Hey everyone, Dave Kass here with QA1, here to show you our C10 suspension

system. This chassis, we painted this white to really highlight and show the

components that we can help you with. If you have a two-wheel drive C10 or a GMC,

on the front we have here is we have an option to convert your truck to a full

coil over setup. So with the minimal modification you can take your truck,

bolt in an upper and lower control arm set up with a bracket that allows you to

go to a full coil-over. If you don't want to go all over, that's fine because we do

have an option for a traditional style drop spring, which is nice. On the

coil-over set up you have the option to go from your stock height all the way down

to about two and a half inches lower and then if you use a drop spindle you have

options to go all the way up to five inches. So this setup right now as it sits you're

sitting about five inches lower. Now it's a full tubular design on the control

arms. It gives you seven degrees of caster and the caster gain took your

truck from what was about one degree of caster, like mine had my 72 had for

instance, and brings it to seven. The drivability is greatly enhanced. So just

driving the truck is just so much more enjoyment with it. It handles much better.

Better straight line stability. You're not chasing the wheel as much as you once

were. So just that change alone by doing the upper and lower control arms just

major drivability enhancements. Not to mention when you pair it with a nice

shock and spring, like we have here with the QA1 setup, it just brings it into the

modern day age, which is awesome. Pair that with the QA1 sway bar and you

have a truck here now that's doing things a truck should not do while

riding as good as it does. Now this spindle that we designed the system to work

with is for your square body spindles. So your 73 to 87 spindles and

that's because your earlier trucks were mostly drum and there's some different

ball joint changes and whatnot. So most of the time if you're going to go forth and

do a nice suspension setup like this, you're gonna be going to a disc style

front brake setup. So if you're gonna be changing your brakes make sure you go to

a square body 73 to 87 spindle. Moving to the back what we have here is we have an

option to go with a full tubular style trailing arm with a really nice

integrated pinion angle adjustment so you can change your pinion angle

depending on what bride height you want. Or you have options to go with your

stock truck arm but still get the benefits of having a coil over. Now, all

of the coil-over systems, whether you do the stock truck arm or you do the full

tubular truck arm options, allow you to go to a full length panhard bar system.

As most of you know, these trucks came with a panhard bar that is about this long.

Truthfully it went from one frame rail to the pumpkin. It was really, really

short. And so, as such, when you lower these trucks down and you really throw

the car or the truck hard into a corner it can pull that axle off center. So

we've done there is we've made sure to address that issue and incorporated that

longer panhard bar right into the system right from the get-go. The coil-overs are

mounted on the outside of the frame rails, which is really important. So the

widest we could go while still allowing a big tire to be put on the back of these

vehicles, so that you have better stability as you get drive these trucks,

throw them into a corner, have fun with them. And also, we have an option for a

rear sway bar. So again, depending on how far you want to take your truck, if it's

going to be more of a driver, or if it's going to be more of a competitive type of setup

you do have those options. Now our full tubular version that we have here is

also really nice because we built into our upper bracket for the coil-over mount

an integrated C-notch. So, simple cut there in the frame and you have the

capability of going up to six inches lower than stock so you can really get

this truck down on the ground, get that wheel in the wheel well, where you want

it, and it's just a really nice setup. So it will work with the 12 bolt system

like you would traditionally have these trucks, it also does work with the nine

inches as long as you take your your truck arm saddle that's on your axle and

make sure that's relocated to the same spot. And one thing that's also really nice

is we built this system around a truck that had a rear-mounted gas tank. As most of

you know, these trucks right from the factory had the gas tank right behind

the seat. And for weight distribution, safety, and other reasons almost

everybody's me looking to move the tank towards the rear. And one of the nicest

features, all of this can be installed with the bed of the truck on. Now,

for display purposes, of course, the bed is not on this chassis, but for someone in their

garage on a Saturday afternoon, you don't have to go find four or five

people to help you lift the bed off, and find a place to store it. You can install

this system with the bed on it. So very very straightforward. Very, very easy to

do. And, you know, we took a lot of time and effort thinking about our packaging

to make this a system that you could bolt in your truck on a Saturday afternoon and

completely and totally change how it drives, rides, and handles. So, for more

information on this make sure to check out our website, QA1.net. Check out our

How To: Change Your Vehicle's Engine Oil - Duration: 3:50.

[Mechanical SFX]

Hey everybody.

John here from O'Reilly Auto Parts.

Today, I'll be showing you how to change your oil and oil filter.

This is a 2009 Honda Accord but you'll find that most vehicles are pretty similar to what

I'm about to show you.

As always, be aware of the manufacturer's specifications for your exact vehicle including

the proper amount and weight of oil for your vehicle.

If at any point you decide you're not completely comfortable doing the job yourself, come see

us and we can recommend a professional technician in your area.

So here we go.

Find a flat, stable surface where you can work.

Like a driveway or a garage.

And make sure the vehicle has had at least 15 to 20 minutes to cool.

Set the parking brake and then chock your rear wheels.

Use a jack and jack stands or ramps to raise the front of your vehicle.

Open the hood and locate the oil fill cap.

Remove that cap and set it aside.

Under the car, locate the oil drain plug.

Set a drain pan beneath the plug and remove the plug completely.

Set it someplace safe.

It's a good idea to replace your drain plug gasket.

Also, visually inspect the drain plug itself to make sure it's still in good shape.

If not, replace it as well.

Once the draining oil has slowed to a drip, clean and replace the drain plug.

If your plug includes a crush washer replace it with a new one.

Next, locate the oil filter and slide your drain pan underneath it.

Most conventional spin-on filters are easily accessed from underneath the vehicle but some

use a remote mount and are accessed in the engine compartment.

With a cartridge type filter like this one, we'll remove the cover and take the filer

out itself.

Spin-on filters like this one are removed as a unit using a filter wrench.

Loosen the oil filter with your socket or filter wrench.

Let the oil drain from the filter, into your drain pan.

Use a clean shop towel or lint-free cloth to wipe down the filter mounting area.

It's possible that there's some debris or part of the seal from the previous filter.

If you're installing a spin-on canister filter lubricate the seal before putting it on.

For cartridge type filters, you'll lubricate the o-ring and install it around the filter

cap.

Insert the new filter and tighten the cover to manufacturer's specifications.

Once your drain plug and filter are tightened properly, remove the drain pan from underneath

your vehicle.

Remove your jack stands and lower your vehicle.

Using your funnel, refill your oil to the proper level.

After you've refilled your oil, wait about 5 minutes then check your dipstick to make

sure you've added enough.

Once you're sure the oil level is where it needs to be, replace the cap, start up your

vehicle, and check for any leakage underneath.

Turn off your vehicle and check the oil level one more time now that the new oil has cycled

through the engine.

Some filters can hold as much as half a quart of oil and it might need to be topped off.

Bring the used oil to your local O'Reilly Auto Parts store for disposal.

Your vehicle may have an oil reset indicator that will require a reset.

Take note of your vehicle's mileage so that you know where to change your oil and filter

again.

And that's it!

The oil, filter, tools, and supplies that you need to complete this job are available

at your local O'Reilly Auto Parts store or online at OReillyAuto.com.
