Learning diy On the Fly
Приєднався 26 вер 2023
Hey everyone! My name is Earl and I’m going to start learning to diy. Limited knowledge on most things that will be on this channel, but I will show that it can still be done. I have many projects lined up and from simple maintenance all the way to full blown motor swaps. Can I do it? Will I need help? Who knows! I sure as hell don’t! I am ready to try and fail… and then try again!
For real, not a pro, and I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. I will give advise as I learn things but please don’t do what I’m doing unless you do a lot of prep for your own safety. My safety is … negotioninable. Please watch and enjoy and please feel free to comment with helpful tips and tricks.

Hardest start of this trucks life… it sad watching it slowly getting worse. At least the Cummins started and runs well but still sad. She has to last a little longer until I get the other car safe again. Then, it’s tear down time…

Nice box! Take care of that lady of yours! She's smart and she cares about your happiness! A genuine keeper!
Awesome truck man!
Pretty cool wife to pick out the bigger tool box for you. Lucky man! Very nice tool box, I just picked up the 30" tool cart, that was all I could afford to spend at the time but I would like to upgrade to a bigger US General one day. Thanks for sharing. I am glad I do not have a Harbor Freight credit card, I would be in some big trouble with the old lady. So far all the tools I have bought this year have been debit(cash) so that is why I had to go with the smaller 5 draw tool cart when it was on sale from $289 to $179 back in May. I am in the process of rebuilding my credit so it would not be smart of me to get a store card for a store I love to shop at. LOL - Some of the peg style socket holders you have to flip the sockets over to get them to sit properly. Not sure why but it seems to work for me. Check Amazon, I believe it is WORKPRO, they make the magnet style socket holders like TEKTON but you can get them cheaper and they a basically the same thing. A set of 3 for like $30-35
I am very lucky lol. the tool cart isa good optuon and ive seen many videos or people getting 2 carts and making a "roll cab" like setup. i almost went that way myself. my wife keeps me strait on credit lol so idont have to worry. lol thanks for the comment
Hell yeah, brother
Whatta brute!👍
Fuck now i gotta beef up my shitbox
lol. It’s getting a 5.9 Cummins. I’m excited.
@@Ontheflydiyguy I'm rocking ranger danger pal!
Farm truck 2.0
Just remember how the saying goes. It's not the size of the dog in the fight. It's the size of the fight in the dog.
I had to come back this reminds me army mech guys telling me why my vehs are down
It’s still running and driving but just not happy lol originally planned to Cummins swap but not enough funds so I’m putting the Cummins I bought into my 1969 f100. Lot cheaper… still expensive but cheaper lol
HahahhHahh, i cant hahahhah
Shit box 😂
That's pretty fucked up
Indeed lol
Take all your sockets on the rails n flip them to where the square end faces up that's how there supposed to be I figured that out the hard way

🤤 *promo sm*
Don’t feel lonely, I did the same thing with the ramp, lol.
Nice lol
If you pre order it, theyll deliver it to your house free of charge?
Not as far as I know. They delivered it to the store I chose. I have another video I made fun of the “delivery guys” that delivered it. It was my friend and I doing some pretty unsafe unloading procedures lol

