Towing a Truck With a Truck, This Should be Easy!

- Опубліковано 21 чер 2023
- In this video I have to move an old Chevrolet 6400 5-ton truck. I already know that the engine was bad 20 or more years ago, so I'm just going to take the easy way out and tow it. This should be no problem...
Here's the sources I used for the engine identification information:

chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/... - Авто та транспорт
Your available projects and content for videos is off the charts.
Low Buck Garage and Diesel Creek are my guilty pleasures lol This channel has come a long way and ALWAYS fun.
These videos are awakening a desire for an old dump truck in me. I don’t even know what I would do with it, they’re just neat.
Yeah me too. I would totally daily drive that Dodge. That Oshkosh pulled that Chevy with the locked duals like it was nothing!
Very nostalgic for me. Those dump control levers took me back to an old Jimmy I drove as a teen. If you revved to high while dumping the PTO driveshaft would fly apart and would take an hour to repair. The old oshkosh is a beast!
he needs a ops manual for this epic rig
I would love to see more stuff like this! Your literally playing snowrunner in real life
Man that Oshkosh is too cool! love that 12 valve sound., really hope that she gets restored some day.
I've a Mechanic for 34 years and I love your videos.
the BOB ROSS of the vehicles repair
Congrats Low-Buck Garage, on finding-out how to mow-down some small trees, also how the transfer lever's work.. good job..
and dig ruts to channel the water away from road
I love the shifty eyes thinking about lunch first. The off-hand manner and simple humor of his channel makes it the best. I hope to see this truck in the future (dare say see it run?)
Love the yellow truck.
That thing is a beast!
Worth the effort to make everything work properly.
Man, I am so glad that dump bed didn't fall on you.
Starting with lunch is always the best plan
Thursday ,With Low Buck garage ,still in the north east guaranteed fun times while learning things ,The More you know . I found your channel by accident ,and now I wouldn't miss it ,I love the setting reminds me when I was a kid living on the farm driving junkers through the woods What great fun that was
That was fun. Can you give us a tour of the old GMC that you passed by around 18:30 minutes? Also, those 1954 Chevys are very desirable because the grill is unique to that year.
Hi, must be great to have so much land to have fun in. Here in UK we only have postage stamp lots. Many thanks.
There was a comment I read once on Musties channel that was posted by a fella from the UK and I will never forget it….”must be nice having all that land! Only way I’d ever get a couple acres is if someone kicked me in the nuts!” Hahahaha
@@ronfrance4041 hahaha 🤣
Me and 4of my friend's one winter went to gether and gave 500 for a truck just like that one we fix it up and we hauled hay on it in the summer it's still setting at one of my friend's house man we had some good times and made some money we would haul at night when it was cool we would take turns one would driver and one would pick up up and one would stack and one would hold the light
Reinstalling the air filter kinda dressed up the engine some what, good work.
I was wondering how much land your father has up there ? It appears with all the vehicles and equipment he has looks like at least 15 or 20. Secondly you must have a very very special and supportive spouse you are indeed blessed!
That Osh Kosh is a total beast!
That's some impressive pulling power 👍
New dump bed for the Oshkosh. Battery cover should have a "D" ring in the turning section.
if you get that diff lock to work look out you could probably drag three of them trucks around lollots of fun watching your vids keep on tuckin
Thanks for the video. You always make me laugh and smile.
Always enjoy watching your videos keep them coming
Really like your attitude. "If you're not having fun, you're doing it the wrong way" or words to that effect.
Please can we have a weekly episode??? 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻My favourite channel.
that oshkosh is awesome. And I really like the style of the Chevy
yes!!!! I've been missing my high quality low buck garage!!!!
Giday mate , love your vids and humor , thanks for the giggles . it's much easier to move things sideways if you attach the chain as high and short as you can on thee tow truck and as low as possible on the ruined truck , it will lift as you pull and you won't damage rims and tyres .😎
That Osh is awesome! Such a rugged Beast. I love that truck. My father worked for the state of CT for 29 years as a field clerk. He may have actually ridden in this truck!
I knew that was a ct state seal! I saw the new haven body mud flaps. Litchfield here
It’s amazing who many vehicles you have to drive or drag other vehicles around with. Man I wish I was so lucky.
That Oshkosh is a real beast.
Ah the power of good ol brute force and momentum. Nicely done.
That old Oshkosh is badass.
Dude, I don't know if you're a genius or an idiot, but I love the way you get things done... 😆
I don’t think idiot is at all an consideration
Man that Oshkosh is COOL 😎
Thanks for sharing your fun! Really enjoy watching your videos lots of fun
nothing but love. live life!!!
What are y’all going to do with those old Mercedes that keep popping up in the background? Make them into Mutt Truck Mercs?! 😆 Love your channel!
Omg the casual hummer wagon in the background ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ dream vehicle of mine
I'm so glad you didn't cut the tree down....beautiful picture
Those Chevy straight 6 ‘s run forever , and they have a ton of torque
Love that old truck
Excellent video Glenn : ) yes had lots fun tow old Chevrolet 3 ton stake truck and 1969 Oshkosh truck trying out 4×4 first time too !
What great property love that place
Love the Oshkosh! What a beast !! Awsome yard truck 👍💪🏻
It looks like your having fun.👍
Enjoyed
Another Fine Episode!
