At last! How effing refreshing to watch a real person/yootoober who says it nice and straight re negative comments etc. None of us are forced to watch, and if you don't like it, jog on and click on something else! I don't have a TV now. Got fed up with spending £100s a year for licences etc only to be presented with bilge such as I'm A Desperate British Got No Talent Celebrity/Attention Seeking Wannabe Who Can't Dance, Has No X Factor, Voice, Charisma And Wants To Get Out Of Big Brothers House blah yada. I prefer to watch real people doing real things whilst educating and entertaining us...... I was an HGV driver from 1990-2018, and for 9 years was an owner driver, although I always pulled other companies trailers. People like Chris kept my wheels turning throughout, which was always hugely appreciated. This is my first visit to the channel, and it won't be the last. Cheers.
I have been a car mechanic for almost 30years and I find these videos fantastic because I know nothing about trucks or trailer’s but it looks heavy and hard work. Best video’s on KZhead 🍺
👍😁 cheers Damian even my account looks at them mate 😂 all the best mate 🍻
Me and my daughter were watching a documentary about bird strikes on aircraft. She said 'why would the birds being on strike cause a plane to crash'. Just thought I'd share that.
Idk man, it seems like you do quality work to me. Obviously you have to keep the train moving without fucking around. If it wasn't quality, you would have to go back and fix your work all the time. You work hard for your family and you seem to find time to record it which is impressive. Very skilled.
It's great watching you Chris your whit and humour makes any job you do worth watching. You always brighten up my day. Top man thankyou.keep them coming.
Don't worry about what people think mate, you keep doing what you are doing mate making memories ❤
What you’ve got to remember mate is that even if God posted a perfect 30 minute video some prick would have a moan about it. Some people are full time moaners and they genuinely get a buzz from bringing others down. 99% of comments I see are people same as me who just like the stuff you post. Keep it up and never change 👍.
In 1 comment you’ve managed to describe 95% of the U.K population 👍🇬🇧
Professional strugglers we are matey. I work on trucks and trailers or Lorries in New Zealand. Just spend heaps on my time pulling a sized bearing on the SAF axle, yep designing a puller because the customer doesn't want to spend the money on a new hub and bearings but needs to get the drum off to replace the linings. Great video btw, keep up the good work, there's lots of strugglers out there too.
collected a few of them sdc trailers around 2003-4 from bradder st in mansfield,you just done a masterclass in wheel bearings lad,geat stuff keep the language lad i love the craic its like being stood in front o the salamander in the garage at the end of the day listening to the fitters
Brilliant videos it’s good to see real people on KZhead that tell it as it is
Life has no frills Lee 🤣 it’s a struggle mate. Thanks for the comment pal and cheers for watching 👍
Best thing to do with people who moan about you is just completely ignore them, don't reply to them and don't even comment on them. They will soon move onto another channel to see if they can get a rise out of someone else. Keep up the good work Chris.
chris we love your channel so that bloke that says there is nothing for him sounds like a troll,every thing you do is educational keep it up and ignore the moaners
Just scroll up, ha excellent!! Always enjoy the videos just the way they are mate, no pretense, no BS just good honest struggling.
Chris wish ide an ounce of your energy and character. Legend. The world's upside down backwards,,your skill and experience should be fecking well paid for .
you are spot on i have mechanic ing for 51 years and that is what we are is strugglers

We dont make each other’s life’s easier Chris.. I thought you was a professional struggler 🤣🤣👌👍 keep doing what your doing don’t change one bit contents great mate.. you tube gold this channel.. 👍👊
Fitters at the bus company use a plastic Cataloy spatula for the grease Chris.
I did a set of rear shoes and drums last night on an old 55 reg Scania. Both of the drums were seized on solid, to the point where all the jacking points either stripped out, or cracked open the drum. I had to sledge hammer them off, whilst my mate had a crow bar and scaffold tube behind the spigot. I thought to myself "I'm a professional struggler tonight". Keep up the good work mate.
