To me it is not about Ron's shop methods, we all have our own pet proceduers and methods. If it works without causeing damage it was a good methodmaybe not the best but it worked.
My beef would be with asking Ron not to promote their product because he was not properly trained!!!????
If their own guys in their video were properly trained I am not shure I would want the training.
Those 2 morons barely knew which way was up. Nevermind the proper use of a tool.
The milwakee video looked like something my gran daughter would make, she is all of 10.

Yeah I'm with you on the Milwaukee issue. I just had to chime in because everyone loves Ron and I wanted to at least give my opinion on some stuff I saw,,, if I didn't mention them,,, then lurkers on here will think we all do it like he showed. I've changed a bunch of y pipes,, but I'm not sure if hitting the clamp even affects the joints. Just throwing my opinion out there. Hope you all aren't mad at me. We are a group that pays attention to details,,, and I was just keeping that trend.

I just watched a bit of it and,,,, well,,, I have a list of better ways to do some of it. Like the turbo clamps,, I wouldn't recommend beating on the clamp with a prybar. Unless you want to change the y pipe sooner than needed (have you seen how thin the flex joint is?) I use a long snap on push pin puller (about 2' long) with a little bend by the tip and it fits between the clamp and the flange and twist. The only thing that moves this way is the clamp. It works much better that the way I used to do it,, which was a 1 second hit with a cheap air hammer (I have a long barrel Mac one that is too strong).
One more thing...kudos to his wife for helping out, filming probably for hours to get the final result.
She deserves some credit too.

How about when he used his hammer to pound out the oil cooler from the casting? Ouch, I kept waiting to see him miss and crack the housing. Nope, never did.
