It is! I invested in a mid-rise scissor lift after I dropped my Mercedes CLS55 from a floor jack. Fortunately, I wasn't under it, else I would not have been here anymore. That shook me up good & stopped wrenching until I bought a stable platform.

If you have the room, please invest in such a tool if you regularly work on your car. It is much safer and also way more easy on your back

Would love to, but have a 2 car garage and two cars !
Should have built a cutout in the garage concrete to be able to add one later on, but never thought about it.....

@Michael_LeonV I almost bought Quickjacks, but went with a more stable & bigger solution. The Quickjacks are versatile and a more "mobile" solution.

Huh ? What was copyright in it ?

 

[tracktoy]

Probably the music

@Michael_LeonV / @tracktoy I forgot I am a commercial channel now with over 1000 subscribers So I cant just use a copyright free song and put some credits in. You actually need to buy a license.

I will probably do voiceovers instead of the typed text. What do you think about this?

 

[tracktoy]

All good with me, will you do it in English or Dutch (just our of curiosity as the pictures will show me what I need to know)

Reposted with voiceover, now to get used to my own voice on video haha This is the first video with a voiceover, lets just roll with it, this way I also cant get copyright striked

 

[tracktoy]

Works good for me and as you say no more issues.

Keep up the good work, its much appreciated

 

[nd-photo.nl]

Thanks man! Plenty more to come

@Mo_86 I checked a random interview from Max and immediately checked my video and I laughed straightaway hahah

Seems I need to rename my channel to something like: POV car repairs by Maks Verstahpen

On a FWD car, one of the best handling mods is to upgrade the rear sway bar (ARB) or add one if your car doesn't even have one. On my 1M, i added a 24mm Whiteline, which made a HUGE difference in cornering abilities.

So I bought this H&R 25mm Beefy Boi, partnr: 33851HA5 . Very well made and looks like a quality bit of kit

Thumbsize for scale

It was quite a struggle (putting it lightly) to get the new one in.

This is how stock vs upgrade looks. Notice the difference in shape (foreshadowing....)

You can see the difference already

22mm for stock

Almost 26mm for the H&R

And then I found out it didn't clear the exhaust So I had to snake it out again and mount the stock one. If anyone knows a good upgrade bar for the ST, let me know!