Hi Chris all I can say is keep them videos coming. And in life you should never ever have to explain yourself to no one. Top tip on how to pack a bearing with grease too. 👍
Chris rise above the armchair experts your subs are going through the roof because the channel is great with great content don't change anything we all love it cheers mate

You can't please everyone on your tube . Your not the first person to say it. Just keep doing what your doing . And sod the ones that don't like it. Your doing a grand job 👏
Love it mate. Someone who aint afraid to lose one or two idiots telling you what to do. Keep it up Chris. You are brilliant.
Haha gotta love those people who tell ya what ya should be doing on ya channel 😂, We get it all the time. I watch loads of ya vids, but never comment coz I know ya a busy lad 😂 stay safe! 👍
Keep these videos coming in a hgv mechanic to trade and every day is a school day I’ve learnt little tricks from watching your vids
Needed a 41mm deep impact socket to do a ball joint. Ordered it up, used it, went to put it in my socket drawer, right next to the 41mm socket I already had .
😂😂 can never have to many 41mm sockets
I’m not a qualified mechanic, but I work along with my brother and try to learn, I’m more interested in trucks and I enjoy the videos, very informative thank you.
Well said chris !! Woop Woop 30k subs 🎉🎉 much love from Dorset
Good explanation Chris.
Chris your content is great take no notice of the naysayers whoo whoo😂
There’s ya new T-Shirt Merch - Scroll the F up… 😏😁
Just subscribed to this chanel today . Stumbled on it by accident. I'm a dryer and washer technician and Home diy car mechanic. Different ball game but the thinking out the box is the same. Your a top guy love the videos
Funny how we focus on 1 negative comment but have 1000 positive comments , don’t feed them with a reply they ain’t worth your time . Cheers mate .
Love your presenting style, I had years of doing pretty much the same as you’re doing. The job went all to pot when the fancy electronics came in 🤬. Most breakdowns occur now because of crap electrics. Keep up the good work Chris 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great Video Chris, looking forward to seeing more, good to see real life worker explaining. exactly how its done, and not all that stuff about ticking boxes with a high vis jacket on, just getting on with it, and putting up with it starting to rain as well, tough work, but keep up the good work.
Top man chris I do love you channel top man
Spot on pal your channel bloody brilliant
Good honest graft, keep it up mate. Great content.
Deadly M keep2em coming I love watching these. 48 and still learning. Love the banter with you and everyone don't let the .......bring you down
Im Not even a lorry mechanic but enjoy your videos, keep up the good work chris
Great video Chris, ROR stands for Rubery Owen Rockwell, Rubery Owen is about 130 years old, started in Darlaston, Staffordshire. Factory that welded the spindles to the axles and built the axles was in Wrexham, now moved to Brazil; if anyone is interested. Nice job.
I was a hgv mechanic for a haulage company when ROR Was on llay industrial estate wrexham. We were located a few hundred yards away on the same road. All our trailers had ROR axles.
@@garethjones8047 I worked installing new equipment at JCB Transmission in 89 I think, was that nearby do you know.
@@bostedtap8399 Jcb is still there now, its about 5 miles from where ROR was, but nowhere near as good a place to work as it used to be.
@@garethjones8047 Good to hear, JCB Rocester, Uttoxeter is not well thought of as well, allegedly!, all the best from the Black Country.
@@bostedtap8399 All the best to you Pal, from North Wales
I’m learning loads from you and the comments! I’ll soon be a professional struggler
I enjoy watching your videos, thank you for posting them .
Been doing it for years that way Chris for washing machine bearings works a treat 👌
Interesting to see more modern vehicles than I worked on 150 years ago.
You'll be at 10k subs in a couple weeks at this rate. Rightly so. Channels a breath of fresh air. Get your mate to get the merch on the go and earn yourself so extra pennies.
