Awesome video

I've got an ancient Blackhawk Porto Power 4 Ton that I've rebuilt the pump once and a ram twice. It's at least 70 years old and still works perfect. I don't do auto body any more but I got the chance to use it again when my car was rear ended on Christmas Eve. A junkyard trunk, a few hours with the porto power and some hammers and it was ready for paint in two days. I agree with you in not knowing how people in the trade get by without them. I used it almost daily for over 20 years. Great video

I'm very impressed with the strength of the bond, in the past i wouldnt have even considered a bonded repair. You sir have managed to change my mind. Which is a good thing as it gives me another option. Well done and thank you for the demo.

Appreciate the tips here

Excellent video series! It is enjoyable to watch you explain in simple terms how to use these tools. I just watched your other videos on the pogo stick and the monkey on a stick. I have a question for you. I am trying to fix some damage on the occupant compartment of my project Porsche 944. It must have been in an accident at one time and the front part near where the left foot goes is pushed in and the floor is bumped up as a result. What tools would you recommend to pull or push to bring it back into shape and where would you push or pull from that would be strong enough to not create problems? I can send you a picture if it helps. I am just a hobbyist, but I would like to understand the thought process and identify what tools I would need to make such a repair. Thanks for your help!

Aaaah nice trick on the opening jaws never seen that one

I have a porta power from Canadian Tire, it's likely not as quality as your set up but seems better than the Princess Auto/harbor freight units. Got me outta lots of jambs, and saved a few truck bumpers also

I’m looking for a method to straighten a couple of misaligned masts- mounting locations for a John deer box blade, Poorly designed so they bent moving dirt around. Dealer wants close to $700 to replace 2 metal plates, So I considered buying a cheaper system like this to straighten it out. Some tight areas & some areas , where I’m not sure what I can push against, But even if I spend a few hundred bucks - I’ll still be ahead.

They have discontinued the Porta Ferguson Line of tools this year and that chain puller would be handy

It came with the porta power when I bought it in ‘78. As far as I know it’s been discontinued. Thanks for watching

A lot of intonation there. It was a little long but good. Thanks

Is there an attachment that would pinch a kinked edge and make it flat?

@autobodytrainingsolutions838

3 ай бұрын

Not for a porta power. I’ve use a wide pinch weld frame clamp to do that or I’ve used a couple pieces of heavy angle iron and a bunch of c clamps to flatten them out. Thanks for watching

excellent explanation- thanks

Would you use this method to pull a frame rail 1 inch?

@autobodytrainingsolutions838

4 ай бұрын

Probably not. If the rail is an inch out of specs, it will probably need more power to repair it than a porta power will put out. Also if you push or pull one rail against the other it will move both. Thanks for watching

@autobodytrainingsolutions838

Жыл бұрын

That’s a tough one. If you have a heavy beam or support overhead you could block the vehicle under the cowl and push down with a jack but that may want to lift the rear of the vehicle. If you can anchor the front rail down somehow then you could jack up under the cowl. Other that that it’s tough to do without any equipment. Sorry I couldn’t be more help.
