We needed to get a LITTLE CREATIVE to install the heater
Переглядів 228День тому
The factory heater would have worked as designed if we had not used the fresh air duct for the COWL induction. So now we need to find another source of fresh air for the heater box. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheetmetalrepair #tahoe #international

We weld the trans tunnel in work on getting the seats mounted. Lesson learned...seat pans that are not flat are much more difficult especially if you have not allowed any clearance between the seat and the seat pan. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheetmetalrepair #seatswap

Swapping a 5-Wire CDI for a 7-Wire

We get an old and very used golf cart running using a five wire CDI module. The wiring is not intuitive, but it seems to work. I am not sure why this isn't a more common fix. #CDI, #golfcart, #ignitioncoil, #nospark

In this video we convert a 1963 C10 to power steering using a cardboard box template. With a little bit of care this is a very straightforward swap. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheetmetalrepair #c10 #powersteering

To replace rusty metal on the firewall, the dash had to come out. Since we had a square body dash already out, we thought we would see if it would fit the IH. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheetmetalrepair

Repairing rusty cab support with simple tools

In this video we finally get the rusty passenger side cab support replaced on our Tahoe swapped International pickup. Getting all of the rusty metal out seemed to take forever. However, the end result looks good. We are getting closer to putting the bed back on and driving this thing. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheetmetalrepair
Sometimes you wonder if the door is even ALIGNABLE

We update the happenings at Random Rod Shop ... "a day in the life" sort of thing. We also continue work on the Tahoe swapped International pickup. This time, we begin work on the passenger side; starting with aligning the door. As with the driver's side, the rocker appears to defies alignment. #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #metalshop #sheet...
The Upper Control Arm nuts will not stay tight

Out of all of the square body chevys I have driven, this is the only one that has a problem with the passenger side upper control arm nuts coming loose. Never had a problem with the driver's side. In this video we replace the upper control arm assembly and the lower control arm ball joint in an effort to finally find a remedy for this problem. #squarebodychevy #controlarm #project #welding #diy...
How long does it actually take to weld a patch panel?

The frame swap journey continues on the hot rod truck. Welding is a given when working on rusty trucks. Unfortunately, disappointment is in your future if you underestimate the amount of time it requires. In this video we show, in real time, welding in an upper windshield panel and a floorboard. Also, all of the welding in this video was accomplished with a flux core welder. ua-cam.com/video/Lo...

What started a simple project has snowballed. The more we work on the international pickup the more rust we find. Today we uncover more rust above the windshield. We make a replacement panel from old shelving material with simple tools. studio.ua-cam.com/users/playlistPLH2xo4tt9CmGhaZP1VQdr7P-q-01lagzP/edit #project #welding #diy #rustrepair #partscar #frameswap #engineswaps #harborfreight #met...
