Back to Part 1- Full Feature Video: Towed In! Grinding and Banging! Broke in Half! Chrysler 3.6
https://youtu.be/R0TnqCEMI5g
All i saw was a bunch of grease
I forgot yesterday to asked you about the Chrysler and what’s happened to her…
Yep! It's a proven fact that the radio can cover any unfamiliar noises a vehicle can produce!!😂
I intentionally drove a CV joint to failure on my '00 Grand Cherokee. I figured, it's bad now, and breaking won't make it badder! Turning one day and it had enough and just snapped! Easy replacement.
great video and weell described Ray
u joint rotation speed = axle speed x cosine theta
There may not be a core refund, but I bet you could have cleaned the axels and sold them on Ebay, sold as parts only. LOL
This is a very common problem with the Chrysler products . As a Post Office mechanic , we saw this often .
It was interesting to watch you work on the vehicle in tandem which included helping each other as needed. It's a first and liked watching something new.
Ray keep the videos long great content and information.
YouTube algorithm took me to Ray’s Off Road channel.
You can’t cut down on the video time when you are showing us basic operations like paint drying.
🎉 😄 👍 👌
I really enjoy your videos. I have a Town & Country with a 3.6, and after watching your video on an oil filter adaptor a while back I decided as much time as I spend driving hundreds of miles at a time I should make that change to my engine. I was not the first person to change the part and most of the adaptor screw heads were rounded off. I rounded one off myself because they are very soft aluminum. When the thermostate went South I also replaced it with an aluminum part. When I purchased the van there was a vibration at 65 MPH that was the right drive axle. I replaced the axles (both), struts and rear shocks, sway bar links and bushings. All at 100,000 miles. I have learned a bit watching your shows and will continue to do so in the future.
Are you going to tell me this owner didn't hear that???? No blame on anyone but the owner. Lack of maintenance will always get you stuck
Hard to beleive no core on those anymore just scrap now
The tyme length is fine Ray. Giving a unique almost complete repair with a tried method is very very very helpful to all DIY'ers. Sum channels tend skip very important steps
The SPEED of the unit does not change, but the velocity of some of the parts do. Velocity is speed and DIRECTION. Speed is just distance over a specified time period. A change in velocity is acceleration or de-acceleration. The average acceleration is constant however, in a relative sense. If that were NOT the case, the part would fail, which it did!!
Imagine an object, like the moon, orbiting the Earth. [The speed of the moon does not change, actually it does, because it is not a perfectly circular orbit]. The acceleration is actually constant, as is the speed of the moon, but the direction is constantly changing. [The moon is orbiting at a constant radius from the center of the Earth]. This is called centripetal acceleration.
People are used to linear acceleration, such as a car accelerating down a straight road. Or conversely, a vehicle slowing down on a straight road. So the fancy stuff can play with your head.
Just keep in mind that speed, velocity, and acceleration are three different, but related things. Trust the math, use the right formulas, and you are good to go.
Defacto, it is quite simple really. Except it is a bit of a lie. Time and space are deeply entwined. So much so that scientists call it "space-time". We are used to only travelling slowly. The speed of light is ~ 299792 kilometers per second, or ~186,000 miles per second for 'Merica. Remember that there are 3,600 seconds in an hour.
NASA's Parker solar probe is clocking about 692,000 kilometers per HOUR [394,736 miles per HOUR], which is quite slow compared to the speed of light. [ 692,000 divided by 3,600 is only just over 192 kilometers/second. Nevertheless, you have to take Einstein's relativistic effects into account for a lot of things.
For every day stuff, all speeds are quite low, compared to the speed of light, so most times you can ignore Einstein relativity in calculations. So classical mechanics is more of an approximation than a lie. No one has personally experienced Relativistic Mechanics or Quantum Mechanics, so of course, we think all this is weird.
Quantum particles are WAY smaller than an invisible bacterium, so we don't understand intuitively what things look like at that scale. And since only particles without mass [like photons] can travel at the speed of light, we can't understand that with our guts/intuition either. So we trust the math.
