6.0s arent the problem, it's the "mechanics" that work on them.
I agree with you 100% my friend I’m the same way we do our own work, but the stone thing made me laugh my ass off
Holy Crap, sorry to hear all this. That shop needs to be out of business. Good to see your back making 6.0 content. Cant wait.
Ill always work on my own stuff even if it means failing hard even more then once i know i learned and did it my self! I feel like u cant trust anyone anymore. Love the content tho man keep it up!
I agree with that !!
Dang bro I’m sorry to hear this but just a minor setback for a MAJOR COMEBACK
Thanks for watching and thanks for the positivity buddy
Definitely
Damn bro!!…that’s one of the worst feelings getting screwed big time!!👎🏽..looking forward to the rebuild…Aloha 🤙🏽
My dads 6.0 had a similar situation he got a new motor from J&k and they put the valve train out of the old motor with 300,000 miles on it and the motor ended up going down because of that
The og 6.0 king will return! 🤌🏻
Looking forward for the new build🔥
I was wondering where you when , well not you more your truck . Can’t wait to see your come back !!!
New motor bro! Glad to see you back with the 6.0. I went threw this somewhat. 2 shops and nothing good. Now I'm putting a motor in mine.
Me and Justin on that I don't want to call you out unless I Gotta type stuff 😂😂😂 sucks when people think we won't do it but glad you're doing it and letting people know!!
Yessirrrrr. I’m warning the whole world now. Put the scammer out of bidness hopefully !
LETS GO BRO!! You got this can’t wait to see what’s next!
You already know! Thanks for the support !!
I as well took my 6.0 to Danny, took him right at 6 months from start to finish and I was told it would be a 2-3 week job. Everytime I showed up they weren’t working and would always come up with some excuse for not getting it back to me. Eventually got it back and it still runs and drives good today but I also had to do quite a bit to get it to its current state. Him and his employees definitely aren’t
“top notch” like he says. Won’t be doing business with him again
No a positive note, check out Cory Wigginton at Wiggy’s Garage. He’s a very knowledgeable guy who actually knows what he’s talking about and doing. Also gets jobs done quickly but correctly
I feel for you man, had a similar experience here in Utah. At least the shop who screwed me is gone.
That is why no one works on my rig but me. There are many good shops, but I would rather trust myself.
No one can keep you down Justin
Bill Hewitt used to be the one to take a 6liter to. RIP.
Terrible it happened to you man, your trucks amazing. Excited for the 6.0 content again!
Thanks bro stay tuned !
You didn't let us down, shit happens. Glad you're back with the 6.0 content! Looking forward to watching
Thanks for watching man !
My son-in-law, works for international the Ford 6.0 L is the VT365 international engine i’m glad to see you using the O-ring heads, but that’s not your problem. Your problem now is the block now, do not trust that engine without proper machining it’s going to grenade and I can pretty much guarantee you that !
We about to find out. Putting new trans in this week , motors back together.
Those idiots wizz wheeled it. Honestly the best block prep is a 12” Ingersoll board sander with 80 grit paper. That grit gives you the right surface porosity to properly grip the gasket. The 12” sander makes sure you don’t make low spots. Keeping in mind your just removing old gasket and corrosion not milling the head. You also don’t need o rings, fel pro makes a great fire ring design in their gasket. The o rings damage your block.
Great info !
Sorry for the situation you in bro. I'm 2006 owner myself. Thank God I have truck source diesel down here in San Antonio that work on my truck. Wish you the best with getting your truck back up. I would be in prison in right now if I went through that
Sorry to hear about this mess Braddah. Been missing your videos. Looking forward to its rebuild. I’m sure it’s gonna be better than ever. From your viewer in Hawaii 🤙🏼
Aloha!!!!! Thanks for the support. Means the world.
Man you didn’t let anybody down you was actually the one let down. As a shop owner I can’t stand shops that rip people off giving everyone security issues with all shops. I’ve been doing this since 2013 and my name is everything to me! Sorry you have had the issues
Keep being the great mechanic you are ! We need more like you !b
I feel for you, I'm not the best wrench, but NOBODY touches my 6.0 but me. I wish you the best in the upcoming year.
Thank you!!!
I have a 2007 f 3 56 0 I could tell you nightmare after nightmare. You cannot trust anybody to work on your truck is sad. I wish you luck. I'll look For You videos.
Thanks so much ! New video just went live today ! Thanks for watching
I’m not going anywhere your my favourite 6.0 owner on UA-cam!!❤️
You're the best!
You won’t find a better shop than dieselwerks in Clinton Tn. Worth the drive.
sorry bro..im a big fan of yours and i feel your pain,i know you will come back from this with something killer so hang in their.looking foward to the rebuild. Aloha from HI.🤙👍
Appreciate the support ❤️
J&K engines, they’re taking care of me with a actual built 7.3 I mean built. You should go with them they won’t let you down
Been waiting for this!
Chin up brotha. Push on. Your followers are here.
Appreciate you more than you’ll ever know ! Each and every supporter I have. Means the world to me !
