I have one. It’s a 2000 with an Allison 5 speed. I drive it every day. I absolutely love it. The only two draw backs are that top speed is 59mph and the ride is so rough. I got passed by a school bus on interstate!!! Anyway, great video. Hope that you enjoy your truck as much as I enjoy mine!!!
Stubby is so cool! I want to see it go down the track to see what 1/4 mile times you can get. Maybe even a tug-of-war with some of the Ford , Chevy and Dodge guys! Woot!
Now that sounds like a plan !
I see a tug of war challenge video in the future 👍🏼👍🏼
I've been checking out your channel for a while now, (I got hooked right away on the free plane video lol).
I can relate to all the things you do because I do them as well, I'm always out rescuing something that's been sitting for years but I've never really documented any of them, And as a matter of fact I just scored a 1988 GMC6000 EX U-Haul, 26' cab and chassis lo-pro, all original and it has a little bonus, it's equipped with the factory EZ-load option, the rear is airbagged, pull a knob on the dash and it's lowers the rear substantially for easy loading/unloading, it has an engine/ belt driven compressor with all airlines intact, it's been sitting for 17yrs, (I WILL MAKE IT RUN AGAIN!)
I'm thinking about making a lowrider stubby myself, I have everything I need to bag the front as well.....you've inspired me to document this whole thing, thanks!
Factory service manuals do wonders and keeps the guessing to a minimal. Makes me wonder why people like to reinvent the wheel!
The plane brought me to the channel but this build!!!! Hope your Chanel grows can’t wait to see what you have coming up 👏🏼 💪🏼
Heck. Same here bud! Amazing channel! I saw the videos from the RV and up. 😁
I drove these back when they were new for a towing service. We had non low profile flatbeds with the T444E & Allison. We also had a monster of a wrecker with a DT466E and a 6 speed manual. I loved these trucks.
Nice rig. They make adapter to use semi rims. They look sweet done that way
Agreed …. Some 22.5’s would look sweet !
YesSiRr!! Mate... wattA MACHINE!! It's a BEAST!! I LOVE the look of that truck.
Saw a 7.3 with two rods out the side drive six miles back to the shop in a badly overloaded 450 Super Duty welding truck. The beast got Us home 👍
That truck bed looks beautiful on it, no better fit.
Man! That is on BAD kid right there, dude!
A low Rider, too!? It can't get any better than this ... sweet, man, sweet ....
Keep bringing the videos. I like it.
I have worked on several of these trucks, one issue I ran into is the factory ecu for the 444e will only allow for 2400 rpm, the truck I was working on had a 7 speed manual, I modified a harness From a 1999 f250 6 speed 7.3 and used the ford idm and pcu. Then I was able to purchase a tuner for the ford truck . and the same engine would turn 3,800 rpm. The ford is also is a split shot on the injectors, I used a set of 100hp injectors
I bet she ran really good with that setup…. That’s been pretty much the same plan with this one 👍🏼
Glad you are figuring out the harnesses.
Good evening, The air plane got my attention, but now this really does. Thank you for taking the time to video. Steve from N.B
Man this is what i loved from the US Truck...Old but they still look strong as they were like this one....👍👍
Alison Transmissions have been around for a long time. They used to be owned by GM, but most commercial vehicles with automatic trans have an Alison. Until a few years ago you could buy an F650 Ford with a Cummins engine and an Alison trans. The smaller Ford trucks had powerstrokes. Gm, Ford, International, Kenworth etc...all of the 26K GVWR and larger have the option of engine and trans combinations. Some of the Internationals probably had Detriot Diesels. lol
You are indeed correct. There’s some internationals with Detroit Series 50 engines. The smaller brother of the 60 Series Detroit in Big Semi’s. They are 4 cylinder with BIG POWER and torque for being a 4 cylinder. Basically a big 60 Series Detroit with two cylinders chopped off. And they’re extremely reliable. Really realllyyyy good engines.
Allison Transmissions are absolutely bomb proof
Abandoned plane brought me to your channel and always wait for those videos ...while waiting i have seen other projects and you do commendable job taking passion to next level!!
Very cool truck love that the power stroke is actually international’s did know that one of the top trucks here for decades in Australia 🇦🇺
My grandfather bought two AA180s brand new in 59 sorry I had to sell the one I kept couldn’t restore it by myself it went to the son of the driver that got the other new truck to drive when he bought them
Great job mate 👍💯🇦🇺🦘🦘🦘🦘
Thank you Simon. These trucks are definitely heavy duty !