how many tools do you have to put into it? I'm a dealership mechanic and just upgraded to this box and i will be filling it up with automotive stuff. congratz.
I’ve got some kits like torque bars and whatnot in the bottom drawer. Basic sets split in the others. I don’t have a ton to put in there yet but I could easily put my 3 impacts, all the charging equipment, and plenty more before I need to add on.
stop filming in portrait
I don’t always pay attention….
Hey, good luck with your channel mate!
Thanks! I hope it goes well. It’s already growing faster than my blacksmithing channel lol
how long was the wait
Roughly a month if I remember right.
You can remove the slide door locks. No need to "wedge" something in there to keep it from locking
Fair. I don’t mind them. Been using it for a bit now
I wish people buy much nicer colors I hate crappy looking gray colors like red green orange much nicer colors
I seen the green in person and it was very nice. The purple cart they had on display was nice too. But when I seen the gray, I really liked it. Plus if I get a little oil or something on it, I won’t notice as easy. Thanks for the comment
@@Ontheflydiyguy that's the problem way to many people like crappy color grays I so tired seeing gray cars gray gray gray enough
That’s fair. I like colors like that for accent or I will do like a light color with black or greys to accent. Like yellow car, black stripe. I was thinking about buying the accessories for my box in a brighter color to offset but they only had black when I bought that stuff.
@@teresaallen3045you should see a mental health professional if the color grey hurts you that much
Nothing wrong me I so f tired seeing gray crappy colors nothing wrong that maybe u need see Dr I tired seeing one damn color there are much nicer colors
LMAO!! That was one of the best vids I have seen in months! Kudos to you guys. You got that shit done!! Have a very happy New Year my man!!
Thanks lol. You have a happy new year as well.
Great content bud! 👍
Thanks. I try lol
Drill new hole put screw there fix one green socket
I hate gray colors like red green 💛 w
Red always reminded me of when I was a kid. After seeing grey in person, I had to have it lol. Thanks for the comment
Started with a craftsman box ( 25-30 years ago) and tool set ( 35 years ago) Over the years, I've added to it and had to get a bigger box. Now have the series 1 version of that box with the top and two of the full hight side boxes. Also one the 5 drawer serve carts. Planning to convert my old craftsmans box to a welder cart. Do wish I had gotten a bigger box. Have the post stile socket rack. But also have the problem with some of the impact sockets as they will not fit over the post. (Hole in socket is to small). Tools wise, I have a mix of craftsman, husky, harbor freight, and one others.
Nice. Thanks for the comment.
Nice tool box
Thanks. Video doesn’t do the slate grey justice
What kind of truck is this
96 ford f-350 with 7.3 power stroke
AKA, one of the greatest pickup trucks ever built. Period.
That's a good sounding 7.3, man
You got to remember the box is made in China Harbor Freight just sales them. Maybe they have thing with the designs marketing .
American made stuff nowadays isn’t that great. The engineering team is in the U.S. harbor freight gets the test samples and will only accept that design if it comes back to there standard and quality control. Realistically there’s cheap china and expensive china. Everything is in china. I mean harbor freight is cheap china. But nowadays I’ve come across things I’ve wanted to rip the “built in USA” sticker because the quality control is so bad. I mean it’s a lot of tool box for 900 bucks.
You could have saved a lot to spend on a more comprehensive set of tools by focusing on metric and just buying sae as you need it unless you're planning on working on cars made before 1970 I recommended you get a Ryobi 1\2" high torque impact and their 3/8 extended reach ratchet next I was able to get both of them for $350 with 4 hp batteries and a charger keep an eye out for a good sale Ryobi Ridgid Milwaukee and hart are all made by the same company tti. Also some flex head metric wrenches, flex head ratchets and some better ratchets than those composite Pittsburgh ones you'll be glad you did. I really like the 120 tooth gunmetal craftsman ratchets they were a really good choice. Also get the craftsman OBD2 reader with live data if you intend this tool collection to primarily work on your car(s) also those 1\2 inch impact sockets are ok but the Pittsburgh pro ones for a few bucks more are way better I wish I knew the were an option when I got them.
I bought the Hercules impacts. Just didn’t post right away. My recent video on finding a break leak, I go over them really quick. I love my older cars. I have a 69 ford f100 I showed in my first video. If I could, I would own a lot of other older vehicles too lol. I just wanted a wide variety but agreed. Could have saved now . I’m looking at all sorts of wrenches as well just brands right now are what’s cheap with a warranty or I probably would have bought all tekton to start. Thanks for the comment!
