Duluth cargo pants... a true man of culture!
Ive been wearing them for years now. My favorite is the firehose pants with the pockets for knee pads 😊
@@StephenCox. How is Justin doing? I havent seen any activity from the Good of the Land in a year or so. You guys still hang out any or talk?
I can relate to this video 100%.... been there many times my friend. "Man looks in the abyss, there's nothing staring back at him. At that moment, man finds his character. And that is what keeps him out of the abyss."
All you can do is push on through and build more character.....
_If you just do stuff and nothing happens, what's it all mean...what's the point?_
'If it ain't one thing, it's two things'.
Keep on keeping on.
Axle rebuild trick the cops don't want you to know
Yep you need to get a new one. Cover it in mud and claim its been sitting in a swamp for 30 years. Then wash it off and claim you restored it. That's the you tube way ; )
@OldF1000 You must be my uncle. I've seen him pull that trick once in a while on my nephews when they tell about a problem but he knows there is no problem. Or at least not for another few thousand more hours (but not in his Piper or theirs)
Stephen I’ve been following you for years and your an awesome mechanic and your videos are all awesome - this was one long-ass day for you. I cannot believe how clean and little rust there is under 17 yr old Texas trucks! Thanks buddy and looking forward to the next video. Cheers
I'm just trying to play the algorithm for views with that title. My mom says I'm the greatest mechanic in the world and I believe her.
@@StephenCox. your mother is absolutely correct brother - gotcha on the title.
I bet you'll be glad to have an actual shop to work in again.
There is always something that happens adding to the fun, at least you are/were in a garage.
Good job on fixing that. You have what is known as a Narrow frame version, or cab&Chassis. They have narrower frame rails than a regular pickup as you just found out. Easy way to tell, is the cab/chassis version has the fuel tank behind the rear axle. The pickups have the mid-ship fuel tank.
It can never be easy…..
Oh man! Come on! Use the dang jack going up the drive way or a little red wagon. Don't do that to yourself. Make it an easy job.
Well theres your new T shirt slogan " I need a red bull,,,,, or some meth" HAHA
A Meh- canics life is never boring! 😂
Cut and weld!
Knock er loose more recommend than knock er up
I know this is off the wall but where did you get that belt knife you carry?
I have arthritis in my hands and I've been looking for a fixed blade short knife that's sheath doesn't have a strap to hold it in place.
iused to do stuff like that when I was young now I havee trouble carring a 40 lps of dog food into the house,get help with that stuff.
It was at that moment that Stephen wished he had just bought a fucking Chevy so he wouldn't have these kinds of problems
Yeah snap on vs harbor freight person gotta pick and choose good in both brands can’t bet a snap on ratchet tho but somethings are better than the high dollar name peal snap on
Good morning 🌞

Been there Steve. This is when you wish you didn't have the knowledge, talent and tools to do the job and just let 'the man' fix it. So what if he wants a bunch of pictures of Uncle Franklin.
last diff rebuild on a ram 1500 had to use a chimney brush on a drill in the axle tubes with diesel it was so gummed up from all the chinesium soft bearings they use in OEM
I think it's time to start re-watching ALL of your videos. Its amazing what i THINK i remember as compared to what i didnt remember, when im trying to prep for a particular problem the next day! Thanks again. Thank you so very much.
9:31; i had a personal trainer from Howe Texas who started out his young days benching a truck axle.
work with what ya got...
You should have chucky ducky come hang out
Pretty sure he's living in a different state now.
X-WIFE vampires leave one hell of a bite
Cut the perches off the CC axle and weld them to the inside of the existing perches. Might need the shock mount moved Just need a few tack welds so you don't bend the tube
Man look at all them leaf springs! Wow
When it rains it pours!
Nice solution. Those original welds were going to rust out soon anyway.
Appliance moving straps would probably work better for stuff like that...
Cool my dad has had a few triumph motorcycles since I was little a 66 t something and a 66 Bonneville, and a 67 Bonneville they were cool bikes and definitely have a unique sound!!! , and i have seen a few of those 10.25 Ford sterling rear axle assembly setups, since a few of my buddies have owned the super duty trucks, and my brother in law had a 2004 f250 6.8litre v10 4x4 super cab short bed xl, and my cousin had the almost same truck but a xlt,2002and a few second gen dodge trucks my buddies have owned,a 89 dodge w350 Cummins diesel getrag 5spd manual shift transmission 4x4 regular cab long bed power ram, and my momma's 96 Ford f250 7.5 460bbf aode, and a 10.25 ford sterling rear truck was originally a 7.3 powerstroke dealership swapped, the cab and chassis, Chevy and ford trucks the rear frame is more narrow

I watched this entire video, learned a lot. What I remember? “..imma’ take dez nuts off..” 😅
Hope your doing well.
Thanks! You too!
I seen the title and didn't know i had been filmed. lol
Lol
aww! you can't be all bad you have a H.F. stool lol
Man.......I've been there.....if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. Or.... Murphy's Law.......now I say.....better lucky than good!!!!!!
Who's driving the truck and just died Ford truck
I say sell the dodge and get out if there.
This goes back decades with Ford trucks. I made the mistake of buying a rear-end out of an 86 service truck to put in my 85 F350. Wouldn't fit at all. Luckily the wrecking yard I bought it from had a 90 F350 dually and he swapped the them out for me.
As one who will probably never rebuild a Ford axle, I am confident i now know enough to be dangerous.
Watching you humph that axle reminded me of my younger days putting in a transmission with the 4-yo pumping the jack.
Don't envy you a bit. Way to persevere!
Is there a reason why you didn't rebuild the original rear end without taking it out of the truck?
Your claim is bold...provocative...but I suck more as a mechanic.
I feel for you.
Every time I start a project it seems like I have 3 more before I’m finished. 😝
Man that truck owes you nothing it has to stay in fleet as long as the trusty engine still kickin
Aw c’mon man, not the absolute worst surely !
Another one out of the ball park!!!!!!!!!