Some 238/80’s would be on my list for that build
Didn't know International made the 7.3 makes me love it that much more!!
Exhaust plenums, cams, injectors, 5 inch turbo back, and a nice tune will get you going.
What’s a plynom?
@@HJZ75driver *plenum misspelled, sorry. A set of intake pieces, they regulate airflow into the engine/intake valves. The size of the hole in the plenum plays a big part in performance of the engine and how much air it can move in. More air allows more fuel = more power.
I think I went with a 238cc hybrid injector on my 99 7.3 might be wrong on cc, with the T500 hpop and programmer she sings now it's unreal!! The 7.3 with stacks is gonna sound unreal amazing project brotha👍🤘👍
I have the exact same truck got for the same price. Good info now mine will be getting built as well lol maybe 375-400hp for me
Man a custom built “pipeliner style” flatbed would look killer on that rig
That’s exactly what I’m thinking
Randomly come across your channel and wasn’t disappointed!
As a 25 year old. that works on these all day at a independent shop. So fun!
Dude that thing is gangster I love that truck it has a gangster stance
Can't wait to see what you do with Stubby and the other builds... Wouldn't mind building something similar out of a crew cab International... So can have a comfortable, heavy duty family truck
Super single on the back look sick
Yes they also made the 6.0 as well. Allison makes a real good transmission. This truck is amazing bud.
Thank you !
Not surprised to see this Ford and International were partners in truck manufacturing and used the same platform I think until like 2014. Early f-650 and 750’s had 7.3s as well. I’m sure it’s the same chassis in this truck and not hard to put in.
International did make a bomb ass motor!
That would make a awesome tow rig it’s something I would love to have
This is absolutely 🔥🔥🔥
If it was a 4 door it would be my perfect truck. Thing is a tow beast.
Nice truck
It was never a secret that the 7.3 power stroke was an international
Every power stoke from 1994 to 2010 is a Navistar international engine
That’s right even the 6.0 and 6.4
Kamaal kar diya Vin Diesel ke aage chacha
I have always liked those trucks. I would like one with a skirted flat bed. But man yours looks bad ass.
GREAT JOB GUYS NICE JOB ON VIDEO KEEP ON ROCKING
Looks like it'll be a cool build. Can't wait to see more episodes. Also, Ford is the only diesel truck manufacturer to build their own engine in house. As of 2011, they ended their partnership with Navistar, formally International, and design and build the Power Stroke exclusively in house. GM's Duramax, manufactured by Isuzu, is almost a GM engine as GM owns controlling stock in Isuzu making it a defacto GM company. Dodge still uses Cummins to design and build their engines, the only quality thing on their trucks, oops! Did I say that out loud!?🤣
😂🤣
Well they will all break it usually depends on operators as to how long they will last and I'm on my 5th dodge truck I'm kinda partial myself
Those Low Pro's look good with stacks on them. Good luck on the build(s)! Let us know if you need us.
They absolutely do look awesome !
We’ll definitely need your help getting it tuned.
I just discovered your videos my friend. Very enjoyable. I like all the rebuild type videos, like yourself,vice grip garage ect. I believe back in the day Allison was part or GM,along with Detroit Diesel. Now Detroit is part of Mercedes-Benz,I'm not sure about Allison. And some years ago,Ford had a fall out with International. Now Ford diesels are a in-house design.
Hey Erik ! Thank you for watching !
You are right I was going to say the same thing
Very cool and unique truck. Nice job.
Whistling diesel would love this guy, you'll nvr break this"... Lol
I agree, medium duty is a better platform for a truck build .lot better than a pickup.
That is such a nice looking truck
I would absolutely buy this off you!! I am now looking for one of these lol I have a trucking company so I'm going to put a fithwheel on and make a car hauler.
Love the channel brother. Keep up the awesome videos and be Safe out there.
Nashville, Tennessee
Thank you Tow Man !
Need to junk the rubberband trans (545)and throw a 643 trans with a lockup converter. differant flexplate but shifter and kick down solenoid hooks up the same. trans is a little longer so you will have to shorten the drive shaft. The rear diff is an S135 and is most likely extremely low geared. Aftermarket makes several better (higher) gearing choices.
