Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Nate McCullough on behalf of Expert Village. In these clips we're going to talk about the proper way to remove and replace a front wheel drive vehicle's valve joint. In this clip we're going to talk about the proper way to remove your vehicles lug nuts and the wheel entire assembly. Being that it's front wheel drive you just can't spin the tire and get them off so you're going to have to actually do the work. If you can see it's not a huge job, I'm just using my index finger to spin my lug wrench. You're going to want to hang on to these being that we're not replacing them. Trusty magnetic tray, there we go. Once you have all your lug nuts off you may see that that the wheel is ceased up to the stud and hub assembly. It's pretty common on aluminum style rims. You can see this is a Billet aluminum rim. You may have to, you can't just remove the tire, and you may have to hold onto it, give it a good strike or maybe a good kick. As you can see the corrosion hat I'm talking about is inside here. You see how they kind of rust together. Here and here. That's the proper way to remove your vehicles tire."
