This is why I believe that Farmers are some of the smartest people on the planet. Absolutely amazing how you just figure stuff out and make it work. I've enjoyed this series on this truck so much.
Scott never fails to impress me with his machining skills. Nick is the master wrench man.
Great job guys love watching your work, Excellent 👍
The adapter alone looked sweet !
Another..... Welker Family production !! Dad and sons "get'n it done" !! Another job Welker(well) done !!
The banter between the brothers is nothing that should be scripted or planned. Drive line//shaft..bonnet-hood stuff is funnny. Just keep it improve style. Good addition to your posts, and thank you. God Bless you all.
I suspect Dad is having the time of his life. No doubt, during the course of his life, he has seen tough times but here he is with all the gear working on a pretty complex project with his two very capable sons. Has every reason to be proud and well deserving of every sense of accomplishment that comes his way. Pleasing to see good things happen for good people. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks for another fantastic video Welkers!!!!!
It was interesting and informative and most entertaining for sure. Wow.
Scott, the piece of steel in your arm. Using the magnet to show off the piece of steel in your arm was neat.
I saw a reply which indicated that Dad, or Bob, did a bit of doctoring, and you where able to get the piece of steel out with the magnet once the doctor opened it a bit I am guessing. Good work everyone!!!!!
Your Dr license is in the mail. Thanks!!!!!’
So glad that Scott’s arm is better!!!!!!!!!
Now back to the truck. I am always amazed at the Welkers. If you need a part and can’t find one, then you all just make it yourself. Just amazing!!!!!! All of you are so talented.
Need a new truck, just step aside and Welkers will build it for you!!!!! Fantastic!!!!!!!!
The driveline pieces and redesigning the shifter system and redesigning the fan system and redesigning the turbo hookup and the radiator attachment pieces and The List Goes On and On and I AM TOTALLY AMAZED at what you are doing to get your truck built and running!!!!!!!!
Neat job on the shifter to make it work with the dash knobs and so on. Looked great when you were done Nick.
Scott , your work with the lathe and associated equipment is just awesome!!!!!! You make it look easy when in reality, it is not. You are very talented in this arena Scott!!!!! My compliments sir, and I say sir, out of respect!!!!!!!!
Getting close to ready to turn the switch. Yeah!!!!!
I noticed while watching this video, that you had just over 18,000 viewers!!!!! Wow!!!!!
Unbelievable!!!!!!
Guess I had better close this comment. Probably running out of space-ha!!!! I write out of the Respect I have for the Welkers, Bob, Nick, Scott!!! Colby also.
Thanks for everything. Outstanding video. Can’t wait to see it run. Take care.
The Iowa farm boy. Steve
😊👍👋🙏💕🇺🇸
👍
Bob and Colby are going to be trucking in style. Good Job Welker Team. 👏👏
You guys are sooo creative. I am amazed at how you solve problems. Leg Arms talents with the lathe are incredible. For your information, the power plant in a truck is called the “ENGINE”. Your welcome Leg Arm
So why do you put motor oil in it?
Those were two very cool projects you used to start the video - correcting the shifter angle and the spacer you made to bring in the other fan they show the kinds of different skills farmers have to develop so they can make farming work financially. Those skills were evident to me as we farmed when I was a teen there in Montana. It showed me that I had design and engineering skills. I admire your "sticktoitiveness" in these projects. I have my own collection of metal and parts yard (much to my wife's chagrin). I LOVE watching you guys do these projects.
Great job on the drive shaft, drive line, engine, motor, gear shift, gear lever, fan, whirlie gig, bonnet and all the other parts.
You left out ....🦿🦾🦾Scott's "magnetic" personality...🤣🙃🤣🙂...as Bob said ...Welker "fan" club
Super happy to see leg arms is getting over his depression!! Keep going it's always darkest before the morning 💕❤
Thank you for your shows. Nice to watch honest and hard working Americans thank you
Hi guys. Love the channel, and the humor. I’m not certain about this but you might have a problem with the top radiator braces. The engine (motor) (hahaha) will move sideways when under heavy load but the radiator will stay static causing cracking somewhere. This might be why the original braces were attached to the firewall. Only a thought, it might not be a problem at all.
That adapter is the cat's meow. You dudes have way to much fun in the shop. Cheers!
