You sure brought this old girl a very long way you put a ton of work and money into it and you’ve breathe new life into it I love what you’re doing with these trucks and I love the video content. Cheers brother ❤
Thx Paul
Great video James glad to see Krystal getting some maintenance done. Looking forward to your next video stay safe James.
Thx bro
Ive done many of those radius arm bushes on trailers....one side of the trailer would have adjustable radius arms ,so that you could adjust the alignment of the axles...had to press fit the bushes into the radius arms ...
I just did the suspension bushings on my old Pete. The first one was the worst, after that I found the easy way. Big impact, big hammer , big torch.
Yep I use the torch a lot on the next two videos
Hi James great show. Loved our visit at mid America truck show. Also the show on the airplane you fly.
Thanks so much for being here
Great video James. Thank you for for your hard work you do to restore Krystal.
Thx chip
i remember liking heavy work like this. 30 years ago. glad that you still like it. i used to stack tractor tires for fun. farm tractor, rear tires.
Heavy work sucks
That all went relatively well, good job done. (So far!!)
It gets much worse lol
Nice Saturday morning for you hope you’re recovering well from Covid
Doing well Tim
James Krystal is coming along nicely.
Thx David
Frickin awesome James
Have you seen the wheel stud installer that is a bearing with an area for the lig nut to sit in. They work really good for installing studs and they come in a few different sizes.
Yep I’ve seen it. Should maybe get one
Good video again, James good job brother fixing. Krystal up the truck is looking good good keep up the hard work safe Travels on the airplane, captain
Thx bro
That's a lot of work but it will be worth it when it's done love the video
Thx nick
One things for sure, ya definitely don’t have to go to the gym doin that. That is one thing I like about U an Chad, yall do ur own work on y’all’s rigs. Mad respect to ya Both Brother
Thx brother
Morning James , Well check off one more pita job!
Mornin!!
Good ideal using a shovel never tried that 😁😎👍👊
Works well
Most of the time
@@JamesPretty I have tire bars that why I said it but awesome always learning something new
Trucks going to be a power house when you get her done- I really like it
Thx Charles
Hi James, boy those were really in there. Looks like a workout. Krystal will ride better with those replaced hopefully the centers come out easier but I don’t think they will. Hopefully you get to feeling better. Stay safe
Thx bro
I feel your pain James you start doing suspension work you find quickly your working on a big truck keep up the good work
Thx brother. That’s a true story for sure
That shovel is a great idea
Works
Good Thx bro
Good job a little at a time . Thats how i do s lot things
Thx Bob
Man the heat is on!
Sure is
Good beautiful Saturday morning y'all. Nice day to work on ol Krystal
Thx bro
they sell a bearing to pull in studs, the handle on your tire gun is 90 degrees off, i looked at my cat settings and your e model should be set to .027, buy a set of the swivel impact universal sockets for just this situation, if you anti seize the rubber mating areas it helps them come off later also, if you use this truck for logging it will need rebushed, how did the grease get on the brake shoe, not good. best of luck on the pivot bushing.
Are you referring to the Jake setting? If so it’s .030 for a 435 horse according to the Jake manual.
@@JamesPretty per cat manual its .027, the .030 is for a acert cat,. if they are weak reset if not motor on.
it's getting warm , outside at last.
It is for sure
Nice workout😂😂
Thx bro p
Never assume anything...never base anything on assumption ....just my thoughts and from my own experience..
True
Super video 👍👏🥰🇨🇿😉
Thx pavel
Good morning that don’t look like fun
Not fun. Lol
you need 4 hands
For real I do
Good deal brother now she is good for another million plus miles keep up the good work can't wait to see her done
Thx bro
Yes sir you keep up all the good work
The only problem I see is with the nut behind the steering wheel. I don’t think that you’ll find any driver willing to drive for hire a truck with an all steel suspension in this day and age ! It’ll be hard to find shippers willing to load freight on a non air ride truck too. I started driving in the eighties with a ‘76 Autocar S-64TF, 300 hp first gen NT-855 big cam Cummins, 5&4 Spicer tween stick, air starter, no brakes on the steer axle and “armstrong” steering with a huge 22” steering wheel. That thing was so loud you couldn’t hear yourself think and rougher than a rodeo bull ride, but that’s how trucks were back then ! The Yukon roads and the Dalton Highway in AK didn’t help much with the ride either ! LOL
@@hereintranzit first I wouldn’t put a driver in this truck. Second it ride better than the fld’s on airliner
@JamesPretty I’d drive “Crystal” if it was possible. Some guys just aren’t cut out for us old school guys like me back in the day when my neighbors had a few in their heavy duty tow fleet. With that wheel base on “Crystal”,…she couldn’t ride all that bad anyways
Don’t forget guys hit the 👍 button to give Captain James a boost
Thx brother
Good job i do things a little at a time
Man, that bottom bolt looked like it sucked! Now, don't laugh when I say this. I wear sweat bands when I work on my stuff my 46 year old ass works a sweat up just standing up these days, lolol. Appreciate the video. Great job!
Thx Rick
Try “quenching” it’s were you heat up a stubborn nut/bolt red hot and then quench it with cold water, I’ve seen even u bolts come undone useing this method,.and this was way before air/electric hammer gun/tools,.
Mmm ok sounds logical
Thanks for the video James. I know I say it every time I comment but I love your trucks. Wish I lived closer I’d help you work on them.
Thx Jed
Dude, the only time you seem to not mess with these old trucks it’s when your sitting in the left seat of that triple seven at 30K to 40K feet altitude on intercontinental flights, right? LOL
I guess that truck addiction could be kinda like opioid addiction. Just as expensive but legal and much less self destructive, right? LOL
Hahaha 10/4
Hey James. I don't know if your interested in an ad I saw on Facebook marketplace but a gentleman in New Jersey is selling a couple of Marmon hoods. I'm not sure if they are in better or worse condition. I figured I would let you know considering it's not offen hoods for Marmon trucks pop up.
Appreciate ya
I’m new to your channel.lookin forward to some good content!thanks buddy.
Welcome aboard! thanks for being here
DAMM that's a lot of work but very rewarding. Great job James as always appreciate ya.
Thx bro
hi made it
Good morning James the shovel trick work every time don't it good job bro
Sure does.
I like the sound effects James! That extra grunt gets it tight!
Hahaha sure does
Glad that you are back working on the trucks again. Very enjoyable '' Bossman '' Great work.
Thx David
Those are a pain in the ass to do nice work James
Thx Ryan
Good job i do things a little at a time
Me too Bob
Those parts are giving you so much hell it would be just as easy to make it an 8 bag air ride or even a pete 4 bag system...
I have an 8 bag cutoff but I’m not ready to do that
It may sound silly to you but when you get ready (I know it sounds like a lot of work) un bolt the spring ride (here comes the work) weld all the extra holes that you don't need shut of course after you set the eight bag up and see what you can already use and drill to fit. I know it sounds terrible but it is a good way to do it.
It beats cutting the frame if you don't have to.
Belle vidéo 👌 😉. Sacré travail ⚒. Respect 😉 👌 🇺🇸 🇫🇷
Thx bro