Top answer from a top bloke. Keep doing what you do my friend. 👍
Chris i think your videos are fantastic my professional struggler dont know much about the mechanical side of H.G.V worked in them but watching your videos i learn a lot. If i was ever going to do what you do i would want you to teach me. Keep struggling and keep videos coming
Chris ignore the haters. I have Autism and I would love the chance to do a job like this. I'm going through hell being bullied bya neighbour who sees a weakness in me and Police won't touch her as she is a druggie. Watching ypur vids takes me away Thanks mate Ian in Alrewas near Burton on trent
Fair play to you mate .. I love watching your videos !! Always puts a smile on my face .. I have ms an had to give up work but hey ho I'm improveing so fingers crossed I can get back to work... Watching people like you makes me more determined !! Your personality is infectious in the good way lol ... Keep doing what you're doing fella 👌👍
Really enjoy these videos, nothing like honest work 👌🏻👌🏻
I have learnt a lot from your videos im not a mechanic but I find your video very interesting. Well done bud. 😃
Great video Chris
I was waiting for you to tell us about that twig! 🤣
I love learning
I want to see a vid on “packing away” in your clean tidy van 😂😂😂
Watching from Canada Chris, love all your videos, keep up the great work
Great Video Chris, just keep doing what your doing. Very entertaining to watch.
i learnt something 2day....packing the grease in to brgs
Great video Chris, hope your cash flow issue gets sorted pronto.
Love it… keep it up buddy
Great videos mate , A nice wee trick I use for removing the full wheel and hub assembly out in the field is to have an old Long Vehicle plate with a bit of oil on it just have the wheel sitting on it and no more and the wheel slides off easily. Definitely save your back mate .
GOOD TO C U SHOW YOUR LITTLE MOOSHS THE GAME ASWELL
Thoroughly enjoy the content mate. I'm a qualified maintenance fitter! dreaming of a job in the HGV game! Keep up the content mate! Jamie x

Nice technique using the old race to fit the new one I usually use a little brass bar and can be a pain getting it started sometimes
Chris don't worry about the now it alls I can't see them doing it love your videos thanks
Well done Chris you are the business
Interesting video Chris . Keep them coming 👍
Legend mate ! Grate videos grate content from a fellow professional struggler !!
It's not a mid life crisis unless you buy a boat or sports car ! (I'm looking for a boat), also can you teach us some tricks or hacks for easier welding ? Love watching your vids to see the way you do things, I used to be an agri mechanic. If only you and KZhead were around back then ! Keep em coming bud.
Your channel, your rules pal 🤪👌 Cleaned, changed and repacked a few bearings in my time too, proper lovely job mate haha I actually like doing the taper bearings tbf. Better than the pressed bearing types lol
Good on description on bearings, I have taught this type of stuff to aircraft landing wheel shops. Just for reference for tapered roller bearings outer races are called cups and inners are cones. Also its good to check the roller ends faces for scuffing and the rib for cracking. Recall that some planes which are turned too tightly would crack the ribs on the bearings.
Thanks home for that, cups and cones I shal make a mental note.....I’ve never had training! what I’ve told you there on that video is what I’ve picked up on over the years so it’s nice to here from someone has experience! Cheers home 👍
Hi Chris, for someone starting out in the trade you videos are brilliant. Carry on the way you are Anyone not happy sod em Regards Frank
Chris please put the guard back on your grinder and wear some specs, when grinder discs shatter they are lethal! The 1mm discs in particular are prone to breaking.
Don't know what you were watching. Where Chris was showing how to cut the decking plank fasteners the grinder HAD a guard on, as did the smaller grinder sitting on the deck, and Chris was wearing safety glasses.
@@ItAlwaysHasToBePerfect Yes, but I'm talking about removal of the mud guard.
Real tube !! Keep up the good work
Great content Chris , I really enjoy your videos,
Love the channel keep doing what you’re doing
Keep doing what your doing your a legend