Over here in western ND. I follow the radar for rain often. Can't help but zoom out a bit to see if you're getting rain, too. Good luck on the crop. We get rain...almost always you got rain, too.
Unfortunately we didn't. It has bypassed us nearly every time, sliding by within fifteen miles. Shelby has received only 2.5 inches of moisture this entire year. It is the worst drought yet.
Omgoodness Scott behind Nick when he was yelling "shaft". No!
I was crying w laughter.
I needed that thanks fellas
Scott and his lathe; a match made in heaven!
Your dad sure taught you boys well. You guys are going to have a nice truck at a great price when you get all done.
Hopefully You are still getting some rain and for a change will have a good year.
You guys are absolutely amazing. When this truck project threw a ringer at you, you simply figured it out and compromised. Thanks for allowing us to go on this journey with you. I hope this "new" truck will go a long time and do you a good job. I don't see why it wouldn't.
or IMPROVISED .... was you lookin for IMPROVISED instead of COMPREMIZED ??? eh... either iether oranges apples grapes figs & reasons!!! LOL eh rasions too... lol
@alexmikhael5061 Apparently you do not speak fluent hillbilly.
THE HEINZE 57 TRUCK OF THE CENTURY. GOOD JOB GUYS
I'm seriously impressed at yall's ability to not curse while you fight and wrench on your equipment! I start cursing at the slightest inconvenience.
The 3406 used a mount that bridged over the valve cover, in the middle of the motor for the rad support arms. Got one in the back of the shop at work
Awesome display of skills there guys, absolutely bloody awesome.
Thanks for sharing! 😊
Scott, you have such a magnetic attraction...LOL😎👍✝. Update on the new homes and lake house.
Planning on posting home reveals sometime this year!
Nice job on the shifter and the adapter for the fan
The joys of putting a different ENGINE in a chassis. Best way with stick is bolt it on, then heat it with torch and bend how you want it, much easier than put it in press, cut and weld. Etc. you’re making good headway. Cheers
It's a motor . It's mounted to the frame with motor mounts and uses motor oil
Engine mounts and Engine oil 😄
Electric motor gas engine 😅
Scott is one smart guy.
Farmers = Engineers, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, businessmen etc etc. Same the world over.
Nicks a different, funnier guy when working with Scott... Awesome team effort.
Creeper for sure. So you can Creeper along.😮 have a great afternoon.
Ouch, don't want to make things worse, but you need to use a sterile scalpel blade to open the wound slightly to let the fragment out. Use the magnet while you cut, and the fragment should just pop out.
Update on this in the next video. But he did get it out and the magnet is the hero!
Thankyou doctor
I was wondering during why you didn't grab the front universal complete from donor truck and install on other driveshaft. Did you not pick width difference until after you had altered original driveshaft?
What was it in your arm? And when did it happen?
Always , always replace the strap kits for u joints 12:36
Looks like a fun project fellas!!! Great show today!! Now....if you'd like some foxes you can come to my place!! They got 100 chickens of mine!!
Also many mis-adjust clutch too thinking adjusting linkage rod only. This setup started in 1987 to 2024 model year (dec 31 2023) yes long run of that cab design. Set throw-out bearing to clutch brake at 1/2 inch. Then adjust free travel at 1 1/2 to 2 inches and then with pedal fully depress should be finger width off the floor (the bend in clutch pedal rod). If it goes to the floor or you hear it hitting something metal its hitting frame rail. Then its junk clutch box (bell cranks and linkage rod) and most likely bad front cab mounts. If any of bell cranks or linkage bad inside clutch box you will wish you did them before putting transmission in. NOOOO we don't change clutch box out its hucked in place when cab is built. We change out bell cranks and pins. Yes I have change whole clutch box and it's impossible to huck it back in place. You end up using bolts and thats fun too.
One of my Dad's friends, had the head of a nail under the skin in his bicep. It'll heal and be a nice conversation piece to show your kids friends when they are in high school 🙂
One of the things I love about Welker Farms is the make do and mend attitude, adapt and overcome.
Nick I know you were kidding but a moter is Electric and an engine is an internal combustion lol love your videos and god bless the farmers ❤️❤️❤️ Sam
Add steam; external combustion, to the engine lineup. . .
But you use motor oil in it and register the thing at the Motor Vehicle Division.
mo·tor

noun
a machine, especially one powered by electricity or internal combustion, that supplies motive power for a vehicle or for some other device with moving parts.