@@Ontheflydiyguy home Depot right now has a killer sale the high torque Ryobi impact , 2 - 4ah hp batteries and 2 free tools all for 279 Im hoping Ill have the cash to get this so I can get the angle grinder and hackzall. Still waiting for Ryobi to make a right angle impact and a sub compact 3\8 impact or even a driver as small as the Ridgid. I do think the Hercules power tools five year over the counter warranty its a pretty sweet deal. But I dropped my mid torque Ryobi In a bucket of atf during an engine swap and it's still kicking ass I just wish I had the high torque because the p262 was barely strong enough to use with my Maddox bearing press adapter kit. It stripped the forcing screw out I should have got the astro pneumatic set instead. But I've slowly started to get more craftsman tools. A slide hammer the gunmetal ratchets pry bars, ratcheting wrenches and that nice little obd reader. I also like husky ratchets which are made by apex and identical to some gear wrench products. I have the 3\8 and 1\2 locking flex heads the gimbal palm ratchet and the 144 tooth 1\2 inch. I just need the two index head ratchets they sell at hf and some swivel heads. Also tekton tools is made by apex so a lot of the mid quality Pittsburgh pro stuff is literally the same. Look at the comfort grip swivel oto head ratchets they are identical. Something else I plan on getting to round out my collection is a matco 88 tooth replacement ratchet flex head so I can pop it into a pitsburgh pro 25 inch breaker bar handle for a 25 inch long half inch flex head ratchet for $57 which is like 75% off the tool truck options. a couple UA-camrs have done this mod and it's pretty sweet.
Lawn equipment still uses SAE...that's one reason to get standard tools
Gonna give you a follow
So for the socket holder just take a Dremel and grind down the peg a bit, that’s what I did and I’ve had the same experience with all socket holders it’s just because the sockets are bored differently across some brands. You might be able to take that socket holder and see if they’ll swap it out for you for another one
Cold starts 💪
Awesome truck! 👍👍👍
Thanks! Much appreciated
So you got blue and black exhaust coming out so what's the big deal you wasted your money on that really who cares it's a clown truck now
It’s a throw back to one of the few times in my child hood that I could smile so to me, not much I could do to that truck would make me happier than those stacks. So yeah, looks clown to some and that’s fine but I am someone who knows that even simple things like this could be a source of happiness for someone. Hi five them, tell them that you can see the work they put in. Congratulate their achievement. I’m glad I decided to look positive and help build people up. It is fun when people hate on it though lol
Socket holders try putting the ratchet end of the socket up.
All the harbor freight stock images show the sockets the same way I put them so figured they should fit. Plus the drive size is the size of the square at the bottom. You are right though that the ones that don’t fit properly, would probably be better to store upside down.
Are you going to just use icon and Pittsburgh tools or will you have a mixture and I was looking into Pittsburgh and icon which one is better
@@vinnyvinny2508 I will mix and match. Harbor freight credit is why I have such a big purchase here so far. Tekton is another good brand I plan on getting some of as well. Better warrantee in my opinion. Between icon and Pittsburg, icon is their “snap on” version of tools. I handled some in store and they are noticeably better then Pittsburg but at a cost. For me to get started, Pittsburg is and still would be my go to for the first set of stuff to get started.
Have you tested the warranty? Why I asked l heard you have to return a whole set, if the socket came in a set?
@@MrLonewolfKaraoke so I don’t have personal experience yet but have watched a lot of people’s videos where they did returns. Plus, the way one person explained, the “sale sets” that are highly discounted and are missing 1 piece of the set, most of those are single socket returns. The socket is only sold in a set so they take one from the set for your replacement and highly discount the set with the missing piece. Others have said the same as you, Their local store told them complete sets. One said that they wrote corporate about that and they said it should just be replaced but I don’t know if that was legit or not. Hoping I made a good choice. Everyone at the store I went to said “if you break it, it’s covered. Just bring it in and we will take care of you” was it a lie? Maybe, but worth the chance for me to save money

Gonna be a good project! I have a red cclb ‘97 just like yours with an industrial 12 valve. It’s always good for a smile or two.
I’m hoping to start tearing it apart soon. Gonna be an adventure for sure lol
nice truck homey 😁
Thanks! I hope to keep making it even better
I have a 4 inch in the stock exhaust placement, but these stacks sound really good & remind me of our semi trucks. Nice truck
Thanks. I love the sound and hope after the engine swap, it will be even better.
nice work gents
Cool new edition to the garage
I still got that Marlboro bag.
My parents use to have a couple we used when we went on vacation lol
Yeah those are cosmetic. They make real ones that hold actual weight at part houses
I got these stupid things at a farm store… not again lol. They were just going to be temporary but wish I wouldn’t have waisted the money
