Thankyou very much Sir..Very good explanation and tools we need..With a fluent english..Merci...Watching from France

PS: My new Milwakee high torq gun really helped out on this job. I left my torq wrench in the basement and i slammed that axle nut and lug nuts back on with the Milwakkee. They are super tight and no damage.

1:50 Iuse 3 lbs sledge hammer on the impact , the Phillips bit is #3

I appreciate the amount of work and knowledge you inject into these videos. Thanks. All the best for the festive season.

New Milwakkee high torq, part number 296t. (its heavy as hell and its a beast.

I like the stye that you present these projects, methodical, stepwise, mentioning tools and size used, and your presentation is great. Wishing you continued success, really enjoy your videos. I prefer the Toyota truck vids personally, but I have come to watch everything you put out and enjoy them all. Thanks 1M

Do yourself a huge favor and Fluid Film the car before each winter. Get the underside, as well as inside of the body panels. Here's a couple how-to videos: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oK6L2pVmabOxhJs.html and kzread.info/dash/bejne/rIOCt5upmczFe6g.html

Definitely! I've been doing that to my truck, and will do it with this Fit too. That's why I took so long to find one rust free. Thanks

I wish I had a dime for every time I missed the catch pan...

What Brand of axles did you buy? Can you post a link? And how are they working out? Very well done video. Thanks.

They were just some cheap replacements I found on ebay. So far so good! Just be sure when searching that they are for auto or manual, depending on your transmission.

Put the open end of the clip at 12 oclock.....straight up......b4 sliding in the axle...........Z

GOOD NEWS. THE 2013 HONDA FIT HAS BEEN REPAIRED. New wheel bearing, new lower control arm, new Tie rod end, new CV axle, new brake caliper. This job is now complete.

Measure the length of the splines to see if they’re the same as the ones you removed. If so, then give it a good tap with big hammer and wood block.

The aftermarket axle was 1 inch shorter. It made no difference. Banging on it with a hammer and block of wood is useless. I pulled the axle back out a little and rotated it and shoved it back and and it popped right on in like gravy. @@6thGearGarage
