TRAILBLAZER Front Ball Joints & Bearing - Part 1 - Inspection and Tear Down - Auto Repair
Channel: HouseCallAutoRepair

INSPECTION AND TEAR-DOWN:
 In this video I demonstrate inspecting the front end of a trailblazer that came to me with a loaded parts cannon. Before lighting the fuse, I take the time to VERIFY the targets. I find that some were false targets, and new targets are discovered.
 Follow along as I completely remove the front Driver's side steering knuckle, in preparation for replacing ball joints and a front wheel bearing assembly. While inspecting, I find a few other things that can explain the "Clunking noise" the customer complained about, as well as an easily remedied surprise...

Auto repairs for the "Do-it-yourself" mechanic...  These are "HOW-TO" videos, that show viewers details of what is involved in a specific repair... some do's and don'ts, as well as a variety of tips to make the repair easier.  Warning: Some videos may contain material that qualifies as "other than normally accepted".

 I do most, if not all repairs, with tools that I carry around in my overloaded 1997 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. I perform "On-Site" braking and suspension repairs, amongst other diagnostics and services. My tools consist mostly of Craftsman, a few Stanley, Snap-On, Husky, Pittsburgh, and S&K tools. Scan tools include hand held Actron(s) DVOMs, and test lights. I also currently use a Zurich ZR Pro, for advanced and bidirectional diagnostics as well as a Snap-On Verus Pro, for more detailed diagnostics.  I'm always expanding my collection, based on need and convenience.
