Backyard Corolla Frame Straightening
This video covers a attempt to straighten the frame on a wrecked Corolla. The method used is crude(eyeball only) and nobody should attempt this. The car is a hooptie anyway so it can't get much worse.

Replacing Rear Brake Drums and Pads on a 2000 Toyota Corolla
This is not really a tutorial since this is the ONLY time I've ever done this! So work on your brakes at your own risk. I didn't really want to do the job myself at first. I wanted to pay someone else to do it, but the 2 or 3 people I took it to could never fix the squeak, so I had to take matters into my own hands -- or go crazy! This video is a test of my Flip Cam, which is pretty good except for close-ups. I never added a voiceover or soundtrack to this video as I had intended. If I had waited until I had completed that, then I'd never get this video uploaded! So here you go! As good as it gets. Additional pics are at http://photos.breakitandlearn.com/?page_id=199 On to the next project!

Rear Strut Removal And Installation
Tools needed proper fitting sockets and wrenches, Special Tool: Spring Compressor. This Im sure is not the best way to go about it, but it works if you don't have the proper tools like a bench and Vice (would have been nice). This is TRUE back yard mechanicin at its most down, dirty, and a lil ignorant. I don't know why this shakes so much, it did not do this before I encoded it.. Sorry. GOOD LUCK!

How to Replace Front Struts Part 1 - EricTheCarGuy
How to Replace Front Struts Part 1 - EricTheCarGuy Well I'm finally getting this one up for you, sorry. It's been a busy week and I just haven't had the time to finish this one up but here it is in all its glory. Yes, it is something besides a Honda, in fact it's a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am. I do work on other cars just not that often since I know Honda's and Acura's so well. I hope to do a broad range of videos covering a wide range of subjects so keep watching, eventually I'll get to your request. For now enjoy this video and if you use the spring compressors I did in this video be careful, like I said in the video I've seen people get hurt doing this do take it seriously.