Rodeo garage hartselle AL best 6.0 powerstroke guy
Man I love my 6.0 do all the work myself but man they are a pain in the ass to work on......
Hi justin love the channel i was stoked when you were getting your truck built and it seemed like those guys were lagit i have the same color 6.0 truck and all that and had gone through some of the same shit put studes on the truck and bullet proofing it and still had problems man i feel for you what about sin city diesal ? thay look pretty la-git hope to see some more content and the out come with the truck
Thanks for watching tony , she’s almost back together now update video coming soon !
That's cool iam trying to decide on what route iam gona go with my 6.0 I had it studded also 4yrs ago and it burping coolest out degas bottle all roads point to headgaskets again so iam actually thinking about a long block I have 230 thounds miles on it and it's still a solid truck wish I could send you a picture same color as yours totally feel bummed for you also I was thinking of sending you some of my product to try on your truck if your interested hope to see to 6.o back on the road
Damn man hope everything lines out for you and we get to see you back to shows. BTW sir you need to make it to the lifted truck nationals show This coming year the show is amazing and has a ton of stuff to do.
I’ll sure try my best!!
damn bro that’s insane. I hope the comeback is insane and can’t wait. I’ve been wondering wtf happened to ya man.
Brother, I have all bad luck from shops with the dually, and it's been sitting for a while. We literally have only driven 20 times. The rest of the time it's been a shop or in my yard
Nowdays the good shops know that you need to o-ring the heads when do a new head gasket. And to check that the block is perfectly flat and not bowed at all.
That sucks dude!
i tried to warn you day one brother, as soon as i saw the first video i was like NOOOOOOO!!!! but you live and you learn bro....excited to see where it goes though man
Yeah man sadly when running a business there will be some negative reviews that’s inevitable. Once my truck was in a million pieces though hands are kinda tied. & thru the process I became what I thought was friends with the owner. But yessir you do live and learn. I’m just thankful I never paid him anything. Onto fixing it the right way. Thanks for watching !
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH yes sir, I completely understand…really any diesel shop in Frankfort is dog crap…I have one person I let work on my truck and he’s great and no one can beat his prices…if need be holler at me and I will get yall linked up…and your welcome bud your truck is goals for me…I know it will be back, and better than ever 🤙🏻🤙🏻
thanks for watching man!! & thx for warning me!
@@Redbeard_6.0h
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH you’re welcome bud
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not the original engine just with all ur stuff swapped on it
Makes you wonder if it’s the same block you dropped off
All I got to say is dam bro. As a mechanic this is sad.
Updates? I have to pull mine for head gaskets and looking for ideas of what to do while it’s out….
I will have more updates coming as they happen , just posted a current up to date video showing something you may be interested in doing. Thanks for watching
Sorry to hear this man, you’ll feel a lot more satisfaction doing everything yourself anyway, when it’s done. My truck has been down for a year as well. Due to machine shop mistakes so it’s almost back together now.
Question, what are you doing with a year old fuel? Are you going to flush at all or just run it?
I’m gunna just fill it up rest of the way with fresh and run it
Thanks for watching buddy !
Just because a shop let you down doesn’t mean you let us down man. Shi happens especially in the diesel pickup world, there’s lots of shady shops everywhere lmao it’s like a plague
Thanks man. Appreciate the support more than y’all know !
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH aye man no worries most if not all of us have been there in some way or another! It sucks but sooner than you’ll know it she’ll be back on the road better than ever bro!
that sucks. i’m sure you could’ve done a better job yourself. i did my whole motor including bottom end. by myself the first time and it hasn’t pushed coolant or leaked a drop of oil yet. and there’s not a single question about what’s in that engine. the shop did the same thing to the previous owner that happened to you. was a huge letdown to find stock parts when there was supposed to be the best of the best in it
I am 100% confident had I done it myself I would’ve had it done quicker & every single bolt would be torqued to spec. Also a lot cleaner work environment. I cannot tell you how nasty the oil and ipr and oil screens were from my motor just sitting open inside his shop for so long. It’s sad really. It’s back together and running fine now but does have a small oil leak I have to address. Not to mention the 2 fuel leaks , 1 boost leak , & trans leak I’ve had to fix. Not to mention him putting a junk converter in my trans and roasting my transmission. Lmao.
Moonlight diesel and fab can get you done right
J&K engines, fair prices and great people!! DONT CHEAP OUT!!
That’s where I’m going next probably if I end up having to do a new motor. Either that or I’m sending it to Wyoming and having blessed performance build me a new motor.
Matt at blessed is awesome to I got my motor from j&k Anthony and his team by far the best the best investment I ever made was going to j&k
Unfortunately lessons cost money and good ones cost lots......like the PBR shirt btw haha
Hahahah thanks Rodney
Are you re- powder coating your frame plates?
Take it to daylight diesel in daylight indiana. Owner name is caleb rice. I promise you won't have any regrets after taking it too him
man those rusty bolts realey make you think. i would of used ARP bolts just because it was taking so long
Yeah the next engine that goes in this truck will be perfect. This one is not. Lol
I delt with a shitty mechanic fucked up my truck so bad I filed a insirance claim. My truck was totaled.