Is love how resourceful you guys are. From be a farmer to mechanic to home builder. I do wonder some times if it would be better for you guys to just buy the right part rather than jury rigging something together? Either way, keep up the great work. For years now, you have been my favorite channel. .
When you have tight margins like farmers, every dollar saved could mean the difference between being in the black or in the red. Plus there are time considerations. If you have to wait, that's time not farming or harvesting.
The fan will pull towards the radiator so you could take some off the spacer and still not worry about hitting the balancer. Fan will only flex forward.
Did the same thing working on a u joint 20 years ago went through coveralls and a shirt sleeve didn't know it even happend till 3 days later when it got infected had to get it cut out no fun
No parts no problem! Just build them. You guys are awesome! Not sure why they call it a creeper and I've never picked cherries with my cherry picker either.
Mutant Mower and the FrankenBuilt! Awesome video and skill!
Love the nickname!
I was holding my breath so that drivelineshaft wouldn't fall on Scott. You're welcome!
Ha Brother
Back in the day
The only keeper that was sold was cald jippers keeper it was all wood with the old stile slanted wheels and the wheel leg was bent like an S
Almost Google it there really need
Thank for your videos I am subscribed
Sure hope the clearance works out for the fan. I did an old Louisville years back putting a 3208 in a gas truck. I had a pretty tight fit like that and it actually flexed the rad into the fan and chewed a big circle in the rad fins. I ended up making extended frame mounts and moved the rad ahead about an inch. Truck is still running today!
Need to name that big boy the blue mule. Leg arms got some skills.
Hey not sure if you guys will see this lol but if your ever wanting to change the look up a bit for the exhaust on that 377 for cheap, look for a set of factory 389 exhaust tips and set them all the way into the muffler! Guys always got them posted for sale when they put straight pipes on there's and generally cheap! Always like the look of just straight 45 cut exhaust tips!! Gives it a clean look and don't have to go buy straight pipes and if the get smacked up just go look for another set lol
I thought that Nick was the toughest nut you've ever fought. You guys amaze me. Awesome work. Please stay safe, and God bless.
''FAN CLUB'' That one came naturally, and made me LMAO....
This truck and all the various parts & pieces from this truck and that truck, some new and some old, reminds me of Johnny Cash's song, "One piece at a Time" Cadillac. Love it!!
Great job guys. She is coming together nicely.
Good thing hole for the shifter to go thru floor was long enough, was worried shift tower would past hole and need a completely different shifter! Great job Men!!
18:05 now that made me chuckle, well done Mr Welker, well done XD XD
Someone is pretty darn good at cutting NICE circles free hand with the plasma! (not me, that for sure) Impressive!
I love that Leg Arms has serious skills with an old school mechanical lathe.
Bob Welker and comedian Mark Normand are my favorite pun makers. Fair warning to those who don’t know, Mark Normand is a very raunchy comic but he’s also hilarious.
Mister Scott I have a peace of ujont in my chest from doing the same thing it has been there for about 14 years you would have thought I was going to bleed to death when it happened my wife wanted me to go to the doctor but I said I was good lol love your videos be safe and have a great day and god bless the farmers Sam
I have a piece of metal lodged in my throat, not penetrating, from a steel pin on a backhoe. Been there for 39 years now. A magnet will hang from my throat! Doctor said “I don’t think it’s in there” . No X-ray. I didn’t discover the fact that it was for around 10 years. It’s freaky but you’ll be fine. Just can’t have an MRI now!
Scott is one step closer to becoming Magneto!
I enjoy watching you work on this motorengine and making this drivelineshaft work. Let's hope the bonnethood will still fit! And good thing this truck does not have a trunkboot. 😁🤘
Truly superb how these guys make it happen to equipment to move along!
I must say YOU GUYS are just amazing at what YOU can acomplish
Dad and Mom should be very proud of those boys Well dad too They all have so much Hands-On knowledge it's amazing
Fluid film is very expensive up here in Canada. Good stuff. Thank you for the videos.
We overhauled a t 800 with cummins that was 600 hp then when did the overhaul we took hp to 800 and we didn't change the air filter from original and it worked great pulling dump or walking trailers in dusty conditions your new truck looks great
The driveline is any thing from the transmission to and including the rear end. The drive shaft is the drive shaft.
