Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods and we're going to do some work for you on Expert Village. Well, they cleverly hide the brakes behind wheels so we have to remove all four wheels and tires first. Mark's using an impact gun because he's clever and lazy. If you were to take the wheels off while the car was on the ground, rather, if you're going to use manual tools, you'd want to loosen the lug nuts while the vehicle is sitting on all four tires safely on the ground. But because he's using the impact wrench, you don't need to have it on the ground. The impact gun can just rip the lug nuts off without a lot of weight on it."