Now that I have bored you and/or freaked you out, the centripetal acceleration of classical mechanics does not seem that bad, does it? 🙂
Quiz. If two space-ships were both travelling at 99% of the speed of light towards one another , what is their speed of closure? In classical mechanics, two cars straight on a collision course, each travelling at 30 miles per hour each, would mean a collision speed of 60 miles per hour. [Simple addition]. For our two hypothetical space ships, intuition would urge us to answer:- "Nearly twice the speed of light!" And it would be wrong.
I'm not concerned with the time of video as long as I'm learning something
You explained it well sir! That joint is a Rzeppa style cv named so because that was the inventing engineer’s name. I think he worked at Ford??? The failure witnessed in your repair is exactly one of the shortcomings in this design. The other is the torn boot you showed on the other shaft. Nonetheless it’s a great sturdy design. Long live Rzeppa!
I think your times have expanded because you are taking on more complex jobs. Keep up the great work!
came for the occasional Kermit the Frog impersonation
I've wondered for a long time why they're called "constant velocity". Thanks.
I wondered how those things worked. Thanks for the post mortem. 👍
Liked
I remember many years ago witnessing an outer CV self destruct while I was walking along road. I helped the owner pick up the pieces as he only had one arm.
I prefer your longer videos Ray lots of education and fun involved
The lack of brake clean in this video is truly shocking!
Thank You for the video Ray. I hope you get the additional 1,400 Subscribers soon so you'll receive another YouTube "Play button." 👍
I absolutely love the longer videos. You give so much information on what to do and what not to do. Thanks for sharing your wisdom of cars.
I had a cv axle blow apart on me once, but it was quite a bit older than that one. It was in a 1973 Oldsmobile Toronado.
Length is better than short time lapsed videos
Why do I not get notifications on some of your videos? So annoying.
Wonder how long they listened to it grind before it gave out? But then my wife almost did the same thing with her Fiesta before I drove it one day and caught it.🤦
$47 Bucks for a T-Shirt with shipping sorry that's out of my Budget.
Back in the day, it was common place for us mechanics to rebuild CV axles. 👍
Love the Chrysler video. Watched the autopsy video too. Blew my mind that it was the axle and not the transmission. Short or long. I enjoy your videos. ❤😊
It's so toxic in the state of Kalifornia it causes cancer of the eyeballs if you even look at it!! Prop 65 says so, so it must be true!!
Actually that was a good explanation of why a traditional u-joint makes a 4wd vehicles front end surge when the wheel is turned too far away from center. Nice to see a cv joint internals. I is now a little bit smarter 🙃
destroy ..NO …investigate YES.
Older VW's had rebuildable CV joints shafts. New joints came with new boots and a tube of moly grease. They were just bolted in place. The failure I had were the balls split in half. Good autopsy of these joints. Keep up your videos.
Whats the reason for changing axels instead of just swapping out the cv joint? Ive always just replaced cv joints cos there a fraction of the price of a driveshaft….Worth getting covered in grease sometimes
There I subscribe this channel too so I won’t missed the bonus parts.I enjoyed your contents keep up the good work👍🏼.
Here's a clue pal – stop talking as much & do what you have to do & maybe you can make shorter videos. We watch these videos to see the damage caused, not you gibbering on all the time!
But I enjoy the longer videos. Regardless it was only right to replace both axels. Just cleaning, regreasing and replacing the torn boot wouldn’t have solved the inherent issue of fatigue.
too many burnouts , these hot rod guys , need to respect there machines .
Cage snapped.
Long time subscriber here. Rays vids are entertainment and educational. I love it! My best to Ray and his family along with continued success!
My cv broke when backing out and got it fixed. yeah i always wondered why the cv axel are like this or made this way. Thanks for the info.
It's easy Ray e=mc2 anD LxW%H= it's broken
