    When I was in high school around 1961 of 62 a friend of mine bought this Truck and a 6x6 Studebaker at a military surplus auction for $1,100 and change for the pair, I drove the Studebaker home while he drove the Dodge ,the Studebaker 6x6 will climb walls ,he still owns both trucks along with a Willys Jeep and Panel Truck .

      InsertFlashyName Having been on these offroad rallies this is not the answer. There is a good reason support vehicles tend to be a 10 year old Toyota Landcruiser and a cabover Dakar/Army type truck. The Toyota is quiet, fast and you can easily sell it if you need to leave it in x country if you need the space or money. If needed the Truck can carry the race vehicle and we stick the tools onto/into the Toyota or shiping container should the race car crash beyond repair which happens alot. You can have an awning/work area on the shady/dry side of a a cabover rather than the tailgate in the sun/rain/wind/snow at the side of the dusty road.

    @charliesd250 6 років тому +136

    I used to have a lot of respect and admiration for Legacy but as I continue to advance my skill set in restoration and fabrication this vehicle is far from a $250k price tag. The rear suspension (springs) are the original 1.75” wide springs that came stock on the WC53 with BRASS bushings and cast iron spring hangers. Shocks are purely for looks since it appears they went with a 12” travel shock and limited it to a 4” travel. E Brake cables are at risk of being ripped off, frame has extensive welding which is a corrosion hotspot internally and riddles it with dozens of concentrated stress areas (boxing plates end between crossmembers) and the diesel engine itself is very reliable but there is no reason to boast the spin on fuel filter since they come standard with it. I could care less about the thought put into vent tubes over the rest of the entire damn truck. Making the tailgate out of 1/8” plate means the outer skin is loaded with bondo to get the shape it needs to flow with the body. Fuel fill location is rediculous, headlight mounts are cheesy, hydroboost isnt straight, firewall is just boring flat bedlined steel, the air compressor is a joke... they made gear drive compressors for this cummins engine that would take the cake in air volume and reliablity. Nice try Legacy, I’ll see you next year with a real resto mod Dodge that’s practical! Charlie, New Era Performance LLC

      @Slider68 6 років тому +26

      jay west I've got to agree with you on the fuel door. Other than that it looks like a well thought out build.
      They didn't mention what's in the front axle but if it was my truck I'd have a Detroit Locker in the front axle as well.
      I guess there are a few other tweaks I'd make too:
      - a bit more height/spring in the rear so it sits level and rides well with 1500-2500 lbs on board (or if I needed it to use it regularly carrying wildly different loads I'd install heavy duty rear air suspension).
      - a large compressed air tank mounted underneath somewhere.
      - strong skid plates protecting vulnerable components.
      - off-road differential covers that can handle being driven into rocks without buckling.
      - something to allow me to winch from the rear (moveable winch, dual winches, or a pulley setup to route the winch cable to the rear).
      - high power CB radio with a whip antenna.
      - single color paint, probably white.
      - a rear 12V power jack (to power a cooler/fridge)
      - a built in 15A (or more) 120V inverter and a few standard 120V outlets.
      - if the atlas transfer case doesn't have a 4:1 low range I'd add it.
      - strong cup holders for each passenger (two for each front passenger).
      - strong, functional rock sliders to protect the rocker panels and provide additional frame torsional stiffness.
      - removable custom built tool and parts storage for everything needed to support the race/rally vehicles.
      - removable rear seats with seatbelts to seat up to 8 passengers, including driver.
      Then it would be my ultimate heavy duty chase truck.

    Anyone else notice the rear shocks were completely bottomed out when it was on the lift? For a quarter million dollars you would think they could at least manage to get that correct. It is also funny that this guy says they designed it to carry tools and parts as a chase vehicle, but if you want to put fuel in it you have to remove all of that and stretch all the way into the truck to get at the fuel door as if they couldn't imagine a way to lock the fuel door from a reasonable position. For Christ sake the rear door requires pad locks if you want to secure it. What a joke. More money than brains club vehicle for sure.

