- Y'all have been asking for a more in depth look at the Top Hand... well here it is! Make sure you check out Duddies Adventure for all the action this truck has seen on the trails of HIdden Falls Adventure Park, Wolf Caves Offroad park and even Moab. #TopHand #PowerWagon #W150 @DuddiesAdventure
Well I'll be.......you did it, you let the cat of the bag and stepped out of mysterious shadows!!!! Well....there's no going back now, so you might as well keep doing videos. We now know for sure you and Jeremy are brothers!!!! You can actually make appearances now on Duddie's channel scolding him, teaching him, molding him. That is a badass truck, sounds awesome too!!! This was awesome!!!
Thanks Dude, I will try to get some more Dodge content rolling soon
Holy shit!!! Hell froze over right?
pretty much lol it is less than 50 degrees in Texas at the moment
I love that you put a birdbath hood on there, and the 445 transmission.
Yep I love the 445 Transmission
That is a badass truck would have never thought a 318 I'm impressed
Thanks for watching
Hell yea, I always love the utiline beds.
love it excellent story
Lol its your truck
Awesome build!! Love the fact it was your Dads truck! Where have you been with this great content!! Keep it coming😁👍
This is a right proper Ford K10 my friend!! The Camaro parts really tie the truck together!! Also, I subscribed!! Can't wait for the next vid in 2023!!
Thanks for watching dude
Very cool its been in the family this long. Definitely purpose built now. Thanks for sharing and take care ✌
Thanks for watching
Great video love the top hand. Love the bed, looks like a solid build. It's pretty sweet.
Thanks man
Can’t wait to see some rubbin of some rocks on those fenders
I try not too but Duddies Adventure shows all the fails inevitabley
I have always liked the 4 headlight tin grill dodges! I have a 68 D100 that is patiently waiting her turn to come through the shop.
Nice work sir
They are my favorite also. Thanks for watching
Duddie sent me says you got trucks and good tools n shit so I'm here! 🤘
Do it to it... Mopar or nocar
The birdbath hood is now a cat nap bed lol!!
absolutely!
It's so cool
Thanks dude!
Jeremy Hunt? The Dodge Whisperer? Two screen names........ But are they the same person?
Damn! I love that truck! Keep making videos. Get Larry involved.
When are you test driving your RC out here? Can't wait to see it on the road
@@TheDodgeWhisperer it leaks oil worse than my 12v. It seriously gets 2mpg. It needs a timing chain. I think it has a burned valve or something And most of all it needs new seats.
With all that said...it runs really good. I drive it all over the lake. I need to pull the engine, reseal it, new timing chain, exh manifold gaskets and figure out why it runs so damn rich. Ill bring it by soon though
Finally! I hope you keep the videos coming. Thanks for sharing and I'm subscribed 👍
Thanks for the sub!
Sweeeet. I got a 79 ramcharger I'm doing a 1ton swap on. Only truck I got is an 81 mil spec snow commander 440.
Very cool truck man...thanks for the walk around...I was drillin Duddie for info...he must have known this was coming or you can congratulate him for not letting the cat out of the bag. Good to see your face isnt actually as rough as portrayed in Duddies vids ( pixelated )...although the resemblance to Jeremy might make me wanna hide it too :) Thanks for sharing, this is a really capable thing offroad...look forward to your next vid...hopefully not a 2 year wait ... hahaha
thanks man stay tuned!
The bed is a really cool and subtle way to keep your fenders out of harms way. My vote for the next walk around is Keystone, that thing sounded mean on that one appearance on Duddie's Adventures. Although the Top Hand sounds great for only a 250hp engine. What are you using for resonators on the Top Hand?
Keystone is my choice too. It has a great history. The resonators are vibrant brand from summit racing
I'm like lol he's got baramaro parts sprinkled all over 🤣 It's absolutely a killer truck DW, 318 sounds great, truck looks perfect and did you and Jeremy get separated at birth. Show us more awesome Mopars DW!!!!
Thanks dude there is some cool stuff coming... Eventually
Did you hear how well that starter worked?
@@DuddiesAdventure indeed. Nothing can stop it.
@@DuddiesAdventure damn it Duddie!
Good video 👍
Feel like I learned a few things I didn't know.
Build it and they will come
Of Course you'll comment on the Dodge Whisperer's Video......
I could have sworn at one of your b-day parties, though I was a little drunk, your Mom telling me that the Top Hand was bought for her and it used to be her daily driver.
@@richardgarza3906 yep it was indeed her daily for some time
That sure is a sweet ride. I'm planning on dropping a magnum in my 80 PW, and your fuel injection set up looks to be the ticket. Are you running an in tank pump. Having two tanks I'm not sure if I'll have to much restriction pulling fuel through the switch mechanism, and kill a frame mounted pump
There is alot involved in a fuel injection setup.... mine is not ideal but it does work. Whatever you do definitely dont go cheap, and do an in tank pump if at all possible
I would consider the Holley Sniper setup first over the fitech or summit efi setups
@@TheDodgeWhisperer thanks for your input. I was debating an in tank, get rid of the switch, and just a cheap transfer pump to move fuel from the rear tank. Hell I can barely afford to fill the front tank anyway.
@@alcyr5655 yep that would be a good solution
That truck is so badass I had a 1979 W200 and I loved that truck but had to sell it because of money and storage issues but it's something I regret doing because I don't think I will find another one without paying major loot for one
Yeah we love it. The Top Hand has been in the family since it rolled off the show room floor in 1979!
Awesome rig! I have an old brush truck that im wanting to do something similar on. Do you have a part number for that wilwood master cylinder?
thanks man here is the link www.summitracing.com/parts/wil-261-13270-bk
@@TheDodgeWhisperer Awesome! Thanks for the link. Is there any other socials I can follow you on?
Nice truck . I have the same one. I want a 5 speed and drop the 360. I'm leaning toward 4.o straight 6. Daily driver. I'm looking for reliability. I love the 318. I just don't understand the swap. If you wanted a v8 and you had an old 360. Why would you pick the 318 instead of rebuilding the 360. And I'm asking your advice. I want to swap moters am I wrong for picking a straight 6? 4.0
318 la or magnum are internally balanced which is a plus. the difference between a 360 or a 318 on the trail is negligible with the gearing, and it runs cooler
Nice truck! Stick with the Mopar V8, I'm bored with all the CTD's.
I'm a Texas classic Dodge owner too. 1984 W100, e48 318, 727, np208 and 1/2 tons for now.
Thanks for watching. Mopar or no car
It's about dang time! The people need to know about the Top Hand. To bad technically you are the previous Dodge Owner so you are responsible for all the F@$kery !................ Wait.... What about the starter?!!
Feckers mint bud
@@TheDodgeWhisperer Don't drive into the Mud!
Hey man I’d like to get a willwood master and proportioning valve like yourself on my first gen Cummins. Would you happen to know the part number or where I could get a setup like that? Thanks
this is the part# www.wilwood.com/MasterCylinders/MasterCylinderProd?itemno=261-13270-BK
Nice Truck !
i have som Questions ...
to build my 78 Dodge W150 correct..
i has a Manual transmission ( NP4530 , ration 456 ) it and a np 203 Transvere case and 5 lug Dana44 front and a same smol in the rear..

