Auto Parts help on YouTube?

Posted by admin

I had someone looking to buy some videos for a car parts project they were working on. They wanted more than just a book walking them through it, they wanted to see it. I recommended the browse youtube. Try some variations on your search and you’re likely to find something useful there. Most of us are visual learners, so just watching a bit can go a long way towards making a project easier.

Believe it or not, there are some good videos out there. YouTube.com has everything from published professional videos to amatuer stuff. I would stick to ones that look legit, or are almost identical to what you are doing. Don’t be too trusting.

A few auto parts companies even publish some videos on YouTube. I found Car Parts Warehouse had some wheel hub videos. Discount AC Parts had some AC Compressor installation Videos and Turbochargerpros.com had some of their turbos videos there. Might be good to see some info on the parts before installation. Like mentioned earlier, just being able to see something and how it looks makes things easier.

Beyond YouTube there are other sites offering videos on installation. Many are free, but many are require subscription. If you really need help, then paying for it will save you in the long run.

Finding Swedish Parts

Posted by admin

Finding parts is often hard to do, especially if you are looking for unique parts. Well if you are looking for Volvo Parts or even Saab Parts we have a new supplier you should check out.

Our new supplier is Swedish Parts Network and you can check out SwedishParts.net for any parts you need there.

Its hard to find reliable suppliers of parts and I recommend you only use suppliers that have good people available on the phone. If you end up getting an overseas operator or wait forever then its time to move on to another supplier.