    • @allanmacbadger5692

      Yeah, there were a couple of quirky things about this truck that made me scratch my head and you mentioned most of them. I also thought the e-brake lines dangling in big hoops beneath the rear axle was just asking for them to get ripped off when off-roading. And the big long-tube King shocks look cool, but it looks like they only had about 3 inches of travel, and like you said, they were bottomed out in the rear. Very strange! Some things were really well thought-out, and others really weren't. Like you said, for the money, I'd expect a lot more attention to detail.

      Gotta admit that was pretty rinky. Like you say, the padlocks will rattle something fierce if you drive it down the road with them on, let alone off-road. It'll scar up the paint pretty quick too. So you're going to want to leave them off when driving. That means extra inconvenience every time you leave the truck or come back to it. Real easy to forget or just not bother. There goes your security.
      A crowbar in hand is all it takes for a criminal to make quick work of the lightweight latches. No need to pick the padlocks. If sturdiness was the driving concern, he sure missed the boat with those latches. Ridiculous after spending 150 pounds of weight on the tailgate door itself.

    This guy should hire Jay as a build consultant, i like Jays approach way better. There should be a heavy duty bumper,... the pushee will at some point be the pushed guaranteed no matter how capable it is.
    I don't understand why he was so braggish about how EVERYTHING was built 4x's heavier than it needed to be, but he put an electric winch on it, i don't care how many thousands of pounds the manufacturer said it will pull... it'll pull a small fraction of the weight a power take off winch will pull, see SUPERJEEP on Alaskan road warriors, its what made his offroad truck better than everyone else's.
    It's a wonderful truck, with a few minor changes it would even be better.

      Also the Dana 60 axle on the front, it seems to me he said it was a 5 -1/4 ton, the Dana 60 is a mighty fine axle, but its made for a 3/4 ton truck and he said EVERYTHING was built way heavier than it needed to be. I hope the guy who's paying 250k doesn't see this show.

    Owner will hate the service brake on that aftermarket disk brake conversion. Who's idea was it to mount the calipers at the 12 o'clock position? Guess to trying to get the service brake cable a bit higher at the cost of making bleeding a pain. Put a service brake on the transfer case output. That way the service brake works reliably, and you don't have to mess with the cables, and can put the caliper in the correct orientation. Fuel filler needs to be sorted out. It was a short cut, and we all know it. Ditch the shutoff solenoid for a cable. Hope the owner does a few chase/shake down's in the states before shipping it abroad.

      How do you refuel it with your tools inside? Also how do you reach your tools in the back of the truck when you have something on the tailgate/workbench? You are standing in the sun/rain and can't reach or see drawers above shoulder height. Having a couple of 3cm thick work benchs that has folding legs so it can be moved anywhere and if firm mounting is needed it clips onto either side of the truck above the rear tire has been better as you can work on the less dusty and safer side of the road. Ours clip together with a 1msq centre to make a dining or gearbox rebuilding table

  • @outsidethebox617
    @outsidethebox617 6 років тому +27

    As much as I'd love such a vehicle... There would be a few adjustments needed.
    Starting with the fueling location.
    The fuel door will be trapped by cargo that would have to be moved every time you fueled. Not to mention that spilled diesel would not only stain both the truck and cargo, but stink to high heaven. (Made worse when driving in hot conditions like Africa)
    Why not elevate the air filter to the roofline like mil spec.
    Padlock latches on back need padlock protection plates for the nice paint job. The current system will not prevent the locks from flopping about on bumpy roads causing the locks to slam into the paint and chip it. Bad idea anyway as listening to padlocks slap and rattle against the back of the vehicle for hours on end would get maddening.
    Tailgate needs some sort of lock down feature . If its meant to act as a work bench and withstand being hammered on, the cable supports will allow it to bounce. Also inside of door should have been made flat as its curved shape will be annoying to work on.
    Air compressor looks undersized.
    Sure it may reach the necessary PSI but if the intention is to run air tools then CFM is a concern as well. As air tools are a pig on air. They drain tanks quickly and need fast compressors to keep up.
    Straping down the axes and shovels on the back creates two problems.
    One... More Rattling
    Two... Open to theft.
    And one final thing.... A little aside.
    Jay...if you are reading this...
    KEEP IT BETWEEN THE LINES!!!
    In every video I see you in, you always end up at some point wondering over the center line.
    U don't LOOK drunk....lol
