Time to get greasy.

One of the challenges for Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 Week 1 is to collect mechanical parts from vehicles, trailers, buses, or tractors. This is actually quite easy to do, and is a part of the new crafting system introduced this season.
All you need to do is hit any of the listed vehicles with your harvesting tool, the same way you would to harvest metal. Every few hits, a mechanic part will drop for you. You only need to collect five to complete the challenge, and it is worth 24,000 XP toward your Battle Pass. You should be able to get all five pieces from a single vehicle.
You can find these vehicles all over the map, just like last season. When you have collected some, you will be able to open the inventory and switch to the crafting tab which will give you different recipes depending on the items and then crafting materials you have collected.
You may not have all the items that you need to build everything, so pay close attention to exactly what you need for each recipe if you do plan on crafting items.
You can find the rest of the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6 Week 1 challenges below:
- Find Golden Artifacts near the Spire (0/3) – 24,000 XP
- Craft a Hunter’s Cloak (01) – 24,000 XP