Can't beat a 12v Cummins! 😁👍 That Oshkosh is just too awesome James! Enjoyed the video and happy wrenching 🔧🔩
Keep up the great content!
Great vid , hopefully running soon , thanks for sharing 👍💨💨
Seems like old yellow has become a drag-ster 😁
That's such a cool place to go back too!
I really like that 6400 truck. It's purty and has almost no dents! Weird how it rusted under the hood that way. There are a lot of facts in your videos - always something to learn, like the location of the valve cover bolts and the pressurized oil system.
The effortless power of the Cummins
More impressed with that plow truck everytime I see it.
The Oshkosh is such a cool beast
Oh man I could listen to that Cummins work under load for hours!!
What a cool truck that Oshkosh is
I would literally watch you drag a rock in circles with that Cummins or any old engine under load for that matter 😂😂
The mutt truck sounds great too! Maybe even better
Always look forward to your videos.
Great video, thanks.
You have the best toys...😎
What a minty old Chevy! Sweet old GMC in the bush too!
Grandpa had some cool stuff
Nicely done
Beautiful old truck. Would be cool to see that cab put on something cool. Love the Oshkosh too.
That Oskosh is so cool. It effertlessly drags the old Chevy even with the stuck rear brakes.
I enjoy your videos, we work in very similar fashions lol.
I like how he did the pruning after it was parked there. Those limbs make for a good cushion to prevent the truck from bumping into the tree trunk.
Great video, thanks
great video! I wish there was more old iron here not in the junk yards.. 5 old c 60s went by my house last week on the way to the junk yard.. what a shame. Stove bolts were a great engine.. lots of good parts on that truck yet.
That Oshkosh is pretty substantial 🤩
What you need for extra maneuvering of your stuff around by yourself is one a those $300 13,500lb winches off Amazon with the wireless remotes, along with a couple snatch blocks. It on the front of my little jeep here has made life so much easier, and my boneyard much tidier to boot.
Thanks for another video they are silly but fun to watch
Just found your channel seem to have some nice old iron I'll be on the lookout for more videos
That Oshkosh is a beautiful beast.
I was struck between the similarities between that Chev 6400 and a TJ Bedford. Some styling differences in the front end, but the cab interiors felt very similar. Been many years since I've been inside one though so could be wrong. I think late 50's Bedfords found their way back to the GM parts bin through Vauxhall? Maybe I'm mile off and my memory playing tricks.
A common mod for those Bedfords in AUS when they were relegated to "farm truck" duty was to drop a Holden (GM) 308 V8 in them. Plenty of them lying around.
The Oshkosh always makes me giggle. A huge truck... with a dump bed from a Ford Ranger.
i have a '54 6400 ex-grain truck that i cab swapped with a '94 1500. i love those 5 window cab trucks, but rear wheel cylinders are unobtainium for the big trucks, so it went from a ramp truck project to a cab swap project. luckily, the cab is the same no matter what size in that series.
amazing!
Whole new meaning of Going hunting!
Hope you can still get big-end shells for that thing. I suspect some time spent unlocking the rear brakes might have paid dividends - unless it was the trans that was locking the rear wheels.
Hey this isn't hacked up to bad. May be worth keeping original. Next sentence: Hey I could use this on something else...😃
if he needs parts CLASSIC TRUCK RESCUE is the source for good used parts
Love video
Good.job😄👍👍👏👏👏Nice
I seen guys use the front plow lift to lift cars and trucks off the ground. Just the front or rear. My dad used a western plow lift to pull a boulder out of a hole.
That Oshkosh is the Boss
Is there anyone at all who doesn't love that old Oshkosh?
I feel a bit sad that the old 54 model chevy truck is not worth fixing. I so did love the look of them. Its also the look of the very first 55 model trucks as their new bodies were not ready for production and so they used the 54 cab on the 55 for a few months. It made that model cab worth some very serious coin. I ain't sure of much in life but maybe someone whom is moderately moneyed up would enjoy bringing it back to life. That is not your style, you either fix or use to fix others rightfully so
I'm not giving up on it! I didn't bother trying to start it because I knew the motor was bad, but that it not too big of an issue. I'm not sure yet exactly how it will happen, but that cab will drive again, either with an engine upgrade or on a new chassis.
Love watching your projects, your work and the way you do it reminds me much of myself,lol. What about that TriMoto three -wheeler,I’d sure love to have that if you ever get ready to part with it. Keep up the good work and keep having fun cause when you’re having fun working I’m having fun watching.
That TriMoto is missing the engine, but shoot me an email to james@low-buck-garage.com if you want more details.
@LowBuckGarage is that a state of Connecticut seal on the door? I see the mud flaps say new haven body.
Imagine what this guy could get done with eager ambitious helper lol I’d imagine he could easily get twice the amount done
Moss and pine needles are Mother Nature's rust preventers.
100k special. Tow tug vs oshkosh
Love the show the dry humor & wit...plus common sense & fix all..balin' wire...never miss. Good stuff, keep em' coming, bus looks great and better. Old fart farmer talking& and love that oshkoshbgosh
You need a wrecker setup for your Osh Kosh!
That Oshgosh is a real beast. I wonder how it would do in a tug of war with the tow tug?
the knob on top of the dash IS for the windshield wipers
Winning!
All hail the algorithm 👍👍🤠