Sweet truck
Hey man. Stumbled on your channel yesterday by a random recommend for the Cessna 401a, went through your library and see that you're not really "new" to youtube, but only have about six months worth of videos. Started at the beginning and have been slowly working my way through, and I'm genuinely curious; Are you *new* to creating youtube videos? The reason I ask is your content is absolutely great, your video/cam quality is fantastic, audio is perfect, editing is on point, and you're very enthusiastic along with well spoken with what you do. Shit, your very first video of the camper made me think you've been doing this for years.
Anyway, great channel and really good content. Can't wait to see what you do!
Wow…. Thank you for sharing and being so inspirational….. This is all new to me. I have a great camera man and editor and I have a host of folks who have been involved with UA-cam for a long while who have helped along the way as well. Thank you for spending your time with us and being a part of Rebuild Rescue 👍🏼
The algorithm unites us gentlemen
En Guatemala los camiones es DT444 Y DT466 son muy cotizados y de excelentes prestaciones, saludos 🇬🇹
I have a 4900 chassis cab shorty. 466 with 6+1 trans. Fun to pull up next to a brodozer at a light and casually bump the throttle even though I wont win any races
Ooooo.. I want it sooo bad...I'd turn it into a wrecker or I'd sell everything to get a nice travel trailer to live in with my wife.. 😁
Why tf is his voice SO satisfying to listen to?
Damn it now I need to make one of these....
Dope truck
Did you modify the frame to fit this bed or did someone else do it? Working on converting a 4700 I just purchased into a pickup like this and it I just can’t seem to find any good write ups or videos on the process of chopping the frame and installing a bed. Thanks
Thanks for the content
Another bomb on the chevy guys, the Duramax diesel is a joint venture between Isuzu/GM the Dmax.
We call it a Japamax 🤣😂
Good running engines though !
I've never met a duramax owner that didn't know the engine was made by izuzu
Allison builds a lot of really good transmissions. The AT545 isn't one of them. It's an overheating piece of crap when used for anything other that fairly level city delivery type routes...aka school buses use them.
Who would just leave that setting... I ask, as I then have a flashback to my boss's brand new two year old Ford Excursion V10 that just sat out behind our shop for 15 years with like 10,000 miles because he could not afford to keep it fuelled up! LOL It was a right mess when we pulled it out, he sold it for pennies, someone got it going again I assume.
Looking for a sunvisor like ypur where did you get that one, its from a different truck or custom made,and the bed came out from which truck, nice rig brother 👏👏
What happened to Stubby?
I have been waiting to build one for a very long time way before it was cool build medium duty trucks.
It a killer looking truck keep it up.
From what I've heard, GM doesn't _actually_ have Allison transmissions in their Allison-branded Duramax trucks. Because, that's just what it is - Allison *_branded._*
They're not really built by Allison. But they have allowed GM to put their brand on it. All it means is that Allison has approved the design or whatever.
actually bought my 7.3 powerstroke because It wasn’t made by ford and the t444E had a great reputation my truck is manual too
Love these things !
Couple of notes: 1) my '04 4300 has 19.5 Alcoa wheels with 10 bolt pattern. So they are available. Maybe just an axel swap. I'd send pics, but the 'comments' do not allow. 2) Allison is owned by GMC. Asins (used in the Dodges) is owned by Toyota. 3) IH's wiring is a nightmare, or at least in '04 it is. I press the Fog rocker switch which pokes a micro switch which alerts the sub circuit board which tells the computer which turns on the fog lights. (Whew). I am ripping all that out and going to hard switches. (I'm old fashion that way). BTW - If you want to change what the switches do, IH will sell you a $600 program which lets you re-program the computer. 4) The IH engine is pretty bullet proof. Ford insisted on more horsepower and tweeked up the engines. That is why there are complaints about short life and injector failure. The stock International engines will run for ever.
I'd go with an inverter for 120 and 240V AC as well as a generator for tools and what not.
Wow! Can't believe the previous mechanic left you that wiring mess! Who does that??Hope you can figure that all out, sir!
This is such a sick build, I am actually seeing if there's a way to do this here in Australia
Thank you Nick 👍🏼
Stud pilot or hub pilot. (International parts guy here) also love the setup.