It almost seems like they didn’t torque the heads.
That guy is a hack! You dont use sanding disks to clean the deck surface PERIOD.
Asheville engines!
See I try to trade u my 6.7 power stroke this 6.0 is still one of the baddest dam 6.0 on da tube bro 😎 you can eat off it so clean
Thanks bro she be back soon bad as ever
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH I’m sure you will kill it agin
Heartbreaking Justin.
you should buy a smart car and forget about the truck and give it to me HaHa MERRY CHRISTMAS
Hello Justin, could you find me a good Superduty?
Justin that sucks! where i come from,Danny would be the name of a new concreted sidewalk! & nobody would know where Danny went to! Just sayin'
Hahahah I know a few people who agree with you bob ! Lol
Sounds like somebody trying to save money just pay the better mechanic 😂😂😂
Well , it was free. & I offered to pay multiple times but the whole free ordeal was offered by him. He was actually the most recommended place here locally, some how. It wasn’t anything to do with saving money , he was supposedly “the best” 6.0 mechanic around here. Until he turned into a con man. Lol.
But will the 6.0 do better burnouts then the 6.2🤨🤨
Doubtful
Bro I feel you same thing happened to my 6.0 I ended up selling it at a junkyard for 500 bucks because could never get it running
Justin you mentioned j&k why didn’t you go to them I’m in Illinois and I got fucked by a shop here spent more then I bought the truck for and never fixed my truck was tired of dumping money and dealing with scum bag shops and mechanics so I decided to purchase a motor I found j@k on the diesel podcast and I called them up brother and hands down they took care of me like I was family did a hole block a few goodies and man my rig runs your truck is apart of your channel and content I say fuck the shop and bash Um period
This was completely free. So I haven’t lost out any money just time. & while yes time is money I’ve not had my truck for a while and that sucks. Thankfully I’ve been able to spend a lot of time with my son anyway so I’ve enjoyed the small break from UA-cam anyway. There are some good things that come from the bad. At this point financially I could still purchase a brand new J&K engine no worries & run it. & financially it wouldn’t be any different had I done that in the first place. But everything happens for a reason & that will be what I do probably if this engine goes out.
time for cummins swap
I’d contact Warren Diesel. I had a great experience with them getting a new trans in my truck. After they put in my new one they figured out my flex plate was bad and took the new one back off and gave me a new one without charging me and paid for me to stay at a hotel another night since I had pulled my truck 8 hours to let them do it and I would do it over 100 times again.
May have some content with them soon !
Brooooooo please tell me you have started legal action against these people?
No sir. Nothing to sue for really it’s a huge grey area since it’s took so long id rather just warn everyone and come back better. That’s what we gunna do playa !! Let’s goooo!!
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH 💪💯
Spending money to trash the engine??
At this point just throw in a Honda Civic engine so you can actually drive it for more then a few weeks!
Just buy a new engine from kdd?
One of the reasons why I work on my own stuff you’re not supposed to use any kind of flat wheel on the block or heads. Gouging and scratching basically caused those head gaskets to fail. Shouldn’t take that long. Taking that long what in the hell did he do but I can pretty much guarantee you that’s why those head gaskets failed. He ruined the block. Well I shouldn’t say ruined. I’d be pulling that engine out, completely tearing it down and decking the block or it’s gonna do it again I guarantee you that stone lol trust me know my friend pulled out of the truck I guarantee you it’s going to do it again that block needs to be decked machined Like I said one of the reasons why I do my own work on my own truck everybody I find, especially with a 6.0 will try to bend you over sideways and shove it up your ass horizontal just saying. Lol
Yeah he’s a garbage mechanic , con artist. Thankfully I didn’t pay him a dime except for some overpriced worn out parts I bought off him. Lol. No labor money though.
Dr.Phil
Send it to blessed performance and sue for money back
All the labor was free so I could make content for you guys. So I don’t have anything to sue for. Just didn’t get to bring you guys the content I would’ve liked to have brought my viewers.
It's just a damn engine....buy another one!! Don't let this slow you down .... Keep this in perspective......THIS IS WHAT A LOT OF 6.0 OWNERS GO THROUGH... You are no different 💯💯💯💯...
My suggestion..buy a two post lift and "hire " a well known 6.0 guy to work on it at home.. you don't need to drop it off at a shop... That's old thinking..
Your options are dwindling:
1)PBD
2)PowerstrokeHelp (Bill is now deceased)
3)DieselTechRon (Ron is now deceased)
4)KDD
5)Choate
That's it Dude! Get off the pot B4 anyone else dies!!
PSH bill died , what ? Really ?
@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH yessir, iced over in surgery for a massive heart attack. RIP.
Unfortunatly, yeah, tis true. He was my age.
On a lighter note. . . Not sure who PBD is, shoulda said BPD@@JUSTINHAWKSMITH
6.0 powerstroke gets a bad reputation because of trash mechanics.
Facts!
See what happens when you don’t let me work my magic🥲😭 I’m about to come out there and make it right lol
It’s back together now not sure if it’s right or not but we’ll find out when we have a working transmission lol