Now i want to make a Dubbler let the Underdrive from the 203 in it and 205 behind ( works with now modificstion together ? (NP203 underdrive box with the 205 female input ? ) ( Dubbler kit from Offroaddesign)
Next wath im not shure are the correct Axle gear ration ( want arround 38" tiers)
Now wath im not shure are gear
ration .. Becose i want drive Highway speed with low rpm.. arround 75 miles with under 2000rpm.. so i think i need arround 3.55 gears.. ??
but most wath i see drive 4,50 Axle ration ore 4.8 ore higher..
But i think with this high 4.5/4.8 i dont has an gassafe gasmilage..

and with this 2 Underdrives low gear i
with that i think it is enough..

I love the 318 those things you can beat on and they just take it everyone wants the 360 but me I'm a 318 guy that's all my stuff has in it is 318 but my one truck runs the 318's bigger brother the 340 but 318 and 273's are like the slant 6 they are bullet proof unless you really try to send a rod out the side
I love 318s easy power and dont break the bank
What up, what up. So your rear axle is a Dana 60 and not a Dana 70 ? I know they made both for that year 2500.
yes it is a dana 60 out of a 2nd gen 2500 gasser
@@TheDodgeWhisperer Did you have to add the disc brakes or did it come with them from factory? Also did you have to drill your spindles out for the 35 spline shaft's?
What lift on the front springs
6 inch skyjacker
How did you do the twin sticks set up that’s awsum
it weas a kit from www.offroaddesign.com/
Took my 1977 ramcharger to mechanic in town and he took Adam’s didn’t perform work ended up worse . Need help please .
What size tires?
37 x 12.5 R 16.5
cool truck but some of your info is wrong the bed is not from a 40s truck.yes it has a tuff wheel and a buddy seat but that coud have been ordered that way no such thing as a lil red express package
Camaro gas cap… 😂😂😂😂
Easter eggs lol
@@TheDodgeWhisperer 😂😂
