have helped me find easy ways to do hard things.
