  • Today, we learn that a 2x4 can’t support the weight of a bare Toyota Truck Cab.
    On rusty part-out trucks, I’ve always removed the drivetrain first, then the cab…
    but this time, I’m going to try removing the cab first.

    Legitimately helpful video, thanks! I have a 77 Datsun 620 with zero rust (New Mexico truck) and I'm toying with the idea of removing the cab so I can strip and repaint the frame rails

      I am currently in the process of doing this to a 1980 Toyota Long Bed from the south, except the cab floors were rotted because it sat outside for years with a broken window. ua-cam.com/video/imb9VbzPupw/v-deo.html

    Never thought another hilux could make me feel good about my rust! Mines looking pristine compared to this!

    My 1981 Hilux is the opposite lol, the cab is rusty as hell but the chassis only has very light surface rust.
    Your cab looks mint compared to mine, mines full of holes in the roof, bonnet, lower doors and floors.
    This is due to the fact that where I live in Australia we don't have road salt but rather salt in the sea breeze and morning dew due to our coastal location, meaning that most vehicles rust from the top down rather than the bottom up, unless they are driven on the beach

      I'm restoring a 1980 on the channel right now (actually using 2 crappy trucks to make one good 1980) and one of mine is the same... excellent frame but rusty cab.

    Working under my Michigan salt soaked 96 4Runner was a pain in the ass. It was the donor for my Tacoma 4WD conversion and I'm used to working under clean frame Texas/New Mexico trucks. I could probably have collapsed the entire rear of the frame with a few hammer hits. Which is insane to think about since someone was driving it up until it's motor went and I bought it.

    My science fair project is to find an alternative to salt for melting ice.
    Clearly it’s a problem, and I’m surprised it’s still used.

    • @6thGearGarage

      I’ve read that some areas use a solution based on beet juice, but it is more expensive and still a little corrosive.

      Try saw dust. Here where i live in Finland we have some kind of experiment to prevent slippery. It wont melt ice but it is rising friction.

    When I swapped the cab on my Truck I used a Homemade Wood beam adapter to my engine hoist and it was easy I just needed people on the front to keep it from Nose diving

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  5 років тому +1

      I had a buddy unload a complete cab w/ interior from a trailer by putting a 2x8 board through the top of the doors and he balanced the cab on a hoist, under the board in the center of the roof. Sketchy but it worked!

    • @6thGearGarage
      @6thGearGarage  2 роки тому

      If you use a load leveler, the engine should come out pretty easy with the cab still on. I had someone buying the cab, so I removed it first.