Oh that magnet is the coolest thing i have seen in a long time. Must be a good size piece. I shattered a bearing race one time and had to give up digging for bits and got to a doctor. I remember him telling me i almost had it followed by the question, were you digging for it with a shovel. Wish i had that magnet
The fan adaptor was truly a fantastic design and implementation!!!
Yes Nick bolts for clutch linkage rod turn buckle are 3/4 so is alum rod and jam nuts.
Air cleaner size for 377 far bigger than 387/587 that had 600 hp engine too. Just going to have to replace air cleaner more often. Air intake for 377 on both sides of hood
Thank you Nick. Really is minor, but it's a submariners bone of contention, when you live in the machine.... "motors" are electric ie alternator motor and "engines are combustion". Minor pet peeves but thanks. Love the terminology battle, keep it going boys!!!! Ha ha ha
Such a magnetic personality...all of you!
That is the greatest that you put the date at the start of the video. I'm always wondering how long ago this stuff happened.
Thanks
Dang Leg Arms. Nice work on that fan adapter!!
Cool to see you back in the shop building stuff ! 💪👍🏼
That was cool. I did something similar but it was a piece of wire in hand a when I squeezed my hand the wire popped up. Starting to look like a semi
Sounds like u need a truck salvage yard . Engine trans combination and correct application. Motor ? Where’s the x tension cord ? Engines run on fuel !
A baby creeps along the floor on its belly, pulling forward with its arms, therefore the creeper for a mechanic "creeping" along the floor.
Scott using the "Close your eyes and hope" eye protection system! As for the creeper, it looks to have been named a creeper by the inventor Joseph Heckman, United States Patent 2148199, 1939.
Nick knows motors run on electricity. Scott(leg arms) love all the customer work. You are a hell of a mechanic. Get Nick to clean that shop. Lol. Love your dad's humor too. Have seen every video since about six month before Scott got hurt by the Bud. I start watching because of the forty five year old tractors. Glad u tube helps with the home builds. Sweet equity helps a bunch too. Channel is great. Seed cleaner build was great. Nice that yall don't buy seed.
You three are very talented I enjoy watching you guys
Looking good men. Just a thought from an ase tech.........the radiator should be braced to something stationary, not the engine. Hopefully the radiator tanks won't crack. Thnx for the fun video. Blessings.
Safety glasses will be really good when you are under running that impact. Broken arms heal being blind just sucks .
You need to get a Neodymium magnet to yank that metal out!!! :)
Holy man. I always find Legarms working with the lathe is something impressive
Another project that your family has mastered. Thanks for sharing your experience with us all. 🎉
Love watching y’all videos!! Awesome job y’all doing on the truck!! From La.!!👍🙋🏼♂️😁
You will actually find that the air filter under the hood will plug faster than the external filters. My old 379 i had I'd change air filters about twice a year, the 386 I have now you have to change the under hood air filter at every oil change.
Motor mounts Vibrations Issue ? Radiator
I was thinking the same. I would think vibration on rough roads would be a problem.
My 07 International 9400 has a single air cleaner under the hood like that in front of a 565 Cummins and it does just fine.
Under the bonnet there is a motor which is connected to a gearbox box, than the tail shaft to the diff.
I still have my old one from 40+ years ago. I called it a creeper.
Very impressive Guys. Great fabricating and just using your head. Great video
Leg arms, you’ll know if that sliver of steel is still in there if you have to get a CT scan. I have a sliver right below my elbow. It got unpleasantly warm. Dig it out if you can.
Thank you for the video.
Thank you for putting dates in your videos.
🎼 I am stuck on a magnet cause magnet stuck on me!” 🎶
Gotta say that fan adapter Scott made is an absolute work of art. Yes I like the shifter too Nick😊😊😊
10:21 reach out to SH Tube from Corbin, Kentucky. They make some of the coolest shifters and grilles in the trucking market. An Rob seems quite knowledgeable.
Whern you guys get done w/ that remodeled Peterbuilt, it needs to be called Hook McGluke bercause it is one !
Love the Fabrication Skills!
What you call a motor is actually an engine. I taught this stuff and worked with mechanical stuff for 60 years. The engine is a power source like a hydraulic pump which drives a hydraulic motor.
Leg arms is the man, and you too, Nick 💪🏻! Keep up the hard work 💪🏻! It's coming together beautifully 😍