What if you put a pro charger take the turbos off put the pro charger in, or would that be overkill? I would only recommend one but since It has been done if you're looking up on UA-cam 7.3 l, Gasser on tune Put up some impressive numbers But I would only guess to me only use one Because I think it would definitely be overkill if There were 2 on that motor. Seeing what it done with the gas 7.3 l Untuned I wonder what it would do with a diesel 7.3 l?
You may struggle with your injector selection and modification abilities to the engine, tuning if kinda iffy to get for the t444e version of the 7.3. I would recommend talking to a guy named Dan Kropinak with SDK performance
Allison transmissions are built for army privates. They are solid.
Military vehicles also use Alison transmission and CAT engines.
That would be a big negative on the power stroke. That name is a ford brand for the design of the 7.3 turbo diesel that Navistar manufactured for them. The motor in this truck is a T444E which means turbo charged 444 cubic inch electronic injection. This motor makes less power than the variant made for ford but cranks more torque. It does have the exhaust back pressure valve or warm up valve as you called it. The lp and lpx versions sit low for fuel economy as they are meant to be long haul trucks that are road use only. The standard 4700 sits higher to be used in rougher terrain. The brake system is not electric over hydraulic. It is hydraulic with hydro boost and the hydro system has a backup electric motor built into it in the event of a power steering pump failure. Please study your vehicles before spreading disinformation to those who might not know. Anything above 210 hp which is the highest factory rating on these engines will greatly reduce reliability. These engines come in variations of 170hp, 190hp and 210hp.
I want the Austin!
That AT545 is pissing its pants at the prospect of 500HP lol
I'm not even kidding I'd daily drive that 100%
Planning on getting a 7.3 excursion and swap in an MT643 transmission in it.
I want this truck!
Wild. I need it 😂
This would be cool airplane tug... :D :D
If anyone can do it, rebuild rescue can!
Thank you Kevin!
blessed performance sells nice 7.3 kits and updated parts give them a look
Brought here by the 401... what ever happened to the other projects hinted at in this video? Sidelined for the plane instead?
Hybrid 230s at least for injectors, adrenaline or terminator hpop, decent size turbo... Bottom end should hold up assuming it in good shape should be around 400hp and if u spring for a camshaft, you should get damn close to 500hp right there
Ditch the Allison, and put a 13 speed behind it. No only gives you amazing top end, you also gain fuel economy as well, because you have enough gear to let the rpms come down. Plus, it takes advantage of the massive rear end under it.
Eaton Fuller, 13 speed. You'll need onboard air to run the splitter, but it gives you so much. As well as being reliable.
That would be an awesome transmission !
Plus, with on board air, you gotta look into Bostrom seating. Air ride with lumbar supports. They're designed to put miles on them.
Was a trucker for 10 years (1,200,000 miles), but was pulled off for having issues with my CPAP (sleep machine). Driven everything except fuel and explosives. Doing this lil rig up big rig style only adds to the wow factor. Some aluminum fuel tanks (take offs from a junk yard, then polish to perfection. It'll really make her pop, plus international has polished side tank with aluminum steps to add to the being factor.
Bling factor, sorry autocorrect
Love to have that in crewcab
The obs Ford bed is the best option
Yes, its common knowledge about the 7.3 is international.. stamped on the valve cover in mine.
a better idea is to remove all of but 1 leaf spring ( remove the rubber bushings out the spring eyes and machine and install stainless steel bushings utilizing larger diameter bolts with holes drilled into them and the bushings to be able to grease them ) and fabricate brackets and mounts to install air bags ( old school semi`s use that very system ) using the factory leaf springs is a far simpler system
The Allison transmission was NOT A FORD MADE TRANSMISSION.
The 6.7 was the first diesel ford designed in-house since the 60’s the 6.0 and the 6.4 were international engines also
This is the rig fer hauling the camper trailer
Subd, I'm building an 86 f700 4x4 with 395's, 6.83 gears. Swapping a crew cab, 370ci swapping to T444e, tilt deck will be installed.
Hey Darcy !
I really want to see that thing when it’s done !
I will say one thing. The earlier year Allison’s in the duramax trucks were good no doubt, but once GM took over on that end their quality went stagnant and or down. They’re severely lacking in the newer trucks, the new 10 speeds or even the 6r140 transmission are absolutely killer.
Every single ford guy knows who makes the engine.
