Follow a dad of 4 kids in the Riggs garage where we’ll build some cool and different cars on a budget, as well as visit other local builds and their creators to see the back alley stuff that’s often not seen. From antiques, hotrods, muscle and import, it’ll all show up here!

I work in the parts department at a dealership (not Honda) and this gave me a lot of confidence to do this all on my own and not have to bug anyone else for help. Thanks!
Good to hear! Glad you could get it done. Thanks for watching
Great low Tech innovation. Thank you!
Very Good Video!!!! 👍
Doesn't the glove box key fit the trunk? Couldn't you just get a key made from the glove box lock cylinder?
The glove box is missing. Good question
Is there a mini starter that will fit a 300 6 cylinder?
This actually shows me how much lazy people are 😂😂😂😂
?
Lazy shit 🤣😂🤣😂
I would have liked to have seen him put the belt back on, not leave that part out.
I had that same issue this video really helped a lot im finishing it up now. Had to come back to make sure I put it back on correctly. #DIYr
Good stuff, thanks for watching!
From the looks of the hood there was a small fire at somepoint?
It's some old grease or oil from a fail in the last 54 years
1.6 l VTEC
Currently doing this outside Dominoes after my shift had 5 minutes left at harbor freight to buy special funnel. Thanks for vid and thanks for saving another Honda 😀
I hope it went well, keep it on the road!
Thank you. I’m gathering parts for my 67 t5 swap and appreciate your info.😎👍
No problem, let me know if you have questions
Spray all similar rubber components with 303 Protectant to resist drying out and cracking .
That's a good idea
@@RiggsGarage Yes , and after power washing my engine compartment . I will liberally spray it all over and let it soak in , keeps rubber and plastic looking new .
Still refer to this video for assistance and now I can replace it too 🔥
Haha 2nd time 🙏
Could get the bottom bolt off. Used wd-40 and nothing. Didn’t budge.
Gotta crank it, these cars are getting old and bolts are getting stuck
Got my testosterone flowin'!
Love it..the bumpers still show evidence of the torchwork where the shackle mounts are sittin' today
One of my favorite cars. Thank you for watching
This is the best video for this operation I found and I looked at at least half a dozen. I appreciated the tape in the socket suggestion, but couldn't figure out why the tape in my 15mm socket was not holding onto the nuts until I discovered the nuts on my old struts were 14mm and not 15mm; tape in the 14mm socket worked fine and the new struts did have 15mm nuts. I did not have a 22mm socket but 7/8" worked well. Thanks for the excellent descriptions of all aspects, although I did miss not having torque specs., but then I didn't find anyone who used a torque wrench to finish up. Even the "pro" mechanics just slapped things back together with an air gun and let it go at that. If someone is getting ready to do this job, look no further than this video - it is the best one out there. BTW the Torque I used was 116 foot pounds on the pinch bolt nuts, 55 foot pounds on the stabilizer link nut and 33 foot pounds on the three nuts on the top of the strut. I had to use a wire brush wheel on my drill to clean the threads of the stabilizer link studs before I could get the nuts off - BP Blaster was not enough.
I just got a 2007 odyssey that has this issue so I will try all of the solutions and see how it works out
With the help of your video, I was able to change out the struts on my 2010 Outback without any do-overs or cussing. Appreciated the comedy at the beginning, and nice to see the Royals hat (grew up in KC)!
Glad to help with the struts and a laugh. Go Royals!
Exelente video muchas gracias me ayudo mucho por eso me suscribo a tu canal y doy un like. Yo emberdad te recomiendo a mis amigos
Gracias!
thanks for sharing! i owned an used 2009 odyssey and i am getting tired on all the problems that its being giving me
Thank you. I'm on my second van of this generation and ready to punt it 😂
Looks pretty good, these newer style wheel are getting popular in the budget custom world because they are everywhere, people are buying them, refurbing them and then throwing a centercap or baby moons on them.
Thanks!! Just finished replacing mine and I have your video to thank for it.
nice to see it all came undone without issue on a car that looks in about the same state as my wifes old 2008 which has just been donated to my son and banging it cobblers off on the back end lol.....same setup as on my 2004 skoda octavia which was knocking exactly the same so hopefully full shock kit will fix it.....good vid!
Has anyone had the strut bust through the interior molding next to the taillight? The strut came off the ball. It is bent and stuck.
what was the time frame start to finish. . . . actual time. cause to me it looks like it would take 5 hours.
30 minutes or so, really depends on skill level and if you have the right tools
My AC is coming out hot and it headed up on me a couple times but has not headed up on me in days but hot air comes out and not cold?
I need pat number I buy the shock for odesey 2007
Bottom comment is correct
Why remove the radiator .just flex it slightly like in the rav 4 vid and the alt com s out
I didn't remove the radiator, are we talking about the same thing here?
I'm buying a super clean white eg hatch with d16y7 with z6 headers for $2500, or include a s300 ECU for another 800 for tuneability. I just pulled the following for $333: z6 head, wiring harness, intake manifold, IACV, and throttle botty (to sell), OEM Honda distributor, fuel rail, and exhaust manifold. Already had the same gasket (you have a gasket now you have to buy a car that uses the gasket!)
It was called a movable pole shoe. Current through the stator pulled the shoe down and then mechanical linkage pulled the starter drive gear into the flywheel teeth. It worked beautifully!
nice wagon
Thank you!
Todo estaba bien pero no calibro los frenos de atras al poner el.frdno de emergencia no ban a agarrar
Thanks man 👊🏼 I got it!
Good work!
Thank you for the video, changed my alternator with your instructions. Saved a boat load of labor costs. Watching this video gave me the confidence to do this myself.
Glad to hear. Thanks for watching!
After 3 Honda alternators, I also learned one of the causes for my van was the oil filter gasket which was throwing oil up into the alternator and frying it... would suggest ruling that out before just changing an alternator.
Smart, I think my current 2010 Odyssey van is actually doing this, great tip. Alternator is completely oil soaked and should fail at any minute. Probably on our 9-hour trip coming up 😂
Thank you so much
I have a set to remove bearings. The problem was, that the hole of the bushing is to small to fit the bar. But after using ur method, I could use the set and remove the rest of the bushing . THXs
Great video, on my 2002 acura el, I am loosing coolant from radiator going to reservoir container instead opposite. Is that thermostat. thx
Very clear and straight forward no nonsense video. Great job with it thanks!
Thank you!
Brilliant video, super helpful. All the wrench/socket sizes, clear audio at a steady level, and respectful of the viewer's time. I wish all repair videos were like this. One of the reviewers of the starter I bought said it was a relatively easy job thanks to watching a bunch of KZread videos beforehand. Thankfully this was the first one I found, no need to watch "a bunch". Thanks for this.
Great feedback, happy to help. I also like brief repair videos 👍
I did a simple cable clutch
Same What cable did you use?
And if the bubbles never stop and the expansion tank is all oily.... headgasket may be toast!
Yeahhh......😬
Absolutely great video. Thank you for posting.
Thank you!
How can I contact you brother good video nice upgrades lmk I’d really appreciate you trying to fix up my del sol lmk

What’s your instagram and do you still own your del sol what year is it?

Second post: I did the 78 Granada swap in 92, and its fine. Manual master, 78 combination valve. So basicly its a factory 78. Now have 71,000 on the car. I'm running factory Granada rotors. Slotted, drilled rotors and high performance pads are readily available today for improved braking. Got the entire brake system and 1" sway bar for $100 in '92. See my other post. Doing a swap on our 55 Victoria.
